Will the interchangeable lenses for the Osmo 360 2 be compatible with the first-generation Osmo 360?
It’s incredible how much the price of the first generation has dropped; I just bought it two months ago, and now the new one is coming out. I thought about selling it to buy the new one, but with the price drop, I don't think anyone will buy it.
As per me dji wins
Morever 4k at 240 fps, night recording upto 60 fps and cheaper then x6. I am..sold.
Any idea when will the international launch take place?
Hey guys, I have the original 360 footage from my Osmo 360, but the selfie stick is visible in the video.
Has anyone dealt with this before? What’s the best way to remove it in post?
Would love to know what software/technique you used and how you did it. Looking for some practical advice from someone who’s actually done it.
Thanks!
I purchased it yesterday in India. Waited for Osmo 360 2 for too long. I gotta leave for a 3 month long trip tomorrow. I got few questions as Im still not used to the device.
Has anyone came across any videos?
After using the Insta360 X5 for two months and the original Osmo 360 for about a year, I’ve come to the conclusion that last-gen 360 cameras are basically only good for one thing: reframing flat video. The 8K 360 video quality is nowhere near sharp enough to be immersive in a VR headset.
Photo mode on previous hardware was equally frustrating for different reasons:
With the current gen (X6 / Osmo 360 Gen 2), it looks like 8K video hasn't fundamentally changed without higher bitrates or real supersampling. But the photo specs caught my eye—both now push 120MP HDR stills (assuming X6 has it like before) and 16K timelapses.
My primary use cases for these cameras aren't action vlogging, but:
Has anyone had hands-on time to test the real-world photo quality, dynamic range, and processing times between the X6 and Osmo 360 Gen 2? Is the 120MP actually usable this time around without insane compression or workflow bottlenecks? This is pretty much the sole deciding factor for whether I upgrade and which one I pick.
I honestly don’t even know whether to laugh or cry at this point.
Ever since the original Osmo 360 launched a year ago, the community and forums have been practically begging DJI for one very specific, very reasonable firmware update: supporting HDR mode for 120MP pano photos, or at the very least, unlocking RAW (DNG) for 120MP stills.
Everyone was convinced this would arrive in a future update because the hardware was clearly capable of it, and it felt like an obvious missing software feature at launch. People waited. Months went by. Threads were bumped. DJI reps gave the usual "I've forwarded your feedback to the R&D team" canned response.
Fast forward to today: Osmo 360 2 is announced.
And guess what? 120MP HDR is finally here! Except it’s locked behind a brand new $400+ camera, serving as one of the very few, minuscule "upgrades" on the Gen 2 spec sheet.
Are you serious, DJI?
Instead of supporting early adopters who bought into your first-gen ecosystem with a basic software patch, you literally held back basic photo processing capabilities just so you'd have something to put on the Gen 2 marketing slide.
This isn't hardware limitation; this is pure, textbook artificial segmentation.
I love DJI’s hardware quality, but this practice of treating software-level fixes as "next-gen exclusive features" is getting ridiculous.
Anyone else feeling completely disrespected as a Gen 1 buyer?
I thought I would have been let down by the Osmo like I was with the instatrash but the footage speaks for itself and it's that simple. Near edge to edge clarity from the footage from not 1 but 6 different youtubers footage. Night and day looks good and not jello like.. Quite impressed.
However*** I want to see pure spherical video to make final judgement but I have already ordered mine. :)
Has anyone found a real video where the two products are getting tested against eachother?
Hello, I would like to know from you experts, if the batteries of the Action 5 Pro are compatible with the new Osmo 360 II. THANK YOU!!
“The Osmo 360 II records native panoramic video at 7680 by 3840 pixels from 24 to 60 frames per second, meters up to 14.5 stops of dynamic range by DJI’s lab numbers, and takes user-replaceable lenses hardened with an ion sputtering coating, according to the specifications DJI published at launch. (…)
The night mode, listed as AI Super Night Scene 2.0 in DJI’s Chinese materials, now records at up to 8K60. In the D-Log M color profile, dynamic range tops out at a rated 13.5 stops.
Slow motion gets two lanes. Panorama mode captures 4K at 240fps for 8x slow motion, and DJI Studio can stretch native 8K60 footage through AI frame interpolation into what DJI rates as the equivalent of 8K480, a trick reserved for Apple’s M-series Macs.
A subject-tracking mode keeps a person centered in the spherical frame and exports a flat 4K30 video automatically through the DJI Mimo** **app or DJI Studio. Single-lens mode reaches 4K120 in ultra-wide, and the camera switches lenses mid-recording at up to 4K60 without stopping the file. (…)
The camera pairs with a new 2,150 mAh cold-resistant pack, sold separately at 189 yuan, about $26, and rated for -4 F to 113 F (-20 C to 45 C). It still accepts the older Osmo Action packs at 1,950 and 1,770 mAh. That cross-compatibility is the quiet win for anyone already carrying DJI action cameras. The charger tray in the bag does not care which body the battery feeds.”
The new AI Editing features keep getting hyped, but I have yet to see an actual good video output of it from anyone. Just people talking about how’s game changing it is without showing any footage.
AutoEdit 1.0 was trash. I tried using 2.0, but to me, it looks about the same, with maybe better transitions.
I’m assuming all you need to do is update the app and auto-edit a video for 2.0?
As for Moments Pro, I just don’t see why anyone would ever pay for it. I got the free demo and made two videos. One was genuinely good, and I was really impressed. But the other one was really disappointing, and I would feel ripped off if I had paid for it. Also, you cannot make adjustments or change the music.
My X6 is still in shipping, does anybody have any AI director videos they’d like to share or let us know how the feature is?
dumb/inexperienced question: has anyone tried both of their apps in editing 360 videos? im still looking for the "how to" videos on editting their 360 videos. as of the moment i have seen insta360 app in youtube and it seems easy to use (as long as you keep the vids short.
my dilemma comes from the fact i am only going to edit vids using my iphone 15pm. my laptop is too slow (thinkpad t90) so it might be faster if i use my phone.
what i just want is tracking, easier re-framing, and dewarped footage. still waiting for influencer/vlogger osmo360ii sample vid (hoping brandon li makes one).
osmo360ii possibly has lower price, but X6's editting software might be worth the difference (?)
Since not everyone can access the comparison page, I'm posting it here.
There still isn't much out there...
I was about to buy the Pocket 4P but I saw the Osmo 360 II Specs and its mind blowing, help me decide
So Insta360 X6 has 4 wind-shielded microphones and one more mic that is fully inside, so NO wind can get there?
Or it somehow works on different principle, only capturing those strong vibrations and not even like voices outside?
If it has good results, I can imagine MANY action cams should introduce this in the future
I found this on YouTube. It gives a nice overview of how the case works.
Lets analyze how good is the biggest DJI Osmo 360 competitor before reframing, colorgrading and other edits
