Insta360 ACE PRO - 3 Big Problems...

[jakeC-di]

my Ace Pro just arrived, and I gotta say I'm really impressed with the camera. It's way better than the GoPro 11 I used to have; the daytime quality is pretty much the same, but the night image quality is just so much better, now I can finally go out for the whole day with just one camera in hand

The Polaroid problem is common to all computer screens. Airline pilots cannot use Polaroid sun glasses to see their flat panel instruments. The classic Ray-ban Aviator preferred by pilots is now a no go. In order to prevent glare, sunglasses must be vertically polarized. Mother nature determines this. Most flat panels are horizontally polarized in the exterior filter, making sunglasses incompatible. I don't know if this was a conscious choice or ignorance, but it is inconvenient.

Stop faking video color. Better to be natural cus that's real

sound also will be cut off if u use certain mode and zoom in features, try counting and zoom in and out on different modes

Voice and video don’t sync if you download video from
Sd card direct to computer. I found that I had to use their software to process the video first

I am using ace pro for 3 weeks and i am very happy with it. I live in Antalya and i want to use a camera in sea, in pool and in rainy day. So action cam is very food option. But most action cams had overexposure problems in sunny days. Antalya is mostly very sunny in a year. Overexposure and backlight shadow problem is big. Ace pro solved this problem. I don't have so much time to edit 10 bit log to correct overexposure problems. Pocket 3 could be better than ace pro but it cannot be used in water and at rainy day. I use it inkee falcon plus gimbal and they are good combo.

I kept the back screen film that came with the camera on for as long as I could, and as long as the film was on, I could see the screen with my polarized sunglasses.

Noticed some really annoying software bugs as well, like every third or fourth recording won't apply my manual white balance settings, or the video will be slightly darker, etc. I've also had a few videos stop recording after a few seconds, which is super frustrating.

Refreshing to hear a different issue! You are correct about the polarized issue. My workaround was sort of expensive, but the remote watch accessary is very viewable with polarized lens, and it is much more handy if placed on the handlbar or on my wrist. I am not a 10 bit or log user but I am sure that it is important for many people. In saying this, I am very pleased with the quality of video that comes from this camera. I made a couple of adjustments in sharpness and EV and IMO the quality surpasses what comes from my GoPro. Not to mention how much easier it is to use the 360 software after capturing great images.

I just bought this camera for low light and I am impressed. The pocket 3 is better for low light but it’s not actually a camera that fits in my pocket because you need to use the protective case for the gimbal. I would call this camera an action light vlogger camera. Love your videos.

Well I like how Insta360 innovated the industry with this Ace Pro. Played around my Ace Pro for a whole week and I enjoy the hand gestures with the flip-up screen. The clarity zoom is awesome. Btw the 8K sensor brought so many more great things than I think.

I have all of the action cameras and so far the ace pro has been great snowboarding for me.
No issues with my goggles.

Only thing I wish is that even with the flip screen that the front screen still showed the image. When snowboarding I don’t pop up the flip screen so it stays durable.

So far that’s not caused any framing issues for me but it would still be a nice addition to have both.

I have audio sync issue with most of video. I use 4k 60fps (Motovlog), there is always 1-2sec delay in my audio. Any tips. (Firmware is updated)

[nickbailey]

You can't see the screen with sunglasses on? Who the hell made that design decision? That might be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Total deal breaker.

How does this not have log? Even the old One X2 had log (though still, no 10 bit).

[WiljanWiljan]

Agree that the softness could be improved

[mtnman]

I did a skydive with polarized sunglasses and learned that my altimeter has a polarized screen very quickly after exit when I couldn’t see my altitude.

[ryokohlivia]

The new PureVideo feature looks like it could really help capturing at night and low light！

[VirtuosityToniLekic]

ace pro ist BEST action camera I ever used (have gopro and dji too),
great HDR, low light, stabilization...
Image looks amazing IMO.

Yes this is a point and shout good in all automatic run and go people

I received the camera last week and the image quality is much better than my action 4 and 3. Especially in detail. I think the massive FOV of the DJI plays agains image quality when you use normal FOVs, since the crop reduces quality and makes it be sub-4K.
