    This is not the first time I bought something from Insta360, and as usual, it is a great product. I mean, the camera of Insta360 is already something that worth to buy, and with Leica lens just makes it perfect. No matter the operation of this camera or the footage quality from this camera is just amazing. Price might be a little bit expensive, but trust me, you will never regret to buy it.

    Light enough for some “action-light” shots, even on the end of the extended selfie stick.

    I purchased this camera for action only but it also fairly worked as a security camera. For instance In my vehicle I recorded while driving. One downside was it got heated when I arrived to my location after an hour. I think it proven and tested well enough to be a what is it for and beyond. It’s camera quality is great enough to read plates of the vehicles and seeing who is driving.

    I needed a 360 camera that could handle some low light stuff for my car content and traveling and boy does this thing deliver. The extra bit of resolution over my X2 is also noticeable and a great plus. I’m going on a trip to vegas soon and definitely will be bringing this thing along because i think it will be awesome for all the lights at night.

    The insta360 1-inch edition is THE BEST 360 camera on the market for capturing cinematic 360 footage. Capable of shooting up to 6K, the 1-inch sensors make for unbelievable low light footage. I use all of my insta360 products to shoot RC car footage and this is an amazing addition to my video arsenal. It allows me to redirect and follow my cars without having to focus on filming and driving at the same time. The insta360 app brings this camera to another level, letting you reframe shots after you shoot, add crazy warping and sky replacements all internally. You can also swap batteries and other modules into it! Super excited to continue to push the envelope with this camera

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersThis is my third 360 camera and follows the original Insta360 camera and a Go Pro 360 camera. The One Inch RS camera affords much higher video quality due to its 6K resolution and one inch image sensor than either of my two previous 360 cameras. Image quality is very good to excellent and is especially good in low light situations. The modular design of the camera is nice, but not easy to disassemble and reassemble. (After my first effort at disassembling and reassembling the One Inch, the camera failed to work and I had to repeat the process being very careful to correctly connect the components.) The position of the power button is less obvious and not as accessible as I would like. The door covering the USB C charging port is not easily opened and tends to flop down making insertion of the USB C cable occasionally awkward. Insta360 have done a very good job with the software (Insta360 Studio 2022) and this is a huge advantage to their 360 cameras. Reframing 360 videos is easy and straightforward using their software. I do regret that the software does not afford a feature that allows you to save a project and come back to it later. Once the program is closed all edits are lost. This seems a remarkably missing feature. Kudos to Insta360 Tech Support. I had a problem with the One Inch on Christmas Eve, and wrote them. On Christmas morning I had a detailed and helpful response. In summary, I am very pleased with the Insta360 RS One Inch camera, feel that it currently is the image quality champion in consumer 360 cameras, and is worth the higher price to achieve this image quality.

    Recently I picked up the Insta360 ONE RS 1 inch 360 Edition. I mainly picked up this camera for higher end projects for real estate videos and virtual tours.

    The Leica lenses provides dual 1 inch sensor that can shoot 6K video and 23-MP stills. The quality of video is noticeably better than what I was able to capture with the ONE RS. It’s sharper and has less noise.

    If you’re in to 360 footage and need the highest possible image quality in a consumer camera, the Insta360 ONE RS 1 inch is all you need.

    The highest image quality!

    An extremely unique, high-level addition to any creator or filmmaker’s toolkit.

    After using the GoPro Hero’s 3 thru 11, as well as the Insta360 X3, I can confidently say that this camera has taken the creative potential of 360 cameras to a whole new level.

    With basically 2x the sensor size of the X series, shooting in low light has become much more possible, and images with 6K resolution allow 360 camera footage to be a part of larger productions and workflows. Already gotten some incredible footage in lowlight with this, and excited to see how else it can be pushed.

    A whole different beast.

    I recently purchased the Insta360 One RS 1 inch in order to get a different perspective when creating content and I am extremely impressed with its performance. The image quality is top-notch, with crystal clear resolution and vibrant colors. The camera is also very user-friendly, with an intuitive interface and easy-to-use controls.

    One of the standout features of the One RS 1″ is its ability to shoot in 6K resolution, which allows for stunningly detailed footage. One of the reasons for this is because it also has a 1″ sensor which assists the camera in low light environments allowing for sharp footage with less noise. The camera also has a range of creative modes, including TimeShift, which allows you to speed up or slow down parts of your video, Free Capture, which lets you reframe your shots in post-production, and the ability to use HDR bracketing for high dynamic range photos when doing walkthroughs in real estate.

    Overall, I highly recommend the Insta360 One RS 1 inch to anyone in the market for a high-quality 360 camera. It’s a great investment for not only filmmaking but also photographers looking to capture 360 photos for tours and walkthroughs.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThis 360 action camera is a huge step forward in professional image quality for video production. The large 1 inch sensor makes this camera great in low light compared to other action cameras. It is even light weight enough for me to mount it onto my freestyle FPV drone to get insane video quality in outdoor low light flight. The 6k 360 video feature is necessary for professional work and especially if we are planning to post on social media where we need to crop in the video. There is also an insta360 app in the mobile App Store where you can connect the app to the camera to edit/view the captured footage. It’s very intuitive and convenient to have the free app available for same day quick edits. I’m also very impressed with the build quality of the body and glass of the camera and is light enough to travel with in your bag without even noticing the weight of it. If you’re looking for a high quality and lightweight camera to create creative travel videos with for under $1000 USD, then this action camera is it.

    If you are a professional videographer or content creator who wants to create aspirational content, this is a great camera for you.

    We have been experimenting with 360 cameras in photographing action scenes. The RS 1-inch 360 has dual 1-inch CMOS sensors and offers 6K@30fps. The image quality is better than any other 360 cameras I have ever used. The low light performance is awesome. This camera could change in a big way the look on how action scenes are photographed in motion pictures.

    I also realized that the RS 1-inch 360 is compatible with Matterport. I am going to try it out for my real estate clients and add more feedback later.

    Great for aspirational content!

    If you are looking for a 360 camera and your priority is video quality, the 1-inch 360 offers the best video quality I’ve seen for any 360 camera under $2000. Its sensors are about four times larger than the sensors used in consumer 360 cameras. The difference in sensor size makes its videos look “richer” (this difference will be more noticeable to more experienced shooters). The large sensors also give the 1-inch 360 the best low light video performance available for a 360 camera under $2000.

    Downsides: first, it’s significantly heavier. My wrist gets tired when I hold the 1-inch 360 with a long monopod. Second, it’s not great at high frame rate. If slow motion is important for you, the 1-inch 360 is not designed for that. Third, it’s water resistant but not waterproof. These weaknesses mean that it’s not designed for action (if that’s your priority, check out the Insta360 X3 instead).

    However, if you want the best video quality, there’s nothing that can beat the 1-inch 360 at anywhere near this price range. I uploaded a sample video, but Amazon review videos have very limited resolution and high compression, so it can’t really do it justice. Instead, I suggest searching for videographer Brandon Li’s videos of the 1-inch 360 to see what this excellent camera is capable of.

    From the tough, solid build quality to the crisp 6K video quality, this is Insta360’s highest quality and most impressive camera yet. Building on the modular design of the Insta360 One R and RS cameras, this one inch mod is quite a bit bigger, heavier, and more expensive. So if you are on a budget, the One RS or X3 cameras might be better suited for you. However, if you need the best image quality in a 360 camera for professional or commercial shoots, this is the best 360 camera for the job at the moment.

    This is a high powered camera in a compact package. The glass and the lens creates a very clear image and the software integration is very user-friendly right out of the box. The image quality is very clean even in low light, and I’m excited to try it in a variety of other environments and situations. I would highly recommend this camera to easily capture every bit of the action.

    This camera is amazing for capturing everything around with an amazingly crisp and clear image. With this having 1″ sensors I really tested out its Low light performance and it totally held through great. This camera makes it awesome and easy to hit one button to start recording! The picture just looks incredible and Id definitely recommend this to over and over to anybody that is looking for an easy to use 360 camera. It’s very versatile and Adaptable since the camera does get updated frequently and the Insta360 app makes it very easy to edit footage and also to learn different ways of getting unique pictures/videos. 10/10 my all time favorite camera!

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersThis is our favorite monoscopic 360 camera (compared to the stereoscopic 360 camera for VR filmmaking) for professional Virtual Tours & 360 Video Production. We actually purchased 3 of them for our production company and brought them on our film set all the time for BTS videos, POV videos, and 360 photography. I have done a full in-depth review on my YouTube Channel HughHouFilm, already. Here is a recap of what I think about the camera for anyone considering purchasing this. I really hope it is helpful to you to make your own decision:
    1. Great at Low Light 360 Video
    2. Great for 1-shot HDR 360 photography for Virtual Tours (vs Theta Z1)
    3. Light enough to travel with me
    4. Build like a ROCK! As long as not drop it with the lens to the ground, it usually survives! (I know…as I did drop it several times and one from a DRONE in the sky!)
    5. Now support GPS overlap and GPS for GSV!
    6. Continue firmware and feature updates since release.
    7. No HDR like X3 but the image quality is better in both Video and Photo
    8. Overheat issue be aware for long hours of recording
    9. 6K 360 Video is essential for professional works
    10. The stabilization is as good as X3 (not an action camera but I used it for action sports!)
    11. Initial release has an audio issue when working with an external mic. But now it is fixed with great audio support. Please update to the latest firmware to address the audio issue before use!

    This is our third One RS 1″ 360 camera – and I think it is a step up for any 360 camera under $1000. It is kind of an industry standard at this point. We do recommand it for professionals. For consumers, and action sports lovers, we suggest checking out Insta360 X3 first before this one.
    I hope this help you. Happy 360!

    Great Monoscopic 360 Camera for Virtual Tour & 360 Video Production - for Professionals!

    Bought this camera as an upgrade to my RC Drifting hobby to track and follow cars around a track. After installing the memory card and getting the app setup,I tried the camera on an invisible selfie stick in my car, as seen in the video I posted.

    The camera has a 1 inch sensor and that gives you a much bigger area to see what you’re trying to record. I love the software that they use with it, it makes editing and adding effects to your videos fairly easy compared to other apps I’ve tried.

    I’ll use it for a while and update my review, but as of right now this is a serious contender in action cameras with great software support. Makes editing and creating content a whole lot easier.

    This camera is amazing. I have owned some 360 cameras before, but this is a step up from past Insta360 and definitely better than the GoPro MAX. I run a video production company and make content for Youtube and this camera works well for both. For Youtube, it’s great for unique perspectives, time lapse, stabilized footage (even on a drone) and much more. For my production company, I feel confident using it on client projects with it’s 1″ sensor and Leica lens. I have always thought that a 360 camera would be good on some of my client projects, but never felt like previous cameras were up to the level I need for my production company. This one definitely is!

The dual Leica lens has high quality, especially in low light. I brought it to Lake Tahoe and I am satisfied with the image quality. I can see the milky way clearly in the photo.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our Users(Update 1/2/2023: Insta360 customer support has reached out to me December/2022 to resolve my dissatisfaction and poor experience with the Insta360 RS 1 inch camera and to try a replacement w/ their full tech support included if needed. I am updating this review and just want to say Insta360 has been wonderful in it’s support and willingness to make things right and in its prompt correspondence to me through email. Insta360 support gets 10 stars!).

    —————————-

    After returning an Insta360 RS 1 inch due to issues with not recognizing my memory cards which met the specs required, and after doing some research online for related my issues (detailed in this review) I decided to try again and got another Insta360 RS 1 inch and had much more success after finding the solution to my previous issues.

    Having used it now for several hours of evaluation, I’m posting this review in hopes it may help others who had similar issues initially and returned theirs as well.

    Huge difference I know from my previous 2 star rating, but, in hopes that my updated review here explains why my review changed in detail, I hope many will get some useful information and perspectives from this update.

    Sorry for the long winded update here, but, I’m hoping it does offer some insight and help to others considering this camera to purchase or perhaps who had similar issues to what I did and returned their camera as well.

    My previous 2 star review dealt with 3 MicroSd cards (all meeting the UHS-1 and V30 spec) here used routinely in two drones, plus at times in some digital cameras I own. I use Micro to full SD adapters for my Nikon and Panasonic MFT cameras as needed.

    The issue I experienced was that I had MicroSD cards here that all of them fully met the UHS-1 & V30 specs required for the RS 1 inch, yet, the Insta360 RS 1 inch in all cases would not recognize any MircoSd card was inserted. These cards were then also formatted to exFAT in another computer in a second attempt to see if it might resolve the NO CARD recognized message on the RS 1 inch so I could use the cards, but, it didn’t.

    I purchased a new MicroSd card with larger capacity then what I already had (64GB) that met the UHS-1 and V30 spec and it was recognized immediately by the RS 1 inch replacement and I was able to format it directly in the Insta360 and proceed to use the camera. A new (compatible) card that is not formatted at all will automatically be formatted as soon as inserted in the camera and power turned one.

    I was still stumped why my recently purchased 64GB card wasn’t being detected in the Insta360 since it had the same UHS-1, V30 specs as the newer card I had just received and was using.

    Although I am a stickler for handling all of my memory cards carefully (including storage in a hard memory card case) and for SD or any of my memory cards, I never touch the area where the contacts are located, I got to thinking that the MicroSD cards and their contacts might be more inclined to get “dirty” given they are in and out of the several Micro-to-full SD adapters I use here.

    So, ….I gently cleaned the contact area of the 64GB microSd card with a lens/eyeglass cleaner (water/IPA) from a sealed pouch and buffed the contact area dry using a clean micro-cloth.

    I reinserted the 64GB MicroSD card in the Insta360 and bingo, the camera recognized the card was installed and I reformatted the card inside of the RS 1inch with no issues.

    WOW,…Lesson learned here is that while (most) other cameras, drones and other devices might be fine and work well with minimally coated/dirty contacts on a memory card, the Insta360 prefers very clean contacts.

    This is not really any design defect for this camera, it simply means to just be certain that your MicroSD Card contacts are nice and clean for the RS 1 inch. I’d probably gotten by just exhaling on the contacts to offer a bit of moisture and using a clean micro-cloth to buff the contacts gently.

    When there is no card installed in the Insta360 (or it can’t detect one that is installed), the camera functions and general setup gets a bit quirky. That’s where my previous review came from. Given that no SD card means no recording, the camera will alert you there’s no card present. There is a “confirm” tab you can select on the small screen to over-ride the absence of a MicroSd card for presumably just making changes in settings, but, I chose not to use it and rather, get a formatted and functional card installed right up front before proceeding.

    Get a functioning MicroSd card installed and all of the issues go away and the app (IOS) works smoothly as does the camera.

    As other great reviews have stated, the still and video images are superb! Very clear and sharp. Low noise levels in lower light.

    I was amazed at how fast the stitching is done in-camera to create the file on the storage card….a few seconds, even when I was in the higher resolutions for video. (Long video sequences of course take a little longer to process, but, it’s still a fast process).

    I do not see any stitching artifacts for still or video.

    The RS 1 inch seems to handle that task -very- smoothly and effectively.

    I have yet to really analyze the audio and it’s not (yet) a high priority. I’ll be doing more stills then video initially. (If I need to emphasize audio, perhaps later I’ll get a small wireless external mic if needed as well).

    The screen seems tiny as many have mentioned, but, when using the IOS app and viewing remotely on my iPhone 14, it resolves that issue.

    The limiting factor for me for the small screen isn’t really a difficult time viewing it given it’s small area,…, it is more using the touchscreen functions. If you have medium to larger fingers, the small screen might pose a little more challenge to use.

    Speaking of the screen, I purchased glass screen protectors (3 pack) for it at under $8 on Amazon.Easy to align and apply, bubble free and the touch screen functions are not impacted at all. Search Amazon for “Aemus Compatible with Insta360 ONE RS 1-Inch 360 Edition Screen Protector Action Camera Tempered Glass Film”.

    Granted, you can use the app on an Android or Apple IOS device and other then basic setup and “favorite” settings you can select from directly on the camera, most everything can be done remotely using the app instead.

    Given there is a small and compact body profile for this Insta360 model, well, a small screen comes with that design.

    For stationary use or perhaps indoors, one could use a larger iPad or similar android tablet for a larger viewing area if needed.

    The IOS wireless app works smoothly and the wifi/blue-tooth connection has been 100% stable on my iPhone, iPAD 11 PRO and my iPad Mini as well.

    I wish the Android app was also available with an iOS (and OS) version for Macs to use in a wired mode and to my knowledge, aside from perhaps using an after-market adapter, there is no direct/wired cable connection method to use the RS 1 inch (USB-C to USB-C for iOS/Macs. Seems for now it is a wireless connection only for Apple devices.

    -Insta360 states that on their website for the RS 1 Inch:-
    “Note: This camera only supports wired connection to Android devices (via Micro-USB or Type-C). It does not support wired connection to iOS devices. Full wireless support is available for both iOS and Android”. (They have a “quick connect” adapter I think is made for the Android wire connection method, but, for us Apple users, we are out of luck for now).

    Hey Insta360!, there’s a lot of us Apple device users out there too so come on; design and offer a wired app for Macs (OS and iOS) as well and soon! I am sure you can do this if you want to!

    There are after-market adapters at Amazon that claim to allow a wired connection using USB-C, but, no idea if they work (on iOS) and for now, I’m good just using wireless only and have no plans for now to try 3rd party electronics.

    The one inch sensor makes a huge difference in lower light. That’s a standard concept for most all imaging devices. Large(r) area sensors equate to lower noise levels and better image quality in lower light levels. Granted, some cameras do not do well in lower light levels no matter so the rule isn’t necessarily constant across all cameras, but, for the RS 1 inch specifically, in comparing it to my full frame Nikon and Micro-Four-Thirds Panasonic GH6, the RS 1 inch holds its own very, very well. The images look great even when I “pixel peep” (zoom in to view a small image area to critique). (The two Leica sensors that power the 1 Inch 360 Edition are four times the size of sensors found in most other 360 cameras).

    The camera does get warm in use, although not alarmingly hot, but, when shooting video for extended times, the camera is working hard and you can feel the heat being generated. Granted the battery gets warm just being charged, but, all in all, nothing I see that is alarming.

    I can’t yet confirm the battery gets about an hour of video capture per specs, having not used it enough for extended recording, but, many reviews seem to confirm the ~1 hour battery life for video is reasonably accurate. I assume still pics which tax the battery less will offer extended battery life past the 1 hour mark. (TBD).

    By the way, buy at least one spare battery, never take your camera anywhere without a backup so you can keep shooting! (Amazon does not sell the spare battery, but, B&H photo who I’ve purchased from many times in the past, does and I purchased a spare from them).

    To sum it up, this camera which feels heavy and solidly made when held in the hand, offers unique and creative potential for VR enthusiasts. I own a Quest 2 and plan to research how to view the 360 VR files on it from this camera. I’ve read it can be done. It might require file conversions to make it work, but, I’m really looking forward to to playing around and to get this concept to work for me. (I’ll update this review when I am successful!)

    I do plan to update this review as I use this camera more in both still and video mode and explore all of the settings to try to find my sweet spot for set-up which for me, produces the best results.

    At ~$800 plus another $100-200 or so for accessories including a case, potential buyers need to know this is a speciality camera that excels in use per its design and for what it does quite well.

    I would -not- take the Insta360 RS 1 inch as the only travel camera and would as well pack my primary photo gear too, but, the Insta360 RS 1 inch -will- always be along with me when I travel or go out locally, …for events and general subjects that warrant using a 360 VR type view. It’s small and easy to pack so why not!!

    If you’ve made up your mind to buy a 360 degree VR camera, I highly recommend to try this one! Yes, it’s more expensive then some of the smaller sensor cameras out there, but, honestly, you will get what you pay for in image quality and low noise levels in low light.

    —> Lastly, I will say it again, the support and prompt response from customer support at Insta360 has been nothing less than exceptional. They want you to enjoy using this camera and be very satisfied with it.

    No product is worth its cost or value without good customer support if you need it and do feel confident that the Insta360 team wants you to enjoy and more importantly keep and promote this camera to others and will promptly reply and assist you as needed. That’s a big deal!

    So for now as I use this wonderful 360 VR camera, it is certainly worthy of a 5 star review.

    The Insta360 RS 1 inch is a speciality camera that can certainly excel for image quality and features for what it was designed to do and do so very well.

    Is it the best of the 360 VR camera out there right now? Yes, I think so. It’s of course more expensive then the smaller sensor Insta360s or it’s competition, but, if IQ/image quality is everything to you for both still photography and video, it will be worth the investment over the much lower priced 360 VR cameras out there.

    As mentioned, i will update this review as needed over time!

    Thank you for taking the (lengthy) time to read! Much appreciated!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI’m a realtor agent. My client asked us to provide panoramic photos to remote buyers. I tried many 360 cameras but client was disappointed. Some cameras don’t have enough resolutions and some of them are too dark indoors but too bright outside the window. I love this 1 inch panorama camera, which solved my dilemma perfectly.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersI absolutely love this camera! My friend recommended it to do real estate virtual tours. So far, I’m super impressed with the image quality, especially indoors. I used other 360 cameras in the past and was never really satisfied with the photo results. This camera has the the biggest sensor of any small 360 camera and is able to capture video at 6k resolution! My clients have loved the results so far.

    Beyond that, I want to note that Insta360 customer service gets an extra bonus from me. I contacted them after learning about this camera and they spent the time to walk me through all of the features and helping me decide if this was the best camera for me. Kudos!

    I will be posting more about this camera as I start using it more regularly.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersDa ich die X2 habe hatte ich mit die X3 bestellt und war nicht sehr begeistert da das update kaum eine Steigerung gebracht hat und habe sie somit wieder zurck geschickt. Dann bestellte ich die RS1 1Zoll 360grad und was soll ich sagen, sie ist das beste was es z.Z. fr diesen Preis in diesem Segment gibt.
    Ich benutze sie gerne fr meine VR-Brille und da ist der unterschied krass. Super tolle Farben eine gute Bildschrfe fr 360grad und eine gute Bildstabilisierung. Es geht natrlich noch besser aber dann ist man in einer ganz anderen Preis-Liga. Auch die Software macht spa und somit passt das Gesamtpaket. Dazu kommt das der Store einen Super Kundenservice der wirklich auf die Probleme der Kunden eingeht.
    Mit diesem Kauf habe ich ein wirklich gutes Gefhl und freue mich auf die Kreative Arbeit mit dieser Kamera.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThis is my second time with a camera Insta360. This one is a great improvement. My previous one was the Insta360 One R and was great also, but this 1 inch edition is excellent. I recommend it a lot!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersEtwas skeptisch ob ich mir die X3 oder doch die ONE RS 1-Zoll 360 Edition zulegen sollte, war ich am Anfang schon. Als Besitzer einer One 2 (leider nach Unachtsamkeit mit Objektivschaden) fiel mir die Entscheidung anfangs schwer. Die IP63 wasserdichte neue X3 oder die nur spritzwassergeschtzte und kolbige 1″ . Meine Entscheidung in Richtung grerer Sensor und somit auch das etwas mehr an Bildqualitt habe ich jedoch nicht bereut. Ich hoffe nur dass mir mir dieser tollen Kamera kein Hinfaller wie mit der One2 passiert. Eine Reparatur der beiden Objektive der 1″ Version wird wahrscheinlich wesentlich teurerer als 200 die mich die One2 kosten wrde.

    Etwas skeptisch war ich schon ...

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersRisponde alle aspettative alla grande, mi piacciono le sequenze video dinamiche e dove non posso usare il drone uso questa, cercavo un prodotto che avesse una qualit pi alta dell’insta one x 2 che possiedo da un p, questo un prodotto decisamente dedicato a chi vuole creare contenuti video di alta qualit
    non un action camera ci tengo a precisarlo

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersI bought this camera for its new dual 1-inch sensor. And the quality is pretty insane. 6K@30fps is the resolution I have been longging for. And It didn’t fail me in low light. It can shoot beautiful starlapse videos. Very impressive.

    The other thing I’d like to mention is they added a lot of new shotlab templates in the insta360 APP. I can edit based on their AI technology. It’s really easy to use. I love the Skyswap template. I can easily swap the sky with galaxy or Van Gogh’s starry night or so on. How long does it take for a VFX expert to swap the sky? Minimum 2-3 hours. But with the APP, it only takes 2-3 minutes! Good for content creators.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersActualizacin 24 de febrero del 2023:
    Actualizo la resea anterior y la valoracin que paso a cinco estrellas por diversos motivos, si bien el precio me sigue pareciendo excesivo ya que en dlares es muy inferior.
    El primer motivo es que compr la cmara cuando sali al mercado, posteriormente ha habido actualizaciones de firmware que rectificaron el problema que tena. No es extrao que una cmara necesite actualizaciones de firmware, del programa y de la app para ir corrigiendo pequeos errores, bien, cuando los tuve no los consider pequeos, pero una vez resueltos la cmara mejor considerablemente.
    Tambin me gust mucho el soporte de Insta360 para resolver el problema. De verdad lo agradezco, gracias!
    Ya dije en la resea inicial que la cmara me gusta, ahora ms. No se han dado las circunstancias para usarla ms per las veces que lo he hecho me ha gustado.
    Posteriormente sali la X3, nombre corto… genial. La X3 s que es una cmara de accin, una gran cmara, pesa menos y tambin abulta menos, es sumergible… si lo que buscas es una 360 para deportes, palos selfie de 3 metros y accin en general la X3 es la que te recomendara, pero si buscas ms calidad en fotos o vdeos ms tranquilos, de viajes, esta “One RS 1-inch 360 edition” es la que te recomiendo, tambin para poca luz con la calidad de los dos sensores de 1 pulgada.
    En resumen, una cmara de calidad. Ahora a la espera de la nueva actualizacin de firmware que segn rumores se esperaba para principios de ao y va a permitir TimeShift a 8K con datos de localizacin para los que la usan en sus viajes… como la X3 que ya tiene TimeShift a 8K, de momento sin datos de localizacin a la espera de la actualizacin. Tambin al ser modular se supone que con posteriores versiones de la One RS se podr aprovechar el mdulo de las excelentes lentes Leica con los sensores de una pulgada.
    Lstima que Amazon solo permita un vdeo en las reseas, estara bien subir otro mostrando la calidad de esta cmara y los distintos modos de color disponibles en vdeos: Vivid, Standard y LOG, supongo que para esto ya est YouTube.
    Esperemos ms actualizaciones, sin duda Insta360 es una empresa muy activa y prolfica.

    Resea inicial:

    La Insta360 One RS 1-Inch 360 Edition, para empezar un nombre demasiado largo que complica las bsquedas cuando, como es mi caso, tienes un problema con la cmara y lo primero que haces es buscar a ver a quien ya le ha pasado. Con este nombre te salen resultados de la One R, de la One RS, de la versin 4K 1-Inch de LEICA tambin que no es 360, una complicacin excesiva cuando fcilmente podra haber sido Insta360 1L3.
    La cmara es de calidad y me gusta, pero el precio quizs es un poco excesivo cuando casi duplica el de la ONE X2, s, tiene dos sensores de 1 pulgada y lentes LEICA y en fotografa nocturna parece ser que gana por goleada, pero en condiciones normales no hay tanta diferencia con la ONE X2. Adems, la ONEX 2 es sumergible y esta solo se puede mojar con cuidado.
    No es una cmara de accin como pueden ser la ONE RS o la ONE X2, pesa mucho y con monpodes o palos selfie se nota el peso, especialmente con el palo selfie extended Edition de Insta360 que lo curva en exceso.
    Entonces, a quin va dirigida esta cmara? Ya vemos que ni para deportes de accin ni de agua, lo que ya aparta a la mayora de los usuarios de cmaras de accin 360 de los que tantos vdeos pueden verse en YouTube, para estos, no. Por lo que quedan los entusiastas de las fotos y vdeos 360, los que quieren registrarlo todo en sus viajes, profesionales de la fotografa para complementar sus trabajos con fotos y vdeos360, creadores de contenido y pocos ms.
    La cmara tambin puede usarse como webcam, que debe ser ideal para poner en medio de una mesa con tres personas a cada lado que salen todos, tres por lente, pero yo lo prob y no consegu que funcionara una sola lente y me parta la pantalla por lo que se vea un largo rectngulo que no me caba la cara y en el otro largo rectngulo toda la habitacin, quizs no le encontr el punto, pero como webcam la tengo descartada.
    As slo 3 estrellas para una cmara de calidad? De momento s, cuando tenga resuelto el problema que ahora comentar ya subir la puntuacin.
    En realidad, son dos problemas hasta el momento:
    El primero: las fotos raw las carga desequilibradas en Studio, el programa de Insta360 para el tratamiento de las fotos y vdeos 360, es decir, haciendo una rotacin torcida lo que hace muy complicado moverse por la foto y realmente molesta, pero lo peor es que esta foto no sirve como 360. Llam a Amazon, como siempre atencin de primera y me pasaron al soporte de Insta360, les expliqu el caso por mail y rpidamente me respondieron solicitando fotos originales y vdeo de como calibro el giroscopio (adjunto este video) Pero yo disparo en raw y jpg a la vez, por lo que si fuera el giroscopio tambin saldran mal las jpg, y stas salen bien. En estos momentos an debo pasar fotos y ms explicaciones al soporte de Insta360 por lo que queda pendiente como se resuelve este problema. Como he dicho y recalco, tanto la atencin de Amazon como la de Insta360 perfectas.

    El segundo problema: al exportar de Studio una equirectangular de una foto RAW y HDR para tratarla en Lightroom o Affinity, tanto en las fotos independientes del HDR como en la foto final se ve una lnea que separa dos colores distintos cuando deberan ser el mismo color, como es el caso tan frecuente en fotos 360 de un cielo completamente azul, pues sale una separacin que va del horizonte al cenit que divide el cielo en dos colores distintos, eso no pasa con la foto jpg que no muestra la separacin. Este problema an no lo he expuesto al soporte de Insta360, pero lo har hoy mismo.
    Es una cmara casi recin salida, hoy, 14 de agosto del 2022. Se supone que los problemas que he comentado se arreglarn con firmware y/o con actualizaciones de Insta360 Studio y subir una estrella la valoracin.
    No he probado an otras opciones de la cmara como timelapse o hiperlapse o la gran prometedora fotografa nocturna, espero no encontrarme con problemas y disfrutar de estas opciones ya que la cmara me gusta.
    Para finalizar decir que se calienta mucho, son cosas que me hacen temer que no sea una cmara con continuidad, uno de esos inventos que enseguida se quedan obsoletos. Quizs se ha quedado en 6K por el excesivo calor, pero con dos sensores de una pulgada se supone que no debera haber problema para registrar video 360 a 8K.
    Supongo que la Insta360 One X2 y la One RS con precios ms bajos y calidad no tan inferior y siendo de accin, son una buena alternativa.

    No del todo perfecta, o sí. - Actualización 24-febrero-2023

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersEin starkes Stck Technik und ein starkes Stck Software.
    Die Bilder berzeugen, die Filme genauso.
    Nachdem man sich eingearbeitet hat,glaubt man keinen Film und auch kein Bild das man nicht selbst gefaket hat.Es wird eine ganze Weile dauern bis man mit Hard und Software umgehen kann.Man braucht einen kompetenten Computer und ein Spitzen Handy,aber dann ist es von Profiarbeit nicht so weit entfernt.Der Preis ist zwar hoch,aber dafr hat man ein Gert,dessen man nicht so schnell mde wird.Ich bereue den Kauf nicht.Aber man braucht auch Zeit!

    Golden Review Award: 30 From Our UsersThis camera did not work out for me so I went with the x3.

    Side note – when I was not happy with my order Insta360 contacted me directly to make it right. OUTSTANDING customer service and resolution.

    That is a very rare for a company so at the end of the day there was a very positive outcome.

    I have been using the camera just for a few days, and I considered buying an 360 cam for a long time. The downside was always the quality of the image, resolution and quality of the video when it gets a little darker.
    This camera is so much fun, I can’t tell you how much I enjoy it. For now, I have not found any major issues. The only “downside” is that it is not really waterproof (only splash/rain proof), but I am sure that Insta360 will release a casing for diving etc. very soon… at least I hope so for holidays at the beach 😉

    Highly recommend also watching many reviews on YouTube that made me buy the camera in the first place – they often inspire with their example videos what you can make with this!

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersVengo de una Insta one R twin edition, es decir con modulo 4K y modulo 360.
    El modulo 4K no se si he llegado a utilizarlo porque ya tengo otras cmaras como la Gopro para eso, con lo cual el nico uso que le daba era al modulo de 360.
    Al ver este nuevo modelo decid vender la mia y lanzarme a por esta, cierto que es cara pero para el uso que le doy me venia como anillo al dedo.
    Valorar que aunque sigue siendo modular es bastante mas grande y la posicin de uso es vertical, lo cual tambin es mas natural para la grabacin en 360.
    La comparacin siempre va a ser en modo 360 y es que la supera en todo y por mucho. Dos lentes de una pulgada es lo que tiene, mayor resolucin y mejor imagen sin hablar en condiciones con poca luz que es impresionante.
    Se ve espectacular y el cambio en el core tambin lo he podido apreciar ya que vengo del modelo R, va todo mas fluido.
    Es un cambio sustancial y tambin lo es en el precio, pero si piensas lo que vale el modelo R o RS con la lente Leica de una pulgada y ves que este lleva dos lentes de ese tipo, los nmeros salen.
    La mejor cmara 360 del momento y con una App excelente y que no para de actualizarse.
