BMW Motorrad limited edition changes the way you ride
Insta360 Japan has announced its new flagship model, the “Insta360 X5 BMW Motorrad Edition.” This special model will appeal to BMW Motorrad fans, boasting the X5’s impressive performance plus unique features designed exclusively for motorcycle riders. The rear cover and included accessories feature the BMW Motorrad emblem, enhancing the sense of ownership. But its appeal extends beyond its appearance. It features a BMW-themed UI and status dashboard, as well as a function that overlays real-time riding speed and distance on 360-degree footage. This allows you to capture immersive footage that incorporates data, rather than simply touring videos. While action cameras have long been beloved by riders, this model takes it a step further, fully recreating the experience of riding a BMW on film.
Newly developed mini remote control allows intuitive operation
The newly released Mini Remote Control was developed with the utmost in ease of use while riding a motorcycle. Riders can keep their eyes on the road and operate the camera without taking their hands off the handlebars. By attaching it to the handlebars with the dedicated mount, recording can be started and stopped with a single touch. What’s more, the “InstaFrame mode” allows you to freely switch between a fixed forward view, selfie view, and 360° view while riding. This allows you to instantly switch between a fixed forward view, selfie view, and 360° view while riding, for example, on winding roads, to a snapshot of yourself and your bike when stopping at a cafe, greatly reducing the hassle of editing later. It allows you to capture every moment as it occurs to you. That’s the greatest value of this remote control.
8K shooting and waterproof performance make it a reliable companion on any road
The X5 BMW Motorrad Edition supports 360-degree shooting at up to 8K, and its invisible selfie stick effect makes it easy to capture dynamic footage like a drone. FlowState image stabilization ensures smooth, shake-free footage, even around high-speed corners and rough roads. PureVideo mode also clearly captures low-light environments like night scenes and tunnels, ensuring uncompromising video quality even during urban touring and night runs. The X5 itself is IPX8 waterproof and can be mounted directly without an external case. You can continue shooting without worrying about sudden downpours or muddy roads. Simply power it on, attach it to your bike, and get riding. No extra preparation is required for filming.
