As well as hunting out all the best cycling deals for the Amazon Big Deals Days sales, I’m also a professional cycling photographer, and have had the privilege to work at the most prestigious cycle races and shoot some of the biggest names in our sport.
From Paris-Roubaix to the World Championships, photography has been a huge part of my career, and when photography deals appear, I love to share them.
I also love filming cycling content, and the best action cameras for cycling are superbly versatile and make getting the best content an absolute breeze. I’ve been fortunate enough to get my hands on the all-new Insta360 X5, and can safely say from having used various GoPro Hero cameras, that the X5 ticks all the boxes—loaded with attractive features, I’d confidently say it’s one of the best bike and helmet cameras on the market.
The real highlight of the Insta360 X5, and one shared with it’s X4 sibling is the invisible selfie stick, which for cycling is brilliant. It means you can create stunning third-person views with no selfie stick in view in the final footage, and gives an drone like effect to your captures.
If you’re new to filming and editing and anxious you won’t have the skills to justify what this action camera delivers, then the X5 does all the work for you using AI-assisted reframing, and means perfect shots, every time.
The Invisible Selfie Stick is sold separately, and is currently priced at $24.99 on Amazon. There is also various bundles that includes the selfie stick, including the Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle, discounted to $599.99 from $659.99.
The Insta360 X5 will capture stunning footage with 8K30fps 360° Video
