Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

@luanb, interesting, cool that you can upload 360 on YouTube and use mouse to determine viewpoint...


Yeah, it even works upto 8K, took a few days to process though.

My test upload of an 8K 360 video.

@skimottaret, I think 360 camera can work, this 360 video clip is from 4 years ago using a Qoocam 360, which is a lot worse than the Insta360 X3/4. The great thing about a 360 camera is that you don't have to worry about where to point it.

Use the mouse to move the camera direction.


That is cool. How do you enable the 360? Do you just upload the original 360 footage to YouTube?

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Exported from the Insta360 Studio/App as 360 videos and then upload to Youtube. It's automatic from there, you can tell if it has worked by a 360° symbol under the thumbnail view, once the video has been processed.

@phil_w, Thanks very helpful, I will give the 360 a miss !

With the DJI you need to zoom in a bit to avoid seeing your own shadow and to stay far enough away from the subject but keeping the distance right can be tricky when on an open piste and avoid running into anyone when staring at the phone ! Also if you are too far or close the gimbal will get into the shot.. Still playing around with it but not sure it will be that useful.


This is with the original Insta 360 from a few years back using the track feature. Used in the first and 3rd videos. You need to be quite close to the target for useful footage as you see ckearly in the 3rd one

 Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.
