  • Testing out the Idolcam! Blogging camera

  • For me latest Insta360 camera is much better blogging camera, as you can frame in post also :-)

  • This design looks like an industrial security camera, not a sleek consumer product, maybe put it inside a crystal ball :)

  • Seems like they got existing 3 axis gimbal (exactly such form is available) and added other parts including camera.

    But as I said, can't compare with Insta360, as they have slick product.

  • This seems like, at best, a budget competitor for the Osmo+. You can't change lenses on the Osmo, but it has a zoom (24-70ish, I think). Also, the Osmo uses a standard filter thread so ND's are not too expensive. Plus, for some of the jib type of shots that they are hyping in their video, you can buy a third-party extension arm for Osmo that lets you maintain control of the camera.
