New Insta360 X4 Camera offers 8K 360° video

Insta360 has just announced the launch of its latest innovation, the Insta360 X4, a flagship camera that promises to revolutionise 360° video with 8K resolution

Now available to buy, Insta360 is positioning it as a camera for a wide range of content creators, from casual enthusiasts to professional videographers.

Image Quality and Shooting Modes

The headline feature of the Insta360 X4 is that it offers 360° footage at a whopping 8K/30p, which is undoubtedly impressive in such a small package.

In addition, it is also capable of 5.7K at 60fps and 4K at 100fps, which will appeal to fast-moving action sports enthusiasts.

Furthermore, such high resolution means there are some handy features that make it as easy as possible for athletes and explorers to capture a moment without losing their concentration. Handy if you’re hurtling along a cliff edge on a mountain bike.

For example, the camera has a ‘shoot first, point later’ mode, which takes an entire 360° image that creators can crop into later to pick their desired frame.

The X4 also features an Invisible Selfie Stick effect, which automatically removes a selfie stick from the frame. This allows you to get footage from unique perspectives that looks like it was filmed with a drone or additional camera setup.

Additionally, the camera boasts an improved Single-Lens Mode with ultra-wide 4K/60p footage, making it ideal for action shots and first-person perspectives.
