Insta360 X5 360° 8K Camera
The Insta360 X5 360 Action Camera Essentials Bundle includes the X5 camera, two 2400mAh rechargeable batteries, a fast-charge case, a 3.7′ Invisible Selfie Stick, lens guards, a lens cap, and a carry case. Capable of capturing HDR 8K30 360° PureVideo in both dual- and single-lens modes, the X5 supports advanced features such as Bullet Time capture, time shift, time-lapse, loop recording, and a 180 Mb/s bit rate for detailed, dynamic footage. Its rugged, action-ready design is natively waterproof up to 49 feet, and the upgraded battery delivers up to 88 minutes of continuous recording. AI-powered software enables intuitive shooting and editing, making it adaptable for a wide range of environments and creative workflows.
Powerful AI Algorithms
Equipped with larger 1/1.28″ sensors and a high-speed triple AI chip system, the X5 achieves vibrant, true-to-life colors and exceptional clarity in 360° footage. Supersampling from 11K to 8K enhances image detail for more immersive results. The upgraded Active HDR Mode supports 60 fps, capturing a wide dynamic range with excellent stabilization, even during fast-moving action.
8K30 360° PureVideo
The X5 captures 360° video in ultrasharp 8K resolution—offering 78% more pixels than 5.7K—for enhanced detail and clarity, especially when reframing footage in post. PureVideo technology combines advanced AI noise reduction and dynamic range optimization to ensure clean, vivid results across a range of lighting conditions.
Rugged, Replaceable Lens Design
The X5 features a modular lens system that allows for quick replacement of damaged lenses, minimizing downtime during shoots. Its ultra-hard optical film coating offers double the drop resistance of the X4 and effectively protects against scratches from keys, coins, and other metal objects.
Multicamera Shots and Instaframe Mode
The X5 enables a multicamera-style setup in a single compact device by capturing every angle in one 360° shot. With no need for additional gear or retakes, users can later select the best perspectives using AI-powered reframing tools in the Insta360 app. Instaframe Mode allows you to preset views—such as Selfie View or Fixed View—before recording to generate an instantly shareable flat video. While filming, you can also simultaneously capture a full 360° video, providing flexibility to reframe or discover new angles during post-production.
Invisible Selfie Stick for Third-Person Views
When mounted on a selfie stick, the X5 automatically removes it from the frame during editing, allowing you to create floating, third-person perspectives and dynamic aerial-style shots—no additional operator required.
Ultrawide POV
The X5 can be used like a traditional action camera to record 4K60 first-person perspective footage. MaxView in FreeFrame Video mode expands the field of view to 170° in 4K30. The camera also processes 72MP still images internally, delivering detailed results with low noise and accurate color.
Wind Guard and Clear Audio
The X5 features a multilayer Wind Guard with steel mesh that helps reduce wind noise during high-speed activities. An upgraded audio algorithm minimizes environmental noise for improved clarity, even while cycling or motorcycling. A new intelligent audio mode enhances vocal pickup without requiring external microphones, making it well-suited for vlogging.
AI Gesture Control
The X5 features AI-powered gesture control, allowing you to start/stop recording or take photos with simple hand gestures. This is ideal for group shots, noisy environments, selfie stick setups, wearing gloves, or when you prefer to avoid using voice commands and disturbing others.
Time-Lapse, Time Shift, Bullet Time Modes
The X5 offers a variety of creative shooting modes, including 11K 360° Time-Lapse for capturing sweeping views from a fixed position and 8K TimeShift for dynamic, sped-up footage while on the move. For cinematic slow-motion effects, the 5.7K120 Bullet Time mode recreates a dramatic rotating perspective similar to the iconic scenes from The Matrix.
2400mAh Battery
The X5 is equipped with a removable 2400mAh battery, offering extended shooting times compared to previous models. It provides up to 135 minutes of continuous recording at 5.7K30 in standard 360° mode, up to 185 minutes in Endurance mode at the same resolution, and up to 88 minutes when shooting in 8K30 mode.
2.5″ Touchscreen
Features a bright, durable 2.5″ touchscreen made from Gorilla Glass. This responsive display allows users to control the camera, switch shooting modes, adjust settings, and preview photos and videos directly on the device.
FlowState Stabilization
Utilize advanced FlowState Stabilization to maintain smooth and steady footage, even during high-motion activities such as biking, skiing, or surfing.
360° Horizon Lock
With 360° Horizon Lock, the X5 ensures that your footage remains level and steady regardless of how the camera is mounted or moved, maintaining a balanced horizon even during intense action or rotation.
Waterproof Design
The X5 is natively waterproof down to 49′, letting you capture underwater footage without the need for a case. For deeper dives, the separately available Invisible Dive Case extends the depth rating to 197′, making it suitable for scuba and other underwater activities.
Capture Modes
The X5 offers multiple intuitive shooting options for hands-free operation. Twist to Shoot Mode lets you start or stop recording—or snap a photo—by simply twisting your selfie stick twice, ideal when wearing gloves. Gesture Control enables photo and video capture with just a palm or peace sign, perfect for group shots or quiet environments. Voice Control 2.0 provides an upgraded, hands-free experience using voice commands for easy, remote operation.
Snap-On Mounting
The X5 features a magnetic mounting system for fast, tool-free setup changes. Ideal for action-packed activities like cycling, this system allows you to quickly reposition the camera for different angles. The swappable battery design also makes it easy to stay powered during extended shoots.
