Today on Potato Jet, we dive into the world of the new Insta360 X5 camera, a gadget that promises to revolutionize your filming experience. With a larger sensor than its predecessor, the X4, this camera delivers enhanced image quality, dynamic range, and low-light performance. It's like going from a Fiat Panda to a Lamborghini in terms of sensor size. The X5's ability to replace lenses adds a rugged touch, allowing you to take this bad boy anywhere without fretting over scratches. And let's not forget the sponsor, Insta3, for making this review possible.
When Potato Jet showcases the X5's sample footage, jaws drop at the stunning visuals achieved with minimal tweaking. From golden hour shots to indoor scenes, the camera's auto exposure and color settings impress without the need for excessive digital sharpening. HDR and Pure Shot modes offer further versatility, catering to different shooting conditions. The AI selfie tracking mode is a game-changer, simplifying reframing tasks with a single button press.
But it's not all sunshine and rainbows with the X5. Potato Jet delves into the nitty-gritty, discussing the slight softness in 5.7K resolution compared to 8K and the potential ghosting in Pure Shot mode. Despite these minor drawbacks, the X5's price point of $549.99, which includes a replaceable lens kit, makes it a tempting offer. The camera's waterproof feature and stitch line calibration add to its appeal, ensuring a seamless user experience. Potato Jet's journey with the X5 showcases the camera's potential to elevate your content creation game, offering a glimpse into the future of videography.
