Seamless 360 Filming Underwater with the New Insta360 X3 Invisible Dive Bundle

First-of-its-kind setup delivers epic third-person views and unobstructed 360 capture underwater

Insta360 today announced the release of the Insta360 X3 Invisible Dive Bundle, set to redefine how people film their underwater adventures. For the first time, diving and action sports creators can unlock all of X3's creative possibilities for underwater use, including the Invisible Selfie Stick effect, 360 filming and reframing, and more.

Key to X3's transformation is the revolutionary Invisible Dive Case accessory. With a new, innovative design, the case disappears completely for unobstructed, crystal clear 360 footage and seamless underwater stitching, with IPX8 waterproofing down to 164ft (50m).

“What makes this dive case so unique is that it actually hides the selfie stick underwater, making it completely invisible. I can now shoot third-person views of myself in some of the most stunning places on earth,” remarked Rachel Moore, professional underwater photographer.

Insta360 X3 Invisible Dive Bundle, which includes the Invisible Dive Case, is available via the Insta360 Official Store worldwide and Amazon U.S.

Underwater Adventures, Reimagined

Insta360 X3, the world's leading 360 action camera, has become a true favorite among action sports creators due to its creative possibilities. However, underwater capture has long been an industry-wide challenge for all 360 cameras, because a dive case is needed to ensure seamless stitching due to light refraction underwater. Design limitations meant previous cases were visible in the bottom area of the shot known as the "nadir", thus limiting the use of the footage.

The X3 Invisible Dive Case has solved this problem, making seamless 360 underwater capture a reality. With an optimized design for better light transmission, there is no obstruction in the nadir and the selfie stick is automatically removed from the footage, just like on land.

Shooting 5.7K 360 videos and 72MP photos with dual 48MP 1/2" sensors, X3 achieves best-in-class image quality, even underwater. The magic of X3 though is that it allows creators to shoot a 360-degree video, then choose where the camera is pointing during the edit, a process known as reframing. Just hit record and the camera films every possible angle, ready for creators to select the best options later in the Insta360 app. In the sea or ocean, surrounded by breathtaking scenery and wildlife that can appear from any angle at any moment, X3 captures it all.

With the camera mounted on a selfie stick, X3 can even achieve impossible-looking third-person shots, where it almost looks like the camera is floating in the water in front of you. Creators can film themselves, their diving buddies, and their surroundings, with unparalleled freedom and ease.

The camera's renowned FlowState Stabilization and 360° Horizon Lock keep footage stable through rough conditions or shaky camera moves. The Insta360 app and Studio also feature AquaVision 2.0, an AI-powered tool that auto-corrects underwater coloring for a more natural-looking image.
