Small tip: When you inevitably lose the cap for the sticks rather sharp 1/4 inch threat, you can replace it with the cap from a standard bicycle tire hose (tube). It wont cover it all the way, but at least you don't make scratches / holes in things.
After watching your vids, you remind me about my 360 activity in 2014 that I stopped because few professional users can share their knowledge like you, and limited hardware, softw too. you're great and inspiring, I'll be back to try 360 again! thanks!
I just ordered my Insta360 X3 yesterday and in June I will be in Sydney for four nights of a 40 night world trip. So that video gave me some inspiration. I only have ordered the 114cm stick though.
Just discovered your channel Ben. Such great help and advice re the Insta 360. Mine arrives today! I’m sure the extended stick will soon follow. Have a great weekend.
Finished a trip around Australia and found a large extension pole great as so many places you are not allowed drones, but the extra height is great. Will have to consider this one.
I just got my Insta360 kit with the extended edition stick and audio adapter. I hope to give 360 tours when I travel. Great video by the way. You’ve earned my sub for your creative mind and daring attitude to just try it and see what happens. “We’ll fix it in post.” Right? LOL!!!
Hi Ben thanks again for sharing great stuff! I have been watching your videos from Mauritius for the last 2 years and have decided to buy the Ricoh Theta Z1 a couple of months ago during these Covid days. I have been able to create a new service in my business and started getting the fist clients. Your videos are gold and you made this science accessible and comprehensive for a non photographer like me. Coupled with the DJI Mavic Air 2 we can now create fantastic immersive 360 tours of the properties on the island which is a game changer for us. You are a genuine and authentic person in your videos and we can really feel that you share knowledge from the bottom of your heart! Keep it up and make us dream 😎
cool tip: if you can do this during a subsolar moment (lahaina noon) you can totally remove yourself from the video and don't have to worry about shadows extending from the bottom of the frame.
So I have to ask. If there are threads in the bottom and threads for the camera on top, can you "double stick" and get really crazy? Looking at you Ben!
Hi Ben, I live in Sydney and just got my first 360 camera (X3) with the bike accessory kit. I’m new to using it and a new RU-vid creator. I’m happy to take you for a ride around the city to get some 360 footage from a bike prospective . (I have two folding Brompton bikes)
Thanks, very informative video. Have you tried shooting drone-like videos at shorter lenghts of the stick? I'm wondering if at 2m or 1,7m the shots would be still good or if it´d look too close.
No, but that is a sign that your footage is the wrong aspect ratio, or resolution. Make sure you export at the same resolution as the original footage 👍
Hi, I hope they would accept payments for waiting list rather than having one to revisit website to see if its in stock. and its hard to find if you dont have the right URL. liked your videos, would it work (editing) for Z1,
I wonder if you can get a good footage of fireworks from Macquarie’s chair in botanical gardens. I tried using Go 2 but the low light was so shit that I ended up using my phone
I got my extended stick a few weeks. I recorded some EUC riding. People...Be careful handling the stick. I allmost smashed my Insta360 One R against a pole.
Another great video Ben! What's the state of 3D 180 in 2021? Impossible to get the insta360 Evo, hard to find the Vuze XR, insta360 One R mod still not released... Is there nothing below the price of the Z Cam K1 Pro? 😬
Hey Ben will this stick work on insta 360 one rs one inch addition if not then which one should I buy like extended version who work on insta 360 one rs one inch addition
You have lots of experience with 360 cameras, I'm on the fence of buying one but I can't decide between Insta360 One R Twin Edition and Insta360 One X2. Any good advice from you to make my decision easier? TIA
Hey Ben. How do u start and stop the video when the camera is miles away ? Some kind of button or remote? Would be annoying to retract the whole thing everytime
@@BenClaremont nah that is not a reasonable solution. U aren't opening ur phone and the app and all that each time. Especially when doing an activity or sport
@ben Claremont how do you make this camera-rides with an still-360-image ? which software can you use for this.. still-images - taken in RAW and worked on in lightroom - look better than film - but how can i use that 360 images in a film? thanx for tips !
Toto, I think we are not in Kansas anymore! Toto: No Dorothy, we are next to the Sydney Opera House, Australia and people are staring at you for spinning around with a long stick pointed at the sky!!!
