Smooth, Stable Footage

Yes, the Insta360 ONE RS is an action camera, but you better believe it’s built to make that footage shine. The Insta360 ONE RS comes with FlowState Stabilization, a strong algorithm within the camera that mimics a gimbal. The result? Smooth, easy-to-watch footage that followers and clients will adore.

Crisp, High-Resolution Content

As the 48-megapixel sensor makes clear, the Insta360 ONE RS is not messing around when it comes to content quality. Not only is this four times more megapixels than before; it also works in tandem with the camera’s PureShot mode to capture content with enhanced dynamic range and minimal noise. Also, the Insta360 ONE RS is the only action camera with HDR video mode crafted for action sports.

Invisible Selfie Stick

Whether you’re creating pseudo drone shots or capturing third-person perspectives with yourself in the frame, the Insta 360 ONE RS’s invisible selfie stick is up for the challenge. The 360 lens was built to hide the selfie stick in your footage.
