The upgrades

Compared to its predecessor, the 360 II now supports 8K/60fps 360-degree video. Though the differences will not be noticeable to most, the 50fps to 60fps can provide smoother motion, allowing more flexibility for creators that require this footage.

Previously, the Osmo 360 had a 13.5 stop dynamic range. Now, with a 14.5 stop dynamic range, the 360 II allows the camera to retain more detail in both bright highlights and darker areas. This can be especially useful in bright, sunny areas or high-contrast environments.

Beyond its improvements in dynamic range, the 360 II also levels up its AI SuperNight feature.

The AI SuperNight 2.0 improves noise reduction in dark or dim environments. While this doesn’t remove it 100-percent, footage can be clearer.

Combined with the 14.5 range, the 360 II is a better companion in low-light conditions.

Slow-motion capture has also been upgraded, with the 360 II supporting up to 4K/240fps compared to 4K/120fps on its predecessor.

A big deal for those that aim to capture bigger movements, or action-packed footage.

The standard combo comes with the 2150 mAh battery, a productive pouch, cleaning cloth, USB-C charging cable, and the silicone lens cap.
