Since I knew there would be plenty of standard video online, as half the people in the store were shooting with their iPhones, I opted to shoot 360-degree video to provide the most immersive experience possible. The first time I used it was when attending the opening of Apple Brompton Road, the fifth Apple Store in London, and the third flagship. The 4K module is pretty much standard, and I don’t have much to say about that beyond that it gives comparable results to GoPro, so this review is focused on the 360 cam.

However, as you are taking a smaller chunk of it for each view, this – happily – looks very much like 1080p footage. The same resolution proviso applies: that claimed 5.7K resolution is across the whole field of view. The latter is like you had infinite cameras shooting in different directions, with the ability to choose the viewpoint you want for each moment during the edit. If you opt for 360 footage, then you can later choose whether to edit and export as native 360 (spherical) video, or to reframe in edit. That can be a tough call, because 4K gets you much higher (effective) resolution, while the 360 module gets you a less clear but more immersive experience. The first decision you’ll need to make is whether you want to shoot conventional fixed-viewpoint 4K footage, or 360-degree video.

While entirely visible in the plastic, the companion editing apps for both iPhone and Mac are configured to recognize and remove the stick from view, to give a floating drone-like look to the footage. Here you can see it with the 360-degree module alongside:įinally, the kit comes with that Insta360 calls the Invisible Selfie Stick. The main distinguishing feature is the bright red battery base. With the 4K standard lens attached in the forward-facing position, the ONE RS looks fairly similar to a GoPro.

Invisible selfie stick (which the companion apps edit out).5.7K 360 camera lenses (two lenses facing in opposite directions).The Insta360 ONE RS Twin Edition is a package that gets you: Different packages and similar names add to the confusion, such as the ONE R and ONE RS. Insta360 has a pretty confusing array of cameras (including the super-pocketable Insta360 GO 2 I tested recently), and brings out new ones at frequent intervals. You also get dedicated editing apps for both iOS and Mac … It’s a very neat approach, for not too much more than the cost of a single-camera GoPro Hero 10, and integrates extremely well with an iPhone app. The Insta360 ONE RS Twin Edition is the company’s attempt to provide a complete action cam package, combining both 360-degree footage and conventional GoPro-style video in one modular system. My first experience of using a 360-degree camera was a few years ago, the Insta360 ONE iPhone module.
