The Best Action Camera of 2020: Insta360 One-R 1-Inch Edition
65Insta360's One-R was already the most innovative action camera on the market, with a modular design, incredible motion smoothing, and time-saving editing features. But they haven't stopped there. Working with lens masters Leica, they've released a new 1-inch Mod, capable of shooting at an incredible 5.3K resolution. That's the highest resolution in any action camera to date. The footage is simply unbelievable.
Featuring an f3.2 aperture, 14.4mm equivalent focal length, the 1-inch Mod gets its name from the new 1-inch image sensor housed within. Not only does this produce stunning 5.7K resolution video, but it also makes night footage and low-light photos a lot cleaner.
Since we already reviewed the Insta360 One R Twin Edition earlier in the year, we'll be focusing purely on the new 1-Inch Mod in this review. In this video, you'll find plenty of sample footage (we shot the entire video on the Insta360 One R), along with comparison shots of the older 4K lens.
