    I ordered x3 3 weeks ago, but returned it, bcs it had bad quality. X4 came out, watched all the sponsored videos, was hyped again. Now I can see theres not really much of an upgrade?! I think i will not buy anything now haha.. 600 eur for this is too much imo.

      It's definitely a big upgrade from the x3 if you do shorts/ vertical because you can crop vertical in 4k now instead of it looking like an iPhone 10

      X4, I personally prioritize resolution past depth because when posting online, the algo and as well as people usually skip more on lower resolution. And I hate seeing pixels

  • @Ozpeter
    @Ozpeter Před měsícem +1

    Hmmm. The part where you were showing all 3 cameras was one of the best x3 x4 comparisons I have seen, but the x4 looked kind of out of focus. Did you have the lens guards fitted? Did you label the footage correctly? (sorry..). It just doesn't seem to reflect the higher resolution of the new camera.

      @Ozpeter I'm not a camera guy, most of what I know I just made up. But from my assumption they all have the same for as it's a 360 camera but what inprises is the resolution, stabilization, and stitching. Stitching may be model specific because of sizes of cameras and I doubt they still work on x2 stitching. Resolution on this camera is way better though

      @plantakeovertheworld  Před měsícem

      Oh and yea they all camera from differnt SD cards, no lense guards. And its kind a hard to tell all split up. If you look at my shorts though, the newest one is with the x4 and it actually let me crop down to vertical 4k

      @@DanFarrar you can bump the 1inch to like 2.5k 16:9 but I think it's more of a use case scenario. If you want to record at night, and the weight of the camera doesn't matter go one inch, there's like no need to upload 4k to you tube rn, morlst peoples computers cant even buffer the resolution in time. But if your doing cropping, or mounting it to a person or something the x4 is better. The x4 weight alot less and those pixels really help the footage compete with the iPhone 4k cameras. I'll prob be using the x4 90 percent of the time now. Low light shmo light you can't see anything anyway and no one wants to watch dark footage

  • @johannesstahl3370
    @johannesstahl3370 Před měsícem +1

    There was a guy compared those two camerad and the footage of the x3 looked dull. But if you pull the videos of the x3 release on his channel the videos looked so much better then in the comparison. But he said the footage was not edited and come straight from the camera. Those sponsored videos are made to bias people and make them buy the product. The creaters have a roadmap to show the product on sponsored trips (so not the product/video is sponsored but the trip only).
    Currently i miss the real honest comparison between thise two cameras. 8k is nice but eats battery, storage and let cams overheat. Most people look the footage only. somehow compresst or on small screen. Or have to save data on their mobile contract. Action cams are made to catch the moment. Not every single detail around. Also lots of the equipment has to be replaced. Lensguards, spare batterys, cases etc. Put this in perspective and calculate if its worth to have a few more details in video nobody cares about on the internet.
    For professional use maybe its athing because the camera is a tool. But for hobby makes not that much of an impact i think.
    The X3 is a phantastic piece of cam and its not that necessary to be replaced by the X4. Maybe if you are using an older X2 or so it could be ur deal.

    ProRes… Hardcore, man ;-) I thought me using h.265 and 200 Mbps was extreme. I am humbled :) Good info there with the file sizes. At 10:21 the X4 really looks to be the worse of the three.
    We live in magical times when you can hand hold a camera and get smooth-as-silk motion out of it.

    • @plantakeovertheworld
      @plantakeovertheworld  Před měsícem

      Haha I figure if it's gonna be there for ever might as well. And I was seeing something about the compression being better for pixel mistakes when compressed and then unzipped again and idk how you tube keeps their files so I thought it would last longer in better quality. Cuz we don't know but maybe with all the compression over 40 years the files will start to look like old sun burnt film. You'd have to sort through to find the best version or hope your hdd with the orginal didn't fail yet and they have maybe 10 years before it's kinda suss. So I just wipe final cut every video or two with a 1tb ssd

      @allenhuffman so I made a social media app for the vision pro that you can upload 360 stuff to and share with people. But not everyone has a vision yet
      Also it's weird, the 360 footage is more compressed before hand and once you bump to 4k it gets huge. Iv really only just started to film alot but I was in on this project called chia where you mine crypto but with hard drives... so I have 500+ terabytes so I'm even double backing up everything to two separate drives
