After using Insta360 X6 for the past two weeks in Maldives (read it as in poor visibility and light :-) I can say with confidence that problem of capturing 360 videos underwater has been solved :-). Heck I would add to it that the problem of taking an action camera underwater has been solved. Throw out your GoPros and DJIs, get X6 and call it a day :-). It is that good. For now I will let footage speak for itself.

Both videos filmed in I-log. Turtle video has their LUT applied to it and is near the surface. The manta video has been exported in I-log and conformed in Davinci HDR pipeline using their I-log conversion. No color correction afterwards. The depth of camera was about 12m. !! Both clips delivered for HDR so unless you have HDR monitor on your PC or laptop use your newer phone to watch and judge. !!

Is so that good???? I own X4 (and use in the past X3) in the Cretan blue waters.

I was looking also to the forthcoming DJI - not sure is those issues Insta fix, will be also adressed by DJI.

It might worth to wait a little bit (?).

Not really (waiting)... Osmo360II has major flaw for underwater use and that is the lens. I saw samples and anything closer to camera is blurry. Until they or someone produces different lens and their software will be able to stitch it... Insta learned from their cooperation with Nauticam and did it right.
