Want to get high quality low light footage when shooting with the Insta360 X3? Find out how in this video!

Using the Insta360 X3 in low light conditions or night time requires you to set up your camera properly. 360 cameras tend to struggle in these conditions but you can get some good footage if you know the right settings to use.

The X3 features larger sensors than most other 360 cameras so it is actually more likely to work well in low light. In this video I'll show you the exact setting you need to achieve sharp & clear video.

I'll show you the correct settings for both moving and non moving video, as well as some general shooting tips to avoid shaky or blurry video.

my only critisism with this channel is I didnt find you sooner! I blame you for about 2 months of absolutely shocking low light footage I have made, only to watch this video and instantly (liteally just say in my room here) can see the MASSIVE quality improvements! DAMN YOU! At least it gives me the excuse to go and take it all again! haha.
What a fantastic channel, I have subbed, between you and Best360 you guys rock!
I start a channel myself in a few days walking across thailand with this bloody 360! Whenever you guys fancy a holiday, come to thailand and ill show you around dude! - Chris (Bristol)!
Gonna recommend this video to a few mates! keep up the great work

I should've watched this before I shot a 360 Christmas lights video in Lisbon ah ah Next time I'll try your settings. It really does make a *huge* difference in quality with the Insta360. Thanks so much for yet another great video!! Cheers from Lisbon, Portugal

What is clear to me with your night time video is the X3 is good enough(for me) with nighttime shooting. It's my first 360 and I find its versatility easily outweighs any perceived limitations. Cheers.

Thank you so much for the technique, setting up, I'm facing this problem with my Insta360 x3 and this clip made me understand how to shoot VIDEO in low light.

Very helpful, I went out and shot with these tips last night!

[AmazingPhilippines]

Cool! This info helps me learn the basics of my new Insta 360 here in the Philippines.

I've been "into" photography and videography since long before you were born, but this 360° vid is brand new to me, and maybe the most fun I've had in a while. I really appreciate these great hints as even though I NEVER use auto in my still photography, I've been almost exclusively in auto mode with the X3. I'll be using a lot more manual now. I do have to disagree a little with your advice to tighten up your muscles to get smoother moving videos. I've found by relaxing my muscles I've been able to move more smoothly. That's what works best for me.

Perfect! Short and concise!
Just got mine, my first ever ... and I'm not photograph!
Your video is a perfect starting point in my opinion!
Thanks a bunch!

Hi, I wanted to ask you. What are the best daytime settings in bright sunlight? Do you mention it in any video?

[schong]

Hi there, just checking do I need to remove the battery from the camera if I’m not a frequent user

[heathhoward]

Great video. I was a little frustrated with what I was getting out of the X3 in auto mode inside or at night. Actually thought my camera was faulty! This made a huge difference.

[kahntul-ay]

Thank you for this very good video on X3 settings.

[marcogagliardi]

Hi! which are the best settings for the big live concerts at the stadium in the low light condition?

[rodrigodepierola]

Thanks for the video. I've had my x3 for a week and by sheer conincidence I've used it very low light three times. I knew that auto was going to have trouble in low light, plus moving by I dind't know the camera enough to going into manual and see the best results. Now I have a base from which to start.
