Adventurers, when you’re out there doing cool stuff, you can’t just take your phone out of your pocket to record. Snowboarding? Good luck open the camera app with those thick gloves on. Mountain biking? Hope that camera shake doesn’t make you motion sick enough to hurl. Wakeboarding? Sure, so long as you have a big bag of rice to drop it in when you get home. What you need is a solid action camera built to capture your most epic feats. For a limited time, Amazon has the Insta360 X5 8K 360° action camera. Normally, you’d find this selling for $550, but the discount has taken it down to just $465. That will end up saving you a good $85 while the deal is still active.
Capture Everything
With this camera, you can record in an utterly stunning and crisp 8K resolution at 30 frames per second. The camera records in a full 360 degrees, so you can capture every angle with incredible visuals.
Being a 360° camera, you don’t actually even need a gimbal to stabilize your shots. the Insta360 X5 is able to lock onto the horizon to keep everything looking face-up the way you’d expect it to be while removing all the bumps and shakes that recording with a traditional camera would result in. Even full rotations can be leveled out, so go ahead and do that flip.
If you’re operating the camera on the end of a selfie stick, you won’t have to worry about your accessory getting in the way of the shot. The Insta360 X5 is actually able to intelligently remove the selfie stick from view in the recording.
If you’re looking to share your footage across social media as a traditional flat video, you can choose InstantFrame Mode which will frame your shots automatically to either track you or lock itself at a fixed angle. You’ll still be able to access the 360° view later.
At full charge, the Insta360 X5 can record up to 208 minutes. When it dies down, you can fast-charge it back up to 80% in only 20 minutes.
Built to Last
The lens that comes with the X5 is made to be super durable, able to withstand the beating of whatever you throw at it. If it does take on any damage, no worries. The lens is fully replaceable.
Don’t be afraid of taking your action camera on the water with you. The Insta360 X5 can handle being submerged up to 49 feet (15 meters).
