Transcript (Video above)

Back to you, the Insta360 original extended selfie stick: www.WGAN.INFO/13 $70. I'm going to mention the other one too, you're holding up the Insta360 second-generation extended selfie stick: www.WGAN.INFO/14 That one is also $70.

Forgive me, but I don't think I mentioned. Did I mention that this was www.WGAN.INFO/17 $12?

I'm not sure I did. But anyway, back to you, the two different Insta360s selfie sticks. Again, you're using a Matterport Pro 2 3D Camera, you've told us why you're using a 360 camera earlier. Now why do you need one or the other of these Insta360 extended selfie sticks?

[01:19:44]
Kevin Dole: Also just to clarify the parts, when you buy the Insta cameras, this is the normal selfie stick that comes with it and it extends to about three feet and collapses down to about 11 inches or so. That's the normal selfie stick. This is the Insta360 extended selfie stick which collapsed is about 18 to 20 inches.

It has, I think nine sections that come out and don't think I can fully extend it to show you, but you can see it almost. But it extends to about nine,10 feet, something like that. It's all carbon-fiber. The joints are just pressure fit, you just pull them out.

[01:20:41]
Kevin Dole: This is the second-generation, I'll talk about in a minute. The first-generation I still prefer for many situations because it's lighter.

[01:20:50]
Dan Smigrod: - This is where you're talking about doing a hybrid tour with 3DVista, you have a Matterport. Now, you have 360 photo spheres. Now you have an aerial 360 because of this.

[01:21:01]
Kevin Dole: Exactly, I can hold this over my head and I've got that camera at least 15 feet in the air.

[01:21:06]
Dan Smigrod: Okay, so what's different about the second-generation?

[01:21:11]
Kevin Dole: One thing to know about this one is, the joints come out to a certain point and they just pressure fit at that point and won't go any further. The locking is just pressure. For this stick to be stable, you almost have to extend it all the way. It's either two feet long or if it's 10 feet long.

[01:21:34]
Dan Smigrod: The second-generation?

[01:21:35]
Kevin Dole: The second-generation, you can extend it to any degree you want. It's much heavier grade carbon-fiber, it's more rigid. It doesn't bend as much, when you get the camera way out at the end.

[01:21:50]
Dan Smigrod: Does it lock at each joint?

[01:21:55]
Kevin Dole: Yes, it does. There is a twist.

[01:21:58]
Dan Smigrod: You twist it to lock it?

[01:21:59]
Kevin Dole: Correct.
