Jon why are you telling all your UK audience to eff off? It's akin to giving an American audience the middle finger. If you just used the pinkie & the one next door that would be fine. And if I had one of these I would be using it to vlog my life I am in a similar position to physics girl. Albeit a little stronger so so on my best days I can drag the 10 litre urine containers to the loo and make food and put in my fridge for the days went I am in too much pain to move and thankfully sleep. Today it's not that bar. So I will have to sleep after writing this. But it's worth it to communicate with people!! Sadly, I dont have a husband to cook for me like Physics Girl, Sadly it's me and shankes pony to do that. On the up side I'm a dee why kay eee (youtube Algorithm has issues with the word) so I am not disappointing some wonderful man as my sister would say! Thanks for the detailed review!!!!
I want to document play time with my kid when we play consoles, boardgames so that he has great memories of his childhood. Insta360 2 seems to fit the bill
Quality... it's ok? This is cool how it can track you with the gimbal. But that background blur at the max looks kinda bad. Also the frame rate, it doesn't seem to be consistent, recording at 24fps in a 60fps timeline or something? It's not smooth at all. 5:20 Woulda liked to see it being used without a bunch of light. But I get it, it's promoted content, so you gotta show it at it's best. Good video, would like to see it used in low light.
I have the original Link and the image is great (both in bright and dim lighting). Easily the best webcam I’ve experienced. I think him turning up the bokeh all the way made it look way worse than it should.
@@eando97 Ahhh thanks for letting me know. Yeah the bokeh was WAY too much, I'd put it at 30-40%. It's really skippy though, I'm guessing it's good for you? When it shows it at 5:20, that doesn't look at all lol.
i woul love to use it on possibly this cam. i do a lot of confrencing and such but i use a gopro with a media unit on it through a capture. would love to simplify the setup
I would love to participate in discord music events and everyone see my face and not an icon. My super old webcam had to be trashed a while back and I havent had an opportunity to get another. Great Review!
I've seen multiple reviews of this, and I can see many dropped frames and choppy performance. Is this an artifact of the recording of the webcam, or is it the way it is?
I would be grateful if I'll win and will definitely use it on video calls with my 2 year old son back home. Long distance communication is a bummer but it's all for the future, hopefully. Keep it up Jon!
I want the Link 2 for its ability to capture with the desktop view mode. i want to make video/ stream for customizing keyboards as its a cool hobby of mine. instead of using a tripod for my phone ill be able to use the Link 2 which is super useful.
I don't know why they don't review so well like the qualities in terms of low light conditions, they all talking about the AI feature that exists on the Link 360
If I won the Link 2, I would test out the white boarding features. As a university classroom techology specialist, I'm always on the hunt to find my wife (and the faculty I support) a good option for zoom/echo 360 recordings that has motion tracking and good whiteboard capture on a budget. Please please please?!?!?
Such a promising product, and no 60fps. Also, its baffling to see that in this day and age these cameras still cannot get the Ai-Background right. The blur on edges of body feels cheap. I'm not so sure if its is really worth the price, unless you just need the tracking feature.
Man it be so exciting. 😅 I would stop using my 3 Logitech webcams, and have it hooked up to my stream. The auto focus when you bring s😅omething that would be cool I'm always trying to do that stupid hand trick that kind of works LOL And the face tracking sounds unreal never used anything with that. But the biggest thing I would use for would be to show my screen the background and the items I have in my background for the backdrop. I have a bunch of Art from streamers and video game/Comic/movies Memorabilia and collectibles. And people love to see it it's difficult to share everyone because I have to take the camera physically off and I move it around while it's cabled in.
Audio and video upgrades are critical to a good virtual meeting experience for your audience. I’d replace my Insta360 Link that I use while away from office and give that the old one away to someone else. 😊
I have the grainiest logitech camera which looks like a joke. I remember one time it cost me scoring a client because yea I looked cheap , it was just the camera man😅 Maybe I am cheap haha. But a great camera would for sure help me in my job as a Web Dev.
If I won - I would really set up a "mom-cam" to make (force?) her to be seen on camera when we do video-chats! She is stubborn as %&¤¤ about not being seen when I call - but if I tell her I won and could rig her laptop with a new cam, she might soften up to the idea that she could move around the room while the cam follows her? ;) Manipulative? Yes! Wonder where I got that trait from? 😜 Thank you for the nice review!
If it would be as good as you say you would record this entirely on it, but it is clearly stuttering. I am not saying it isn't good, but it would be perfect if they could only do that.
Audio is terrible, video is laggy and failed to mention every single PC or Mac will always default to and disable all those features down to 1080p resolution if using it for MS Teams, Zoom, Skype etc....
It looks.. Really bad. It looks super over sharpened, and the borders of the bokeh effect are horrible. It wasn't so bad with all the effects off, though WAY over exposed under the auto settings.
@@annakissed3226 don't be silly... when he's showing the footage around (before, etc) the quality is just fine... when he's showing footage FROM the webcam, is horible... same with the audio... really bad
Excellent Webcam for streaming & professional use, I would primarily use it for streaming & office work, sort of a premium solution without the high cost of a mirrorless camera setup @irahul4sharma

Video starts at 2:18
I want to document play time with my kid when we play consoles, boardgames so that he has great memories of his childhood. Insta360 2 seems to fit the bill
Yeah! Give this guy the camera - that's a far more worthwhile thing to do than mine!
That quality is 🔥Looks SO good!
That quality is awesome!
If I got some of these I would immediately try it on Android. This would be awesome in a mobile streaming setup with a Lavalier mic.
Nice video Jon, the quality of the cameras looked great and the rotating privacy feature is cool!
Record an amazing music tutorial moving all over through the studio and the awesome Insta tracking me 🔥
That's a good idea actually
Online meetings aside, this could be a great too to stream videos for anyone looking to get into streaming or just generally create content
This camera would do wonders for my English Language teaching, and my students in China will love it.
Focus is crazy fast!
the fastest!
my webcam started to have glitches so it's time for an upgrade.
I would finally use my webcam for work meetings as my current one sucks when compared to this new one.
For the 6 x pre-sets , can we adjust the orientation for each of the pre-set?
I stream from my desk a lot, and I use my old phone as a webcam. I would use one of these for streaming. It would probably give a much better result.
Hey off topic, but could you pease share what brand that wood burning fireplace that you see in mirror briefly is? Looks very modern.
Quality... it's ok?

My thoughts exactly, the effects on teams are better ;)
@@Rafatravel Yeah! Agreed!

I will use it for zoom calls!
I would further upgrade my streaming setup for sure.
i woul love to use it on possibly this cam. i do a lot of confrencing and such but i use a gopro with a media unit on it through a capture. would love to simplify the setup
I just got two kittens who are now 11 weeks old. I'd like to see if the Insta360 2 could track them while they play? They are so cute!
Thats a GREAT use!
Having face recognition on my pc is legit premium, thats why i went with the brio 4k, just sit infront of my monitor a boom im logged in.
Do I need to download Elgato Camera Hub to use this with Zoom ? Can I use my Blue microphone with their app?
Rotating privacy feature is nice, but OBSBOT has a better approach with sleep mode and manual lens adjustment.
What’s the difference between this and Tiny 2 Lite? Seems worth comparing.
I would love to participate in discord music events and everyone see my face and not an icon. My super old webcam had to be trashed a while back and I havent had an opportunity to get another. Great Review!

Does it have Windows Hello Support?

Would use this for video calls
Hi
Can I hook it up to my iphone 15pro max
I want the Link 2 for its ability to capture with the desktop view mode. i want to make video/ stream for customizing keyboards as its a cool hobby of mine. instead of using a tripod for my phone ill be able to use the Link 2 which is super useful.
Question, can it perform like obsbot become a real vlog camera working with cell phone instead of only a webcam which have to stack with a computer?
While it's easy to improve on what was done with webcams up to now, I'd say aggressive over-sharpening isn't the best way to do it.
The quality is decent, but for the same price, OBSBOT’s 4K resolution is sharper, and autofocus is faster. Worth comparing
I don't know why they don't review so well like the qualities in terms of low light conditions, they all talking about the AI feature that exists on the Link 360
If I won the Link 2, I would test out the white boarding features. As a university classroom techology specialist, I'm always on the hunt to find my wife (and the faculty I support) a good option for zoom/echo 360 recordings that has motion tracking and good whiteboard capture on a budget. Please please please?!?!?
Ok I guess I owe you a joke too........ What did the camera say to the other camera? “I like your lens, but you need to focus.” .
Such a promising product, and no 60fps.
Also, its baffling to see that in this day and age these cameras still cannot get the Ai-Background right. The blur on edges of body feels cheap.
I'm not so sure if its is really worth the price, unless you just need the tracking feature.

And people love to see it it's difficult to share everyone because I have to take the camera physically off and I move it around while it's cabled in.
Just keep in mind that Insta360’s tracking struggles if you move quickly
I have been looking for a new webcam as I have been using a Logitech c920 for almost 10 years
Logi and Dell has 4k cameras.
Can this be connected to your TV via Apple TV?
I don’t think so since apple tv doesn’t have any usb ports. But continuity camera with iPhone looks nicer.
Insta360 should make their own Dji osmo Pocket.
This is a short osmo pocket. You just have to buy the optional tripod stick or extended selfie stick!
Audio and video upgrades are critical to a good virtual meeting experience for your audience. I’d replace my Insta360 Link that I use while away from office and give that the old one away to someone else. 😊
I use a Pocket 3 as a webcam so I get both a camera and a webcam.
I think it’s time I upgrade my webcam
Agreed!
which one?
Link 2 prob! I want that gimbal
I am a web developer starting a new job... and desperately need a camera update! Can you send it to me?
❤
I have the grainiest logitech camera which looks like a joke. I remember one time it cost me scoring a client because yea I looked cheap , it was just the camera man😅 Maybe I am cheap haha. But a great camera would for sure help me in my job as a Web Dev.
Should have recorded this video with this…
That's what I was thinking. But the video smoothness isn't really smooth at all, it's so skippy, especially when he shows how it can track him.
This price is kind of high compared to other options.
You are right laptop cameras are awful. This type of web camera looks amazing and very versatile. Keeping the fingers crossed for the price hahah🤞.
i would use it for Google meet , I'm not a native English speaker but my job training people English lang.
I’d replace my DSLR? Let’s see.
I would make videos of my kid ❤
The first thing I would do is start recording for my channel😅. Not this one I'm commenting with
What happens if you connect to a ps5 👀🤔 need a video proof
The image quality looks hideous
Elgato Pro 4k can do 60 fps
I would finally be able to retire the logitech c920 webcam using an insta360 link 2. 😂
I will record myself
lmao holy viewbot. I screenshotted the views before and after a browser refresh and his numbers doubled with the same amount of comments
Definitely getting this for my desktop set up!
If I won - I would really set up a "mom-cam" to make (force?) her to be seen on camera when we do video-chats! She is stubborn as %&¤¤ about not being seen when I call - but if I tell her I won and could rig her laptop with a new cam, she might soften up to the idea that she could move around the room while the cam follows her? ;) Manipulative? Yes! Wonder where I got that trait from? 😜 Thank you for the nice review!
And it's cheaper than the first generation.
I will use it to call friends. my integrated webcam is more than trash.
If it would be as good as you say you would record this entirely on it, but it is clearly stuttering. I am not saying it isn't good, but it would be perfect if they could only do that.
Here's a comment
Stream myself playing pinball
Audio is terrible, video is laggy and failed to mention every single PC or Mac will always default to and disable all those features down to 1080p resolution if using it for MS Teams, Zoom, Skype etc....
Yeah the video! I dunno how he could release it like this! 5:20 No low light video examples either.
It looks.. Really bad. It looks super over sharpened, and the borders of the bokeh effect are horrible. It wasn't so bad with all the effects off, though WAY over exposed under the auto settings.
Nuh,,,
btw, looks horible, also sounds quite bad... don't understand why webcams are so bad 😢
No his image looked fine! Your looking at what TH-cam compression did to his video!
@@annakissed3226 don't be silly... when he's showing the footage around (before, etc) the quality is just fine... when he's showing footage FROM the webcam, is horible... same with the audio... really bad
@DamirSecki OK fair point, I could not see the difference myself but I can't trust vision, so I am going with what you say!
Poor image quality for 2024, skip for me
the footage from the webcam seems incredibly choppy. Not exactly a great showcase, so thanks for swaying me away from this overpriced crap
Good thing they have bokeh and then bokeh again but more fake looking
If I had a button that removes all cameras from laptops and tablets, I would press it.
Eh laptop camera is great if you're on the go.
way too overpriced
How do you make holy water?
You boil the hell out of it @ionic.cascade
Lol!!!
