InstaX3 vs X4 - 4K Single Lens (Scooter)
zhlédnutí 160Před 4 měsíci
It looks like I had the X4 in a bit wider FOV than the X3 but here is another evening side-by-side. This was recorded at dusk (well, after "sunset" time). Per request, I have motion video, then more stationary as I waited at an intersection, then at the very end in front of a cellphone store. Automode is really a poor choice for bright-against-dark.

Gopro 12 vs insta x4 single lens mode
change language to spanish
I saw your review on Amazon too
I don't actually understand what is happening when I select from these at record time. As far as I can tell, the camera is recording full 360 spherical no matter which you select, at which point the FOV is simply a function of how cropped into the spherical footage you want to be. This is something that can be dynamically selected in post processing though, so what is even happening when we select it at record time? Is it just to determine what shows up in the screen while recording? Is it just to determine the baseline FOV that is used as a starting point in post processing?
Exactly what I was thinking. I still have no idea what the differences are.
This is exactly the footage I was looking for. I bought the X4 but was concerned about the fisheye look. So I should film in dewarp? Or is there an adjustment in the software to dewarp footage already shot? Thanks for making this comparison. Very helpful.
Its your setting
Where can you switch between the FOVs on Insta360 Studio (desktop).
Do you know how to unlock the speed on the gotrax nephele?
Any updates on if you have used it recently
nice
Wow, X3 looks much better to me. The cars are nice and sharp, they look blurry on the X4 @ 8k
I am going on a long motorcycle trip with my X4. What settings would you recommend as a set and forget? I am not a big fan of the fish eye look that I tend to get. I also find that when I am going through a heavily tree covered area that the tops of the trees are blurred. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
In the description of the bike on Amazon, it says three modes-normal pedal, pedal assist, and all electric. But you say it has no pedal assist. Does this mean if I engage the motor the bike will automatically go 15 mph?
Which is the best for editing sportbike videos???
I personally HATE the warped fish-eye look of action cameras and 360 cameras, but if you want to get more in than just what is right in front of you, pick a wide angle view you like.
Wondering about the throttle. Can I control it? Slow I hope?
Yes, it is a normal throttle - slow to fast.
may i ask u film in 8k, 5.7k or 4k?
I believe these were all recorded as 380 videos in 8K mode. Keep in mind, that is 8K for the entire 360 image - front, back, left, right, up and down - so the resolution of each "view" is closer to HD.
Great!
Is there much difference between 5.7k and 8k ? Is it worth the heat and file size for using 8k ?
If you plan to reframe in to "normal" videos, I think the 8K makes a noticeable improvement compared to the 5.7K reframes of the X3/X2. I have not had any overheating messages yet, but I expect it will have the same issues the X2/X3 had when it is hot outside. Last year, I tried to walk from the entrance of an Orlando hotel over to a bus pickup point, and the camera overheated within minutes of being out in the August Florida heat. I am curious to know if the X4 does better, maybe with that thermal grip thing added.
Can you tell the difference between 8k and 5.k on X4 ? Personally, Im not sure. Sometime I feel like 8k slightly better, sometimes I feel like they look the same. Perhaps I just have bad eyes.
When I went from X2 to X3, there were some cases when I liked the look and colors of the X2. When I went from X3 to X4, I think overall the X4 is better but there are still times when you may prefer the colors of the X3. As to resolution, in all my tests, the X4 has looked better other than colors being different. There are many missing features in the X4 (it won't work with the GPS remote, or Apple Watch) which were things I used, so until those are added, X4 may not be a good choice if you rely on GPS data or a remote.
Thanks for providing details many don't! In particular your height! Curious how bent your legs are at 'full extension'. Disappointed there is no pedal assist, but it is what it is.
It got too cold for me to ride shortly after I got this bike, but I expect to take it out soon and see what else I can find. It felt okay at my height, but I need to run it with the motor off and see how it feels to actual pedal it for an extended time.
Nice video comparison
Thanks, what a great comparison. I use dewarp if I like to have more speed in the video! It's amazing in sports like MTB riding in the woods. Beautiful natural blur and crazy speed :-)
I have much to learn! I normally use this camera for walking around theme parks and capturing everything going on, so I don't have to spend my vacation looking at a screen or through a lens. I have used it on some bike and scooter rides, and may try to do more of that this year.
no 60fps in X3?
Not in this mode, but I think it has some single lens modes that do 60. All my video experience has been HD at 30fps, but now with phones doing 4K and 60fps, I may have to switch up.
I hate the new app and studio ASPECT RATIOS ! my question is why Insta360 people delete the LINEAR and LINEAR+ and Narrow they say, they changed the name but isn't true the real aspect ratio Lienar and Linear+ is very good to do a video with 0 effect of fish eye the DEWARP the say is the same as LINEAR and LINEAR+ but not if you raise up and down you'll see the video get curved fuck it!!! for X4 if you want to add a new or rename the aspect ratio ok! but dont delete a real flat aspect ratio was very good and a lot people use that LINEAR and + aspect ratio to edit videos that look normal and not fish eye i hope INSTA360 return again that 3 aspect ratios linear and + and Narrow! what a big mistake!!
Thank you for this. I was considering buying the cam and was searching if non fish eye is possible.
I had hoped it was just a renaming of LINEAR. I did not think to test those modes against the X3.
I use only mega
There definitely appears to be more detail in the X4 footage, BUT, it also appears to be exposed a bit lower. I have to wonder how much more detail would be visible with the extra contrast added via lower exposure on the X3. Also, you're shooting 60 FPS on the X4 , assuming this camera's encoder is bandwidth limited, you might get more detail per frame by shooting at 30 FPS. Can you do a side by side in sunlight with the X3 with say, -0.3 or so EV dialed in, leave the X4 at 0.0 EV, and shoot both at 30 FPS, export at 4k?
I will be getting rid of my X3 soon, but will try to do some more requested comparisons before that happens.
very useful video, thanks
Sharpness setting? The 'low' setting on the X4 should only be used if you want it to look like an earlier model. Maybe upload one of your excellent comparisons showing a static shot of a detailed scene shot in each of the three sharpness settings in good light. But I am starting to wonder whether there is a problem with your particular X4. Search for an upload in the last few days shot in Venice, runs for about 18 mins, looks excellent.
I have been using Medium, which I think is the default, and suggested by various "Use these settings on your X4" CZcams videos I watched. I need to set it up somewhere and record the same footage at all different sharpness levels. I've never done that, and just blindly use settings these CZcamsrs suggest.
In other tests X4 low sharpness has been shown to seriously degrade the image. Not a good setting unless you really like the soft focus look.
The CZcamsrs that show "best settings for your X4" seem to have differing opinions. Many say Low, so it can be sharpened later in an editor if needed, some say Medium. We should get them all in a video chat and let them discuss and debate why they choose such settings. I generally run at factory defaults unless I have a specific reason to change.
@@subethasoftware What worries me is that X4 low sharpness may be losing detail, permanently, which can't be recovered later in editing. That seemed to be what I saw in the one brief test I've seen on CZcams. If that is true, it would be better to set it to medium in camera and soften it in editing, if desired. I know some videographers use low sharpness on every camera, but as there is so much AI processing going on inside the X4, it might not be the best choice - until someone proves that it is. I'd do the tests - but I don't have the camera...
@@Ozpeter Valid. I had left it at default, which is Medium, but someone mentioned it looked overly sharp in one of my other videos, so I checked the setting, and just set it to the same level to match the X3. Default makes more sense for comparison videos, I think, since that’s how the vast majority of users will probably be using this thing. When I get my next bit of time, I have another series of comparisons folks have suggested, and I’ll try to do some X4 to X4 comparisons like this as well.
@@subethasoftware Your time is much appreciated!
@@Ozpeter Even though I’ve been using digital cameras since 1996 (over 200,000 images in my galleries currently), I still claim to know little about photography. I just want to turn it on, and shoot. I only do manual stuff when trying to get non-blurry stuff on a roller coaster, or better night shots. I really need to dive in to the X4 a bit and see what sharpness I should be using. With “experts” saying Low, and others saying Medium, it’s hard to know what to use without doing testing.
I caught the plastic lens cover on the X4. Did your original reframe comparison have those on also? Was the X3 also using a lens cover?
The X4 has the plastic lens protector on in all of my videos, and none on the X3. I did this because 'it comes in the box" and the tutorial in the X4 on startup tells you how to install them, so I thought that was a fair comparison - X4 "as it is" versus X3. And, because I was afraid of messing up my new X4. I've already bonked it on a doorway because it's "just a bit taller" than I am used to. Weird.
So basically absolutely no reason to get an X4. On the X4, the colors are blown out, resolution isn't any better even at 4k. There does appear to be better IS or perspective correction, as when you rotate the X4 handles the shift better than the X3, but I feel like that's just a software thing. I am absolutely and completely unimpressed with the 4K output of this. Maybe it's just CZcams compressing it? It looks terrible.
After having the X2 and X3, I like the X4 so much better. Reframing from the higher 8K 360 source looks much better to me than what the X2 and X3 could do. But I just turn it on and click record - I don't mess with manual settings and such, which - like any camera, I guess - is what you really need to do to get the best video from a camera.
What is the meaning of 5.7k+ ?
Unclear to me. It is supposed to use less storage than 8K, but be almost as good. That's why I am doing the tests. I believe it still gave me the "low light, use 5.7K" warning when I did the 5.7K+ test.
It's a newly added mode in a recent firmware of the X4 that claims to be 5.7K resolution but offer somehow improved image vs a normal 5.7K image. Insta360 says: "Close to 8K image-quality but with a smaller file size. 5.7K+ is not suitable in low light conditions." It takes up a middle ground of storage space between 8K and normal 5.7K and does not offer any frame rates about 30, just like the 8K setting.
@@canyonblue737-8 We need to learn more details. At first I assumed it was 5.7K with a higher internal bitrate, but I recall checking and seeing them about the same. (I was hoping to be able to tell what mode something was recorded in via the Insta360 desktop app, but it does not show 5.7K+.) Since 5.7K+ gives the "low light" warning, just like 8K, I think it must be doing something on the front end -- maybe recording the "8K" mode and downsizing in the camera or something? I sure wish they'd actually tell us what it does.
Thank you. X4 seem to perform a very good hdr filtering before encoding the video, but 8k is not a visual quality step. Seem this sensor is not good for this resolution, i'm disapointed, resolution step up is very low. Does you can share insv original file to compare real pixels before reframe? Maybe the reframe is very bad.
In daylight, the X4 looks substantially better after reframing to me than the X3. In low light conditions, like this test done in the evening, I really just see brighter colors.
@subethasoftware I know 8k 30fps video is output at 2.7k after reframing what is 5.7k 60fps video output at after reframing?
@@brianmagicman3556 When I reframe 8K 360 on the X4, it defaults to exporting at 4K. For 5.7K+ and 5.7K, the export default is HD just like the X3/X2/etc.
@@subethasoftware I've seen videos that say 8k 30fps only output at 2.7K (or am I missing something) ???
@@brianmagicman3556 The exported file will be 4K. Wide angle fish-eye lenses will never be comparable to a “normal” lens so all you can say is the X4 exports more active resolution (visibly so, visible better) than the X3/X2 did from 360. The file export will be a 4K file, but just like the X2/X3 “HD” output is not really HD, this is not really 4K - just the image size.
Are you sure the top is the X3? Unlike your X3 vs. X4 reframe comparison, the X3 in this video looks clearer in almost every scenario. Look at the 0:45 time mark. The cars waiting to turn are way clearer. The Dental sign in the back is clearer. On the moving part of the video, the signage of the businesses are crisp on the X3 and not so much on the X4.
Yeah, the X4 is the one with the much greener grass. This is why I keep doing different tests in different lighting conditions. For the daylight tests, I really think the X4 won across the board. For this "more in the evening" tests I really like the X3 better some of the time.
Looks like I did the first tests (intersection) starting at 7:55pm. Sunset was officially around 8:15pm, and the other tests (along the path) started around 8:08pm. Much like how some X2 footage looked better to me than the X3, I think the same case can be made for X3 versus X4. But overall, I am so used to the improved user interface and features I don't think I could go back to my X3 at this point.
I forgot I also did a single lens test, at the end of all these, around 8:25pm. It is much darker video. I will get that posted soon.
@@subethasoftware That is really odd that the X3 is better in low light. I guess you need to run this same test in better light to see if that reframe video was an anomaly. I don't think it was though. I've seen some "unprocessed" video of the X3 vs. X4 and it showed the same sharper quality on the signs and such for the X4. Good to see some tests though. Its the first thing I do with my cameras also to get some kind of baseline.
If I had to choose, I like "mega".
Thanks to the resolution improvements with the X4, I am expecting to mostly record 360 video. With the ONE X2 and X3, I would usually just record single lens since the reframed 360 was pretty poor. With X4, I think the reframed video is "good enough" but if I really want to record something with better resolution and lack of warping, I'll just use my phone for that.
Hello. How is the bike now? Any problems with it?
I have not had it out since last year. It is now starting to warm up, so I will be getting the bike out of storage and do more testing with it.
Noob question, I know, but does the setting change of Mega, Dewarp, or Ultra actually change the way the 360 video is recorded or just how it is first seen in editing software? I would have thought a camera that shoots 360 would have all the possible FOV. Just got x4 yesterday and have to break 40+ years of old school video habits, thanks for help.
In single lens mode, the FOV setting (vertical or horizontal video, too) will be what is put in the MP4 file. For 360, the file that is recorded looks like two fish eye circles, and the field of view is just synthetic by the editing software. I can just walk around and record 360, then export it in all these different modes.
@@subethasoftware Thanks, very helpful. Now if I can only figure out why I'm getting worse battery life with 8k 30 than with 5.7 30 with my new x4
@@lancairdriver I would expect any larger format would have worse battery life simply from having to do more I/O to the memory card, writing out more data. Larger file, more work. Maybe that should be a test. Lens cap on, so it's encoding the same "screen", and record for 45 minutes in 8K, 45 minutes in 5.7K, 45 minutes in 5.7K+, etc. and check the file sizes. The estimates given by Insta360 are just estimates, and we should see a much smaller file when recording things that are not moving, versus recording motion/action footage.
I find myself using Mega most of the time, the fov is HUGE!!
We are in a world where folks actually seem to enjoy looking at warped video where all the buildings are curved, etc. A year or two ago, I did some walk thru videos of Universal Orlando using one of the fish-eye modes. It really does capture a lot more of what is "going around" but I'm so old school I still have a hard time "liking" warped video like that.
There doesn't seem to be much info on what exactly this does. I assume it's trying to fake some kind of HDR Dolby Vision thing, but it's not clear exactly what's going on.
Someone posted something (maybe on REDDIT) that made it sound like you had to have a player/TV/etc that supported it to see any advantage? I can clearly see it changes the colors, but maybe it’s like HDR or something - you have to have something that supports this format to really see what it does? I don’t know if I should enable it on all my exports, or not, at this point.
It was popping up on my app. But not no more
@@donm8555 It's still there but I think they moved the option to a different location. I forget exactly where it is now off-hand, but it's there somewhere. Also, they added DolbyVision to the Studio desktop application as well.
Just to make sure for the x4: You shot in 360°Mode (not single lense) with 4k (how many fps?)? Thank you! Would be interested in a 360°Mode reframed x4, 5.7k/60fps video.
I did both tests - one shooting both in single lens mode and exporting, and the other shooting both in 360 then reframing and exporting. I think this video is the Reframed 360 one, so that is what you see when you record 360 and export flat later.
I have the EBE1. I really like it. It also has 16 wheels but I wish it goes further than 25km on throttle because it’s hard to pedal when the battery dies
Please explain “16 wheels”?
Oh! Size, not number of wheels. Duh.
Are the batteries cross compatible between x3 and x4? I know the x2 and x3 batteries are not compatible.
Nope - you need to get new batteries, new charger, no mic adapter, new quick reader (apparently). Sigh. At least with the batteries we see why - larger and more power. I am not sure why they couldn’t make the clip on mic adapter compatible. The GPS remote currently does not work with the X4 either. (Well, it sorta does, but it is not listed as compatible and the screen does not update - it does start/stop video though.)
5.7k and not 5.7k+ , right?
There may be a mistake in these videos. I initially recorded an 8K pass, then a 5.7K+ pass, then a 5.7K pass. A few of my recordings were incomplete, since the REC button the X4 seems to behave differently - a delay, perhaps, and I’d push it twice, cancelling the recording. But this #1 might have been the 5.7K+ pass and #2 is the normal 5.7K. I thought I could tell from Insta360 Studio but I don’t even know what to look for - same frame rate and resolution, of course.
Thank you! Exactly what those influencers didn't deliver. Really helped me out to see some "real life" footage that hasn't been hampered with.
Also see the Single Lens one I just uploaded. It looks awful :(
hmm.. i would have liked it when you had also exported in 4k with the X3 so i dont know: is it less resolution because exportet only in FullHD or is it less resolution because of the readout of the chip i liked the single-lens-comparison Video but this here: ok to see, that i like the colors on the X4 more but fo resolution: its that export-issue fullhD vs. 4k it would be also great so see: X3 in Single Lens-mode vs. X4 reframes to same size in 360-Mode.. so people who have already an X3 get a better feeling
The X3 exporting reframed video only does 1080HD. I think you can customize and export a larger size, but my understanding is you only get about 1080HD anyway so it’s not helping. I do like the idea of comparing single lens X3 4K with reframed 360 4K from the X4. I’ll try that! If the X4 reframed can compare to X3 single lens, that’s huge.
artifical sharpening seems to be also more aggressive on the X4...
I do not know what the default is on the X4, but it also has the Low, Medium and High setting. It’s possible I have my X3 set to Low or something, and the X4 defaulted to something higher. I was trying to leave the X4 “generic” but I need to check that. I think I need to redo all these tests, anyway, and add some new ones folks have suggested.
This video is super helpful. Thanks!
I needed to see it with my own eyes. All the expert users know how to set manual settings and stuff, and always get results far better than what I get when I just turn the camera on and click record.
