In addition, it adds a new Active HDR video mode and 6K widescreen shooting for ultra-high-definition videos. The new lens module shoots photos at up to 48-megapixels and creates more detailed 4K videos than the last generation.
The star of the show is the new 4K Boost lens module that features a large 1/2-inch image sensor and a 16mm (equivalent) f/2.4 lens. The Insta360 One RS is a solid choice for anyone in the market for an action camera (or 360 camera), and if the support for the system continues - as it seems it will - it's only set to get better and better.
INSTA 360 ONE X PROCESSING UPGRADE
That said, we applaud the way Insta360 has approached the upgrade path, allowing those already invested to purchase the new 4K Boost lens alone or the battery, core and mount to continue using their old lenses. We think most people will be extremely pleased with the vibrant and stable footage produced by this clever little camera.įor owners of the original Insta360 One R, we doubt you'll feel much urgency to upgrade. When it comes to pure image and audio fidelity, GoPro still has the edge (except for with stills), but with the Insta360 One RS, it would seem that the gap is narrowing. Beyond the price, there's also the fact that it's one less camera to pack for your next getaway, which is a huge benefit in itself. The Twin Edition as tested here comes in at little more than the GoPro Hero 10's suggested price - and you're essentially getting a GoPro Max equivalent thrown into the deal. For anyone who wants both an action camera and a 360 camera, the Insta360 One RS offers unmatched value.
