It’s crazy how well exposed the colours look underwater for an 8bit camera. Not sure if I prefer the look of the action 5 colours with its white balance sensor it’s a tough one

[sesimbratours]

Any distortion using AOI UWL-03 lens ?

Possible to customize button for WB ?

[hazwanwalker]

what nd filters to use for scuba diving ?

[marklosentes]

HDR can be enable @ 4k 60FPS. with I-LOG video profile enabled?

[jordanhamelin]

Hello! Thanks for the amazing review. I just got my camera for an upcoming trip to the Maldives. Do you use I-log when shooting underwater or is the footage not that great to work with, even with scuba mode active? Follow up question, did you try shooting in purevideo mode? I wonder if the better lowlight performance of purevideo helps even without HDR mode....

[BurhanMuntasser]

Are there accessories for UW use available for this Insta360 camera such as color filters, wet optics (macro and WA lenses), housings, etc. as is available for the GoPro?

[AquaticRod]

No 10-bit color support... not even through a firmware upgrade?

[bosdiver]

Great video but very frustrating when you own the Insta 360 Ace Pro 1. Used it for about a year now and have got some great footage. Those upgrades sound great.

[marklosentes]

does it resolved the issue related to the constant color shifting ? it is an existing issue on AcePro gen1

[AdamHelb]

Can you comment on the 8 bit color of this camera. Is this a limitation compared to the 10 bit color of the other cameras.

[deepzvij]

Hello, are you able to advise if the Ace Pro dive case fits for ace pro 2 as well? Are the dimensions same?

[markster]

Hello were any of the underwater images shot using a red filter? Thank you

[DJISupportGlobal]

Hi there. Regarding your mention that the Osmo Action 5 Pro triggered the deep dive mode at only 8m underwater. We need you to provide the following information so that we can better help you.
1) Original material (the material name starts with DJI)
2) Camera Log
3) Time of failure (year, month, day, hour, minute)
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

[Nando_Diver]

When you compare the Ace Pro 2 VS Gopro 13, can you do some filming with HLG HDR on Gopro13 and upload the video to youtube in HLG HDR Mode, looks like the Gopro 11 & 12 dont have "true HDR" but the Gopro 13 encodes the video to BT2100 thanks

The rumors are that AcePro 2 is still shooting 8-bit footage only. Is it true?

[lutzplettig]

Hallo Matthias habe nur eine kurze Frage. Passt die Ace Pro 2 in das Unterwasser Gehäuse der Ace Pro Wäre mir sehr wichtig. Danke 🤝🏻 viele Grüße Lutz P. ✌🏻😎

[secretsofthelake]

wider field of view might be a problem with a standard flat port underwater housing

[nebe]

You didn't mention about the 8 bit color profile for post processing. Glad it sligthly implied on the verdict

[TchWarrir]

Could you include the insta360 X4 as well in your next video?

[sfiron]

Good to know. Still holding off regarding upgrade. I do think my next camera will be a GoPro again. Especially if there would be a native macro lens option underwater.
