Insta360 Titan: Professional 360 Camera Available for Hire in London, UK

The Insta360 Titan is a sophisticated 360 camera offering high-resolution video and photography, suitable for both enthusiasts and professionals. This camera is readily available for rent in London, UK, with the option to include an operator. We provide full support for post-production stitching or can guide you through managing it yourself. As a top-tier VR camera, the Insta360 Titan is perfect for those aiming to create high-quality content for VR headsets, virtual productions, and immersive dome projections. Please visit our website Catch Reality dedicated to immersive production for more info. Below, we detail its capabilities and potential benefits for your projects.

Resolution and Shooting Modes

Equipped with 8 lenses, the Titan records onto 9 SD cards. Its stereoscopic mode delivers 3D video at resolutions up to 10K, ideal for VR applications that require a realistic, engaging visual experience. For projects involving virtual productions or immersive dome projectors, the 11K monoscopic mode offers pristine clarity and detail, even on expansive or curved displays, ensuring impactful visuals for installations or live events.

In practical terms, the camera operates at 30fps in stereoscopic mode and at 60fps in 8k monoscopic, with 11k resolution available for 30fps monoscopic shooting. Optimal settings for VR headsets like the Meta Quest 3 or Apple Vision Pro include 8k stereoscopic at 30fps or 8k monoscopic at 60fps. For advanced post-production grading, filming in 8k monoscopic with 10-bit color is possible.

Enhanced Low-Light Capability and Stabilization

The Titan’s eight Micro Four Thirds sensors outperform most 360 cameras in low-light scenarios, ensuring clear, detailed footage without the typical graininess found in dim conditions. FlowState stabilization further enhances video quality by maintaining steady shots, crucial for dynamic shooting from moving vehicles or when mounted on moving objects.

Audio and Monitoring Features

To match the visual quality, the Titan interfaces with the Zoom H3-VR Ambisonic Sound Recorder via USB, capturing detailed spatial audio that aligns with the immersive visual field. This audio setup can be mounted directly on the camera, ensuring cohesive operation.

Remote monitoring is simplified with the Titan’s internal Wi-Fi, allowing real-time feedback up to 10 meters away. For larger venues, the external Farsight monitoring system extends this capability up to a mile unobstructed, or about 100 meters in typical settings.

Data Management and DIT

The complex data produced by the Titan’s multiple lenses is recorded across nine SD cards. Our London rental kit includes a nine-way USB hub, facilitating efficient data transfer. The camera can be connected to a computer via ethernet for transfer or the cards can be removed and brought together using the USB hub. Using software like the Insta360 stitcher or Mistika VR, footage from the eight cameras is combined and finely stitched, though this requires a robust computing setup, ideally with a high-end NVIDIA 4000 series graphics card.

Flexible Rental Options

To accommodate users unfamiliar with this sophisticated equipment, we offer the option to rent the camera with a skilled operator. This addition can be invaluable, allowing you to fully utilize the Titan’s features while focusing on the creative aspects of your production.

Conclusion

The Insta360 Titan 360 Camera is one of the best for producing high-resolution, high-quality VR content, and its performance in low-light conditions is commendable. Weighing 5.5kg, it may not be suitable for every project, particularly where space is limited or in tightly confined interiors. However, for suitable projects, it delivers some of the finest imagery available from any 360 camera. For more information or to arrange a rental, please get in touch with us.
