Recommendations for Reliable 180 3D and 360 VR Cameras?

What do you mean by 360 “VR”? Usually that means 360 3D, and the reference on a budget would be an Insta360 Pro2. But if your budget is under the R5C, forget about the Pro2, too. If you meant “flat” 360, no clue. I’d say Insta360 X5 has the better software and manages better the overheat, DJI Osmo t

What you think about this price?

DJI Osmo 360 vs. Insta360 X5 vs. GoPro MAX2 vs. Akaso 360 Insta360 X5 vs Akaso 360 Action Camera - Budget versus Expensive From these reviews, I think the image quality from Akaso is on par with GoPro Max 360 first generation, a very old 360 camera.

Gopro max 2 vs insta X5 (vs osmo 360)

I'm no GoPro fanboy... I fucking hate the company and their shitty software. I also love the Insta360 software. That said, the X5 "8K" is fake. It's not a true 8K, it's an upscaled 5.7k I believe. Do with that information what you will. Not having seen any real reviews on the MAX2 yet, who can say i

Is the action 6 noisy vs the 5pro?

The mids are lifted more on the 6 and that is what gives some the impression of soft/noise. My kit includes a Hero 12,13,max2,nano, osmo 360, and the action 6 along with DJI air 3s.. The 6 gives the best image but GoPro color science is better straight out of the camera. A short amount of editing ge

GoPro Max 2 360 footage editing

The DJI studio app is free and a clone of insta studio which is free too. My workflow is usually batch edit with GoPro player to .mp4 and then if I don’t want to use a lot of the key framing I just use FCP to get the scene framed, cut, and edited. If I want to do some fun spherical framing I export

First 360 camera

DJI is well know to improve quickly, they have a significant amount of engineers and programmers on hand. I've watched the app and camera go through a few great changes since. The problem is that the lenses aren't as simple to replace as the X5/Max2. But at this time if you are travelling mostly in

360 cameras meta in 2025 and 2026

Osmo360 & Max2 dropped in the last weeks/months. X5 has been out a 5 months. The X3 came out in 9/2022, X4 in 4/2024, X5 in 4/2025 - the X5 was an accelerated release, not part of their normal cadence. It fixed their biggest issue, the replaceable lenses. None will get a full refreshed before the Ka

GoPro Max 2 360 footage editing

I’ve been using a GoPro Max and more recently Max2 with FCP for years, though am not enormously advanced. I always batch export with the GoPro player, horizon level on but world lock off. Then I do all editing in FCP. Annoyingly exporting a 360 file in equirectangular format sets the output clip cre

Skiiers, what camera do you use?

This is a really hard question. First all of the major cameras are expensive BUT more importantly you need to figure out what you really want. Inconspicuous is interesting. Where were you thinking of mounting the camera? There are helmet mounts but those are pretty obvious. You could do a chest moun

choice of 360 cameras

I don’t know how heros work tbh. I’m more specialized in 360 cam, as the only interested aspect for me is the possibility to mod them into VR180. So.. i can’t say anything about how GH are working, never even saw them in action 🙂 Max2 is my first GoPro camera, and compared to insta, DJI and Kandao,
