Insta360 has introduced the Insta360 Flow 2 Pro, a new smartphone stabilizer designed to elevate mobile videography. This gimbal boasts advanced AI-powered features and seamless integration with both Android and iOS devices, particularly iPhones.
One standout feature is the integration of Apple’s DockKit, which allows for native subject tracking within the iPhone’s built-in Camera app and over 200 third-party iOS apps, including Blackmagic. This deep integration provides a smooth and intuitive user experience for iPhone users.
The Flow 2 Pro utilizes Deep Track 4.0, an AI-powered tracking technology that can follow fast-moving subjects even at up to 15x zoom with Active Zoom Tracking. This ensures that your subject remains in focus and well-framed, even in dynamic shooting environments.
To further assist with composition, the Pro Framing Grid helps users frame their shots using the principles of the golden ratio, a technique often employed in photography and filmmaking to create visually pleasing and balanced compositions.
Adding to its versatility, the Flow 2 Pro supports real-time multi-person tracking, making it ideal for capturing group activities and events.
Beyond its core tracking capabilities, the Insta360 Flow 2 Pro offers a range of features designed to enhance the mobile filmmaking experience:
- 360° Infinite Pan Tracking: This feature allows for continuous panning, ensuring that you can capture smooth, uninterrupted footage even when rotating a full 360 degrees.
- Built-in Selfie Mirror and Teleprompter Mode: These features cater to vloggers and content creators, making it easier to film selfie videos and deliver presentations directly from their smartphones.
- Support for Dolby Vision and Apple ProRes: For professional-level video capture, the Flow 2 Pro supports both Dolby Vision HDR recording and Apple ProRes codecs on compatible iPhones, providing high dynamic range and greater flexibility in post-production.
- Remote Control: The stabilizer can be controlled remotely using an Apple Watch or a second smartphone, providing greater flexibility and creative control during filming.
The Insta360 Flow 2 Pro features a refined design with a stronger built-in selfie stick and tripod compared to its predecessor. The handle is now longer and features an ergonomic grip for comfortable handling.
Weighing 357g, the Flow 2 Pro houses a 1,100 mAh battery that provides up to 10 hours of run time and can be fully charged in two hours. It also functions as a power bank, allowing users to charge their smartphones or other devices while on the go.
The Insta360 Flow 2 Pro is available in Stone Gray and Summit White and can be purchased through Insta360’s official website. The Standard Bundle is priced at $159.99, while the Creator Bundle, which includes additional accessories, costs $189.99. A Vlog Bundle is also available for $194.
