In the world of action cameras, GoPro has been leading the game, but there are some names, like the Insta360, that are rigorously pushing the boundaries. Yet again, with the latest outing in Insta360 GO 3, the company is making uncanny power moves.
One of the standout action cameras in the making, Insta360 GO 3 comes packed – least to say – with innovative features and cutting-edge technology. For a perspective, the tiny powerhouse comes with a flip touchscreen and is usable in detached mode to work standalone, all the while relaying clips wirelessly to the unit with the screen. All in all, the camera is slated to revolutionize the way we capture our adventures.
Designer: Insta360
Weighing in at only 35g, the Insta360 GO 3 is incredibly lightweight and compact, making it the perfect companion for any adventure, cycling day out, or a vlog in the kitchen, from first-person perspective. The lightweight and snappable design makes it even more delightful coz you can easily take it anywhere without any hassle.
For a camera, size is secondary; image quality is what really matters. To that accord, the Insta360 GO 3 comes with f2.2 aperture, and support for INSP and DNG formats for photos and videos are captured in MP4. Speaking of videos, the Insta360 GO 3 offers a range of recording options: you can record in 1080p, upward to 2.7K resolutions at varied frame rates. It allows you to shoot videos in 1080p at 120 FPS.
Photography enthusiasts and adventure junkies will also appreciate the camera’s diverse range of resolutions available for capturing photos. Whether you prefer the square format 1:1, or Instagram-worthy 9:16, the Insta360 GO 3 offers endless creative possibilities alongside the standard delivery.
The camera also boasts three video recording modes to enhance your shooting experience and give you even more flexibility to capture the perfect shot. In FreeFrame mode, you can modify the aspect ratio of your footage after shooting, while Timed Capture is for the lazy adventurers who can set the GO 3 to start recording at a specific time, when you’re snoozing or busy setting up the tent at sunset.
In addition to freedom and camera prowess, the Insta360 GO 3 also takes stability seriously. With FlowState Stabilization technology the first-person videos or the action recording will all be jitter and shake-free, no matter the orientation or speed you are using it. And with a specified battery life of up to 170 minutes, the Insta360 GO 3 keeps you shooting for longer without interruptions. Additionally, remote, hands-free voice control, and live preview functionality make it easy to control the camera in real-time. Whereas to enhance the shooting experience, GO 3 comes with a versatile magnetic design and a range of handy accessories.
The camera itself is waterproof down to 5m if you were thinking of taking it down to capture yourself with marine life. Insta360 GO 3 is available through Amazon with a price tag of $399.99. At that price, this action camera offers tremendous value for the features and capabilities it brings to the table.
