    Couldn't agree more, the Ace Pro 2 raises the bar with incredible video quality. That chip and sensor combo is a game changer. GoPro, you had a good run!

    Hearing about the minimal noise in dark areas thanks to the new sensor has me sold. Planning to order mine ASAP!

      I also watched some reviews and they're very similar - they even use the same sensor I believe! So yeah, it definately is worth it to do more research on both of them.

    The microphone cover is an absolute game changer imho, no need for media mods or foam covers. 8k for crop in is decent too. I wouldn’t bother with the accessories you recommend other than the magnetic mount.

  • @mdraselhoque1

    DCRainmaker claims that some youtube reviews of this camera had to be approved by inst360 before they were allowed to release their vids. Can you confirm whether this video was subject to this?

    • @OscarHikes
      @OscarHikes  3 месяца назад +1

      Sure, it's the Insta360 Magnetic Selfie Stick Holster, mounted between the Insta360 Multi Mount, and the standard mount that comes with the Ace Pro 2.

    I might actually save up for 6 months to get this wow! Looks good and its not a bad price compared to Gopro where you're at that point just paying for the brand itself.

    Awesome basic review of the insta360. I suggest more detail in product reviews also don't do reviews unless a company pays your for it. These corporations pay millions to various media companies for advertising.

  • @hans_im_glueck-lel
    @hans_im_glueck-lel 3 месяца назад +2

    i like your review a lot! I'm having an X4, do you think ace pro 2 would be a nice addition or unnecessary? Frankly after your footage I think I don't need it.

    • @OscarHikes
      @OscarHikes  3 месяца назад +4

      I don't think you need it if you already have the X4. I think a good combo is DSLR + X4 or DSLR + Drone. But if you're getting just one camera, I would recommend the Ace Pro 2 for most people becuase it's like something in between a DSLR and an Action camera, so you get the best of both worlds.

    Where did you get the fabric case, I have searched online with no results.

    • @OscarHikes
      @OscarHikes  2 месяца назад

      They sent it to me! I just checked and it looks like they backtracked on it and now only a slightly larger case is available: store.insta360.com/product/ace-pro-2-carry-case?from=products_recommended
      I do agree that it's a bit weird because right now, they aren't offering even a small, regular fabric sleeve or anything like that to protect it. Let's hope that they're just struggling with production and that it will be available soon! If not, I'm sure you can find some alternative 3rd party case that fits the regular Ace Pro. I think they're the same size.

      Sounds great! I received mine a couple of days ago. I've been testing it and it shoots really amazing both videos and photos! I accidentally dropped it without a case cover and only a nick on the viewing monitor that flips. Solid as a rock! The audio is perfect overall for such a tiny machine!

  • @butfirstcoffee1175

    interesting, I don't see any video compare HDR ON and HDR OFF ???

    • @OscarHikes
      @OscarHikes  3 месяца назад

      Yeah honestly I should have included it looking back at this! But I don't really see a reason why you would want to shoot without HDR. To conserve file size or battery maybe? For low-light, you got PureVideo mode (shown in the video), which doesn't use HDR. In daylight, I would always want to shoot with HDR on anyway. By the way, 8k30fps and 4k120fps shots starting from 02:28 are shot without HDR because it's supported only up to 4k60fps.

    You know what? I am a regular viewer of your RUclips Channel. I have seen all your videos and your content qualities are very good. I learned lots of things from you. Your channel has great quality contents but still it is not delivering its right audiences due to SEO problems. You should focus on your SEO so that You can get a big fanbase, Thanks.

    i dont think the 8k is 8k , its good , but i dont believe thats the real quality

    • @OscarHikes
      @OscarHikes  3 месяца назад +2

      I think that was the case with the previous version of the Ace Pro. I don't know about this version though. But it has a better image sensor compared to the previous version. Anyway, I think that realistically, the footage is comparable to an entry-level DSLR, which would cost very similarly!

    No 10-bit color, weighs heavier than competitors, no larger sensor, no cloud storage /upload and delete option like go pro, and this year one less "budget model" released. No significant updates from insta 360 at all!!!
