Insta360 x3 cycling on my java j air fuoco under the moon roll effects #insta360x3

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I really love my new Insta360 X3 action camera. I finally got it after my GoPro Hero 10 bloated battery got stuck inside it and I inadvertently spoiled it. For now, I just keep it inside my cupboard hoping to one day be able to repair it. If ever!

Anyway, the Insta360 X3 is now my go-to action camera. What really sold me was the invisible stick. I've been wanting to use it to take videos of me cycling. The cool thing is because of the camera's 'blind spot' it can't see the stick below it. So, it seems invisible. Cool isn't it?

Insta 360 also has its own apps and users page. You can upload your videos there and learn tutorials too. I love the free video editing software and cool graphic effects available for free. I have used the sky cool painting and the moon roll effects for the above video.

Another cool feature of the Insta360 X3 is that it doesn't matter how you hold the stick or the camera, you'll get 360 views. You don't have to bend it like a GoPro to get a selfie. It'll actually show the stick in your video. I didn't know how the invisible stick work at first.

Insta360 114cm Invisible Selfie Stick

Yes, it'll take a 360 view. You'll then, edit the video and choose which POV aka point-of-view you want. For example, when I'm cycling, I can hold the selfie stick in front of me, over my shoulder, put it inside my backpack with the stick, sticking out like an antenna, etc.

When I'm at home, I can edit the video on my iPhone or Macbook. During editing, I can move around the video and choose which point of view I like or prefer. I might want a front view of my cycling. I can then choose another POV from the side, top, or back. Way cool!

What I also like about Insta360 apps for mobile phones is also I can choose which ratios I like. Be it 9:16 or 16:9. Since YouTube now has the #shorts video sharing mode, I can re-edit, re-pov, and re-ratio any videos I took with the X3. 

The video quality is very good and stable. You can also take quality pictures with it. Read up on their specs for more info. So far, I haven't had any problem editing the videos on my iPhone 13. There's no long pause or stutters. They also saved the editing on auto for you just in case. 

Insta360 X3 Battery

A couple of months back, or rather last year 2023, today is the 1st of 2024. Someone asked me about my GoPro, which I was using to record my cycling. He had wanted to buy a GoPro for a long time. I told him, I was the same as him and finally got it. However, I did think of getting the insta360.

He wasn't sure about the insta360 and his mind was rather made up to buy the GoPro. If he had asked me now whether to get the GoPro or Insta360 X3, I would have said get the X3. The video quality is on par with the GoPro. You can also do more creative stuff with the video taken with an X3.

In all, I'm satisfied with the insta360 X3 and plan to make more videos and probably some pictures too. So, don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel. Thank you all for the support in 2023. Happy New Year 2024 and wish you all the best in the coming year. Cheers!

it took me 9 mins cycling on my java j air fuoco gold road bike from punggol park to lor halus red bridge

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I have cycled to lor halus (google map) from punggol park (google map) a couple of times and was wondering how fast can I ride straight without stopping on my new Java J Air Fuoco road bike. I'm not a pro or even young. I have two bad knees and a slipped disc. My tummy won't allow me to go aero.

I'm still new to the bike and playing around with the 22-speed while cycling. I do cycles on my mountain bike to and fro from my house to work daily. So, I at least have some level of fitness. According to my Strava, I managed to reach the bridge which is 3.51km within 9:08 mins.

I do believe someone younger and fitter could get even lower timing. But, you'll have to be careful and watch your speed sometimes because there are many other cyclists and joggers blocking your way. Some like to hog the lane as if they own it.

My stats on Strava shows that my average speed was 23.1km/h. Avg Power is 207W. Frankly, I didn't really want to push myself harder as I've said, I'm not a pro or young. I have to take care not to hurt my knees and back further. That's why I believe someone could do a better timing.

If you're wondering, I used my GoPro Hero 10 to record this video. Someone asked me about the action camera the other day and I'm totally recommending it. I've had no issues taking videos and even pictures. You can check some of the videos I took on my youtube channel here.

I also told the guy about the Insta360 camera. He wasn't really interested in it. His mind seems set on the GoPro. He told me that some people complain about Hero10 and some say stick with Hero9. I told him, not to listen to what people 'think' too much and just go for whichever camera he wanted.

The fact of the matter is that every product has its pros and cons. You work through those. I had fun with my GoPro but then I did the mistake of putting a bloated battery inside it and got stuck. I did get it out but now it's not working. I'll send it for repair later, one day.

I decided to get the Insta360 because I was intrigued by the ability to hide the selfie stick. I didn't understand how it work at first as the holder keeps showing and blocking the view. I thought I needed software or the stick I got was a cheap fake. Turn out, I needn't put an extra camera adapter on it.

You just need to put the Insta360 camera on the stick and you don't even need to turn it towards you when taking video. It'll take a 360 view of the surrounding area and you can choose and edit the frame later. You don't need to take several different views or angle shots. Really cool!

My friends and family were asking and wondering how I took a back-view video of me cycling. Of course, I just need to put the selfie stick behind me by using the bike frame clamp. The way the 360 camera works, the blind spot under the camera won't show the stick. Voila!

I'm really beginning to love the Insta360 X3 camera. And, there's even free video editing software and more free cool features you can add to your video. They have several other products too. Depends on what you're going for and need. I'll be making more videos with the X3 so subscribe to my channel!

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I decided to get myself the Insta360 X3 action camera because my GoPro Hero10 went dead on me. It's my own fault as I forced one of the bloated batteries into the battery compartment without thinking. Something happened while prying it out and now it wouldn't charge or turn on again.

I'm going to get it repaired, someday. Meanwhile, I'm glad I got myself the Insta360. I've been considering it between the GoPro back then. I'm glad I waited as the X3 is super-awesome. The main reason I wanted it is because you can hide the selfie stick view in the video. Which is a cool feature.

Someone asked me about my GoPro Hero10 the other day. He has been pondering about getting it for years. I told him, it took me a while too to finally get it. And, I simply love it. My friend even commented about how good the quality of the video I took.

I did tell the guy about the Insta360 camera. But, his mind seems set on the GoPro. It's a brand name that people associate with quality videos. And, he's right. But, the insta360 offered something more and something different. Especially, for a cyclist who likes to make videos like me.

Now, with an Insta360 X3, I don't need to keep asking my nephew or anyone else to come along with me to go cycling or hiking. I can go solo and record myself. People won't know that I'm actually using a selfie stick. Just a moment ago, my friend asked how I record myself riding from behind? Lol.

I showed my niece a bit of my video on my insta360 yesterday and she was wondering where did I mount my camera. I told them all that you can basically mount it on any part of the bike. I also realized, I need another camera mount to support the stick as using one main isn't strong enough to support it.

If you want to mount your selfie stick on your bike, you need a good strong holder. The insta360 camera is a tad heavy and your selfie stick will probably slide down. That's why I decided to buy another mount with a double clamp. That'll hold it up. 

When going out cycling, most of the time, I'll carry a backpack. Yesterday, I got the idea of putting the selfie stick inside and there's actually a small holder that I can use to hold the stick straight up. I think it's supposed to be used as a key holder. That's a plus. I got a good top-down camera view.

The Insta360 X3 desktop and phone app is very good too. You can also watch some tutorials and videos from other users. I found the editing software to be simple, fast, and easy to use. I didn't understand how to use the keyframe at first but once you know how, you're set!

You can export your video to your favorite video editing software and upload it to your youtube channel or wherever. I'm not sure if you can edit direct without taking the MicroSD card out from the camera. I decided to use an adapter and transfer it to my MacBook after a few tries.

The video I uploaded on my youtube channel is the first one I took using my new Insta360 X3 action camera. And, it's been a blast. I love how you can set it to your choice keyframe from just one video. It is a 360-degree camera so you can choose from various points of view. Cool!

GoPro Hero 10 Vids and Pics Test Cycling on my Java Veloce Road Bike

Woodland Hills Camera GoPro HERO10 (Hero 10) Action (Black) with Deluxe Accessory Bundle – Includes: SanDisk Ultra 64GB MicroSD Memory Card, Carrying Case, Chest Mount Grip & Much More Black Kit

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I finally got a chance to go cycling and test out my new GoPro Hero 10. I'm glad I bought a multifunction bike computer and clamp mount. I used them to mount my GoPro for different views. Though, I forgot to turn the cam to face me.

Well, I can always try them out the next time I went cycling. It's actually kind of a little hassle as I had to screw and unscrew several times. But, I guess it's worth it. Nobody said, making a cycling video gonna be easy. Still, it was fun.

I really like the GoPro 360 mount adapter. I'm able to turn the camera left or ride while riding. Pretty nifty. Like I said, I can even turn the camera around to face me so that viewers can see the rider. The clamp mount was good and useful too. 

I can clamp my camera anywhere on the bike frame for different viewing angles. But, I was a little lazy and only decide to clamp it on the mainframe. It's a little low and only see my drop bar and up. Guess, it's another interesting point of view.

I also brought along my chest mount and selfie stick but decided not to use them. I don't like the idea of having to wear a chest mount all day long. I rarely use a selfie stick for anything. What's more, while cycling. But, I might do it some other day.

I wanted my nephew to come with me so that he can take a video of me riding the bike but he had to work. It'll be nice to have a whole view of the rider on the bike. Guess, I can always do it some other time too. There are still places I haven't gone to, yet.

Okay, I talk so much about the GoPro mount. How bout the camera itself? Well, this is my first ever GoPro and I'm really satisfied with it. I bought a CPL filter and I think it makes my pics and vids a little better. Yes, it does get hot. It is expected as there's no good cooling system for such small devices.

I don't intend to take long videos as in the end, you'll cut them later on. So, I just take certain videos that I think I'm going to use. That way, the camera will not get overheated. So far, I didn't have any problem with the camera. I have 3 batteries and I used 2 of them.

I like how smooth the video is. Although, at a certain point, it does shake when I go over the freaking too many road bumps. The pictures are not that bad either. Though, I still miss the zooming capabilities of my Nikon P950. Other than that, I'm a pretty satisfied customer.

Last but not least, I really love my Java Veloce road bike. It felt good riding on the road and I felt I could go far with it. Though, I should have worn my underwear cycling shorts with a gel pad. I still like cycling on my mountain bike but for long-distance, now I prefer a road bike.

Check out some of the photos I took with the GoPro Hero 10 below:

I think the pictures aren't bad at all. Pretty sharp. I thought I'd set it to Raw but it was saved as a jpeg. I might have done something that changed it and didn't realize it. Anyway, I'm the lazy type and if it's good enough to my eyes then it's good enough for others. Depends on your taste though.

If you're the type who spends a lot of time outdoor adventure and only have a GoPro, I think it'll be good enough. 

What do you guys think?

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I decided to get myself the multifunction bike computer mount holder. I found out later my cheap bike computer can't be mounted on it. But, I decided instead to mount my new GoPro Hero 10 on the top side. That way, I could easily see what I'm recording.

I also bought a GoPro 360 rotational mount adapter. I'll then be able to rotate the camera any, way I want. I could turn it to face the left or right side and even backward. I've always wanted to show a beautiful view of the river on the sides while I'm cycling.

I also bought an extra GoPro holder that I can clamp anywhere on the bike frame. I'll be able to take videos from several different views. I thought of buying a selfie stick bike mount holder. So, that I can take a whole view of myself while cycling. 

You'll need something like a double clamp mount. One to clamp on your bike and the other side to clamp your selfie stick. I like the idea of the insta360 invisible selfie stick. You can record the view from behind or in front of your bike without showing the stick. Pretty cool trick.

I'm just preparing all the things I need to make my video when I go riding. Been planning for a long while. Especially, after decided to finally got myself a GoPro. I like how small and portable the GoPro is back then. Though, nowadays, you have much smaller camera.

Having a much smaller camera that takes better quality action pictures/videos that you can then transfer and share on social media. The other day, I bought the SJCAM C100+ but didn't realize how important stabilization is. Especially, if you wanna take action videos.

The good thing about the multifunction computer mount is that I can put my GoPro either at the top or under it. Of course, I can also put my speedometer on it too. If I want to, I can also put my torchlight. Though, I don't think I will. 

I'm still thinking if I want to buy another new bike computer. The one I had is a rather small cheap version that I only wanted to see the speed while riding. Now, that I have it, I realized, I can use it to see the time, distance, average speed etc. Pretty useful info.

Anyway, what you guys think of my Java Veloce road bike cockpit setup? I might change it up later on as I test which is the best way to mount my GoPro and other accessories. Now, if only we have long weekend holidays for me to try out my ride and setup.

What do you guys think?

sjcam c100+ video test riding my Java Veloce road bike

SJCAM C100+ Action Camera Sports 4k 30FPS Video WiFi 15MP Cameras EIS Stabilization Small Underwater Waterproof Cam with Wearable and Mounting Camera Accessories for Sports, Travel, Vlog

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I finally got myself a cheap SJCAM C100+ action video cam to record while I'm riding my mountain or road bike. But, I'm kind of disappointed because it's too shaky. Well, I can't expect much from the stabilization department since it did say on the box suitable for making tik tok or Instagram videos.

I did look at other product offers but decided to try the C100+. The video quality in 2K is actually not bad. I didn't try the 4K as I wanted to save space and quick download. As I learned that for youtube, it's better to record in 4K than downgraded and upload in 1080p instead of the other way round.



SJCAM C100+ Action Camera Sports 4k 30FPS Video WiFi 15MP Cameras EIS Stabilization Small Underwater Waterproof Cam with Wearable and Mounting Camera Accessories for Sports, Travel, Vlog

I had some problem connecting the cam to my phone as I didn't know how to activate the wifi. Only after watching their youtube video instruction that I learned you just need to press the power button longer to start and double press to connect via wifi.

The procedure is actually the same for my Nikon P950 camera. When you want to start recording, just press the power button once and press it again to stop. Of course, you can't watch what you're taking as it doesn't have any LCD screen in front or at the back.



Nikon COOLPIX P950

You can watch what you're recording once you download and start the SJCAM app on the google play store. Just click the button to connect via wifi and click the special sjcam wifi. You can then use the app to record, take pictures and replay them back from the album section.

You need to remember that once you connect to the cam via wifi, you won't be able to connect to other wifi and go to the internet. You need to disconnect or use mobile data. You can download the pictures and videos to your phone. Once downloaded you can do whatever you want with them.



SJCAM C200 4K24FPS Action Camera Ultra HD Underwater Camera 154 Degree Wide Angle 131FT Waterproof Camera White

I tried to download the files to my computer but it seems you can't. My computer didn't recognize the cam or the MicroSD card inside it. I thought I'm supposed to be able to use it as a webcam. Apparently, not. Of course, I can just take out the card and use an adapter. Kind of a hassle.

I haven't looked up if I need to download any kind of software for my computer. As I've said, the quality of the pictures and videos are pretty good. It's only you can't record while moving or it'll be all shaky. You can definitely use it as a Vlog or take holiday videos. As long as you're the one moving.



GoPro HERO10 Black - Waterproof Action Camera with Front LCD and Touch Rear Screens, 5.3K60 Ultra HD Video, 23MP Photos, 1080p Live Streaming, Webcam, Stabilization

What I like about the C100+ is how small and portable it is. Definitely a good size for clipping on your backpack or shirt. Which I did when recording my ride on my JAVA Veloce road bike. Again, the stabilization isn't good enough. It even shakes when I'm wearing it and walking around my house.

I need a really good action camera with good stabilization for taking videos while I'm cycling and decided to look around again. I was divided in choosing the GoPro, Insta360, and DJI Action 2. Everyone has their beef about them so I end up making a 'safe' decision by buying the GoPro Hero 10.

Buying a GoPro is a safe choice for me because I've been wanting to get one since the first iteration of the product. Decades later, I'm finally owning one although it's freaking expensive. Well, to me getting one is a good investment for my youtube channel. Especially now I started cycling.
