Auto is the official advice when you swap often. Third-party ND and CPL sit on the same screw-on seat \u2014 they replace this glass, they do not stack on it.

Official ND manuals list X4 Air and X5, with Hall-sensor detect. Motion ND in the app or Studio is the first-party blur path on this body. Physical stops are third-party rims on the guard thread.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Can ND or CPL stack on the Premium Lens Guards?<\/h3><p>No. One screw-on seat. The filter replaces the guard. Stacking adds a ring the stitch was not profiled for. After a third-party rim, set No Lens Guards.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Which Lens Guard Mode does a third-party filter use?<\/h3><p>No Lens Guards. Standard and Premium are official profiles. Auto detects official guards. A Freewell, K&#038;F, Telesin, or CPL rim is none of those.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Do the Premium Guards stay on underwater?<\/h3><p>Insta360\u2019s tutorial says no \u2014 remove the guards and turn the mode off before water, even inside the Invisible Dive Case. The 10 m rating is the bare camera.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Why can a CPL split the 360 sky?<\/h3><p>A polarizer has one sun angle. Two fisheyes that are not rotated the same stitch a dark half to a pale half. Match both rings, check the sphere, or use Single-Lens on glass.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Does Motion ND replace a filter?<\/h3><p>It is a post effect in the Insta360 app and Studio. The app note supports media up to 4K60, and the on-screen preview is an approximation. It does not add density at capture and it does not protect the glass.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Will X4 Air or X5 ND filters fit this camera?<\/h3><p>Those official ND rims are written for X4 Air and X5. This page is the April 2024 X4. Buy glass labeled for Insta360 X4, or buy CINSBBMF \/ CINSBBME.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Final Verdict<\/h2>\n<div class=\"conclusion-module verdict-box\">\n  <div class=\"verdict-picks\">\n    <div class=\"verdict-item\">\n      <span class=\"verdict-label\">\ud83c\udfc6 Best Overall:<\/span>\n      <div class=\"verdict-product\">\n        <strong>Insta360 X4 Premium Lens Guards<\/strong>\n        <span class=\"verdict-reason\">\u2013 The only official glass for the 2024 X4 \u2014 tempered, twist-on, and the pair Lens Guard Mode was written for.<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=Insta360+X4+Premium+Lens+Guards&#038;tag=e6890-20&#038;linkCode=osi\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"verdict-btn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Buy Now<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"verdict-item\">\n      <span class=\"verdict-label\">\ud83d\udc8e Best Value:<\/span>\n      <div class=\"verdict-product\">\n        <strong>X4 screw-on CPL pair<\/strong>\n        <span class=\"verdict-reason\">\u2013 The one third-party rim that does a job official glass cannot \u2014 cut water, snow, and dashboard glare.<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=CPL+Filter+Insta360+X4&#038;tag=e6890-20&#038;linkCode=osi\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"verdict-btn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Buy Now<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"verdict-item\">\n      <span class=\"verdict-label\">\ud83d\udcb0 Budget Pick:<\/span>\n      <div class=\"verdict-product\">\n        <strong>Insta360 X4 Standard Lens Guards<\/strong>\n        <span class=\"verdict-reason\">\u2013 The pair the Standard Bundle already ships \u2014 buy it again when the box set is scratched, not a fake.<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=Insta360+X4+Standard+Lens+Guards&#038;tag=e6890-20&#038;linkCode=osi\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"verdict-btn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Buy Now<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <p class=\"verdict-summary\">Buy the Premium Lens Guards if the X4 leaves the pouch \u2014 official tempered glass and a real Lens Guard Mode.
