WIRED Outstanding sharpness, white balance, and low-light performance. Connects via USB-C (USB-A adapter included). Fully motorized with nearly 360 degrees of swivel. Clear, intuitive companion app. Excellent autofocus. TIRED Expensive. 📷: Insta360

Head on a SwivelPlug in the Insta360 Link to your PC via the included USB-C to USB-C cable . The first thing you'll notice is its motorized head—the camera perks up and looks around before settling into a straight-ahead stare, not unlike the Pixar lamp afterThe Link is mounted on a gimbal that allows near-360-degree horizontal rotation, as well as a certain degree of vertical rotation. It’s not so heavy that it poses any problems on the top of a laptop screen either.

This kind of movement is handy if you’re frequently helming presentations in a room and need to move around, or even for showing off a dance routine. The Link can detect faces, so it’ll track yours and will automatically keep you in the center of the frame. It’ll zoom in and out, too, so that you’re not too far or filling up too much of the shot.

Using a series of hand gestures, you can give wordless commands to the Link. One gesture zooms the camera in and out. Another enters Whiteboard Mode, which forces the Link to recognize rectangular surfaces and train its focus there. In Whiteboard Mode, it'll frame the board and won't track you if you decide to move out of the way to give viewers a better view of the board.

Then there's Overhead Mode, which turns the focus to an object you're presenting on your desk by pointing the lens nearly straight down at the surface your monitor or laptop is resting on. If you're demonstrating something—playing the piano, drawing, showing off blueprints—it'll recognize that and automatically frame whatever you're doing for the prettiest shot. It works far better than I was expecting.

The camera is controllable via the Link Controller app , which has a simple, clean interface that explains everything. Forgot how gesture zooming works? Click the “?” next to the menu item and a short, silent explanatory video plays. Arrows and a zoom slider let you control the Link manually, and you can also move it with your mouse. All the controls are hidden away so they're really meant for anyone who doesn't feel overwhelmed by them.
