Pardon my ignorance, but is there any reason why a GoPro (Max) or Insta360 is not sufficient?

- coffeeblack 4y agoMostly the physical picture stabilization and the better form factor, where the bulky part of the cam is the handle to hold it.
- donkeyd 4y agoOk, that makes sense. Most other options will be bulkier indeed.
- varispeed 4y agoIsn't Insta360 Chinese too? GoPro is/was manufactured in China as well.
- AdrianB1 4y ago"Manufactured in China" (a.k.a. "everything") and "designed, built and controlled by a Chinese Party affiliate" seem to be very different. There is some risk in "manufactured in China" too, but orders of magnitude lower.
- chillacy 4y agoFrom what I heard early GoPro cameras were designed in China as well, they were off the shelf devices rebranded. Only later did GoPro start doing in house camera design.
