Thanks mate, seems 35mm works best.

yeah long exposure mode very handy for waterfall too. it says 7s, 3s probably too short depending on how fast traffic moves

AI Sky

Pretty amazing what AI imaging and video can do nowadays..on my Insta360 it renders the skies for the videos.

didn't like AI on photo or video. AI still not able to process more complex images properly & often produced weird results.

is video quality better on insta360 or 13 ultra? didn't like xiaomi placement of side power button in the middle affecting gimbal grips.

I don't use AI for processing, but two recent AI capabilities i do use for quick stuff:

1. Extracting object etc from a photo
2. Removing background ppl

Those post-processing are super time saving vs the old school PS way..lol..i don't miss those days!

As for video.. insta360 x3 is best for 360 videos; especially scenery / landscape and sports. It can shoot angles and effects no other regular cam can do. Low light it is crap.

Regular video..i stick with 13U...but my gf's fruit phone movie mode beats the crap out of 13U video lor..even 8K can't save it..lol.

Did you use auto or night mode or manual?

 

[dreamcast18]

I love how much details the 13U can capture in low-light..note the texture of the table mat:

Another difficult shot with depth of field details:

Ultrawide testshot:

this was a near-complete darkness tunnel...amazing sensor:

best duck place in london:

auto

this one is night mode

Auto better. Night mode too much processing.

Your pics validated my tots of never having to switch to night mode.

but it suppose to focus on atas water
always have issue focus on area i want. i will select area to focus & once click shutter it will end up in another (not sure if caused by AI, i did disable AI camera option)

this was a near-complete darkness tunnel...amazing sensor:

yeah noise free too. so it's sad if they gonna replace with other sensor for 14 series

Yeah, the focusing thingie is weird at times..and post-processing if not turned off looks even weirder at times..but when it gets it right...details and output are amazing:

This one had to decide what to focus on...even more difficult to frame in low light:

Layered cake was another challenge to take and frame:

Some of the Leica film mode are pretty good:
