I am a 72 year old women that likes outdoor activities. I own a Go Pro Hero 3 that I never really got the hang of. I have decided that this is the camera for me. Pre-ordered your book! Getting the camera in February when the budget permits!
Best wishes 🎉
I have a GoPro 3 and this camera. The GoPro is such a piece of junk compared to this. You made the right choice.
I bought it today. Watching your video to know better with my new Insta 360 ace pro action camera. Thank you.
Great video Jordan, I’ve just finished filming my first video for my own channel using this action camera and you have definitely saved me some time. I’m blown away by the run time from the battery, and the fact this camera doesn’t overheat is a game changer for me. I’m just about to start editing my footage and I’m already impressed with the clarity of the sound without the mic adapter. I wish I had watched your video before my first shoot as I think I’ve filmed a daylight scene in the night mode 😂
I'm only 5:40 into this video, and I'm impressed with your presentation, editing, and info. Thanks for the work you put into this!! 👍👍
EXCELLENT I just order this and it's my 1st action camera can't wait until it arrives thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video. Must have watched it 20 times now. It has really helped me with my Ace Pro since I got it 3 days a go. Thank you, subscribed, and Merry Christmas!
My Ace Pro is on the way! Can't wait till it gets here - thank you for the awesome video!
That pause feature on video is definitely pretty sick….saves on editing for sure…great review ✅
This was super helpful. Thank you.
Thank you a lot for the explanation. I bought this same exact camera and it was too much for me to deal with. Very easy to understand
ayeeee back with another one. always love your detailed and fun guides. keep up the good work my guy!!
Thank YOU so much! I appreciate the comment!
Reliable beginner's guide as always. Thanks so much for the information.
You're very welcome! Thank you for tuning in again and for the comment!
Great video. It was very helpful indeed. Thank you so much, appreciate your effort.
In new to my insta 360 ace pro, this video is very helpful thanks.
Great guide, Jordan! May I know which external mic you would recommend for this Ace Pro? Perhaps you could suggest one for self-talking/blogging and one for capturing the surrounding audio.Thanks!
Thanks for the walk through! I was wondering if the editing on the studio desktop is the same as editing on the phone? I mean all the features like AI etc.
Really helpful, thank you
Wonderful review. You covered a lot of ground in this one and showed me a few things I was not aware of. Of course, I've only had my Ace Pro for about a day.
One thing in particular that I like: you didn't try to compare (by name) this camera to it's competitors. Which almost everyone knows who they are. And almost
every other reviewer does. I have mostly relied on my GoPro Hero 10 Black for the last few years to use in my vlogs as well as a regular video camera. One of
the most frustrating things with that model was it's inability to capture clean low light footage. On a motion lapse it was fine, but for straight video, not at all.
Also, one of the things I noticed right away on the Ace Pro was the much improved audio. It's not as clear as a lavalier mic system, but for on the fly video
capture it does very well. You've got a new subscriber as well. I very much like your level, even way of making your point.
Hi!!! I already brought My new ACE pro here at Honolulu and your explanation of functions of this great camera, opened My eyes....thanks a lot...hat off
Great! Thank you so much for the comment and aloha across the channel! Have fun with your new camera!
thank you so much. everything i needed to know and more
This is awesome , just came up on one , gotta get some of the pieces for it but super powerful
I love all your videos! Very helpful! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your comment so much!
Hi I was thinking of purchasing the Dji Osmo pocket 3 .Which do you recommend and why .Great video thanks
Awesome, thank you!
Amazing review. What is the best selfie stick that you can use to connect electronically to the camera to take pictures or record using a button on the stick?
excellent video, I just bought this camera!
Any suggestions on mode(s) to use for the upcoming eclipse? My intent is not to capture the eclipse itself, but rather the people and surrounding environment as it transitions to totality.
Does the iOS app work well on an iPad? Thank you for your videos. Love all the info.
Amazing you❤ and camera ❤
This was a fantastic tutorial. Thanks very much!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much!!!
Any tip for getting the warp to be fully gone? I just got the Ace Pro and while it's nice, I don't find it better than the GoPro Hero 12. The de-warp on the Ace Pro does not fully de-warp. I also don't find the video quality as great as everyone posts about. My side-by-side comparison shows the hero 12 to have better clarity. I use the hero in 5.3k with flat coloring. I have used the Ace Pro in 6k and 4k with flat and medium color and neither produced results as good as the Hero 12. I'm trying to find what I'm missing since everyone who posts about the Ace Pro says it is superior to the Hero 12 in video quality. Any thoughts?
You do the best reviews!!
THANK YOU!!!
Thanks for the video! Mine is arriving today. Looking forward to using it and my Insta 360 X3 on Maui this coming January.😎
Nice! Hopefully I see you around! Enjoy the new camera👍
Nice jordan can you please tell me the what is the mount u are using for the insta 360 camera
They completely won this round, but I want to see what are going to be the next bells and whistles on the next generation when all 3 have seen Insta’s great ideas and major chances…..nice video thanks 🙏 may you all have a great holiday season
Yes, the Ace Pro will deftinitely push a fresh round of innovation on the next round of action cameras. Those 48MP photos and 8k video set a pretty high bar.
Hi! Do you have a video comparison for insta360 go 3 and ace pro? I'm having a hard time to decide which will I get since it is my 1st action cam. Hope you notice my comment😊
great video
Excellent 👌
Thanks for this excellent tutorial video, this is one of the best for ace pro. I just bought and this helps me a lot. What is the best water resistant selfie stick to use this under wet conditions.
You're very welcome! If you are looking for a floating handle that will float the Ace Pro with its larger size, I put a link in the description to the DJI handle. I use the Insta360 Invisible Seflie Stick in the water too, but it doesn't float and you need to be very careful that no sand is on the pole when you compress it. The sand can get stuck in the extension pieces and make it impossible to open or close. I hope that helps!
Thank you, very helpful! If you need to record an interview with someone in the field is the in-camera-mic good enough for both people such that no one needs to wear a mic? If more audio recording (boost?) is needed is there any way to sync/attach an external mic? And are the extendable selfie-stick and boom invisible on selfie recordings? That was the initial feature that attracted me to an insta360 camera originally, but they don’t look “invisible” in your video here. Hope all those ?s make sense. Thanks again!
Great questions! I've found the in-camera quality is really clear and would be more than acceptable for interviews. However, if you want to add an external mic, you can use the mic adapter and plug a mic in. You can also boost the external mic in the settings even more if needed.
As far as the invisible selfie stick goes, this is a regular single lens action camera, not a 360 camera, so the selfie stick will be visible in the shot if it's in the shot when you film. Insta360 has a tool to erase it in the their mobile app, but you may be looking for a 360 camera like the X3 if you want those invisible selfie stick shots all the time.
I hope that helps you decide!
torn between x4 and ace pro just a casual user for holidays and family events what would you recommend thanks
Hi. Does this camera have a quick start mode like the GoPro's?
Hello Jordan, I just got my Ace Pro and can't find how to rotate the footage 180 degrees after recording with the top of the camera facing downwards on the chest strap. Is there a way to do that on Insta360 app?
Thank You information
What MP do you get in burst mode? Can you get 48mp? Or is it low.
Hi, regarding the poles and floating handles; the handle at 21:33 (i guess it's the standard Insta360 Floating Handle), does not float it?
Also, the pole at 23:37, is the Max Grip? Does it fare well in sea water? (seen some review that it gets stuck and doesn't open/close) I guess this doesn't float.
Hi, can I do live streaming directly from insta360 app? or how to stream it onto my personal facebook with the insta360 ace pro ?
Great video thanks! Can you quickly explain if the horizon lock can be set in all video modes like normal video, pure video, freeframe video?
Thank you! Regular video mode has a Horizon Lock lens, but it levels the Horizon when the camera tilts slightly. Pure Video does not have any horizon lock, whereas FreeFrame Video has the full 360 Horizon Lock.
Can this camera also record while charging? I mean, when charging with a PowerBank, can you record at the same time?
This camera has been an eye opener for me as to its capabilities that far exceeds anything I expected. I just got mine and will play with it this weekend. Your video was very useful for giving me an overview. I did pre-order your book. Thanks - it will be a great in-depth resource. I did order the audio interface - so will have to experiment with that. The real question is when I bring it into Davinci Resolve and then try to do multi-cam with other cameras - especially my iPhones with BMC app, and a drone to be able to do some creative editing switching different perspectives. It would be great if you follow up with a series of videos expanding our knowledge of this powerful and amazing camera. Thanks again for educating us. ♥♥♥
Hi Chris,
Thanks so much for the comment! Glad to hear that you are enjoying the Ace Pro's capabilities. You should have no problem creating videos using multiple cameras since the Ace Pro records mp4's. Stay tuned and I'll try to create some more videos to help with other aspects of the Ace Pro. Thanks again!
Detailed Explanation
Thanks for your professional review, please advise whether Insta360 Ace Pro can take Photo+Video simultaneously, like ex GoPro5
Yes, the Ace Pro has an on-screen icon that allows you to take a photo while recording video.
@@JordanHetrick can you show it how it works on your next video, and send me a buzz to watch it please
sir insta 360 pro mai portrate mode mai video or photo capture kar sakte hai kya or sir live streming mai add kar sakte h kya please sir reply me Thanks 🙏
Thanks for this! Newbie on action cameras... so just wondering how the mounting would be different if I want to use it vertically?
Great question! If you want to mount the camera vertically, Insta360 makes a Vertical Quick Mount that you would need to purchase additionally.
I have been using GoPros since the Hero3 so I consider myself pretty experienced. However any time I have upgraded my camera which has been a lot I still purchase your books because they are just so well done. About a year ago I upgraded my GoPro Max to an Insta360 X3 and fell in love with the Insta360 platform and of course bought your book as I did when I purchased the Go3. I just received my Insta360 Ace Pro a couple of days ago and the first thing I did was to look for your book on it, but could not find it. Very happy to know it is now available and will be downloading it immediately. I also recommend your books to ally friends that use action cameras, especially the ones that are new to the game. Keep up the great work.
Ahhh that makes me really, really happy to hear! What an honor that you have found so much help with my books. It's always a commitment when I dive into creating a book for a new camera, so it's really rewarding to hear from long time readers like you! Thank you so much for all of your support and for recommending my books to your friends. If you ever have a chance to leave a review on Amazon for any of my books, it really does help me out a lot. I love for readers to get honest reviews!🙏
@JordanHetrick I will leave a review on amaxon for your book and have pre-ordered the book for the Ace Pro.
@@JordanHetrick 23:34
Hello Jordan, I am new to all this and I just ordered a new Insta360 ace pro and want to order your book but I’m not sure how to do that. Would appreciate you sharing how I can maybe grab a link or how I go about ordering it. Thank you for your help.
Thank you so much!
This is an excellent resource. Amazon states your book isn't available yet.
Nice one ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
Which camera you used to shoot this video??
A I WARP can be use for children's shows possibly
Does this camera record in Log Profile?
What did you do about the autofocus problem
Can you still use the Active HDR while in Free Frame Mode? Also, is there any need to buy the ND filters for the Ace Pro to help with motion blur?
Hi Stacy,
Active HDR only works in regular Video Mode. If you want to create motion blur in bright daylight, ND filters will help, but Insta360 also added a new Motion ND effect in their apps that will help add motion blur after you record.
I have used your affiliate link and i got 50£ discount on Creator kit thank you so much for this and i love your video mate 😊 keep going
Awesome, thank you! I'm glad you were able to get the discount 👍
Hi Jordan, does the camera support protective case cover?
Hi Svara,
Yes, Insta360 makes the Dive Case which will protect the camera. I put a link in the video description. Thanks for asking!
@@JordanHetrick In case if I use it for motorcycle ride I might need a protective case
Which device to use to transfer 8k videos ???
Jordan first view with this ❤❤❤
Nice! Thanks for checking it out!
Do you know if the two-pronged mount/attachment with screw fits into GoPro accessories?
It does 👍 Just used my AcePro with my GoPro mounts.
@@DanielWilliamIronside Awesome, thanks!!
Hi there what's a recommended sd card speed? I remember my x2 will prompt saying the class ten card is too slow
The Ace Pro requires a V30 or higher card. That should work great for you!
@@JordanHetrick Ahh so sandisk extreme should be enough. We don't need the extreme pro?
I use the Extreme Pro, but technically, the Extreme should be sufficient.
@@JordanHetrick I bought extreme pro too since the price difference wasn't a lot
Nice video! Which one do you recommend between Gopro 12, dji action 4 and this Insta360 ACE PRO for riding in Vtt bike, skiing, jet skiing, recording Balads and family life moments day and night? I think Ace pro is the best choice, don't you?
With non removable lens and almost same night shots I think dji action 4 would be better choice since we get adventure pack at same cost which has 2 extra batteries and charger, extra lens etc with dji.
Hi! Well, that is a very tricky question because of the wide variety of filming conditions. The Ace Pro definitely takes the cake for the night moments. Recording family sports and activities from a distance is also going to be better with the Ace Pro because of the 8k sensor, which allows 2x zoom without losing resolution. For all of the action sports, the Hero 12 would take the lead with it's super wide angle lenses and stabilization. But the Ace Pro is comparable in those aspects as well. Besides the low light filming and 2x zoom, I would say it comes down to preference. The DJI Action 4 also produces really high quality videos, not quite as good at night as the Ace Pro, but the quality in bright light is really good. Honestly, I like all three of them. Which company and style camera feels better to you? I hope that helps you decide.
Thanks for your input!
@@JordanHetrick the fact we will have to agree is at night video definitely ace pro outsmarts dji but people who don't live in USA it is a problem with removablr lens cover if damaged.
Could you please clarify whether by clicking shutter button we can pause and resume video. Since I mount it on helmet it is not possible to use front screen to pause and resume since we wear heavy gloves too.
2. Whether any type of tws Bluetooth ear phones we can pair with ace pro? Some reviews said they paired airpods which all don't use.
@@JordanHetrick thanks for the detailed answer! It's hard to choose but I think I will go for ace pro!
Do you know if the random Standart accessories kits which we can find on Ali express fits with ace pro ?
Tks
Hi Jordan, can you help, please? I think I have just broken the USB-C/ SD card door before I even got to use the camera. I have tried every which way to re-attach it. It seems to have a sliding clip that might hold it in place but I cannot get it to work. Any ideas? Thanks
Hi, Hopefully, it didn't break on you and just came off. It's a little tricky to reattach the door if you haven't done it before. There's a little c-clasp at the top of the door. That fits onto the metal bar that you can see on the camera. Put your pointer finger on top of the door and your thumb below. Use your thumb to keep the bottom part extended and slide it back onto that clasp. I hope that works for you!
Thanks,@@JordanHetrick I will give it a go.
What is the specific version of adroid phone to insta 360 software? My Samsung A11 is not compatible to insta 360 software.
The Insta360 App requires Android 7.0 and up, but as far as specific phone models, I am still searching for that info.
does it also have the 360X3 magic selfie stick effect
Hi John,
The Ace Pro is not a 360 camera so it doesn't have the invisible selfie stick effect. There is a selfie stick removal tool in the Insta360 App, but since it's digitally removing the selfie stick, it doesn't work as well as filming with a 360 camera.
I just got min and it says that the ai warp is free until 12/31/23, do you know if there will be a fee after?
Great question! After that date, you will still be able to make 3 AI Warp videos per day for free. If you want to make more than that, you will have to sign up for a premium plan.
Can it still store photos & videos if there is no sd card?
No, a microSD card is required to record.
Can someone explain what to do ,my ace pro stops recording in 30 seconds or 1 min ,I have vlog limitless still the card seems to be a problem stops videos in 1 minute or under I cannot seem to film more minutes
Thanks! Only comment when showing icons slow down and zoom in. Loved the video
Thank you SO MUCH! I'll try to incorporate your advice in the next video. Have a great day!
how do you see the percentage of battery left and not just a tiny little icon that's hard to see?
It's just the icon to go by. A percentage would be nice.
Seems to be an action camera with more professional-level features. Could be an interesting development in the action camera market as a whole.
Yes, it's definitely stepping up the action cam level! I'm loving the larger sensor and 48MP photos. Tons of great new features that people have often asked me about are included in this camera. Thanks for the comment!
I have a question to the community in general: As I am pondering my first camera, I have noticed that this specific camera has a FIXED Lense guard that cannot be removed per website, what are your thoughts on this? There also is not a protector cover. In essence, my worry is if this scratches, i'd be SOOL. What are your thoughts? Have you had a history of issues on other products scratching?
My initial: I feel that this is a better camera in many ways compared to DJI and GP. With that, the night time AI update is really nice. The fact with a hinged screen it is still water resist up to 30ft, is nice. My only hesitation is the inability to replace the lense cover like the others. That is literally my ONLY hesitation. I also would expect that DJI may come out with a DLC for osmo 4 with night AI as the sensor is the same.
Can they put ai on dji 4 ?
Well i was thinking to buy insurance from amazon for 2 years and includes insurance from inta for 1 year but is only 1 time so what happens if u drop it 2 times xd 😂 u fuck
Can we use ace pro as a webcam?
Yes, you can use Ace Pro as a webcam.
How do you do it. Can't figure out how to. @@JordanHetrick
Hey Jordan, wow, you must have put a lot of effort into this in-depth video. I was waiting for your review on the Ace Pro before I made my purchase. now I think it is a safe call to place my order. 😁the image quality is quite amazing on this camera, thanks for the review!
Awesome! I'm glad to hear that my video help give you the confidence. I'm sure you will love the camera and stay tuned for more videos on it! Have fun with the new cam👍
Can't use it on Facebook live😢
Its asking for a password to connect to camera and app
Thanks for the nice video of this great camera. I would never buy it. It would be terrible for vloging because you can't see what you are shooting until you flip the screen over, by then you see camera shake like crazy. Why did they not let you see image on front of camera? Big mistake as far as I'm concerned. I would rather see my face rather then settings. Not good! Thanks for sharing.
where is the 8k opsion it only shows 4k not 8k
The firmware I was using when I first filmed this video didn't have the 8k option, but it should be there now for you next to the 4k option.
We need zoom 30x like apple .... Most action camera fails....
I use zoom on my Iphone all the time and the quality is pretty bad, but yes, it can zoom in far.
Why you need zoom on an action cam
Audio quality test
Yes, I'll work on that in some upcoming videos. Thanks for the request!
Is this a sponsored video?
Hi Resh, yes, it is. Hope you enjoyed it!
The lense cover IS Removeable!!!
I've heard there is a third party tool to remove the lens cover, but Insta360 does not recommend removing the lens cover. Do you have the name of the tool or more info for other people watching this video? Thank you!
Saw it on TH-cam, as it played after a rebuttal complaint over why not to buy
How do you use the Ace Pro as a Webcam. Can't figure out how to. @JordanHetrick
Really funny filming the insta360 with DJI Pocket 3 😂😂😂❤
Thanks for the comment. I didn't use the Pocket 3 though for any of the clips in this video.
