Unboxed my Ace Pro 2 two days ago! I ordered it at the beginning of December and it arrived just in time for Christmas. I’m loving the improvements over the old model, especially the night shooting capabilities - it’s really impressive! The silicone lens protector is also a great addition. So far, I’ve only tested it in 4K 60p and haven’t tried 8K to see the difference. Can’t wait to test it more during my Bali trip next week!
Tested my acepro 2 that I just received after a month of waiting! I’m so disappointed with the quality of the video that it produce, 2.7K of this camera is pretty much useless vs my dji oa5 4K is pretty muddy and battery does not last long!
Finally got my acepro2 after waiting for 2 weeks! Ordered on December 11th, and just received the shipping update email this morning. Super excited to test it out. I’m upgrading from the GoPro 10, so really looking forward to the performance of the current action camera. Hope to get some good shots during my upcoming road trip next month. Merry Christmas to everyone!
Thank you for the video❤The AP2 looks great for outdoor shooting! Have you tried the I-Log feature with this clip or in any previous shoots? I'm really interested in it and would appreciate your feedback
You were right! ordered on December 14th with shipping scheduled for January 13th, this morning Insta360 made me find the shipping email under the tree, compliments to you and your sources. Merry Christmas to everyone.
I got my Pro 2 yesterday finally. There is an silicone lens guard ring around the lens and 1 spare in the box. There is also a sheet in the box talking about the wind guard being not fully waterproof and when it's rainy or in water to change it with the mic guard. It also tells when the lens fogs to turn it 45 degrees and shooting a video for 10min in 8k30fps. It says to keep the silicone lens ring attached always. Imso it looks like fogging is related with the wind guard passing some heat out fogging up the lens and the silicone ring is something they came up with. The ring fits perfectly btw, but lens cap protectors will not fit because of the ring. The Pro 2 also comes with the latest firmware and it's produced in October, so not a new batch or whatever.
Thank you for this info. There was no spare silicone lens guard ring when I received my camera in the original batch (there was the same info on the mic wind guard). I wonder if the stoppage was due to leakage of the lens, which is now fixed. We still have not gotten a straight answer from anyone on what happened that caused a stoppage of production. I want to know if I have a defective camera. The "insider" here should find out (if he really has contacts at insta36). insta360 now has reputation of being shady (with influencers). I don't care about that; I do care about the cameras.
@@sokarim no word about what is in the box about a silicone ring, spare etc. It is this where must potential customers will say why why why is insta360 not honest about what is happening with the ace pro 2?
Man thanks for the comment. If you follow my channel you know I get infos from time to time though I wish I am paid as well hehehe but unfortunately not. My unit is great no leaks no fog ... How about yours? On a side note, I bought a brand new Samsung to my dad, I opened the box and I tried to configure it for him. The screen glitches every 3 seconds. The unit was defective I sent it back. Is Samsung bad? Is Samsung gonna make a statement about it?I wish but they won't....
@@WiljanWiljan yes, only on the 1 sheet that I accidentally found out about. I had a lens cap that didn't fit on it, but saw something squeezing up and thought it was the cap and with the blind eye I didn't even noticed the ring and it's like a part of the lens :)
Hi there. Can I just ask you which programme you use to view xmp meta data. In still photography I have all I need available in Adboe Bridge. For video and especially for these action cams I would like some equally fast presenting all shot settings. Since you produce great vids all the time with precise specs can I ask what you prefer and use? Thanks.
@@photorabz Me too on stills. Just need to learn best use cases for the OS5. Surpriced how well it performs in low light at crazy high ISO values at auto ISO. Thus, looking for meta info in software I have or should get to learn best daylight settings for various case scenarios. I get a lot states their persona preferences but we all ahve different cases. Been while since I needed to lean a new action cam like this one and therefore looking for a swift xmp meta log. I will find out and thanksfor replying ;-)
Min focus distance around 45cm. Focus in my video is not bad. We can add sharpness but I dnt like that. Even on my big cameras I use black mist filter to remove that digital sharpness
@@photorabz When I ordered the Ace Pro 2 before the "inventory" problem (stll not explained by you or insta360) the website said 1-2 days dispatch, and indeed, the camera was shipped the day after I ordered it. Now it says 30 days, and the website has been updated in many ways so this is not likely neglect (there are new holiday specials, new offers, etc.). Why don't you ask your "insiders" why the website still says 30 days dispatch? I like the camera and want it to do well, and appreciate your channel, but I do not like misinformation. Should we trust you or insta360 for information on shipping?
@@markr041 You beat me to the punch with your question. I also still see the "30 days" note on the website and will confess that has given me pause (and still gives me pause) to upgrade. And that is largely because I am not convinced that it is significant enough of a change from the original Ace Pro ... at least not for my use case. It has not gotten lighter and the focusing distance is _nominally_ unchanged (which is expected given it is a non-focusing action camera). At this point I will wait ... possibly until they remove that note.
Website not updated on delivery times. So should we trust insta360 at this point.....if you have inside information, then why is the company not open themselves? And will wait for next firmware update to see if the known issues have been resolved
Thank you for your information. I hope to purchase some day Insta 350 camera. I don’t have money to buy two. Now I use DJI. My video will be today but I don’t know if the subtitles are available Jak Insta360 okłamało miliony klientów! Trauma! Nie dostałem zamówienia Ace Pro 2!

@@photorabz Thanks, might check it out. Just need something that quickly reveal shot settings for comparisons...
Usually I check those on each file

If you find smthg cool please keep me informed
All shops in Belgium have it in stock now. Will wait till later 2025 and see how the upcoming DJI Action 6 will compare to the Ace Pro 2.
DJI oa6 is lower than oa5 in features as I said before
Wow. I'm really going to have to test out that flat profile! It seems to really resolve the overly contrasty look.
Oh yeaaa
Hi, also in my videos, it always seems that the image is out of focus and i don't understand why. Even the 4k image always seems in low quality.
What is the distance you are filming at
@photorabz like in your video, about 1m. But also in your video you seems not in focus
Or maybe is the sharpness..
Min focus distance around 45cm. Focus in my video is not bad. We can add sharpness but I dnt like that. Even on my big cameras I use black mist filter to remove that digital sharpness
@@photorabz ah ok ok, so, maybe it's just me..😉 thanks
The website still says dispatch within 30 days. No difference from what it said a month ago. What is the evidence of "massive" shipping?
Lots of people got their cameras

30 days is the max time I think. I shared the info that I got...there are some regions slower than others as well
I shared the info I got.. lots of people got their cameras this week btw
Still not available in Romania..... I just don't have any clue what is happening. btw: did they fix the fog issue or the purple fringe ?
I dnt have these fog things. Try order online (link below) kz it's not available in shops now
