Insta360 Ace Pro 2 Standard Dual Battery Bundle -8K Waterproof Action Camera Co-Engineered with Leica, 1/1.3" Sensor, Dual AI Chip, Leading Low Light, Superior Audio, Flip Screen & AI Editing

This camera is solid AF. I have already dropped it with no issues, cracks, dents. Glad I got insurance but dont need it yet. besides that. This camera is a workhorse. Lightweight so its super easy to carry around and pop out when I want to use it. (Lens cover is a must) I have put this battery to the the test and its lasted almost a whole day at 4K with turning it on and of for specific things. I love the 2x optical zoom at 4k using the 8k chip. I haven't used 8k much yet except for utilizing the 2x zoom. Love the pure video mode Feature. For night and low light shots its been great. I live in Chicago where its cloudy and dark often through the year. So having an easy to access camera that still pulls its weight at night is great. Besides the rain we get I dont use it around water too much. But will update if I put the waterproof capabilities to the test. The mounting on this camera is solid too. I feel so secure when its locked in. I will get some photos and a video up soon. Just slow to it, but wanted to leavea review before I forgot. Fun camera for seriously any adventure.

I'm really impressed that such a small action camera can shoot in 8K! It's super convenient to have this compact camera with me for trips and hikes. It's lightweight and the image quality is fantastic—everything looks super clear on a screen afterward. I love the clarity zoom feature; it makes it so easy to zoom in on distant scenery. I did some comparing before buying, and ace pro 2 seemed like the best all-around option. Great image quality, has a flip screen, and it's waterproof too, making it versatile for all kinds of situations.

I bought this for diving, and it's totally worth it! The color reproduction is fantastic, with footage looking pretty much like what you see with your own eyes, way better than my previous gopros. If you want even better colors, there's the aquavision feature in the app you can use. I’m also a big fan of ace pro 2's low light capabilities. The footage looks great even in dark underwater conditions. Love the flip screen too! It’s super handy for framing selfies when I’m not using the dive case (heads-up: it doesn’t flip with the case on, but that’s a tiny trade-off). If you’re serious about underwater filming, this camera won’t disappoint.

So far So good! Simple, good quality, both with the physical camera, and especially with the video, all formats, 1080, 2.7k, 4k, and now 8k. Well built, and I love the flip up screen, audio is really good. The included wind screen attachment is well engineered and does a great job to quiet the wind and other noises. Overall, you can't go wrong. I strongly recommend, especially for that beginner, or young videographer, simple yet lots of settings and options.

I loved my Ace Pro however i broke it along with my fpv drone crashing into a tree. It still works and records, just the screen doesn't work anymore. Luckily this Ace Pro 2 came out at the same time so i had to pick it up. The wind muff is actually really good, especially for drone footage, it blocks out a lot of the wind noise when flying fast or sideways. Everything about this camera is so much nicer than the first Ace Pro, especially the UI. Video quality still amazing, night footage is just so far beyond any camera of this size or price it's not even a competition.

Video quality is amazing, audio tooFirst time trying Insta360 and wow—this camera rocks! I watched a bunch of reviews saying the Ace Pro 2’s audio beats other action cams, and they’re 100% right. The mic’s wind muff actually works—way less wind noise on my motorcycle rides. The video quality is even better than I expected. I really love the vibrant colors straight out of the camera, and the first-person riding footage is incredibly immersive.

As a small camera, this is a good device when judged by the image quality it produces.But operating it in the cold, or outdoors in challenging conditions is a real kludge. The menu system is poorly organized and difficult to impossible to use with gloves. A full rewrite of the menu system would make it much better.Very dissapointing to have such an expensive thing come without a fully usable standard mount or 1/4-20 hole. Very agressive data collection from the manufacturer, with precise location required to register.While it got pretty warm and drained a lot of battery just getting setup, the stabilizaion and color look far better than expected. There are a lot of color modes to get a nice, natural image right out of the box, or to go more vivid. Low light is also very impressive. For me, the thing itself seems good, but the slap in the face of having to go order more stuff and wait, just to use it, puts it to a one star for me. But I raised it because the image looks good.From what I see of the mounting system, thousands of these things will be smashed by the roadside or lost in a river. There is no place to loop a cable through it. Getting one of those "surround style" mounts might help that, but it just gets heavier and more expensive. Maybe I'll just use some wire as a safety. Thing sure is heavy.After spending more $$$ and fuddling around trying to get a 1/4-20 system for it that is not like a dagwood sandwich of $$$ adapters that add leverage to the camera, I'm getting it worked out -- but I'm editing my rating to a single star now. Why? The all-metal "quick release" adapter is flimsey, and proprietary. Low profile adapters from other manufacterers fit, but they have some play in them. A little vibration is often enough to make something break in time. There is no excuse for not having a 1/4-20 adapter for this heavy little camera. Also, the lack of a sturdy passthrough for a lanyard is a very serious flaw. Each new adapter, required due to flawed design, adds more weight and cost.The bluetooth remote has a range of about 40 feet inside the house, which is about the same as the low-security wifi range. The app, from what I can see, does not allow a blue-tooth-only connection to the device.
