Fantastic video!!! 👌 I have this camera also but tend to use the GoPro. But I’m interested in the moto mount. Buying it now for when I’m back to cycling. 🚲
Hey Thanks Matt! I had a lot of fun making it. I think the mount is worth it, only thing is it’s a bit heavy, so I don’t use it all the time and kind of “plan out” when I use it. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
I've been using releasable cable ties to just mount the selfie stick only various parts of my frame. Even tying it on the Chain stays backwards or at an angle secured on both the chain stay and seat stay (obviously on the non drive side), plenty of options. To make it grip the frame a bit better I added some rubber between the frame and the selfie stick also protects my frame
i´ve watched many reviews on this camera b4 deciding to buy it, but this one is by far the best video so far. very practical, showing exactly what i wanted (the mounts and gears and whatnot while actually riding a bike rather than only the technical geeky aspects of the one x2). as soon as my camera arrives, i´m sure i´ll try all the examples of footage you showed on this video, patrick. thanks a lot! keep up the good work.
Thank you Patrick for this video as a fellow Cyclist, I am thinking of buying the Insta360 ONE X2 and was thinking the Bike Bundle should do it, however I love that Motorcycle Mount its solid which I need, so I think I will go for the Motorcycle Bundle as it will stay on the stem or seat post fixed. I have a GoPro which remains on my Chest most of the time so that covers the front angle instead of me constantly stopping and moving mounts around. I also love that free style mode holding the selfie stick high up, thus it looks like a drone shot. Brilliant video Patrick, really helped me out here.
Hey Punjabi Cyclist, check out my latest video with a new mount made of the new bike mount that just came out, it’s fairly inexpensive and might be a worthy addition to your shooting arsenal ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0VVnEbgam34.html
Really good video man, been wondering about this for a while thanks to all the footage you upload on instagram with this camera! could you also share how you added the riding info at the end with the RPM, power, heart rate, etc!
Hey Seb thank you! 360 cam in my opinion is a worthy spend for the content you can get : ) For the overlays I use the Garmin Virb app on mac, @thevegancyclist made a grea video explaining this - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v4Xd-Ozi4So.html beware that the app is SUPER GLITCHY and awful to use lol
awesome deepdive! with this amount of accessories, where do you store them when not in use? do you have a preferred bag like a top tube or stem bag to store them?
For variety, I would def recommend the Moto Mount; To be honest though, nowadays I just got used to filming 90% of the time just holding the pole in my hand, or sitting on it on the saddle ahah. I do still use the moto mount or chest mount sometimes
That was a detailed video. Appreciate the work mate. Was thinking of buying a GoPro since I'm cycling here in Da Nang, Vietnam which is beautiful. Insta 360 seems better.
Hey thanks! They both are great cameras, with their strong points. Tbh the only advice I can share is to try them out and see which one you like the most. One thing that I didn’t mention in the video is that the insta’s audio quality, if that matters to you, is absolute GARBAGE 😂 cheers
How you enter and display data, such as cadence, speed, heart rate, and the like. From your sensors, to your video? Is there any Insta360 recognition, or any specific filter?
I have been using a oneR for a few years now. I use hte invisible SS and also for gravel a bite mount with a short unicorne pole and have had really good success. I dont use the mounts becasue I will never need more than a few secods of any clip.
Hey Andrew! I’m starting to realize that too… the mount is a big hassle, like you I kind of always end up using 3-5 second clips. The only clips I might use longer are the POV shots, but I discovered I can just put the Insta360 between my chest and my hr strap and it works perfect as a chest mount 😂 Have a great day! ✌️
Thanks for the tips. How did you fix the stitch line? I tried it while riding but the stitch line is so bad as soon as I rotate the fov to front view.:(
I referred to your link for the new third person handle bar bike mount, how is it compared to the motor cycle mount? I am looking to use on road bike mainly. Thank you 😊
Handlebar mount pros: easy to use, light, easy to carry - cons: limited angles. For the price it’s 100% worth it to have Moto mount pros: a lot of different angles and creative options, good build quality - cons: very heavy, hard to carry, I always end up not taking it tbh unless I need to get some specific shots. Have a great day Ashton!
I tried using the motorcycle mount with the selfie stick but the base of the selfie stick unscrewed itself after a short time. I mean the actual base of the selfie stick, not that it unscrewed from the motorcycle mount. How did you stop that?
@@PatrickDelorenzi Thanks. I've emailed their support now. They were quite quick at getting back and asked for pictures and to describe how I've used it. I've been fully transparent with them as I thought maybe I'm not using it for what it was made for (the rear computer game style shot). If they confirm it's a fault with my stick and I can go ahead filming all sorts of shots when I get the new one then I'll be very happy.
Hey Stephan! Battery in general is the only thing that I don’t really like in this camera, just because the battery is pretty bulky. A GoPro you can have multiple batteries and it’s just a little rectangle, in this case a second battery is gonna be around 2-3x the size of a GoPro battery. But regarding battery life, for general day to day use like film something on a ride, film at the beach, it actually lasts pretty long. I usually get thru a whole day. If I’m filming a lot on the bike, like 3-4 minutes segments, the battery will drain kind of fast but not dramatically. Overall I’m pretty satisfied with the battery performance
Hello, thank you for sharing this great video. I am commuting and want to make sure I can film the front and back, as we have many crazy drivers here. Also, I am cycling home in the dark many times. Would you still recommend it?
@@romaric9874 I did buy it. It is 100 times better than the cheap camera I had. the stabilization is amazing. It is ok for the evening but will need to still try to change to the night setting, Just learning. daylight is great quality. Night is ok.
@@katscraft I bought one too. Like you, night OK, day great. I will make some test next days. By night it's hard to read car's ID in loop recording with 30 fps. I will try better settings.
nice video ..guys can you please help me out which one should i buy insta x3 or gopro11 or osmo action 4 ...my requirement is for motovlog and travel vlogs ..but im worried the quality of insta is only 1080 p in 360 mode ..can we upscale the footage to 2.7k or 4k without compromising the quality again ...kindly suggest thanks
check out the official insta360 fb group a lot of people have asked the same question facebook.com/groups/Insta360OneCommunity I would go with the X3 store.insta360.com/product/x3?insrc=INRZXYB&KOL&PatrickDelorenzi&X3Launch
I would say pretty good - continuous recording around 1:15h, but recording here and there thru a ride I can easily use 1 battery for a whole day ride. You can swap them out yes if you wanted to bring 2 with you
@@PatrickDelorenzi Thanks for reply. I just wonder how does the video look like in that case. How much of the field of view of the camera is covered by the body and hands? And by the way, how good does it work in low light conditions (at night etc.)?
The quality on 360 vid is lower because 5.7k is spread out on a 360 degree video - the more the video is zoomed out, the higher the quality because it retains more pixels in the image. 4K quality in single lense mode is comparable to 4K on the GoPro though I believe
Ciao! Vorrei prendere la mia prima action camera e mi interessa molto la insta one x2. Per iniziare pensavo di prendere lo stick e la cinghia pettorale (che ne pensi?) però avrei una domanda a proposito di quest'ultimo: serve un accessorio per montare la one x2 sul chest mount? Prenderei quello originale ma se hai un consiglio a riguardo lo apprezzerei molto.. PS abito in trentino e faccio mtb su starada sterrata e sentiero. Buon anno nuovo e grazie! :)
Hola, si ti serve un aggancio che va da GoPro a vite filettata del cavalletto, c’è ne sono parecchi online e funzionano tutti; prendine una a caso su Amazon così se non funziona puoi rimandarla! Ps se riesci prendi la x3
Love the review! Is there a difference on motorcycle mount to the bicycle mount? They have this “cycling kit” i’m wondering which one to get. I usually do road or gravel riding.
Hola my friend - so the difference is the cycling kit is lighter, but only allows for a shot from the front; the motorcycle mount is heavier, but sturdier and allows for more flexibility being that you can angle it to the right and left
thanks for the vid! 2 questions though. 1. i bought the cycling kit, the mount and pole are different from what you have in the vid. why? 2. the pole screw to the mount and very easy gets loose. your pole looks like the insta360 invisible stick, i don't think it comes with the cycling kit.
Hey Kevin! This is the “Moto mount” (that I don’t really use anymore) and the standard Insta360 selfie stick. Damn, as far as the pole screw getting loose I don’t know to be honest, it doesn’t happen to me 🙁 maybe tightening it MEGA?
@@PatrickDelorenzi thank you for your reply Pat! right you did mention in the vid that it's moto mount, it the vid name and the link are for the cycling mount. cheers!
New to the 360 cam world here. I just got the one rs and I'm looking to mount it vertically using a small mount on either my handlebar or stem. My noob question is, which way should I point the lens? If forward, it sees more(?) Or zero stitch issues to the front, but more surface area for the wind. But if the lens is facing to the sides, it's a little more aero than the other way 😂 but if I'm on the wheel of someone, would it stitch them incorrectly? Or does it even matter? Thanks!
Hey 0 views! I usually point the camera out in the front with one lens facing up and one lens facing down - if I’m pointing it out the front and to one side, I point one lens towards th inside and one lens to the outside (so vertical). Tbh I don’t think it makes a difference haha
Yea, but actually another way to do it is just slide the Insta360 with the pole attached, between your hr strap and your chest. And voila, it fits perfect like a chest mount (almost)
Question on the out front & behind the bike mounting… do you have a carbon frame, handlebars, seat post? I am considering an X3 & using these mounts, but i have concerns on damaging my carbon components.
Hi, I have a carbon seatpost, but not carbon bars. Honestly I would mount the out in front mount no problem on carbon bars, but I def would not mount the Moto Mount to a carbon bar / stem. For the behind the bike mounting, currently I either use the dedicated back mount (plastic) or I simply put the stick on the saddle pointing back, wrap some Velcro around the saddle+stick, and just sit on it
Awesome… Appreciate the feedback! Your videos have gone a long way in convincing me to choose the X3 over the new Hero 11. I think eventually I may get both, but being a first time action camera consumer, it’s clear the X3 will get me the most bang for my buck to start. Thanks!
Hello! Any fast speed as recommended by insta 360 (i have a Sandisk) and be sure to format it often, as in speed of writing will decrease and you will get some errors as the card gets more full / written and re written on
Fun tech. But I find the amount of distortion in the clips too distracting…especially elongated limbs. Loving the GoPro with magnetic mounts to quickly swap placements on bike.
You can choose the amount of distortion from the app - it can be zero or a higher value - I personally like a bit of distortion because i liked the late Ty evans skate films that were filmed on ultra 16:8 fisheye that had a similar effect to what the insta does
Thanks! I'm doubtful with the 3rd person bike mount it looks like the pole gonna break when riding on uneven roads. So the sturdy setup is motor bundle mount and the invi selfie stick.
I think it’s a great choice 👌 and you can also set it up in many different angles, to the side and more; only thing to think about is the little bit of extra weight, but in my opinion, the weight is worth it because you have such a more versatile mount 👍
Hello Patrick, just wanted to say thank you for helping me with my Motorcycle Mount Bundle for my ONE X2 purchase this video was the catalyst and I have given a big shout out to you in my unboxing and review video here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3mazvwS1WBI.html
Thanks for the video. The camera is great for 360 work, but the image quality is just terrible, very small dynamic range, shadows are just black, weird oversaturated colours etc. 😔 My 5 year old phone has better image.
