Thank you so much for all your efforts trully appreciate you! I choose AP2 over dji 5 because of practicality. I'm a beginner and don't do color grading. AP2 is the most perfect camera for me. I want an easy friendly action cam 📷 to be used for my travels 🤗
Thanks for the new video again ! :) Now the AP2 image seems to me to be a bit overcolored sometimes ( 4:05 ), and from 14:41 onwards the video motion seems to be not smooth and jumps a bit every few frames. Super sharp image of AP2, but I still like the sharpness of the face a bit more on OA5. The face also looks a bit noisy on AP2. They could do something about that and it would be nice to have an option for these then, to be able to adjust them in 3 easy steps (For both Color and Face sharpness). Insta360's communication is very passive for me. They could write me a letter saying that there is a delay in the arrival of AP2 and to be patient, because if I didn't hear this from you last time, I wouldn't know the reason until today. Looking forward to your next video :) Have a nice day ! :)
I also own both cameras. I love both, if I had to choose I'd go for the Ace Pro 2. Although not 10 bit, cconsistently better video quality, day as well as low light...
I think it's better than before. Also, I think the focus distance might have been improved to be closer focusing than before. It's probably the TH-cam processing, but when I look at my Ace Pro 2 videos on my laptop, the image quality is clearer and sharper than it does on TH-cam.
Example. Pause your video at 07:55 and explain me why you can not see any details of your button in your jacket with ace pro. But your button is clearly visible with action 5.
Thx for ur remark and for your comment. I never looked at buttons on anyone's jacket hahah. No need for explanations btw As I said many times Each has strengths and weaknesses You get what you feel like that will suit u better. Btw jacket color on ap2 is closer to reality
Thank you for a very interesting video. I findthe AP2 image much more detailed but too red, the colours look more accurate on the OA5. Overall I prefer the AP2.
why insta doesn´t seem like 4k?? looks like it´s not properly focused and the colors are not realistic as dji? It becomes much more noticeable when you focus on the face. this can be corrected changing the configuration on the camera or in a firmware update? thanks!!
These cams are basically used in auto mode that why I made my videos in auto. Soon I will drop a video about my fav settings For day and night ;) You gave me this idea I will work on it . Thanks
At the 5:00 minute mark and at 7:45 while you were walking past the buildings, the walls appear on the Action Pro 2 to have a reddish hue to them. Although the AP2 showed more detail the color appears to be off. Which camera was more accurate with regard to the actual wall colors?
It was sunrise the ambiant light was towards red. Though non has the true colors here. It's the white balance for both that was off a little bit to the cold side on one camera and s bit to warm side on the others
Estoy en España y quería comprar la ace pro 2 pero me dicen que puede tardar un mes o más? Sabes porqué y si podría adquirirla de alguna manera sin tener que esperar tanto? Necesito hacer un viaje y quería tenerla en 15 dias
I am more inclined to buy the action 5 because I feel that for vlogs it's way clearer and has a more focused picture on the person in front of the camera than the ace pro 2. I understand that the ace pro 2 in many way processes better but most of the time I feel that the sharpness looks almost fake. And in the action 5 looks more natural. What to you think? Thank you so much for your videos! They are very informative.
Great test. I'm going to have to test out the new firmware myself. One of my viewers on my recent video pointed out that Voice Enhancement was now available in Pure Video mode, which I pointed out on my latest video wasn't available. I also noticed that setting the ISO max doesn't seem to stick when you power the camera off and back on even thought the setting displays the same on the screen. You can test this by going into a dark room, setting the ISO range down until it is underexposed and then turn the camera off and back on. You will see the exposure is way too high for the max ISO you have set and then when you toggle the setting, it corrects. This is a pain because I want to set the max ISO to something like 800 and use Pure Video whenever it is underexposed to take full advantage of Pure Video instead of having so much noise in my shots that I cannot see. That would be huge!
Oh I see will try. Thx for the comment and for your awesome video. I watched it in two times.. I didn't have time to write some comments but tomorrow no doubts .
@@photorabz no, but some folks commenting on my video did and they seem legitimate. One of them said that after it was fogged it left a permanent issue on what sounded like their sensor from what they described. It was someone filming in Malaysia in high humidity. In the past I have had my other cameras fog up but not any action cams going from an air condition space to a hot humid environment, but it was not permanent. I would expect that on the outside part of the lens it would be impossible to completely prevent fogging in certain scenarios, just like it's impossible to prevent fogging completely on diving and snorkeling masks and goggles, but if it is in the interior part of the lens on a camera that should be essentially airtight, this could be an issue.
That's what I mentionned in the live on Friday. When we close the lens guard in a humid area we risk to keep some water vapor inside. When the camera will heat up that might make fog. But I can't see why that would affect the sensor as for the sensor is INSIDE and not exposed at all
The audio on the Ace Pro 2 with the DJI Mic 2 via Bluetooth still sounds a bit muffled compared to the camera microphone. Is it possible to improve it by changing the gain?
I have a question if I am going to save my videos on my ACEPRO into HDD do I need to save both of this ( VID and LRV ) files or just VID files is fine?
@@photorabz other channel said and tested that it upgraded the supernight mode, but there is no mention in the firmware specs. Maybe a further test low light old - new and with Ace Pro 2 ( latest firmware) could be interesting
Night Mode was enhanced in the previous firmware I talked about it in my videos. This one is basically here to add new functions such as dji mic mini can be connected and so on
The Ap2 is not available yet in India. Try to go the webstore of insta360 as you usually do search for ap2 if it worked use my creator code at the end INRI29S
Will be nice to have the option of Non HDR with action 5 pro. I see the white balance is much better with action 5 in your video. I've also found out the. RAW photos from the action 5 is very distorted compared to my old osmo action 1 raw photo. I wish they can fix that. The edges are too distorted also.They got it right with the first one.
New Ace Pro 2 firmware is better. Unfortunately, Ace Pro 2 PureVideo doesn't have Horizon Lock (45 degrees) as in Ace Pro 1. I hope Insta360 will bring this feature back in the next firmware.
I hope so. I don't like that horizon 45 lock btw I like seeing tilty things when walking or in the car I try to adjust as much as possible but I like to see how the road is and how I move my hand with the camera
It never was on amazon. Buy it via my links First you get direct contact with the brand in case you have issues Second I get a small commission Third you get free gift from them via my link
Sinceramente…yo lo que veo es una saturación de la imagen superior en la ap2, algo que es mas irreal, cuando tu miras las nubes en la vida real no las ves con esas formas con tanto contraste, tu cara también se ve como mas anaranjada…no se pero yo veo mejor calidad de video la dji.
It's the white balance on both it's a little bit off to one side or another. It was sunrise so ambiant tones were red already. Both should work on a better auto white balance reading
So far the Action 5 is a huge downgrade from the Action 4 for daylight video. I have the Action 5 and Ace Pro and Ace Pro 2. Both of my Ace Pro cameras have better image quality than my Action 5. Action 5 has soft to some could say blurry video. I much prefer sharp detailed video. DJI has chosen to sacrifice image quality for battery life in the Action 5.
The Ace Pro 2 looks better. Every time you do a side-by-side with the Action 5, the Action 5 makes your skin look plasticky smooth. It must be the horrible HDR you can't turn off.
CE sont des dates que Les magasins mettent. Mais la camera Ne VA pas se vendre chez Les revendeurs avant un bout de temps. Faut passer par Mon lien sur leur site.
Looks like OA5 is 1 big disappointment. The image quality is poor,soft and lacks of details in brigter parts of the image..what about the control over the distortion. There isn't such at all. With the newest firmware its even worse and why dji is so shaky baky at nigt?.Ace P2 present humongous amount of magenta all over the image. Those new AI chips make the quality bad and unnatural and they don't do the job very well. Looks like that they apply some postprocessing in camera which i don't like and it's whey overcooked. U can't achieve better dinamic range whit some chip. I would like to have 1 inch sensor 5 6 k Res out of DJI and its achievable with aperture like 4 or higher and then those chips will be probably productive because there will be available information to squeeze and modify something similar to DJI OP3. And i am waiting for OP4 with the newest 1" sensor or 2 of them and 20mm and 50mm lens like DJI Mavik Air 3s. Greetings from Bulgaria.
Thanks a lot for this new video. To me its very difficult to judge how much better in real life the new firmware for the ace pro 2 is showing. For that you would have to compare side by side old firmware vs new firmware. The ace pro 2 looks good, but again how much has visibly been improved its impossible to tell right now.

Thank you for a very interesting video. I findthe AP2 image much more detailed but too red, the colours look more accurate on the OA5. Overall I prefer the AP2.
Both colors are a bit off. One to the warm tones the other to cold tones

this can be corrected changing the configuration on the camera or in a firmware update?
thanks!!
Focus distance is shorter on dji for sure. But do you want to vlog at 30cm away ?both colors are a bit off. Auto white balance is not good on both
@@photorabz which configuration is your fav on the ap2?? at the color and the white balance
These cams are basically used in auto mode that why I made my videos in auto.
Soon I will drop a video about my fav settings
For day and night ;)
You gave me this idea I will work on it . Thanks
@@photorabz Cool! Keep it up, mate
Thx
Dji always the best , most especially the battery and the price
Price wise if we check bundles.. insta 360 is cheaper
Which side did you ordered because I couldn’t find it
Which one?
At the 5:00 minute mark and at 7:45 while you were walking past the buildings, the walls appear on the Action Pro 2 to have a reddish hue to them. Although the AP2 showed more detail the color appears to be off. Which camera was more accurate with regard to the actual wall colors?
It was sunrise the ambiant light was towards red. Though non has the true colors here. It's the white balance for both that was off a little bit to the cold side on one camera and s bit to warm side on the others
I think that the Qoocam 3 Ultra 8K could compete with Dji and Insta 360, it would deserve tests and comparisons in my opinion
Coming soon
20:11 wraps it up, HDR/low light/detail/ clear winner
Awesome
你好呀,这个有时间水印吗。?
I think you can do it via the app
Any word on production on the ace pro 2 yet?
On affiliate thing all orders till Nov 7 were shipped and delivered
Hi, now there is a huge gap amid the two cameras. Let's hope about about a next new firmware from Dji. I look for news about it
Thx alot for the comment
Estoy en España y quería comprar la ace pro 2 pero me dicen que puede tardar un mes o más? Sabes porqué y si podría adquirirla de alguna manera sin tener que esperar tanto? Necesito hacer un viaje y quería tenerla en 15 dias
Hello there
In 15 days this is a bit hard but can be possible as for orders via my links until November 8th are already delivered

Did you encounter some fog issues?

It will always sound muffled. The Bluetooth protocole for dji mic do not allow third party cameras to use it to the fully (same with GoPro)
I have a question if I am going to save my videos on my ACEPRO into HDD do I need to save both of this ( VID and LRV ) files or just VID files is fine?
The lrv is Low Res Video. This will allow you to preview files quickly on ur camera and open them quickly in insta360 app or studio
hi, i got the ace pro 1, it have a focus distance that if close items get blurry, how far does ace2 go as for focus?
Acepro2 focus is closer than ace pro1
I made a video Abt it
Ask DJI for enhancing the 2x zoom to make it more usable. :))
This is digital zoom on davinci
is the close focusing issue resolved for the ace pro 2?
I think it's better
How do you live stream? I can't find that option anywhere, either in the app or the camera.
You can connect it to obs.
But why you want to stream with these cams. They are bad for that..sooo bad
Get a webcam for 20$ and stream with it better
@@photorabz Can't take a webcam outside.
I see. You want to live stream outdoors
I highly recommend obsbsot tail air an amazing camera for Livestreams ptz mode

I haven't tried. Good question let's test that
Nope I just checked

It is better (in my opinion)

Well dji is a good one also... They went with a camera that complements the action 4 and not replaces it
You may have a faulty OA5, what I do see though is a flat tone curve in the mid tones that needs sorting out.
Oh show me some footage from your unit so I can compare please
