Insta360 X5 was introduced
The device uses dual 1/1.28-inch large sensors. Since these sensors have more light collection capacity compared to the X4, they give clearer results in both day and night shots. The AI chip system, on the other hand, creates uncompressed and clean images in all lighting conditions.
Another prominent innovation of the X5 was the ‘InstaFrame’ feature. This feature allows producing selfie or front camera-focused videos in flat format from 360-degree images. Thus, content producers can both quickly share content for social media and edit raw 360-degree images in detail later.
Insta360 describes the X5 as ‘the most durable 360-degree camera’ they have ever produced. The device’s lenses are protected by scratch-resistant glass and can be replaced without tools. The body is water resistant to 15 metres (49 ft). There is also a built-in wind filter to improve sound quality in windy environments.
