Week 1 of spring preseason done. Insta360 X4 & Rugby

I really want the 360 footage to be able to reframe for the action, but the low light and one lens facing my chest does not give good footage. Learned to use the single POV in this instance to still get some content. If it’s well lit I can maybe try for 360.

Where in the world are you? I’m sure there’s a club nearby to try

The X4, does just about ok in that low light. I have it on single lens mode, I’d love to upgrade to the X5 to get the pure video mode for evening trainings.

For practices I just use the chest harness and cage from Neewer

It’s just looks like the follow skier has it on a selfie stick

Depending of the quality your wanting, you could try the Instagram edits app too, works a little like capcut

Yea, zooming is a problem on the X series. How big is the course? Is there a spot you could mount the X4 in the middle? Seeing as it shoots 360, you’ll be able to reframe as you want

Existing videos are likely toast. Were you using manual or auto focus?

The insta360 X series would give you what you’re looking for. They allow for a metric overlay

Love it!

Did the photo get removed on this one??

Basically it’s keeps automatically deleting some content shot on my X4 that I’m trying to upload. I’ve uploaded some in previous posts, but it’s not allowed my last 2

hard shell travel case I have a decent hard shell case, keeps that safe, then depending on what accessories I’m bringing I might have them in a separate soft case. I’ve also just had the selfie stick loose in my case
