Thanks for the review! I love that the AP2 uses two chips for imaging processing efficiency, and its 8K recording quality is amazing! I plan to use it to record my surfing videos! Stay posted for some videos of me getting barreled and shredding in Hawaii!
I currently have a hero 11 black. I saved up money for the new GoPro & was super disappointed that they didn’t address the low light issue. To me that was priority #1! So, I kept my money & waited for this camera to be released! I will be buying one this week! Good review video!!!
I trust DJI Osmo Acyion 5 Pro. I have had GoPro for years and always there were some issues either withth battery, overheating, etc. I took my new Action5 Pro deeper than 20 meters during scuba diving.
Already bought Dji Osmo Action5 pro ;) . Seems i did the right thing. Using mainly for trail running. Also i got the bundle with the 1.5m stick , which is so great. I already posted a video with it. What i do not like at Dji Osmo is i cannot change to HEVC 264. You need lastest software to edit this codec in 10 bit.
I have zero knowledge about photography or stuff like that. But as a normal viewer of the final output video, I like the image quality of GoPro the most. It's more vibrant in a good lighting condition than the others.
Yes I'm torn between them but want to buy one of the three. Gopro has best image quality but I like low light performance of others... but how often will I use that capability. TBD
@@theleakingpot Ha! Maybe the next GoPro will be "so good" that they'll skip v 14. Kinda like how Winamp 5 was so good that they skipped a version. LOL
I'm actually so surprised by how excited people are about the "43gb on board storage" or whatever it is. Like how does that actually matter, why is that a selling point? Are that many people really forgetting to put their SD card into their camera? I feel like anyone with an action camera is gonna buy a 256 gb microSD for 20 bucks and call it a day. And every time you offload the footage onto your computer, you delete the videos and put the SD card back into the camera... Also, I would imagine the simple front screen saves battery life. I think when filming in a selfie mode, it's pretty obvious if you are in the shot, as all you have to do is make sure the camera is facing you. I don't think it's a big deal that there is no front screen
The built in storage is really just a perk since it doesn't seem it added to DJI's price... Action 5 Pro is $50USD cheaper than the new Insta360 Ace Pro 2. In my use case I love having built in storage it's a great fall back in case something happens... your SD card fills up, your SD card becomes corrupt, you lose your SD card while you're on a trip, etc... Lots of use cases for having back up storage! Not to mention that 43GB provides around 2 hours of filming which is quite a bit. The front display isn't a show stopper but in my use case I typically pull a camera out hit record and start filming. I like to know my shot is roughly framed correctly so the tiny front display is super useful. On the Ace Pro 2 it's an added step (albeit 1 second process) to fold out the screen, and then fold it up again when I'm done. Just my opinion and my specific use case though but I thought I'd share my experience.
@@ChaseTheSummit Totally good points! I think I'll use the flip up camera as a party trick haha. I love filming while on a ski lift, and flipping the screen will let everyone see themselves. I guess the way I use my action camera is I document a trip, then I go home and throw all the videos onto my external SSD, so I never really have an issue with filling up an SD card or it becoming corrupt somehow.
@@mxzpop LOL of course those 2 are selling points... I mean WTF ? for a vlogger having a front screen is 100% necessary. Imagine a vlogger walking into a street talking with the camera and then he sees something happening and point the camera where he wants? what hes gonna do? flip the screen 30 times in the same video ? lol and yes, internal storage is a good deal when you simple don't want to PAY for a SD card since this camera is already the most expensive of his category. Oh, and i've tested both... The audio on Acepro2 is BAD! they put some noise reduction that always f%cks up some street noises.
@@podcastcortes2451 you a clown if you think the benefit of on board storage is to save money on an SD card lmao. Also it's pretty easy to know where to aim the camera without a screen on an action camera when. you're vlogging. I also tested the audio on the ace pro 2 and it is great, not sure what you are talking about. I highly doubt youve tested both
I've been using GoPro since model 3, but I got stuck at model 9. So it's time for an upgrade for me. I have been doing a lot of research on the new DJI 5, and honestly, the future that I most like is that you're able to hook up. Up to 2 microphones at the same time. The futures on the Ace Pro 2 are amazing.But honestly, it can not beat the four hours battery that d j I five offers you, so base. I guess I have a winner.
The 4 hours of battery on the DJI is in it's standard bitrate mode. If you use "high bitrate" that's cut in half along with risks of overheating. Still a great camera though!
For me, GoPro is always the best choice for action: it offers better color science in daylight, an 8:7 sensor (I will never go back to a 4:3 sensor), an ultrawide lens with horizontal lock in all mode, 10-bit color, high bitrate, a variety of accessories, and more… My dream would be a square sensor for the next GoPro! 🤩
I already have the DJI action 4 but wanting to upgrade so was waiting for the ace pro 2 to come out to compare it to the action 5. Still can’t make up my mind. Any suggestions 😂? They both have great low light. I kind of like the double screen on the actions more than the flip up but I like the pause function on the ace pro 2. So hard to decide.
I’m considering two cameras: the DJI Action 5 Pro and the Insta ACE 360 Pro 2. I like that the DJI has a Dive mode and displays depth. Does the Insta have a Dive mode as well? Which one would be better for diving?
Hello, nice review. I was pumped for this camera since i use this primarily for scuba diving, more specifically night dives and UV night dives. Your colored light segment is concerning. I don't really care about 10bit since i don't have a 10bit monitor and I'm glad they added log. But the colored light blurring might be a no go. i wonder if turning off anti noise would clean up that light blurring, another review had a similar light (BUT not the same) and they did not have the blurring. So was it that exact color, which would screw me on UV coral reef filming.? Did you have any similar results with other colored lighting? Was there any noticeable uptick in thermals? two chips could go either way, splitting the work so both heat up less, or thermal stacking increasing over heating. at 4k60p the ace pro 1 over heats about 50 minutes into the dive, is there any data suggesting this time would increase with ace pro 2. thanks
Heat management is similar from Ace Pro 1 to 2. The strange blurring I saw was only present in VERY specific scenarios with strange colored light. It’s not an issue in 99% of situations.
For me, the Ace Pro 2’s colors and overall end image aesthetics look more natural. I prefer the 8-bit over 10-bit, as it helps with face tracking. That’s important for me as an IRL streamer. The 10-bit drains the battery in under an hour on my other cameras though ☹
I agree the thread mount would be useful, dont care for the internal storage, i worry it may affect heat and cold weather performance. Plus a company adding internal storage isn't going to choose the best fastest options. So better to just let us choose ur storage options But I get it
Not sure about heat. The DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro runs through an entire battery in 4K30P without overheating but it may add to the cost? Not totally sure.
@@ChaseTheSummit nice ya i love action 5 pro handling of heat, i hope ace pro 2 can handle 40°c summer heat in beach or dessert countries. I am scouring youtube for a review that tests head and cold durability of ace 2 vs action 5
@ChaseTheSummit just say RobHK review He discovered action 5 pro runs for 2hr41min at 25°c 4k30fps vs 1hr50min ace pro 2 I hope someone tries simulation 35°c and -10°c or something 😢
Question: I think the Go Pro stabilization has to go through an App on your phone. Does the Ace Pro 2 need to do that also or can you just pull out the SSD card and plug it into your computer editing software? Thank You
@@m.legato3698 GoPros stabilization is baked in and doesn’t need the app. None of these cameras do unless you’re in specific modes like insta360’s free frame mode.
I would pass on the Ace Pro 2. The Dji Action 5 Pro has a more balanced feature set and DJI has a history of improving their product over time. DJI log/10bit, DJI mics, DJI front screen, With firmware upgrade, great DJI Webcam experience, good DJI support are key factors. The one Ace Pro 2 mic looks interesting though.
A small detail I wanted to see change was being able to switch the position of the camera without having to take off the mount to match the magnetic mounts direction. I see in the Pro 2 that its able to flip on either side but is it supposed to? I wonder why it would have the camera icon on one direction but not the other? How did it feel mounting it the other way? Is it still secured?
I mention that in this video. You can switch the orientation of the camera on the new mount. Inst360 moved the magnet a smidge so that it doesn't "fight" you when you're trying to connect it backwards. It's pretty easy!
@@ChaseTheSummit Thanks! I did the see that in the video but wanted to double check because that was one of my nitpicks of the Ace Pro. There's a lot of times I wanted to swap my camera position on my motorcycle to get better angles but having to undo the mount sucks.
Great demo Cheers. Would you please tell me if Ace Pro 2 has a Liniar setting like GoPro. I notice you show footage in a setting James Megaview. Is this similar to Gopro liniar. Basicly just want to learn if Ace Pro 2 has any liniar setting and if it works as good as Gopro liniar. If so this thing looks perfect to me. Thanks.
Best review i saw so far for the ace pro 2 TH-cam algorithim doesnt like u though maybe add some extra hastags Because when i searched Ace pro 2 vs action 5 pro review ur video didnt come up at all in the top videos
Interesting review - I'm glad however that I went for the DJI Action 5 Pro, I was concerned the new Ace Pro 2 would blow it out of the water, but I don't think it does, although low light performance is better.
Do you have recordings on a bike/motorcycle of all 3? With my current GoPro 7 i have a lott of wind noise going on, especially anoying on elektric bikes where all you hear is wind buffeting. A solid but compact solution to that might get me on board with a new camera.
I did some cycling with the Ace Pro 2. The wind muff makes a big difference when wind is hitting the camera straight on. So if the camera is facing forwards into the wind. But when it's faced towards the rider you still get a bit of wind noise though its significantly better than without the wind muff.
I think for now I’ll stick with my Ace Pro 1, I was hoping that the new Pro 2 would offer 10 bit and maybe increase the sensor a little bit. But don’t see any major improvements to get the new version. Thanks for the info in you review 👍🏼
Let's mention a major difference in these cameras. If you buy one today the DJI and Ace Pro will probably still work a year from now, the GoPro will likely have a defect by then.
I do not trust all these videos published on the day of the premiere with cameras provided by manufacturer. Especially in relation to Insta, which had problems with corrupting youtubers.
Trust what you want. I'm fully transparent about my relationship with the brand within the first couple of minutes of this video. They sent me a camera early to test and review and provide feedback. They did not pay me. They did not see this video prior to its release. They did not have any control over my thoughts or opinions.
i hope in the next iteration they bring in 10 bit color and a 1 inch stacked sensor for faster read out and also inbuilt storage like the dji .....nice work 👍
@@ChaseTheSummit yeah for sure. The Ace Pro just seems to be the worst at it in my opinion. The low light is amazing though (except that smudging issue)
No, In fact they can cause more harm than good by trapping moisture inside and promoting corrosion. Fun fact: COROS used to ship plugs with their watches until they learned it was causing moisture damage!
Durability. I use GoPro on gravel riding. Very bumpy. I crashed a couple of times. I dropped the camera. But it is still perfect. I thought about these other options but I don't think they are as rugged as GoPro.
GoPro is super durable though I'm pretty impressed with the build quality of both the new DJI and this Ace Pro 2! As noted at the beginning of this video I dropped the Ace Pro 2 at a full sprint and it literally smashed into concrete and bounced into a busy road... Zero damage and continued to film.
Yes it can via bluetooth but it doesn't sound as good as it does when paired to the DJI Action 5 Pro due to the propriertary direct connection DJI can leverage being under the same brand. Insta360 connects as if it's any other bluetooth mic so it sounds a bit like a phone call rather than a high quality mic. You can connect the DJI Mic 2's receiver via USB for a cleaner connection but it gets a bit bulky.
@@ChaseTheSummitdo you happen to know if you can connect other external mics? E.g. I have hollyland lark m2 usb c version. Unclear if can directly attach or if door on camera comes off. Any thoughts from your experience? Thanks
I think the DJI Action 4 combined with the DJI Mic 2 is the best bang for the buck even over the DJI Action 5. I don't see anything that would make me switch from DJI or even adding the AP2 to my growing bag of cameras because it doesn't do anything different or better.
You are correct about it being what you use a specific camera for. When shooting daytime motocross videos the Action 4 has a better normal color profile that doesn't require any luts or color correction in post. Combined with the Mic 2 and the GPS remote I use the A4 and leave the A5 in the bag. Low light vlogger's seem to like the 5 better. If the Garmin Virb XE had evolved with better stab and image quality it would have been the bomb.
10-bit is really only useful for color grading and editing. You have more headroom to adjust things without it getting noisy or gradients appearing. But if you're not editing or grading 8-bit is 100% fine!
The Insta360 has lost the title of action cam for me, as a water sports channel on TH-cam, the camera fell off the mount while I was surfing. The system is not safe! In addition, I have tried to contact Insta360 in countless ways, but completely without response. So if you rely on Insta for support, you are lost. Loved the pictures in the videos. But unfortunately that's not enough. very sad had a loss of over 1000 dollars on the day of shooting...Thanks Insta for that.
Kinda like comparing apples to oranges. If you don't need an action camera that can withsand being dropped, going in water, thrown around in a backpack, strapped to a helmet or bike, etc... The Osmo Pocket 3 is a better option as it has a bigger sensor, auto focus and superior image quality. The same goes with any modern day smartphone... an iPhone blows all of these cameras out of the water in terms of image quality. With that said, an action camera is designed for... action. If you want to strap something to a helmet, or dive off of a cliff into the ocean, or go down a waterslide or something... That's why these cameras exist.
@@ChaseTheSummit why should a smartphone that has a much smaller space allocated for 1 camera be better then a dedicated action camera? in my opinion the last one should be much better, especially in low light! In my logic, having a larger space in the back of the "objective" or the lens, used to be a great advantage, to work that space in favour of better lens or stacked lenses, biger lenses, better sensors, and so on.. Finally, for a normal person (no vlogger, editor,...) the most important feature of any camera is the capability to record in good , but also in bad lighting situations. If i think of the moments that I would use a camera will only be with friends doing stuff in town (usually in the evening) or in the midle of nature fishing and chiling with friends in the forest (also kind of a low lighted situation). So , for me GoPro no matter what iteration whe are speaking of would be a no go. The heating would also be a problem in my area, 43 celsius last summer. By the way, not everybody needs 4k/60fps all the time. Most of the time for personal use, 2k(2.x k)/60fps should be quite enough. Why the companies dont introduce that option, like a balanced , less heat , less processing , better battery, more recordings on the same storage opton in the settings?1080 used to be enough in the past but nowadays 1080p does not suffice, considering the new big displays era on TV`s and monitors. So I think 2.x K should the balanced route to go.
Great, I love the review! You should do a battery comparison like the last time, because that was really interesting and the DJI wiped the others out in that one.
Thanks, I appreciate the comparison review without the hidden sponsored by Insta360 that they like to do and that some others are still doing even though they got spanked about this before. All of the cameras mostly do the same thing but I will say, I've never had a great time importing footage from the Insta app on PC and the footage always seems a little off. Can't quantify that, but it's a feeling thing after using 3 of their newer cameras.
Thanks! Glad you liked the video. I will say the new Studio app for mac works great! I've been using the beta for a couple of weeks to test the Ace Pro 2 with zero issues.
I came back to comment one more time because I’ve actually done a lot of lowlight testing with my action five Pro and before the recent firmware update where they fixed the bit rate and also adjusted super night, I was getting a lot of cartoon character type look in my footage with certain lighting. It’s now much better on the A5 Pro. My guess is that since these are similar sensors It’s possible that that’s exactly what’s happening with the ace pro two in certain spooky light and that they’ll fix it in firmware just as they did in the action five pro. I’m actually impressed with how well the action 5 and the Ace pro2 both do in low light. It’s amazing that an action camera can get these kind of Images at all. Happy Halloween!!! 🎃Love your honest and real review. All these are great cams!
The DJI is super fast to turn on however it's a bit of a party trick. If you let the camera sit for too long it will fall into a "deep sleep" where it takes a couple of seconds to turn back on. The 0.3 second startup only works if you're actively using the camera multiple times within a certain time. Still... super handy!
It's in the video in multiple locations. First during the hardware overview where I'm riding a bike with windscreen and later during the audio test with wind screen attached. It's very effective!
As mentioned in the video this is an 8-bit camera even in I-LOG mode. Though, you can still grade the footage (I used their LUT in this video) it can't be pushed super hard without seeing some gradients and noise in the shaddows.
For the low light stuff, you kind of did DJI dirty here, because they have actual night modes that are substantially better - and in my opinion likely measurably better than the Ace Pro 2. You also kept DJI and GoPro in 8 bit normal color when they both have 10 bit options even without log. This isn’t a fair or true comparison
@@ChaseTheSummit dang. For FPV, was hoping you could remove the battery for weight savings especially since the camera is heavier than the competition. May have to stick with GoPro =/
@@ChaseTheSummit It's not pure video stab in the ace pro, it's either low light stab during Pure Video or during other video mode. But that setting is not saved for quick capture. It's so stupid. It saves the color profile, it saves the EV setting, but never the low light stab! Are you sure that that setting is turned on or off if that was last used for quick capture?
I will never understand why so many people out there that use a so-called swear word in a half ass manner. Why not just say that it was "dope." That gets you point across just as well as saying that it was dope as fuck. Edit: To be clear, it is the self censoring that I don't get. If you don't want to swear, then why not just use non-swear words.
Without being stubborn and no regret, I don't mind having the 1st gen of this. The fact that I have to fiddle with the wind protection screen is kinda awkward. What if I don't have it with me and I'm going to water?
I don't think they have a spec. In my experience it seems like 15 inches or so which is fine for vlogging situations. The GoPro can get a little bit closer but not by much unless you use the macro lens. It's a significant improvement over the Ace Pro 1.
@@ChaseTheSummit oh that’s VERY interesting. That is going to simultaneously make a lot of people mad and happy. Like most things these days. lol. Thank you for the comparison. No doubt, these are both great cameras. I would argue that form factor and features wise, they are different enough to get both, which (sadly to my bank account) I probably eventually will. Hey, quick question, I have the GoPro Hero 12, is that the same sensor as the GoPro 13? I love my GoPro 12 (in good light). Thanks for all the info! Great content on your channel!
100% dji 5 for the win as video quality looks far better ace 2 looks to cartoonish. il go with dji and nicer screen bit smaller and its adji .OVER AND OUT
It really only happens in one specific use case under weirdly colored lights. I suspect Insta360 will fix that via firmware. In just about every other scenario the Ace Pro 2 is superior.
Better lol. I'd say the same if night a smidge better than DJI / GoPro but none of these are macro cameras unless you're using the GoPro with attached macro accessory.
Like I said, this only happens in a VERY unique situation under strangely colored lights. In just about every other scenario the AP2 and AP5 look very similar. In some cases the AP2 is superior in other cases the AP5 looks better. They both use the same sensor so that's not surprising. I suspect that Insta360 will fix the funky colored light situation in a firmware update in the near future.
Necessary? No. But it's a nice perk considering the DJI is $50 cheaper and includes it. Handy if you forget an SD card, have a corrupt SD card, lose your SD card while out filming, etc... to have a backup storage and enough of it to film for a couple of hours!
Thank Chase the Summit for this DETAILED video. I love your HONESTY when you say this video is NOT SPONSORED even though you receive the camera for free. I won't buy it because of 2 reasons. First, it's still only 8 bit color while GoPro 13 & DJI Action 5 support 10 bit. From my experience, after I edit the 8 bit color footage, the color becomes muddy, not vibrant as the original footage. Second, I'm sure that version 2 of this camera still requires the user to download its mobile app and register the camera before being allowed to use it. It's a huge privacy concern for me. GoPro does not require this.
Ok weird question. How is the zoom ok ? So if 2x at 8k and you get 4k the video is still saved at 8k no ? Isn't it the same that gp does with 1.2 ie zoom (or post process ) at 5.3 k? Of course less zoom but still, you don't want to upscale the 4k either to 5.3k or 8k ... Right ? Or am I silly ? And hey great video bruv. Thank you so much.
The zoom is great on the Ace Pro 2 because it's cropping into an 8K image instead of digitally sharpening a 4k crop. So you're getting true lossless 4K even at 2x zoom.
I had a call with them and they were super interested in what I had to say. It seems like they're working on it. The fact that they use the same sensor as DJI means it's definitely a software bug.
great review, but unfortunately another video full of DJI bots...the only thing that Insta360 didn't do well on the ace pro 2 is not buying bots😅people chose to be blind and ignore the huge advantage of the ap2 in low light come on
You sound like a bot. First of all there is no huge advantage. That sounds like misinformation to me. The difference in low light performance between the Ace Pro 2 and Action Cam 5 is objectively small. Second of all, he is not saying to buy the DJI over the Insta360. He very clearly said that they are all good cameras and each camera has their own pros and cons. Thirdly, how can you say "another great video, but unfortunately another video full of DJI bots..." That is a total contradiction.
Do you know every user in the world? lol. I'm sure someone out there was like "WOW! Just what I needed!" but I'm sure it's a small percentage. Still... it's a free feature so why not take it.
Apparently, you were not paying very close attention to the video. He said in the video exactly what you just stated. Of course no one wants to charge their phone with their camera. This feature is an Emergency Use feature. This is something that could help you in an emergency type situation. Just like the internal storage in the Action Cam 5. The amount of storage they give you is insignificant. You would only use the internal storage if you forgot your SD card.
It's remarkable how the Ace Pro 2 delivers such clear details in both highlights and shadows. The exposure settings are spot on, especially for an action cam.
Thanks for the review! I love that the AP2 uses two chips for imaging processing efficiency, and its 8K recording quality is amazing! I plan to use it to record my surfing videos! Stay posted for some videos of me getting barreled and shredding in Hawaii!

For me, GoPro is always the best choice for action: it offers better color science in daylight, an 8:7 sensor (I will never go back to a 4:3 sensor), an ultrawide lens with horizontal lock in all mode, 10-bit color, high bitrate, a variety of accessories, and more… My dream would be a square sensor for the next GoPro! 🤩
We appreciate your hard work and detailed reviews of tech and gear. Much appreciated, 🤙🏽
In-depth review!A Very great action camera comparsion🤩
I already have the DJI action 4 but wanting to upgrade so was waiting for the ace pro 2 to come out to compare it to the action 5. Still can’t make up my mind. Any suggestions 😂? They both have great low light. I kind of like the double screen on the actions more than the flip up but I like the pause function on the ace pro 2. So hard to decide.
This is a well done review. I pushed the like button!
I’m considering two cameras: the DJI Action 5 Pro and the Insta ACE 360 Pro 2. I like that the DJI has a Dive mode and displays depth. Does the Insta have a Dive mode as well? Which one would be better for diving?
The DJI is the only camera with a depth sensor. The Ace Pro has an enhanced underwater mode and can go to depths of 39 feet without a case.
@@ChaseTheSummit So, does Insta handle underwater use better than DJI?
@@manius_dive they’re pretty similar. Colors on the Ace Pro are supposed to be better but I haven’t done a whole bunch of testing in water.
@@ChaseTheSummit And here it's a difficult choice, a diving camera, DJI or Insta😱
Hello, nice review. I was pumped for this camera since i use this primarily for scuba diving, more specifically night dives and UV night dives. Your colored light segment is concerning. I don't really care about 10bit since i don't have a 10bit monitor and I'm glad they added log. But the colored light blurring might be a no go. i wonder if turning off anti noise would clean up that light blurring, another review had a similar light (BUT not the same) and they did not have the blurring. So was it that exact color, which would screw me on UV coral reef filming.? Did you have any similar results with other colored lighting? Was there any noticeable uptick in thermals? two chips could go either way, splitting the work so both heat up less, or thermal stacking increasing over heating. at 4k60p the ace pro 1 over heats about 50 minutes into the dive, is there any data suggesting this time would increase with ace pro 2. thanks
Heat management is similar from Ace Pro 1 to 2. The strange blurring I saw was only present in VERY specific scenarios with strange colored light. It’s not an issue in 99% of situations.
For me, the Ace Pro 2’s colors and overall end image aesthetics look more natural. I prefer the 8-bit over 10-bit, as it helps with face tracking. That’s important for me as an IRL streamer. The 10-bit drains the battery in under an hour on my other cameras though ☹
See 16:34, so weird......
Which one is have ( pause/resume recording) feature??? I will go for that. Thanks
I think Insta360 is the only one that does that.
I agree the thread mount would be useful, dont care for the internal storage, i worry it may affect heat and cold weather performance. Plus a company adding internal storage isn't going to choose the best fastest options. So better to just let us choose ur storage options
But I get it
Not sure about heat. The DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro runs through an entire battery in 4K30P without overheating but it may add to the cost? Not totally sure.
@@ChaseTheSummit nice ya i love action 5 pro handling of heat, i hope ace pro 2 can handle 40°c summer heat in beach or dessert countries. I am scouring youtube for a review that tests head and cold durability of ace 2 vs action 5
@ChaseTheSummit just say RobHK review
He discovered action 5 pro runs for 2hr41min at 25°c 4k30fps vs 1hr50min ace pro 2
I hope someone tries simulation 35°c and -10°c or something 😢
Question: I think the Go Pro stabilization has to go through an App on your phone. Does the Ace Pro 2 need to do that also or can you just pull out the SSD card and plug it into your computer editing software? Thank You
@@m.legato3698 GoPros stabilization is baked in and doesn’t need the app. None of these cameras do unless you’re in specific modes like insta360’s free frame mode.
@@ChaseTheSummit Thank You, Looking forward to see more of your videos!
Comparison video is what I like! Liked and subscribed.
I would pass on the Ace Pro 2. The Dji Action 5 Pro has a more balanced feature set and DJI has a history of improving their product over time. DJI log/10bit, DJI mics, DJI front screen, With firmware upgrade, great DJI Webcam experience, good DJI support are key factors. The one Ace Pro 2 mic looks interesting though.
A small detail I wanted to see change was being able to switch the position of the camera without having to take off the mount to match the magnetic mounts direction. I see in the Pro 2 that its able to flip on either side but is it supposed to? I wonder why it would have the camera icon on one direction but not the other? How did it feel mounting it the other way? Is it still secured?
I mention that in this video. You can switch the orientation of the camera on the new mount. Inst360 moved the magnet a smidge so that it doesn't "fight" you when you're trying to connect it backwards. It's pretty easy!
@@ChaseTheSummit Thanks! I did the see that in the video but wanted to double check because that was one of my nitpicks of the Ace Pro. There's a lot of times I wanted to swap my camera position on my motorcycle to get better angles but having to undo the mount sucks.
Great demo Cheers. Would you please tell me if Ace Pro 2 has a Liniar setting like GoPro. I notice you show footage in a setting James Megaview. Is this similar to Gopro liniar. Basicly just want to learn if Ace Pro 2 has any liniar setting and if it works as good as Gopro liniar. If so this thing looks perfect to me. Thanks.
It does but Megaview is pretty linear as well while also being wider
@@ChaseTheSummitAll I needed to know to pull the trigger - Cheers 👍
Best review i saw so far for the ace pro 2
TH-cam algorithim doesnt like u though maybe add some extra hastags
Because when i searched
Ace pro 2 vs action 5 pro review ur video didnt come up at all in the top videos
Maybe because ur video title doesn't say action 5 pro just say dji
Thanks, for some reason YT doesn't like me today ugh.
Interesting review - I'm glad however that I went for the DJI Action 5 Pro, I was concerned the new Ace Pro 2 would blow it out of the water, but I don't think it does, although low light performance is better.
They're all so good now. The OAP5 is an awesome camera and I love having the front display and OLED tech.
Do you have recordings on a bike/motorcycle of all 3?
With my current GoPro 7 i have a lott of wind noise going on, especially anoying on elektric bikes where all you hear is wind buffeting. A solid but compact solution to that might get me on board with a new camera.
I did some cycling with the Ace Pro 2. The wind muff makes a big difference when wind is hitting the camera straight on. So if the camera is facing forwards into the wind. But when it's faced towards the rider you still get a bit of wind noise though its significantly better than without the wind muff.
@@ChaseTheSummit
It will be faced forwards in Motocross/enduro with me.
How does it compare to the GoPro and the other camera's?
I think for now I’ll stick with my Ace Pro 1, I was hoping that the new Pro 2 would offer 10 bit and maybe increase the sensor a little bit. But don’t see any major improvements to get the new version. Thanks for the info in you review 👍🏼
For me it's the microphone. It's SO much better.
@@ChaseTheSummit Well, I got the microphone adapter and I use an external mic, so that’s not a very important upgrade for me, Thanks for your reply!!
As a IRL live streamer (meaning UVC/RTMP mode). What functions will work? Pure Video? Stabilization? Higher resolutions than 1080p30?
Thanks for your sharing. How ACE PRO 2 performance while diving
Haven't dived with it so I cannot comment!
You didnt used specific night mode in both. will be better?
I did. In every low light scene they were in their respective night modes.
Let's mention a major difference in these cameras. If you buy one today the DJI and Ace Pro will probably still work a year from now, the GoPro will likely have a defect by then.
The last time GoPro had defect issues was in the 9 series I think? The 10, 11, and 12 were all pretty reliable.
I do not trust all these videos published on the day of the premiere with cameras provided by manufacturer. Especially in relation to Insta, which had problems with corrupting youtubers.
Trust what you want. I'm fully transparent about my relationship with the brand within the first couple of minutes of this video. They sent me a camera early to test and review and provide feedback. They did not pay me. They did not see this video prior to its release. They did not have any control over my thoughts or opinions.
@@ChaseTheSummit If they were controlling your thoughts, would you even know? 😂🤣
Do you have to send the camera back?
Go watch the vid again, you OBVIOUSLY didn't watch the vid
If he didn’t send it back then that’s classed as payment is what I’m getting at for the thickos out here .
i hope in the next iteration they bring in 10 bit color and a 1 inch stacked sensor for faster read out and also inbuilt storage like the dji .....nice work 👍
Great review as always! It’s better than the original, but still looks a little out of focus close up.
They all do. The downside of fixed focus cameras!
@@ChaseTheSummit yeah for sure. The Ace Pro just seems to be the worst at it in my opinion. The low light is amazing though (except that smudging issue)
I have DJI Osmo Action 5. It’s great! My favorite action camera right now.
Total different question is there any advantages to using the dust cover plugs on the charging port on the Fenix watches?
No, In fact they can cause more harm than good by trapping moisture inside and promoting corrosion. Fun fact: COROS used to ship plugs with their watches until they learned it was causing moisture damage!
@@ChaseTheSummit well the I’m removing mine now from the 8. Thank you so much for that info!!!! Much appreciated!
Durability. I use GoPro on gravel riding. Very bumpy. I crashed a couple of times. I dropped the camera. But it is still perfect. I thought about these other options but I don't think they are as rugged as GoPro.
GoPro is super durable though I'm pretty impressed with the build quality of both the new DJI and this Ace Pro 2! As noted at the beginning of this video I dropped the Ace Pro 2 at a full sprint and it literally smashed into concrete and bounced into a busy road... Zero damage and continued to film.
I like dji OA 5 Pro. More cheaper and also already have a memory. But the Ace Pro 2. Just like you making a real vlog camera. For the flip screen.
Great review! Can the DJI Mic 2 be connected directly to the Insta360 Ace Pro 2?
Yes it can via bluetooth but it doesn't sound as good as it does when paired to the DJI Action 5 Pro due to the propriertary direct connection DJI can leverage being under the same brand. Insta360 connects as if it's any other bluetooth mic so it sounds a bit like a phone call rather than a high quality mic. You can connect the DJI Mic 2's receiver via USB for a cleaner connection but it gets a bit bulky.
@@ChaseTheSummit Thanks for the reply Chase!
@@ChaseTheSummitdo you happen to know if you can connect other external mics? E.g. I have hollyland lark m2 usb c version. Unclear if can directly attach or if door on camera comes off. Any thoughts from your experience? Thanks
@@CreativeStudiosFM you can directly attach usb mics including the Hollyland, DJI and Rode. The camera also accepts Bluetooth connections.
I think the DJI Action 4 combined with the DJI Mic 2 is the best bang for the buck even over the DJI Action 5. I don't see anything that would make me switch from DJI or even adding the AP2 to my growing bag of cameras because it doesn't do anything different or better.
You are alone, I take the DJI 5 over the DJI4 anyday, even if they would sell it for 1 dollar
You are correct about it being what you use a specific camera for. When shooting daytime motocross videos the Action 4 has a better normal color profile that doesn't require any luts or color correction in post. Combined with the Mic 2 and the GPS remote I use the A4 and leave the A5 in the bag. Low light vlogger's seem to like the 5 better. If the Garmin Virb XE had evolved with better stab and image quality it would have been the bomb.
For social sharing, 10-bit is not even supported. I see no issue with 8-bit.
10-bit is really only useful for color grading and editing. You have more headroom to adjust things without it getting noisy or gradients appearing. But if you're not editing or grading 8-bit is 100% fine!
will old acepro mounts fit on the new acepro2?
Yup, same mount.
The Insta360 has lost the title of action cam for me, as a water sports channel on TH-cam, the camera fell off the mount while I was surfing. The system is not safe! In addition, I have tried to contact Insta360 in countless ways, but completely without response. So if you rely on Insta for support, you are lost. Loved the pictures in the videos. But unfortunately that's not enough. very sad had a loss of over 1000 dollars on the day of shooting...Thanks Insta for that.
Insta360 suggests using their metal quick release mount for high intensity activities like watersports. Were you using the included plastic mount?
@@ChaseTheSummit Yes, I think that was the mistake, but I think for an actioncam this must be included in the accessories.
Please do a video comparing the ace Pro 2 to the DJI pocket 3. Thank you
Kinda like comparing apples to oranges. If you don't need an action camera that can withsand being dropped, going in water, thrown around in a backpack, strapped to a helmet or bike, etc... The Osmo Pocket 3 is a better option as it has a bigger sensor, auto focus and superior image quality. The same goes with any modern day smartphone... an iPhone blows all of these cameras out of the water in terms of image quality.
With that said, an action camera is designed for... action. If you want to strap something to a helmet, or dive off of a cliff into the ocean, or go down a waterslide or something... That's why these cameras exist.
@@ChaseTheSummit why should a smartphone that has a much smaller space allocated for 1 camera be better then a dedicated action camera? in my opinion the last one should be much better, especially in low light! In my logic, having a larger space in the back of the "objective" or the lens, used to be a great advantage, to work that space in favour of better lens or stacked lenses, biger lenses, better sensors, and so on..
Finally, for a normal person (no vlogger, editor,...) the most important feature of any camera is the capability to record in good , but also in bad lighting situations. If i think of the moments that I would use a camera will only be with friends doing stuff in town (usually in the evening) or in the midle of nature fishing and chiling with friends in the forest (also kind of a low lighted situation). So , for me GoPro no matter what iteration whe are speaking of would be a no go. The heating would also be a problem in my area, 43 celsius last summer.
By the way, not everybody needs 4k/60fps all the time. Most of the time for personal use, 2k(2.x k)/60fps should be quite enough. Why the companies dont introduce that option, like a balanced , less heat , less processing , better battery, more recordings on the same storage opton in the settings?1080 used to be enough in the past but nowadays 1080p does not suffice, considering the new big displays era on TV`s and monitors. So I think 2.x K should the balanced route to go.
Nice basic review. I am a orienteering runner. Can you include a clip in 4k 4:3 60fp running in the forest and a camera mounted on a head strap?
Is there anyway to connect the pro2 directly to a tv? The gopro has the media mod with a hdmi port, is there anything similar for the insta?
I don't think so. I don't think USB-C on this camera supports HDMI out.
Great, I love the review! You should do a battery comparison like the last time, because that was really interesting and the DJI wiped the others out in that one.
Thanks, I appreciate the comparison review without the hidden sponsored by Insta360 that they like to do and that some others are still doing even though they got spanked about this before. All of the cameras mostly do the same thing but I will say, I've never had a great time importing footage from the Insta app on PC and the footage always seems a little off. Can't quantify that, but it's a feeling thing after using 3 of their newer cameras.
Thanks! Glad you liked the video. I will say the new Studio app for mac works great! I've been using the beta for a couple of weeks to test the Ace Pro 2 with zero issues.
Can you compare low light between ace pro 1 vs ace pro 2?
There's clips of that in this video.
@@ChaseTheSummit thank you
I came back to comment one more time because I’ve actually done a lot of lowlight testing with my action five Pro and before the recent firmware update where they fixed the bit rate and also adjusted super night, I was getting a lot of cartoon character type look in my footage with certain lighting. It’s now much better on the A5 Pro. My guess is that since these are similar sensors It’s possible that that’s exactly what’s happening with the ace pro two in certain spooky light and that they’ll fix it in firmware just as they did in the action five pro. I’m actually impressed with how well the action 5 and the Ace pro2 both do in low light. It’s amazing that an action camera can get these kind of Images at all. Happy Halloween!!! 🎃Love your honest and real review. All these are great cams!
It seems DJI’s 0.3 sec delay for turning on the device is the only consideration i need to think about.😢
The DJI is super fast to turn on however it's a bit of a party trick. If you let the camera sit for too long it will fall into a "deep sleep" where it takes a couple of seconds to turn back on. The 0.3 second startup only works if you're actively using the camera multiple times within a certain time. Still... super handy!
25mins video and you forgot the performance of mic with foam attached against wind noise or am i missing that clip?
It's in the video in multiple locations. First during the hardware overview where I'm riding a bike with windscreen and later during the audio test with wind screen attached. It's very effective!
Good review thx u. I looking buy GoPro more now got to think about peo2 and DJI
Insta 360 Ace Pro ❤️👑
Insta 360 Ace Pro 2 ❤️👑
What camera would be your pick for star shots
Probably my phone lol.
does it have a 10bit color enabled with i-LOG video mode?
As mentioned in the video this is an 8-bit camera even in I-LOG mode. Though, you can still grade the footage (I used their LUT in this video) it can't be pushed super hard without seeing some gradients and noise in the shaddows.
No 10 bit. Is not PRO
@@ParisWalking agree
Looks like Poseidon's Trident got an upgrade 😂 Love your videos dude!
Ace pro 2 has issue
When recording in cold environment inside the lens guard get foggy.
For the low light stuff, you kind of did DJI dirty here, because they have actual night modes that are substantially better - and in my opinion likely measurably better than the Ace Pro 2. You also kept DJI and GoPro in 8 bit normal color when they both have 10 bit options even without log. This isn’t a fair or true comparison
I used DJI's SuperNight mode in every single low light comparison in this video. Didn't do anyone dirty!
@@ChaseTheSummit oh based on what you wrote, you didn’t indicate that the DJI was in the night mode.
@@CaliforniaPhantom yeah sorry about it. If it’s dark assume they’re all in their respective night modes!
How is the photo quality?
Good for an action camera but any high end phone will take better pictures
Will the DJI drone ban affect their cameras?
@@SamuraiSmm I don’t think so
Did they address the focusing issue?
Yes
Does the AP2 work plugged into USB-C power without the battery?
No, still needs the battery but it can be powered via USB.
@@ChaseTheSummit dang. For FPV, was hoping you could remove the battery for weight savings especially since the camera is heavier than the competition. May have to stick with GoPro =/
Question: can you use this camera out the box without needing the app?
Nope, has to be "activated" in the app. Pretty annoying but it's the same with DJI as well. The GoPro can be used without the app.
Does this camera keep the lowlight stabilisation on for quick capture?
The camera defaults to whatever settings you last used including Pure Video stabilization... yes!
@@ChaseTheSummit It's not pure video stab in the ace pro, it's either low light stab during Pure Video or during other video mode. But that setting is not saved for quick capture. It's so stupid. It saves the color profile, it saves the EV setting, but never the low light stab! Are you sure that that setting is turned on or off if that was last used for quick capture?
wow sorry just found out this was fixed in an firmware update. Anyway thanks for your review. It looks like I am still good with the original ace pro.
Your videos are awesome, I have the basis to buy a new machine.❤❤
Apakah ada fitur auto focus produk showcase??
Dude, that clip of you running through the woods at the end was dope as f***! Was that a mini drone? Did you crash that thing yet?
Crashed so many times lol
@@ChaseTheSummit If you're not crashing occasionally, you're leaving cool shots on the table 🤣
I will never understand why so many people out there that use a so-called swear word in a half ass manner. Why not just say that it was "dope." That gets you point across just as well as saying that it was dope as fuck.
Edit: To be clear, it is the self censoring that I don't get. If you don't want to swear, then why not just use non-swear words.
@@mikemccormick6128 - My bad. I won't let it f**king happen again.
Without being stubborn and no regret, I don't mind having the 1st gen of this. The fact that I have to fiddle with the wind protection screen is kinda awkward. What if I don't have it with me and I'm going to water?
You can simply remove the wind screen. The camera is waterproof without either of the covers.
@@ChaseTheSummit Ahh, ok. Makes sense. My gen1 actually had water damage so Insta360 replaced it for free.
you have excat data of nearest focus length? i think gopro13 is better than this thing on that part
I don't think they have a spec. In my experience it seems like 15 inches or so which is fine for vlogging situations. The GoPro can get a little bit closer but not by much unless you use the macro lens. It's a significant improvement over the Ace Pro 1.
I love my action 5 pro. Tbh, they look similar!
The Ace Pro 2 and DJI Action 5 both use the same sensor... which might explain why they look so similar!
@@ChaseTheSummit oh that’s VERY interesting. That is going to simultaneously make a lot of people mad and happy. Like most things these days. lol. Thank you for the comparison. No doubt, these are both great cameras. I would argue that form factor and features wise, they are different enough to get both, which (sadly to my bank account) I probably eventually will.
Hey, quick question, I have the GoPro Hero 12, is that the same sensor as the GoPro 13? I love my GoPro 12 (in good light). Thanks for all the info! Great content on your channel!
@@babyboy1971 yup Hero 12 and 13 share the same sensor. It’s great in good light but suffers in the dark.
100% dji 5 for the win as video quality looks far better ace 2 looks to cartoonish. il go with dji and nicer screen bit smaller and its adji .OVER AND OUT
when the Ace Pro 1 looks better than the new one :l
It really only happens in one specific use case under weirdly colored lights. I suspect Insta360 will fix that via firmware. In just about every other scenario the Ace Pro 2 is superior.
Insta360 wasting money partnering with leica instead of making the action cam great.
I mean, it seems like a good lens? I wonder what the license fee costs? What isn't great about this in you opinion?
Why is it a waste of money?
What's the minimum focusing distance? It's better 😂
Better lol. I'd say the same if night a smidge better than DJI / GoPro but none of these are macro cameras unless you're using the GoPro with attached macro accessory.
16:12 AP5 much better looking here, and much cheaper
Like I said, this only happens in a VERY unique situation under strangely colored lights. In just about every other scenario the AP2 and AP5 look very similar. In some cases the AP2 is superior in other cases the AP5 looks better. They both use the same sensor so that's not surprising.
I suspect that Insta360 will fix the funky colored light situation in a firmware update in the near future.
Is built-in storage really necessary? I wouldn't buy a camera just for that. It’s not even a selling point.
Necessary? No. But it's a nice perk considering the DJI is $50 cheaper and includes it. Handy if you forget an SD card, have a corrupt SD card, lose your SD card while out filming, etc... to have a backup storage and enough of it to film for a couple of hours!
Ah good, a reviewer I trust. Looks to be a good review
Thanks! If only TH-cam wouldn't bury it under all of the sponsored videos!
17:35 GoPro nailed it. In the dark it’s supposed to look like that. 😂😂😂
GoPro is not designed for low light recording. It's designed for action sports. These other cameras are designed for vlogging.
@@Cameraflyer-On point.
Excellent
Thank Chase the Summit for this DETAILED video. I love your HONESTY when you say this video is NOT SPONSORED even though you receive the camera for free. I won't buy it because of 2 reasons. First, it's still only 8 bit color while GoPro 13 & DJI Action 5 support 10 bit. From my experience, after I edit the 8 bit color footage, the color becomes muddy, not vibrant as the original footage. Second, I'm sure that version 2 of this camera still requires the user to download its mobile app and register the camera before being allowed to use it. It's a huge privacy concern for me. GoPro does not require this.
dji osmo action 5 pro is amazing; i will buy it
Ok weird question. How is the zoom ok ? So if 2x at 8k and you get 4k the video is still saved at 8k no ? Isn't it the same that gp does with 1.2 ie zoom (or post process ) at 5.3 k? Of course less zoom but still, you don't want to upscale the 4k either to 5.3k or 8k ... Right ? Or am I silly ?
And hey great video bruv. Thank you so much.
Also go pro looks like in the forest had the true low light somehow.
But wow the insta on low light!!! Although 1 looks better maybe on some shots.
The zoom is great on the Ace Pro 2 because it's cropping into an 8K image instead of digitally sharpening a 4k crop. So you're getting true lossless 4K even at 2x zoom.
@@ChaseTheSummit ah yes. Read a bit more and you are. Ideal ie if you record at 4k and want to zoom 2x for example right ?
@@DimitriosKanellopoulos yup!

What does insta360 means?? it does not record 360°
@@philippinen_blog_ch it’s just the brand name. They make 360 action cameras but this one is a standard action camera.
I hope insta software patches that dark mode blurry purple face issue u mentioned tysm
I had a call with them and they were super interested in what I had to say. It seems like they're working on it. The fact that they use the same sensor as DJI means it's definitely a software bug.
great review, but unfortunately another video full of DJI bots...the only thing that Insta360 didn't do well on the ace pro 2 is not buying bots😅people chose to be blind and ignore the huge advantage of the ap2 in low light come on
Is that what's going on here? Because the comment section on action camera videos seems to be a dumpster fire compared to other topics lol.
You sound like a bot. First of all there is no huge advantage. That sounds like misinformation to me. The difference in low light performance between the Ace Pro 2 and
Action Cam 5 is objectively small. Second of all, he is not saying to buy the DJI over the Insta360. He very clearly said that they are all good cameras and each camera has their own pros and cons. Thirdly, how can you say "another great video, but unfortunately another video full of DJI bots..." That is a total contradiction.
DJI Osmo Acyion 5 Pro❤❤❤❤❤
Nobody wants to charge their phone off their camera. It's more of a party trick than anything.
Do you know every user in the world? lol. I'm sure someone out there was like "WOW! Just what I needed!" but I'm sure it's a small percentage. Still... it's a free feature so why not take it.
Apparently, you were not paying very close attention to the video. He said in the video exactly what you just stated. Of course no one wants to charge their phone with their camera. This feature is an Emergency Use feature. This is something that could help you in an emergency type situation. Just like the internal storage in the Action Cam 5. The amount of storage they give you is insignificant. You would only use the internal storage if you forgot your SD card.
One day I will own a DJI ACTION PRO 🤲🏽🤲🏽📿📿
Insta360 needs to stay with only 360 cameras, that just my opinion
Why?
@@ChaseTheSummit I feel like 360 cameras from them are way better then action cameras from the beginning
can we use external mic on it?
Yes, it supports bluetooth microphones like the DJI Mic 2, Rode Wireless Go, Wireless II, Pro etc... You can even use a pair of airpods as a mic.
