Actioncam

Although Insta360 is known for its panoramic video cameras, two years ago it released a tiny conventional actioncam called the Go. This week the company announced that model's new-and-improved sibling, the Go 2.

Insta360 has upgraded its pocket-sized 360-degree camera – but without adding to its already-beefy 5.7K resolution. The new Insta360 One X2 instead gets some extra intelligence designed to make it an easier, less fiddly and more useful video tool.

When it comes to actioncams, the name that everyone knows is GoPro. The company has just announced its latest model, the Hero9 Black, which is promised to be sharper, smoother and "screenier" than any of its predecessors.

Chances are good that you've not been getting much use out of your Hero8 Black for the last few months. Now macOS users can put their actioncams to work as a webcam thanks to some beta software launched by GoPro.

Back in 2018 we first heard about the Idolcam, a video camera designed specifically for vloggers. At the time, it was about to be the subject of a Kickstarter campaign. That project was successful, and the camera is now in production.

360-degree cameras are the action cams of the future – and Insta360 has found a way to combine their amazing capabilities with a more traditional GoPro-style setup for monster image quality. Meet the modular Insta360 One R, co-designed with Leica.

Remember when camcorders were simply … camcorders? They've now splintered into several sub-types, although GoPro has set about combining three of those into one unit, with its new Max.

The Snap Mount is designed to make donning an actioncam easier than ever – utilizing magnets.

GoPro has pulled back the curtain on the Hero8 Black, with improved stabilization, and the ability to connect hardware add-ons to the actioncam.

This tough, splashproof 4K action camera is hoping to take a bite out of the action camera market with smart pre-editing tools.

Drift Innovation is celebrating its 10th year in business by announcing the wallet-friendly and battery-efficient Ghost XL.

Insta360 has taken its excellent FlowState image stabilization tech and used it to build a remarkable new class of action camera.
