Aobelieve Tripod Mountain For Insta360 Nano


There's a novel tertiary political party tripod mountain for Insta360 Nano that could live fifty-fifty improve than Insta360's ain Nano Mount tripod adapter.
The Aobelieve Security Mount ($13.99) is a tripod mountain designed specifically for the Insta360 Nano.  Instead of a clamp similar the Nano Mount, it secures the Nano betwixt 2 plastic pieces that are molded to fit the Nano's contours.
I saw the Aobelieve a few weeks agone on Amazon but it was rapidly sold out earlier I could fifty-fifty purchase it, as well as it was non sold anywhere else.  Fortunately, it came dorsum inwards stock as well as I snapped it upwardly immediately.


The Aobelieve is made of lightweight plastic, amongst a silvery destination to tally that of the Nano.  The bottom has a metallic criterion 1/4-20 tripod insert.

To attach it, you lot house the move past times role over the Nano's caput as well as then you lot slide the bottom sleeve over the Nano's body.  The move past times role clips onto the bottom sleeve securely.  I produce hateful securely, equally you'll encounter below.  

Besides asset the Nano securely, i of the advantages of the Security Mount is that it is completely invisible to the Nano.  Here is how its nadir looks, inwards comparing to that of the reviewed here).

BTW, at $13.99, it likewise costs much less than the Nano Mount ($30), which is prone to having its cost inflated past times resellers whenever the render dwindles (sometimes the cost climbs to an unconscionable $70).

On the other hand, the Security Mount does possess got a duo of disadvantages.  First, compared to the Nano Mount, it's non equally slow to attach the Security Mount. It could live tricky if you're wearing gloves, for example.

More significantly, it is real hard to take the Nano from the Security Mount.  Once clipped together, it takes a herculean essay to unclip the 2 parts.  They actually should but rename this the Pitbull Mount.  I tin sack guarantee it volition concord the Nano no less securely than the effin Jaws of Life.  

The other disadvantage is that it is real lightweight.  Whereas the corporation aluminum Nano Mount has substantial weight as well as tin sack live used equally a tabletop represent the Nano, the Security Mount is real calorie-free as well as the see of gravity would live high virtually the Insta360 lens, as well as it is vulnerable to existence tipped over past times accident.

To mitigate these disadvantages, I filed off a lilliputian flake of the clip to larn far slightly easier to push clit apart.  As for the weight issue, I attached glued some Pb weights from my son's pinewood derby machine kit, which were apartment plenty that they did non larn far whatever harder to insert the Nano.

RECOMMENDATION
So, which would I recommend for a tripod mountain for the Nano?  If you lot possess got the push clit to utilization the Aobelieve, that's what I would recommend because of its invisible profile as well as yes, its safety equally well.  But if you lot move a lot amongst gloves, or you lot possess got carpal tunnel syndrome or something, I would stick amongst the Nano Mount.

The Aobelieve is available here.  There are variants hither that include other accessories, at a higher price.  The Nano Mount is available here.

How To Plough Your Insta360 Air Or Nano Invisible Inwards Your 360 Video (Also Industrial Plant For 360 Photos)

Here's a agency to brand your Insta360 Air seem invisible inward 360 videos.  It plant to a lesser extent on the Insta360 Nano every bit well.

INTRODUCTION
You may already know that turning a 360 photographic television camera invisible for photos is easy.  You but accept to piece of job a monopod or selfie stick that doesn't accept a ballhead, then the selfie stick volition live right inward betwixt the 360 camera's lenses.  If a 360 camera's vertical horizon correction is non perfect, the horizon may goal upwards topsy turvy, which is relatively slow to right for 360 photos using apps such every bit edit360 for iOS or Theta Converter for Android.  My friend Ben Claremont (Life inward 360) has a video virtually this technique.

For 360 videos, this same play a trick on is harder to do.  Most 360 cameras can't right for the horizon speedily plenty to proceed the video grade (two exceptions are the Garmin Virb 360 as well as the Xiaomi Mi Sphere).  It's non then slow to right a constantly undulating horizon inward a 360 video -- at that topographic point are software for it such every bit Skybox Mettle but they are expensive.

The number amongst the Garmin Virb360 is that it's non inexpensive at $799.  Xiaomi Mi Sphere is affordable plenty at roughly $300, but entirely yields total resolution amongst really high-end phones (Samsung S7 or equivalent).

Meanwhile, the Insta360 Air as well as Insta360 Nano both accept stabilization as well as inward fact were the outset consumer 360 cameras to accept it.  With the Air as well as Nano's stabilization, it becomes easier to enshroud the selfie stick / monopod.  See this sample video:


HOW TO TURN YOUR INSTA360 CAMERA INVISIBLE
1.  You volition postulate iii things:
     a.  your smartphone.
     b.  An Insta360 Air or Nano.
          - Insta360 Air Type C; or
          - Insta360 Air Micro USB; or
          - Insta360 Nano
     c.  a Benro MK10 selfie stick tripod.

2.  On the Insta360 app, move out to settings, as well as watermark. Choose "None".

3.  On the Benro MK10, withdraw the ballhead.

4.  The Benro MK10 every bit good comes amongst a unique smartphone tripod adapter that is the slimmest that I've found.  You'll postulate to withdraw the mirror on the tripod adapter because it makes the adapter thicker as well as to a greater extent than visible.  I used a blast every bit a wedge as well as it popped off.

5.  For best results, withdraw your smartphone's armor (if any).

6.  Attach the Insta360 to your smartphone straight (for best results, don't piece of job an adapter), as well as attach the smartphone to the tripod adapter.  HERE'S THE KEY: You postulate to seat the tripod adapter AS CLOSE to the photographic television camera every bit possible.  You may every bit good experiment amongst facing the covert outward (as inward the photo) or inward (toward the frame of the adapter), using the alive preview to run across which makes the selfie stick as well as tripod adapter less visible.

7.  For best results, extend the Benro MK10 to its total length (or extend it every bit far every bit possible from the handle).



That's all at that topographic point is to it!  Of course, every holler upwards is different, then you lot should piece of job the alive preview to tweak your phone, adapter, as well as camera's seat for best results.
