Motorcycle Monday and a lot of people have been asking what camera Iāve been running lately, so here it is the Insta360 X5.
No drone shots here, no extra crew⦠just me riding, recording everything in 360, and then going back later to piece it all together in editing. Itās a different way of doing things, but honestly itās been a blast so far.
The Insta360 X5 is a 360 action camera built to capture everything around you at once. It shoots up to 8K 360 video, using dual 1/1.28ā sensors for sharper detail, better color, and stronger low-light performance than older 360 setups. In real terms, it means I can focus on the ride and not worry about missing the shot.
It also runs FlowState stabilization, so even when the bike gets moving and things get a little rough, the footage stays smooth without needing a gimbal. Itās waterproof up to about 10 meters (33 ft), so weather doesnāt really slow it down either.
The biggest thing for me is just hitting record and riding. No stressing about angles or framing in the moment. Later on I can go back and reframe everything front view, side view, behind me whatever tells the story best.
Iāll be real though itās a powerful setup and Iām still learning the tech side of it. Iām not the most high-tech guy, but thatās part of the fun. Figuring it out ride by ride.
Happy Motorcycle Monday more rides, more content, and more miles coming soon. Appreciate everyone following along on this Bikes and Bites journey.
