Insta360ONE RS Twin Edition – Waterproof 4K 60fps Action Camera & 5.7K 360 Camera with Interchangeable Lenses, Stabilization, 48MP Photo, Active HDR, AI Editing

Insta360 One RS reviewIf you’re interested in capturing your sports, activities, or even just your daily life, the Insta360 One RS is an excellent option to look at. I’ve had a lot of fun with it and it takes amazing and high-quality videos, photos, andI bought the Insta360 One RS Twin edition, and I think this represents the best value for so many people as it utilizes the modular nature of the camera and lets you have a 4K action camera AND a 360 camera without paying the high price of buying two separate cameras. The modularity of this camera and the superb video quality and in-camera stabilization are the primary featuresThe build quality is phenomenal, and the pieces of the camera fit together solidly and securely. The One RS Twin edition comes with 5 pieces: the battery base, the Core, the 4k Boost mod, the 5.7K 360 mod and the mounting bracket (frame). I have never felt like the pieces would accidentally come apart once they are put together. There is a small slide switch that must be moved to unlock the pieces of the camera. The frame has the standard finger mount so you can mount your Insta360 One RS to any existing action camera mount you may already have. The best part of the frame is that the camera is loaded from the side. This makes removing the camera and changing the lens a very quick process. It’s important to remember the camera must be put together and mounted in the frame for it to be water proof. I have taken the Insta360 swimming with both the 4K boost lens and the 5.7K 360 lens without issue. The frame also acts as a heat sink to prevent the camera from overheating. I haven’t experienced any issues with this camera overheating. The frame also has a microphone cover to get better sound quality when you’re doing all the fun things this camera is made for. I have made videos while running in windy conditions and the mic picked up my voice perfectly!The image quality with the 4K Boost lens is very crisp and the Vivid color profile is beautiful. Regarding color, you are able to shoot video in Vivid, Standard, or LOG (flat) color profiles.The One RS can shoot video in a 2:35 aspect ratio at 6K, so if you’re looking to give your videos that cinematic look, this is the option for you. The One RS with the 4K Boost lens can also shoot in 4K up to 60fps, 2.7k up to 100 fps, and 1080p at 120 fps. I really enjoy slowing my footage down. Filming with the 360 lens is a real treat! The 360 lens captures everything around the camera so you can choose which direction you want to see in the video in post-production and export it as such. Working with the 360 footage takes a little longer than filming with a normal lens (that only shows the direction you point it), but the results are amazing. All your friends will be wondering how you got those shots. The very best part of using the 360 lens is that the app is able to remove the selfie stick from the image so it appears as if the camera if floating around you. A tip for first time 360 camera users is to ensure the camera is positioned straight directly above the selfie stick. If the camera is not straight on the selfie stick, you may see a little of the selfie stick in your video).The camera takes excellent photos too, but I don’t use it for photos. The video is just too good for me to want to take still shots.Video stabilization is next-level. It really is amazing how I can do so much stuff (running, biking, etc) with the camera shaking and the final video comes out looking smooth.Battery life is good and I usually can take the camera out for a day of shooting without having to recharge. This is probably because I take a lot of short videos. The camera specs say the battery will last 75 minutes when filming in 4K, and I think that is probably accurate. I think the best thing I can say about the battery life is that I don’t have battery anxiety from it. This is a good thing!I expect good quality from Insta360, and the camera delivers. What I like most is how convenient it is to have the modular camera, so I can get so many more interesting videos without having to take two different cameras with different batteries. I don’t leave home without this camera.

Insta360 ONE RSAfter having this camera for a few days. I can say I am impressed. I own the ONE X2 and the GO2 from Insta360. Both cameras are nice but I wanted something to compete with my GoPro Hero 9. Looking at the ONE RS and this Twin Edition it makes perfect since to go with this camera if you are looking for a 4k action camera and a 360 camera.The two lens allow you to be so much more creative. Getting normal action camera shots and the wild 360 shots all from one camera. Here are my pros and cons so far.Pro:-Multi lens compatible-compact size-amazing stabilization-easy to use-nice tough screen-great case design, easy to take the camera in and out of it-amazing app for editing-No memory card errors like GoPro has all the time.Cons:-sound, this is a downfall of all action cameras-low res 360 when exported-no ens cover for the 4k camera-4k Lens is not replaceable like the GoPro 9 and 10 areFor the week that I have had this camera I am impressed with it. After using 3 different GoPro’s over the years, and also using the ONE X2 and GO2 cameras I feel Insta360 has a great camera with the ONE RS. The new 4k boost lens is nice since it has in camera flow state stabilization. This will save time if you don’t want to use the app and go right to your favorite video editing software.If you have used the GoPro Hero 9 and 10 you will know the touch screens are not as good as they should be. The ONE RS seems to have solved this issue. The screen feels more like a phone screen and response to your touch quickly and accurately.The number of accessories that are out already is really nice. Most of the ONE R accessories will work with the ONE RS. Also if you have a ONE R you can upgrade batteries, the Core or Lens if you want. No need to buy the whole camera. I hope that Insta360 sticks with this design for years to come.Having a Insta360 camera now that can recored in 4k is a really nice add to my camera collection. I feel in the months to come I will use this camera a lot more than some of my others. Having the two lens and the ease of use really helps with that.
