Video shutter runs from 1\/8000 down to the frame-rate limit. In sun the body just shortens the shutter until 8K30 looks like a slideshow. The Standard Bundle ships Standard Lens Guards and no card \u2014 not ND. Insta360\u2019s own page sells <em>Motion ND<\/em> in the app or Studio instead of glass. Official screw-on ND with Hall-sensor auto-detect is an X4 Air \/ X5 product. The 2026 kit that actually threads onto this barrel is the Freewell ND 4-Pack for Insta360 X4 (ND8 \/ ND16 \/ ND32 \/ ND64). It is not an X3 sticky rim, and it is not a CINSCAFD X4 Air filter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"quick-picks-box\">\n  <div class=\"qp-header\">\n    <h2>Our Top Picks at a Glance<\/h2>\n    <p class=\"qp-sub\">Updated September 2026 \u00b7 Insta360 X4 \u00b7 F1.9 \u00b7 ISO 100 \u00b7 8K30 \/ 5.7K60 \u00b7 no official physical ND \u00b7 screw-on replaces Lens Guards<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"qp-cards\">\n    <div class=\"qp-card qp-card--gold\">\n      <span class=\"qp-num\">01<\/span>\n      <span class=\"qp-badge\">\ud83c\udfc6 Best Overall<\/span>\n      <strong class=\"qp-name\">Freewell X4 ND 4-Pack<\/strong>\n      <div class=\"qp-rating\">\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605 <span class=\"qp-score\">4.7 \/ 5.0<\/span> <span class=\"qp-reviews\">\u00b7 2026 pick<\/span><\/div>\n      <p class=\"qp-why\">ND8 \/ 16 \/ 32 \/ 64.

Insta360\u2019s ND factor table: ND8 = 3 stops, ND16 = 4, ND32 = 5, ND64 = 6, ND128 = 7. The 180-degree target is shutter \u2248 2\u00d7 frame rate: ~1\/60 at 8K30, ~1\/120 at 5.7K60. ISO 100 is the floor \u2014 the camera cannot stop down F1.9. A pair of filters (one per lens). Do not stack over Lens Guards. Motion ND in Studio is a software blur; it does not write a slower shutter to the INSV.<\/p>\n\n<h2>How We Picked These Filters<\/h2>\n<ul>\n  <li><strong>What Insta360 published for this body:<\/strong> X4 hardware sheet: dual 1\/2-inch sensors, F1.9, 6.7 mm equivalent, minimum focus 0.6 m, safe stitch 0.8 m. Weight 203 g. 360 video: 8K 7680\u00d73840 at 30\/25\/24, 5.7K at up to 60 fps, 4K 360 at up to 100 fps. Single-lens 4K60. ISO 100\u20136400. Shutter: photo 1\/8000\u2013120 s; video 1\/8000 to the fps limit. I-Log 10-bit is on the shooting table. Waterproof 10 m without a Dive Case; Invisible Dive Case to 50 m. Standard Lens Guards in the box (align the mark, rotate clockwise to the mic). Premium Lens Guards sold separately. After install: enable Standard or Premium in Lens Guard Mode; Auto detects official guards; after removal set <em>No Lens Guards<\/em> or the stitch breaks. Lens Guards are not for underwater or rain. Store page: Standard Bundle is camera + Standard Lens Guards \u2014 no microSD, no ND. Product page: Motion ND in the app or Studio \u201cwithout using an ND filter.\u201d<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Why F1.9 still needs glass:<\/strong> Aperture does not move. ISO 100 is the floor. In sun the legal picture is a faster shutter, which kills 180-degree blur at 24\/30\/60. Insta360\u2019s ND guide is sunglasses for the sensor and shutter \u2248 2\u00d7 fps. ND16\/32 is the weekday pair; ND64 is beach, snow, and noon (the same guide\u2019s \u201cextremely bright\u201d step; ND128 is the next one \u2014 rare on X4 third-party kits). I-Log will show a cheap magenta\/green cast. Motion ND is a grade, not a shutter. 8K30 does not unlock a different thread.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>The thread and the SKU traps:<\/strong> X4 Lens Guards are a screw-on that replaced X3 sticky rings. Third-party ND for this camera uses that same seat \u2014 one pair, one density, replacing the guards. Freewell\u2019s live storefront now leads Luna Ultra \/ X6; the cart must print <em>Insta360 X4<\/em> and four ND (retailers still say Standard Day or All-Day \u2014 All-Day on Freewell\u2019s newer cameras means ND+ND\/PL; do not buy Luna Ultra All Day). K&#038;F\u2019s X4 4-pack is the AGC \/ 28-layer class listing that says X4, not Ace Pro 2 FSI114 or Pocket magnets. TELESIN\u2019s X4 3-pack is ND8\/16\/32; their One R \/ Ace \/ GO Ultra kits are other snaps. Official Insta360 ND: X5 summer note called those \u201cthe first ND filters designed for a 360 camera.\u201d X-series ND manuals list X4 Air and X5 only \u2014 Hall sensor, on-screen density confirm, CINSCAFD-class SKUs. Those rims will not center on 2024 X4 glass. Same skip: X3 filters, 43 mm photo ND, stacking, water.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2>Best ND Filters for Insta360 X4: Detailed Reviews<\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"top-recommendation\" id=\"best-overall\" data-badge=\"best-overall\">\n  <div class=\"top-badge badge-best-overall\">\ud83c\udfc6 Best Overall<\/div>\n  <h3>Freewell ND 4-Pack for Insta360 X4 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=Freewell+Insta360+X4+ND+Filter&#038;tag=e6890-20&#038;linkCode=osi\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"title-amazon-btn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">View on Amazon<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/search?Ntt=Freewell+Insta360+X4+ND+Filter&#038;BI=8941&#038;KBID=10361&#038;SID=12345&#038;DFF=d50\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"title-bh-btn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">View on B&#038;H<\/a><\/h3>\n  <div class=\"product-highlights\">\n    <div class=\"highlight-item\"><span class=\"highlight-label\">Best For:<\/span> Daylight 8K30 \/ 5.7K60 on the original X4<\/div>\n    <div class=\"highlight-item\"><span class=\"highlight-label\">Key Feature:<\/span> ND8 \u00b7 ND16 \u00b7 ND32 \u00b7 ND64 \u00b7 X4 screw-on rims<\/div>\n    <div class=\"highlight-item\"><span class=\"highlight-label\">Rating:<\/span> <span class=\"star-rating\">4.7 \/ 5.0 \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/span><\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <table class=\"spec-table\">\n    <tr><th>Kit<\/th><td>Four ND, case, cloth.

Freewell\u2019s four-stop recipe is the same daylight ladder their other Insta360 kits still ship. The useful part is the X4 thread, not a brand slide. These rims replace the official screw-on guards so the glass sits close to the bubbles \u2014 a fat stacked pair is how a black ring appears in Studio. Coatings are why this is Overall when you are grading I-Log: less magenta than a $20 three-pack. Freewell\u2019s homepage now pushes Luna Ultra and X6; read the title. Gloves make swaps slow. That is a field tax, not a reason to buy a magnet that will not seat on this barrel.<\/p>\n  <p><strong>Skip this if<\/strong> K&#038;F X4 is a few dollars cheaper this week \u2014 same ND8\u201364.

ISO 100 is the floor. Insta360\u2019s ND guide: shutter \u2248 2\u00d7 frame rate \u2014 about 1\/60 at 30 fps, 1\/120 at 60 fps. ND8 is 3 stops, ND16 is 4, ND32 is 5, ND64 is 6. Weekday sun is ND16 or ND32. Beach, snow, and noon are ND64 (the same guide\u2019s \u201cextremely bright\u201d step). Indoors or night, take them off. If the frame goes dark, drop a stop; do not crank ISO first.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Official Insta360 ND on the original X4<\/h3><p>No first-party physical set shipped for this body. The store bundle is camera + Standard Lens Guards. The product page points at Motion ND in the app or Studio. Official X-series ND manuals name X4 Air and X5 \u2014 Hall sensor, on-screen confirm, CINSCAFD-class filters. X5\u2019s own note called those the first 360 ND. Amazon \u201cX4 Air ND\u201d is the wrong camera.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Lens Guards under the ND<\/h3><p>No. X4 Standard and Premium guards occupy the same screw-on seat. Insta360: after you remove guards, set No Lens Guards or the stitch fails. Third-party ND is not Standard or Premium \u2014 leave the mode on No Lens Guards or Auto, then check the sphere in Studio. Do not stack. The filter is the sacrificial glass if the camera hits concrete.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Motion ND versus a physical filter<\/h3><p>Motion ND is a software blur Insta360 applies in the app or Studio. It does not change the shutter stored in the INSV, and it does not save clipped 8K highlights the way ND16\/32 does at ISO 100. Use it when you already shot without glass. Use a screw-on pair when you can set 1\/60 or 1\/120 before you press record. I-Log still wants neutral glass, not a cheap cast you fight in color.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>ND in water or rain<\/h3><p>X4 is rated 10 m without a Dive Case. Insta360: Lens Guards are not for underwater or rain; dry them if they fog. X-series ND manuals: filters are not fully sealed \u2014 no surfing, no rain. Same rule for third-party X4 ND. For 360 in water, use the official Invisible Dive Case (50 m) and take the filters off. ND does not fix refraction on two fisheyes.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\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\"><strong>Freewell X4 ND 4-Pack<\/strong> <span class=\"verdict-reason\">\u2013 ND8\u201364 on X4 threads.
