Go, Johnny, Go, Go...

 

If you said, "Johnny B. Goode, by Chuck Berry, 1958," you get 12 bonus points.  If you said, "Hmmm... there are 3 'Go's' in there - is that a subliminal message?", you get an additional 20 bonus points.

Insta360, the company that makes the cameras I use most often for motorcycle/scooter videos, has been teasing the release of a new camera today.  They unveiled it this morning: the Go 3S.  It isn't really an all-new model, but a significant upgrade of their Go 3 camera...


 The Go 3S looks pretty much the same, except the lens on the little detachable camera is a bit bigger; it has 4k resolution, up from 2.7k.  Insta is pretty good with making what people ask for.  When the Go 3 came out last summer, a lot of people commented that "I'll wait until they offer 4k"... ask, and you shall receive.

No, I won't be upgrading.  Although, you can buy just the small camera with the new model and use it with your current "pod."

I'm considering some additional camera gear, but not this new Go 3S.  The DJI stuff is looking pretty interesting.
