Today Insta360 announced Insta360Flow, its first image stabilizer (mechanical gimbal) for smartphones. Compatible with large and heavy devices, the Insta360 Flow features a quick turn on system, target tracking technology, a foldable and portable design, advanced controls, a built-in extension cable system, and a battery life of up to 12 hours as a differential. This model will directly compete with the DJI OSMO Mobile models that will then be introduced to the market.

A number of automatic modes help ease the process of finishing images for those new to editing. A button-and-crown control system assists with various gimbal control processes, while an AI-assisted app aims to make it easy to deliver videos and photos with professional effects. An accessory that adds LED lighting is also available. You can still customize the body part of the gimbal if you purchase it directly from the Insta360 website.

3-axis mechanical stabilization system

The gimbal is equipped with a 3-axis mechanical stabilization system, the same concept used in the vast majority of stabilization systems of this size, including drone cameras.

Insta360 ensures that Flow supports devices weighing up to 300 grams, which is important for the weight of some larger smartphone models such as the iPhone 14 Pro Max and Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Deep Track 3.0 technology keeps targets in the center of the frame.

The target tracking system, where you define something for the camera to follow, is more advanced with better intelligence not to miss a specific target. The system manages to follow even with sudden wheel changes and high speeds, as well as holding the target when the scenario alternates with possibilities that could confuse the system. Zoom Tracking lets you create zoom-in or zoom-out effects, while the slow motion system slows down the video without losing focus on what you want.

This feature even works with other apps like video calling, forcing you to stay in the center of the screen even when you’re moving.

Recording modes facilitate more perfect takes

Through the application, it will be possible to select recording modes that generate automatic effects. There are 4 models in total: Auto, Follow, Pan Follow and FPV.

A number of other features are also available through the app, such as TimeShift (timelapse), Dolly Zoom, and widescreen recording modes.

As it should be, it is also possible to create 360º image effects with the panoramic photo functions.

SmartWheel system provides precise control

The design of the gimbal with a control system is called SmartWheel (smart wheel), where the buttons with the help of the crown facilitate the process of gimbal command functions.

A set of buttons provides a number of options for controlling and switching between available functions, such as quickly changing recording modes, positioning the smartphone between landscape and portrait modes, and starting and ending recording. A special button returns the recording to the beginning to see if the take went according to plan.

Manual command control functions are also available.

Insta360 app guarantees more features

The app allows you to manage and update the gimbal, and offers an AI photo and video editing tool. By including profiles ready to make video editing easier, it helps make the process easier by providing higher quality videos even for people with no editing experience.

Insta360 Flow price

Insta360 Flow Stabilizer launched starting at $159 internationally. A kit with a bag and other accessories was also available for $209, and another kit with a tripod was available for $192.98.
