Wow, thanks for the thorough review! But hey, I actually bought the OM6 before watching this video, and it's been working like a charm for me so far.

[CityScapesLawnCare]

Wow just wow, truly impressed with your ability to explain and show just how this gimble works. will be saving this vid to come back too when i get mine in just a few days. Thank your for your work on this.

[WillNewcomb]

Take time to practice. If you're new to gimbals like me, there's definitely a learning curve!

One drawback of the Flow is the limited Tilt range. But there's a work around as you mentioned. Extend the selfie stick and hold it out sideways and down. Now lift up and the Rotation axis functions instead of the tilt axis.

Most comprehensive video I have seen on the Flow. my Flow will be here by end of day today so I am doing my homework. I will use it for Real Estate videos along with my Insta 360 1 inch.

[John_Morritt]

I think I read somewhere that Hand Gestures are a feature of the FLOW

[allenmyers]

I always enjoyed my OM4 and found little advantage in the newer DJI models. It seemed to me that they were always taking away something to add a new feature such as larger battery in exchange for a selfie stick. I've ordered the 360 flow and look forward to trying out all its features.

[muleyg]

Thanks very much for your video. I do find one thing that Instago360 Flow could/should improve on and that is the built in tripod. In my opinion, it is a little too flimsy.

[markockwell]

I am using the OM5 - but after watching your Video = I have just ordered the 360 Flow Creative Pack, can not wait to test it.... Cheers. 👍👍

[hearttalkph]

Thank you Benett for this amazing insta360 flow features, it gives me a décisions which one i will choice insta360 or DJI OM6. I will love insta360 after i watched your review 🥰

[ManuelPrado]

Thanks for the video.

Question, can the Insta360 App record in Cinematic mode like the native iPhone App? I have the OM4 and this one cannot.

[gilbertguerin]

Interested in the 360 part, which could make it a really attractive product, but Mike from 360 Vroomers indicates the following:

"It sounds exciting in concept but the stitching is not good. And it’s only 4096 x 2048. You can save the photos to use in PTGui, but if you do that, I think you might as well shoot with a DSLR. So the 360 pano feature is just for fun or as a gimmick."

If this is really the case, it's a pity...
What are your thoughts on the subject?
Is it possible to confirm with a thorough test on this aspect?

[physiotherapyinsider]

Hope you can shoot videos using Flow Gimbal. Cinematic tips. Kudos to you! 👍👍👍

[tuccobuibui]

Great review ! Thanks ! Is there a way to using apple cinematic mode at the same time as the app? So that we can benefit from this superb tracking etc and at the same time the blurry effect?

[alexaelleliam]

Hi there! Great review. Wondering if this gimbal could work with ND filters attached to the phone

[benjaminpjr.]

Hi Mate! Can you switch cameras while doing video recording? Thanks.

[CrownPrabir]

Hi, many thanks for this awesome tutorial. Can you switch the front and back camera 🎥 while shooting a video using the instaflow 360 gimbal and the app installed on an iPhone 15pro max. A response will be very highly appreciated. Thank you so much.

[kostantinoskaranikolas]

I have the Vivo X90 Pro. The application Insta360 does not allow you to have all the functions shown in this video. You have to check the compatibility first. If you have an iPhone it's ok at all. Excellent video!!!

[SubinSyd]

Hi Benett, thanks for the review! can you give me the tip to create spin shot using Insta360 Flow? The FPV mode with wheel lets me rotate it, but I can't lock the object so I can't get cinematic footage

[dianefolan]

Sorry im older gen and bit slow on tech stuff. But, this gimbal im gonna buy. Was watching other vids of yours, may i missed something. Where do you store all vids off yr phone?? I dont want to cram up. Whats the best way with out spending lots cos im just starting. Thankyou

[crystaljohnson]

Hi! Thanks for the awesome video once again. Quick question: I am in the setup mode and at the 360 app; however, unlike my Zhiyun and previous gimbals, this app will not work unless I give permission to my ENTIRE photo album. Am I the only one that doesn't want anyone and everyone thumbing through whatever they want?
