It’s been less than three months since Insta360 released its X5 360-degree action camera, but the company is already introducing new accessories and a major firmware update. It addresses the challenges of adjusting and balancing exposure on dual lens cameras when both are potentially capturing scenes with different lighting conditions. New ND filters replace the X5’s standard lenses to allow for slower shutter speeds in bright conditions. The X5’s battery life is getting a boost with Endurance Mode now available while shooting in 8K/30 fps mode to extend recording time to just under two hours. A new wireless remote for the X5 can be worn like a watch and includes live previews, GPS data, and a microphone.
