The Insta360 Link is likely the Best Webcam I’ve ever used. Though I have never used another gimbal-based camera, it is truly a quality webcam with some pretty slick features. Over the course of the past week or so, I’ve been using the Insta360 Link to record videos, and have video calls through Skype and Zoom. I also wanted to test it as a second camera angle for use during my live stream which I’ll get into as well.
Upon unboxing the Link, I plugged it in using the included (maybe 3-foot long) USB-C to USB-C cable and it quickly installed the drivers and I was up and running. Unlike other cameras that I’ve used that had a shorter cable, this one seemed like the perfect length to not only use with a laptop but have enough length when using with a desktop setup located on the floor. Obviously if you needed to put the camera at a longer distance, you could pick up a cable from one of the popular manufacturers here on Amazon.
First off, as I mentioned, there are a number of slick features that combine the flexibility of the gimbal-based hardware with the power of the Insta360 software. Besides the things that you would expect in a webcam like auto exposure, auto-white balance, etc, the Link offers a really novel usage of A.I. motion tracking with gesture control to enable or modify certain features.
When enabled in the app, hold up your hand and the LED light on the webcam flashes from its normal Green to Blue to indicate that motion tracking is turned on. You can also do this by simply single tapping on the front of the camera base and then tap again to turn it off. I gotta say, this is a nice implementation to toggle the gesture control feature on and off.
There are three modes that you can modify in the app including Normal (default), Fast and Slow. During my usage, I pretty much stuck with either Normal or Slow as I think fast could make people on the other side of your video call a little nauseous. If you think you will be moving around at a normal speed, then Normal is perfect. However, if you only plan on making small movements, use the slow setting. The camera did a great job to track and follow me, pretty much without any lag.
There are two other gestures that you can use including holding your left hand up in the shape of an L to enable zoom. While holding your hand in that position, either raise or lower the “L” to zoom in or out, respectively. It works pretty well but it worked a little better when I was located 3-4 feet away from the camera vs when I had my laptop on my lap. There is also a whiteboard mode that you can enable by making the “V” gesture with your hand. I tried it and it turned on the mode but since I don’t have a whiteboard, couldn’t really test this feature.
There are a few other modes that you can enable in the app including a slight downward angle which is good if you are trying to capture an image of your keyboard or something right in front of the monitor. There is also a true “overhead” view that would be incredibly handy if you had the proper setup to utilize this mode. I definitely have to play with this one more. I believe that Insta360 offers a specific extendable tripod for the camera that can be screwed into the quarter-20 thread on the bottom.
Overall, the color and brightness is good and sharp, especially in a properly lit scene. If you are using a ring light or something like the Elgato Key Light, Godox ES45 or the Boling P1 Vlogger, this camera will shine and make you look fantastic. If you are using the camera in a darker environment, you may have to tweak the brightness to your liking. I had to bump it up by 6 or 7 notches in the app to get it where I was happy. Again, in a bright setting, the HDR looked great but it was a bit too dark for my taste when the lights were turned off. I think this is more of a function of HDR vs the way the camera handles it.
As I mentioned, I’m also a live streamer, so I wanted to see if it would work with my current setup. I personally use a software called VMix and it did struggle a bit with the video, making it look a little jumpy. I THINK this is more of a problem with VMix since the other 2 or 3 webcam’s I’ve tried also faced the same issue. When I opened up OBS, and added the Link as a camera source, the video was smooth as normal. I’d love to see Insta360 contact VMix to see if some optimization could be done.
Final Thoughts: I REALLY like this webcam and think it would make a great addition for anyone that is constantly on conference calls, especially if you tend to move around a bit. Comparing to the video in my Dell XPS 15 laptop and it truly not a fair fight. Exposure, color and the ability to enable motion tracking are all really well done.

The Insta360 Link PTZ 4K Webcam is absolutely phenomenal. I use it for my Skype calls during my Portuguese lessons, and I constantly get compliments on the video quality. The pan/tilt, auto-tracking, zoom, and whiteboard mode are crazy good—making it feel like a high-end studio setup. The built-in mic is also worlds better than a standard laptop mic, which is a huge plus. If you’re looking to step up your Zoom or video call game, this webcam is 100% worth the price.

Don’t get me wrong, I love my Logi BRIO 4k. However, the Insta360 Link is a revelation. The software is powerful and simple—I had it up and running in moments. I messed with all the settings, trying out 4k, 1080p, light and other picture settings (full disclosure: I’m an IT guy and A/V more-than-enthusiast). The magic of the Insta360 Link comes from its PQ, for sure, but really delights when you start using the tracking features. Just turn it on, and you’re on your way! The first time I held up my hand to it, it immediately recognized that signal to turn on tracking. I can walk all around my room, get up from my desk (or sit down), sit back in my chair or lean in—and the Insta360 keeps my head in the right spot at all times! I can set the PTZ speed to normal or fast speed (I chose fast). It moves smoothly, giving a very professional video presence. It also has a deskview and whiteboard features, but I have not used those yet.
I use this for both Teams/Zoom on Windows (work) and FaceTime on Mac (personal). Both work equally extremely well.
My only (truly, minor) nitpick was the initial firmware update. I had to download it, put the device into a drive-like mode, and copy the firmware .bin file to the drive. For me, it was no big deal, but for others that may feel intimidating. The Insta360 was working fine without the update, but as I always do I want the latest bug fixes and improvements. I am hoping that future updates will be more simple.
In all, I am likely to buy another one for our living room, where we run a Mac Mini to do FaceTime on our big screen…because I don’t want to give up mine in my office! Anyone want to buy a very loved BRIO?

The media could not be loaded.
Cette caméra ou plutôt cette webcam (appréciez d’ailleurs la confusion que je viens de faire tant cette webcam est de qualité incroyable) est tout simplement bluffante.
Aucune et je pèse mes mots de ses concurrentes ne lui arrive à la cheville… c’est vous dire à quoi nous avons affaire.
Qualité d’image, tracking, application, précision, reglages, esthétique, gain de place mais vraiment tout y est, vraiment tout…
C’est vrai qu’elle semble un peu chère de prime abord, mais franchement pour être le gars totalement honnête, qui regarde ce qu’il a reçu en faisant abstraction de son portefeuille… elle vaut carrément son prix (et je serai même tenté de vous affirmer qu’elle vaudrait probablement un peu plus).
Ici nous avons et de loin, la webcam réinventée.
Moi qui ait mon bureau contre le mur, mon problème était de ne pas pouvoir mettre une caméra de qualité devant moi. J’utilisais par conséquent la webcam de mon imac, qui dépanne sans être de qualité pro selon mes exigences bien sûr.
Et puis arrive cette insta 360 qui décroche tous les points bonus quant à mes exigences professionnelles. Si vous lui mettez la lumière dont toutes les caméras ont d’ailleurs besoin, vous serez surpris comme moi par la précision de l’image, autant en photo qu’en vidéo. Car oui, elle fait aussi de superbes photos.
Je vais dans quelques temps m’en racheter une deuxième, car celle-ci va rester en permanence sur mon écran et l’autre me servira pour le vlog ou des videos pros de toutes sortes en run and gun.
Alors pour résumer, dégainez le chéquier et foncez car elle est tout simplement bluffante.

10000円程度の4K webカメラを使用していましたが、価格相応のクオリティの高いwebカメラです。もう少し広角になるようなレンズキット等が出ることを期待します。

Ich muss zugeben, ich war skeptisch, ob ich wirklich eine Kamera brauche, die mehr kann als mein alter Schulfreund, der Webcam-Klassiker von Logitech. Aber Junge, oh Junge, die Insta360 Link hat mich vom Hocker gehauen!
Erster Eindruck:
Klein, aber oho! Die Kamera kommt in einem schlanken Design und ist überraschend leicht, lässt sich einfach montieren und sieht aus wie ein Mini-Drohnen-Teil auf meinem Monitor. Ein echt cooles Gadget, das nicht nur gut aussieht, sondern auch technisch eine Menge draufhat.
Bildqualität:
Die Link kickt mit 4K-Auflösung bei flüssigen 30 fps, und das Bild ist so scharf, dass ich beim Zocken fast vergessen habe, dass ich nicht in einem High-End-Kinofilm mitspiele. Auch im Dämmerlicht meiner Gaming-Höhle bleibt alles kristallklar, fast so, als hätte die Kamera ein eingebautes Nachtlicht.
Features:
Hier fängt der Spaß erst richtig an! Die Kamera hat einen AI-Tracking-Modus, der mich besser im Blick behält als meine Mutter auf dem Schulhof. Egal, ob ich beim Streamen herumzapple oder bei einem Meeting wild gestikuliere – die Insta360 Link hält mein Gesicht immer in der Mitte, ohne dass es nervig wirkt. Zusätzlich gibt es coole Modi wie Whiteboard und DeskView, was besonders nützlich ist, wenn ich mal etwas auf meinem Schreibtisch zeigen will, ohne dass die Zuschauer jedes Staubkorn sehen.
Audio:
Die eingebauten Mikrofone sind auch nicht von schlechten Eltern. Sie filtern Nebengeräusche raus, sodass meine Zuschauer oder Kollegen nur mich hören und nicht den Straßenlärm.
Fazit:
Die Insta360 Link ist wie der nerdige Klassenstreber: unauffällig, aber wenn es drauf ankommt, zeigt sie, was sie kann. Für Streamer, die Wert auf Bildqualität und Stabilität legen, ist diese Webcam ein absolutes Muss. Klar, der Preis ist nicht ohne, aber hey, Qualität hat nun mal ihren Preis. Und dieser kleine Technikzauberer ist jeden Cent wert!
Wenn du also dein Streaming-Setup auf die nächste Ebene bringen oder bei Zoom-Calls glänzen möchtest, schnapp dir die Insta360 Link. Deine Follower und Kollegen werden es dir danken!
