How much better in terms of image quality is the $15,000 Insta360 Titan vs Insta360 Pro 2 vs Insta360 ONE X? If Oculus Go and Oculus Quest max out in 5.7K, why do we film at 8K or even morseo, 11K? And what is the REAL low light performance of the Insta360 Titan in ISO1600?!

Watch this 360 video with your Oculus Go/Quest on YouTube VR and find out:

The key of this video is to compare the Insta360 Titan to the most popular prosumer class VR camera Insta360 Pro 2 and the most popular consumer class 360 camera Insta360 ONE X. This video is captured in the highest resolution, 11K, 10-BIT 8K, 8K on the Pro 2 and 5.7K on the ONE X. And I render the release video in 5.7K monoscopic — which is the highest resolution for Oculus Go or Oculus Quest.

The result should answer a question no matter what 360 camera you own — is high-end professional VR cameras have better image quality than prosumer or consumer 360 cameras if the delivery is on YouTube or Facebook. The common question I got from my viewers is that “if I can only see up to 5.7K, why do I need to capture in 8K or even 11K with a camera that as expensive as a car — or a small house in some countries”?

Let’s find out.
