DIY 360° video of your motorcycle rides

Best camera for getting 360° video of your motorcycle rides

360° video of your motorcycle rides – – This is a short demonstration video of using my Insta360 One x video camera on my 2017 Big Dog k9 clone. Because the camera films everything in 360°, you really don’t have to worry about aiming it at any specific point or in any direction.

When using the manufacturers app for editing the video you can decide what angles and what scenes or special effects are applied to the video. Once the video is edited, you can export it as a regular ‘flat’ video. With a normal video camera you could never get all these different directional shots. Actually, in order to do that, you would have to, let’s say shoot facing forward, then stop and remount the camera so it’s facing backward, then stop again, and change the camera to point out to the right side, etc.. With this camera, because everything is captured, you can decide what shots you want to include in the final video and also make some incredible special effects.

Also, one of the big features of this camera is the fact that it has electronic stabilization built-in. Keep in mind, here the camera is mounted through my handlebars on a selfie stick, and like almost any motorcycle there’s quite a bit of vibration. But when you’re viewing the video you can hardly see any vibration at all!

Plus, and it’s a tremendous plus, by doing different types of mounts, like this forward mount that I did for this video, you can create a motorcycle video ride that looks like it’s being filmed by somebody in the back of a pickup truck that’s riding in front of your bike.

Also if you closely watch the video you see that I can produce a video that looks like the camera is floating over the bike as I’m riding.

Lastly I’d like to say, you can also take 360° photographs. When you publish these photographs on YouTube and many other sites that accept them, the viewers can use their cursor or on their smart-phones, just their finger, and by moving sideways, up or down or diagonally, change the view in the still photograph.
