1) You blew my mind with the tripod feet. I’ve had it for MONTHS and had no clue it did that.
2) Ulanzi makes a quick release system called the Hummingbird. SUPER convenient when going from mount to mount, especially when using the Ulanzi mount for the wireless go. Having to fiddle with it each time you change mounts get annoying real fast..
Great video and very informative - thanks dude!
Great video! Do you use other lens protection then only the cap?
For the F22 quick release system, did you get the one specifically for Insta360, or did you get the generic F22 QR system?
Two must-have items that you didn't list are; 1 - the X3 Sticky Lens guards to keep those pretty lenses scratch free, and 2 - a clamp mount like the ULANZI Super Clamp Camera Clamp Mount. This mount allows you to clamp onto railings, handlebars, poles, boards, etc. and adds a lot of mounting options for your camera. Amazon sells one with a 1/4-20 ball head adaptor for about $20.
I have two of the ulanzi clamps, well one ulanzi and two another brand. The combination is [almost] life-changing heh.
and no distortion?
The sticky lens guards completly ruin the picture either you get the big protection or none
@@r00kiet80I agree completely about the lens guards. The only time it might make sense is when shooting in a very sandy environment, where the flying sand can scratch and ruin the lens.
@@r00kiet80i have not tried the lense protectors, however, the X3 has a setting in post editing that allows you to choose a lense guard setting, that “claims” to get rid of those lense distortions in your videos
I forgot to ask in my previous comment, Is there a quick release mount that attaches to the bottom of the Insta360 x3 carbon fiber extended edition selfie stick? I have a Falcam F22 but I can't seem to keep it tightened. There are a couple of mounting holes so is there a particular quick release that works/fits or do I have use blue Loc-tite? Thanks again for your very educational videos.
Thanks for the video! Im debating whether to get the camera over the Hero 11 but its the 360 angle that gets me excited. How do you find it using with surfing? Any trouble with salt water? Do you got some videos you could share while surfing?
Holy God, this is so much and I love it all.
I’m really going to go heavy come 2024 with the new iPhone Pro, Rode Wireless Pro, probably a version of the Smooth gimbal, and the X3 for my off-roading/overlanding and hiking videos.
I need a 360 in car camera, I need stable footage on off terrain (hiking or off roading) and I need the freedom to hook up a wireless mic system for me and my wife.
Falcon… nice! Can’t wait to see what you do with all the new stuff coming out because the new gear and outdoor potentials just got bigger
HUGE video. Just got one X3 and one GO 3. Thank you so much!
Great video, just a quick question, is the quick release useable with gopro mounts? I have a mount bolted on my bike that I wanna use the 360 on
Great info. Do you happen to know if the dive kit bundle they are offering right now includes a battery? I'm not seeing that it does. Also, when you plug that external quick reader into your phone does all the footage then go into your phone or can you pick and choose what does and will it still stay on the SD card if you want it to? What do you recommend to protect the lenses while filming? I know they offer the sticky covers but they still show in footage right?
Thanks! Your video helped me figure out the accessories that would work best for my needs. Thanks again!
Great video again David, I must admit, the quick release isn't something I even thought of, but will be looking into straight away. I've been hunting for the best suction cups for doing external 3rd person car shots and I'll see if I can get the falcam ones here in Scotland.
I use RAM mounts for a lot of my gear as I used to work on military sites designing and deploying sonar technology and everything from RAM mounts was great at holding up against the harsh seas. Camera mounts to Laptop mounting gear, I've put my faith in their stuff quite a bit over the years.
Another pole mount I like is the longer fixed position carbon fibre poles. Just really good for car stuff I do too be honest, wouldn't be sure where you could use it anywhere else. I just need it for the rigidity it provides while going at high speeds.
Love me some RAM mounts! Those things are super solid! As for the solid carbon fiber poles, they’re for sure the most ideal for longer pole mount setups because they don’t bow at all or sway as much. I just tend not to use them because they’re harder to pack along for an adventure. Perfect for car mounts though!
Great vids! Could u please tell me your opinion… do I need the quick reader to send files to my iPhone 14 pro? Is that the only way to do it ? Do u suggest this camera over the One RS for surfing? Have you used lens covers on the X3 and would that work for surfing? Looking for the simplest/best set up for a trip to Indo….thanks in advance!🙏🏽🙏🏽
Great, thorough video! Really entertaining and informative 👏
Is there a wrist strap to be able to secure the selfie stick when out on the water in case you lose grip?
Great Guy, great explaining. Thank you for that bro!
Do you have a go to accessory for surfing? A 3rd person back mount for water sports would be cool but I can't find one.
Great video! I do not have a Insta 360 x3 but, I do wanna say those are some nice accessories.
Another great review!
I’m just about to start out in the action camera scene. I’m mainly going to use it in my jetski and boat. Although I can get awesome shots with the X3, I’m wondering if I should start out with the GoPro? I mainly worry about the ruggedness and the ability to add a float case, like I can for the GoPro. But the shots would likely be cooler with the X3! This is a hard decision!
Great video! Really wanting to pull the trigger on the X3 but those lenses and how sensitive they are is worrying me. I’ve also heard there warranty/care isn’t that good to help cover it. I’ve always had GoPro but these shots looks so much nicer. Are the lenses really something I need to worry about?
Awesome vid, dude! Thank you!
Thank you 🤝🏻
Hi David. Thx for sharing your expertise. That video will be helpful for many with all beside comments you did. 😉
I also bougth the remote control with GPS tagging which is very useful for my use on motorcycle. It can be mounted on the handle bars to start stop camera whilst driving without loosing focus on traffic. Also useful for other applications with the 3m selfie stick for example.
Do you know anywhere to get lens protectors
Always informative! Thank you! Is the quick mount you mention any better than the Insta360 quick mount?
The Insta360 version is pretty awesome as well, but the Falcam system has a bit more versatility as far as the amount of accessories they have for it. I use it on all of my big cameras as well. Both are super solid though!
Great video. First time viewer here 🙋♀️. As soon as you said you’re a snowboarder i instantly subscribed 🤟
Hi there, thank you for the video
For underwater does the invisible selfie stick can be used and is it waterproof and what is the best way to shoot underwater
Awesome video David. We just purchased an Insta 360x3, and really appreciate the informative video. 👌👌👌
Thx for the vid David, just one Q that's probably asked all the time - do you have to use Insta360 Selfie Sticks for an invisible shot of the stick, or can you use any mono pod? The Insta360 stick look like nice piece's of kit, but ..... Thanks again.
Another great video David,thanks. What is your opinion about the x3 Sticky Lens Protectors, screen protectors or any others that you have or are currently using?
I'm for them when you know your camera is in real danger of being dropped or getting hit. I use them a lot out at the desert to film dune buggies. I know the sand is going to blast those lenses, so I stick them on there for things like that👍
Thanks David, you are charming.
I love quick-release as much as anyone (also have large mirrorless cameras) but every join you have in the loop weakens the hold overall. Perhaps not noticably, depending on the usage, but try mounting a quick-release on a ground-mounted tripod, eg. even quality ball-heads designed for heavier mirrorless cameras, will not stand *perfectly* upright and motion-free with an X3 at the top of a 3m extended stick. More important than fast release is minimizing sway.
That’s a solid reason to go for the F22 system over some other quick releases out there. The tolerances on the F22 are tight, so there’s almost no movement when locked in👍
Just got my Insta360 yesterday! I'm so excited to use it!
You’re going to love that thing!!!
Great video!
Thanks….that was helpful.
I'd add some kind of super clamp (maybe the smaller Smallrig version) as another good addition, especially for things the suction cup won't work on, as well as an alternative for mounting on a bike/motorcycle/autogyro.
Super clamps are super useful! I use them for a ton of other mounts, but for some reason haven’t used them much with the Insta360. I’ll get testing with it though, seems like it would be ideal!
It's crazy how almost every part you have I already had before watching this video. I have a power bank 5 batteries and plenty other things that you have but the only thing I didn't have was that quick release. I just ordered 5 of them after watching this video
Good video. On accessor I would never use (not slagging your video) is the quick reader. I don't edit on a phone. I edit on a PC or Mac. The Quick Reader is an Android/iPhone accessory only. David was clear it was phone only but not part of my workflow. The Falcam F22 Quick Release Plate look sweet.
Great video from a great human, im actially designing accessories
I bought a whole lot of gear including the super large selfie stick. What type of case or bag do you use?
Can you use the falcam quick release on a insta 360 chest strap mount?
Thank you so much. Very interesting video 👍.
When waterskiing , do you use a floatation accessory for your 360?
Do you have any bungee or wrist cord when surfing or just hold it freehand?
do you need the actual mic adapter from insta360 x3
or will a mic adapter from your local store work?
Thanks!!!
Love your videos, man! It's fun, on point and very informative! A subscriber from the Philippines. More power to you!
Love you watching and hopefully one day soon we’ll come out there to visit the Philippines! It’s high on our travel list!!!
@@DavidManningvlog we’ll be on the lookout for that!!
also had the 360 live on top of the standard selfie stick forever but then I discovered the power selfie stick - approx same form factor as the standard but with button controls and a built-in back-up battery - only drawback was that the USB-C cable between the stick and camera was just too short when a instant release mount is also fitted - got a slightly longer cable from my local computer shop
You got a link?
I’m going to be traveling to Tahiti & I want to be careful that I don’t fry out my insta360x3. What do you recommend for recharging the batteries? I have the insta 360 quick charge battery hub that charges 3 at a time but what best to plug it into to charge? Is there a power bank or something that may work for all my electronics? Thank you
david you are best man love watching your ideas
Well you’re the best for watching!!!
can we connect cardo edge to x3 for audio ?
📀💿 an extra MicroSD card is always good to have
Imagine you are about to fill something awesome only to discover whatever awesome you were filming all day filled up the card you have ... No problem just pop in the backup microSD card 👍👍👍
Do you put that in the luggage or handcarry when flying?
David, I have a few Questions, please.
If you have the Falcam quick release on the camera's body can you use other things with it, like a chest harness or do you have to remove it?
Can you use the Quick rlease with a wrist strap??
Thank you for your hard work in helping us1
What SD card do you recommend and from where? I don’t want a knock off and need something for travel to Tahiti. Not sure what size or sandisk extreme or pro? Thabjs
Ok, not saying im going to do it, but could you connect the long selfie stick to another long selfie stick? At what point does the bow if the invisible stick enter the frame?
Hey David! I just watched your amazing video, as always. Your content is incredibly entertaining. I wanted to ask you about the Insta360 X3. Does its resolution allow for clear visibility of license plates while on the road, just in case of any incidents? If so, can you provide an example video or photo captured from the video? Also, is there a solution to the mount becoming loose while riding and needing to tighten it?
Great questions. I was wondering the same things.....as a cyclist myself.
Those falcam seems to be awesome, but I can't find a backpack attachement(similar to peak design) do you know if something similar exists? That would be the perfect mount for me to setup an insta360 on my paraglider :)
I love my insta 360 so much, I made a mount that fits in your pocket so you don’t have to hold it. So many interesting shots. You can make one for about $10.
You have a video on it anywhere?
@@DavidManningvlog I’m making one now. I will post it in a few days. It’s so simple to make too.
Excellent video!
Can you use the Quick Reader with USB-C?
Great to know they have a wya to attach a wireless mic. I was wondering about that.
Is there a good lens guard for those lenses. That really freaks me out. I'm so afraid to screw those up.
I'm a senior cyclist and I want to use while cycling as I was assaulted about a month ago.
One accessory I would like is a safety tether. I have a GoPro mount on my helmet but I don't trust it. If it comes off, I lose the camera.
Very very Useful video thank u
There IS a DJI specific receiver mount available for the X3 now. Its 3D printed, so probably isn't as strong as the Insta360 product, but it IS fully invisible.
Its called the Xmount 360
I have it it actually mounts up really solid
Awesome man, I’ll check it out! Kind of wild that Ulanzi hasn’t made one that’s for the DJI mic with how popular that thing is!
@@DavidManningvlog yeah Im surprised Ulanzi havent picked up on it too! They'd sell trucks of them if they made it out of aluminium (or whatever they make the pt-20 out of!)
how about lens guard? should i have that's accessories??
Nice to follow your channel. I'm interested in how you explain that. My best regards from Indonesia
At 10:30 in the vid about the bike mount “ the longer you make the pole the more wrang wrang wrang you get😂” great vid btw
I find a dive case for under water helped with stitching issues.
If you’re filming underwater, you for sure need the dive case!
Can't wait to see this tiny camera in action.
Does the invisible mic mount work with the aluminum cage holder?
Will the Quick Reader work to transfer files to an iPad and does the Insta360 app behave the same on iPad as it does on iPhone?
Wouldn't the horizon lock feature remove the wobble from using the full extension of the selfie sticks on the bike mounts?
What I'm impressed is the selfie stick are not being mark as extendable baton can easily get it through airport security with no issues I use to have the twist and lock version. I was hoping you do something ridiculous like the extended selife stick combined with the normal selife stick to get it to even crazy heights.
I’m seriously looking at getting this camera. Good video, good choices. I’m a photography professional. It’s what I do and have done for decades, but I’ve never seen a camera or lens that doesn’t come with a lens cap. Weird.
My husband just picked up an x3. I still use the 2. Does the quick reader work with the 2 or just the 3?
It’s specific to the X3 if you’re trying to mount it to the side of the camera, but if you use it like I do, you can take the SD card from either of your cameras, pop them in the reader, then plug that into your iPhone👍
Whats better between the falcan? Falcon? System...or the snap mount? Like is it safer? Faster? Thanks!
Snap mounts are incredible and still my favorite GoPro mount solution. But the X3 doesn’t really fit in them well. For the X3, the Falcam f22 system is incredible🙌
4:19 I guessed it! I yelled out falcam quick release mounts... 😂 Any piece of gear that I have with a 1/4 mount would mostlikely have one installed 😅
They’ve changed almost every aspect of how I shoot things with cameras these days🙌
Where can i buy the suction cup mount??
I would add a ground stake/spike to the list!
You can buy them but I'm cheap so I ground down an old screwdriver to a point and epoxied a 1/4 20 threaded rod to the handle end. To me it's just so convenient to screw the selfie stick to it and stick it in the dirt, grass, or even cracks in wood, rocks, or busted up concrete and the 360 cameras are very forgiving when the angle isn't exactly straight up and down.
That’s super clever! I wonder if I could find a spike that’s designed for tripods to screw into the bottom of the invisible selfie stick. Something predesigned for this!
OK I like the Action 3 but I'm a little obsessed with the X3.
What size magic arm is that? 7 or 11”?
David, will this record when plugged into a usb power bank please.
I cycle a lot and my rides are 3 -6 hours long and cannot afford to stop to change batteries, especially when racing in a group.
What do you use for the motorcycle?
I race rc cars and would like to know if I place a tri pod in the center of the track away from traffic with a 360 degree camera can people see and follow any car they choose?
So every accessory is a must have accessory. Got it
I reallly ❤❤❤❤ this. I hope to get one when I am monitized. thank for your video.
This might be a dumb question. I like your Rode mic adapter set up. Does the X3 record audio if you're not using the Rode mic?
Yep, the built in mics are still really good, but like all action cameras, doesn't do well in windy conditions. That's where the external mics come in👍
@DavidManningvlog awesome. Thank you for the quick reply. I do run the DJI mic so maybe I can find a better mount for it so it can be secure like your Rode set up.
@@DavidManningvlogI just received my Falcam quick connection pieces. There is a metal plate with a couple screws in a bag. Do you know what it is for? There are no instructions. Top notch quality. Thank you for recommending them.
I know the X3 is waterproof, but will it float? What if you drop the thing in water, will it sink? Thanks for helping me with this.
Yep, will still sink! 100% should be rocking a wrist strap attached to the pole underwater👍
U could leave the tripod on at all times to extend your basic selfie stick, as well ...
Solid!
What’s going on with the insta 360 go2? Looks like they are discontinuing it. I love my 360 go2. I went on line to pickup a couple more of the hat clips and no cameras. My buddy put himself on the notification list when back in stock about 2 months ago. Usually they don’t discontinue until a new model comes out. Is it 360 go2 no more? 😕🙁☹😢😭………….
I want to use it outside of my 4x4 while off-roading. I'm worried about the lens. Any advice?
Hi my friend! Please tell me, I want to add photos and videos from my iphone to the 360 video clip… But I did not find the opportunity to add the material to the 360 application! Is it possible?
How did you do your intro video overlay with your name? I've checked if you had ever made a video on this but didn't see it. Looking to do something similar.
Video on something similar coming soon!
I'll get it soon and unfortunately I could use almost everything. Unfortunately, that will be very, very expensive. Can you get this things cheaper somewhere?
This camera is just a gateway to so much more spending. Lens guard, protective case, action selfie stick, bigger memory card, extra battery, mounting hardware. I’m not saying it’s not worth it but those that are in the market for this camera should keep in mind of all the additional expenditures that you will most likely incur.
Thoughts on the sandisk extreme Pro. Better? or doesnt matter?
I think they’re overkill. You will get faster transfer rates to your computer when uploading, but you won’t see performance improvement while in the camera
How to mount the X2 to a rafting helmet?
No lens guard?
