Insta360 Ace Pro vs DJI Action 4

[@dominofive5075]

just picked up the DJI Action 4. The changeable lens won me over

[@EspenJohan]

Well thats easy, I have them both. The action 4 is much better, D-Log M on the action 4 is so much better. Thats for me is so important

[@crazyobservations3080]

Removable lens means you can use filters. Action 4 has internal wireless mic receiver.

[@joeabrenica4467]

I got all 3, the GP12, ACE PRO & ACTION 4…I prefer the ACTION 4 for all applications.

[@ArinDevani]

Why?

[@asalto71]

I have my Insta360 Ace Pro and i am making some videos these vacation days in Barranquilla, Colombia. The color of the sea, the holydays lights and the city in general look fantastic. It won the test. This camera is a legend!

[@glasgowharleyrider]

Fellow motovlogger here in Scotland , on my 2nd OA dji but could see me changing maybe Great insight . Thanks

[@khamkeo6]

hi i was just wondering if clip that you shot been edited after recorded and now shown on utube

[@WaqManVR]

Biggest issue is the focus distance on the insta

[@sethu.uumez-eronini7339]

I couldn’t decide because they both appear to be awesome so I got both.

[@babyboy1971]

Which do you prefer? And either Ace pro really better in low light? Any focus issue with Ace Pro?

[@sethu.uumez-eronini7339]

@@babyboy1971 In my opinion after using both, the Ace Pro is better in low light. Other than that, they are both equally matched in my opinion. But in the event there is an accident, DJI optional care refresh will fix or repair the Action 4.

[@mrpcakes]

wondering if dji and gopro incorporate a flip screen in the future. the action seems the better option to me

[@andreaslandgren8357]

Easy Action4 10bit Dlog 4:2:2. Ace Pro 8 bit 4:2:0

D log 4:2:0 10 bit

[@bradl2636]

You can’t tell the difference on most online platforms due compression.

[@mrjayd]

If I have a power bank connected to this camera on my bike, does it power the camera?

[@angeloflow_23]

Which one you prefer right now?

[@bradl2636]

Can either/both be custom white balanced in camera?

[@timmark4190]

How is the near focus? Say when you Vlog, is Ace Pro blurry?

[@MarufAlom]

yes it is

[@wargor]

I. hate when so-called influencers won't give their opinion on which camera they prefer and will use. I made my choice long ago, please say which one you prefer!

[@robinhannevig]

Can’t give you that answer now. I need to get this Ace on my motorcycle first…which is still in 3+ months😩

[@BrompMed]

All of them are sneaky and all of them they say the same thing but at the end none of them will give you straight answer and goes for one side , coz they don’t want to spoil their sponsorship with both companies 😂😂😂

[@iancraig]

I don’t think they’re being sneaky. Say one of them and I guarantee that viewers will turn up and disagree with you for some reason or other. Or, say something negative about an Action 4 for instance and watch the thumbs down on your stats from the Action 4 brigade. As a reviewer, you can’t really gain anything by pushing one or the other. For low light, Ace Pro. Normal daylight …. Either. For filters, Action. They screw on, not push on. Action 4 has an odd refraction thing when pointed at the sun. Both stabilise footage really well. As far as a normal video picture goes in daylight …. They’re really close so the Action might be a better value buy. The Action 4 is probably better for sports and action shots. Overall, I think I prefer the Ace Pro myself, but it’s a close call because of the price difference as well ….. He has pointed out 5 differences between them and placed footage from each next to each other. As reviewers, we presume that the audience has eyes, ears and a mind of their own. If you can’t see or hear any difference yourself, get the cheapest!

[@AirsoftRealSteelBoxing]

Im still undecided right now. Ive been wanting the flatness of dji oa4 but the stabilization and clarity in low light of ace pro. I use mine for airsoft videos and sometimes i play in dark gamesites. Usually need a divecase for protection. Sti can't decide which one to get 😢

[@iancraig]

@@AirsoftRealSteelBoxing it is difficult to choose between them in terms of video quality. I tend to use the Ace more usually than the Action 4 at the moment. The reason being that I am videoing different things during the day, inside and outside and the Ace pro is better inside. For real action stuff, the Action would be better I think. Tougher and smaller. The Ace is perhaps better for general videoing. One thing I have been doing is using Smoque filters and ND with the Ace and it really starts to look much less like an action camera shot then. Can’t use the Smoque (softening) filter so easily with the Action. There are no fittings made. Can get nd’s but that’s about it. I use a filter adapter on the Ace.

[@mikhail823]

I think , if you put your cam settings on every video samples you put out specially when comparing actions cams, will be more helpful and this will bring more value to these devices,.

[@mikhail823]

these are all great shots and really i just want to get you settings lol

[@JandonGames]

In normal light condition, I think Action 4 is better. And everything looks redder on the Ace Pro. I don't like it.

[@TakemesomewhereniceMCR]

I love how you are going super in depth - they are both ace. I'm really hoping they bring out a close focusing lens and a black pro mist filter because mine will mostly be used for work and I see this as a vlogging cam alternative rather than an action cam - I think it would really appeal to the ladies. My Dad surprised me with the Ace Pro yesterday which I was not expecting! Looks great, feels great, I like the weight, especially coming from the Canon 5D mk2 which I've just sold, I appreciate a bit of weight - as a first time action cam woman I love the flip screen especially for me as it may have to be mounted in tight corners or hang off a door, so that was my main reason for wanting one - that and it's sturdier than the Osmo Pocket 3. From what I've heard on KZbin the sound straight out of the camera is great. I think I'll probably be doing more voice overs TBH I best get to work on my channel as I have no excuses now!! Need a masterclass in storytelling now - I may tag you in my first walkabout vid but as we are in the middle of stormy season in the UK is sooo flipping miserable, I think its rained non stop for at least 10 days in Manchester!! Thanks for the info, they are really great!

[@robinhannevig]

Thank you 🙌 appreciate that!😊

[@skeet6189]

Action 4 looked better in everything but except low light. Theres something that looks weird about the ace pro. Seems a little over sharpened.

[@eduardoaryanna]

I got the pocket 3 for low light 1 inch sensor I liked the HDR but if it's not in 4k I'm going to get the action 4 DJi all the way since I got the mini 4 Pro also

[@ghostedragon964]

Does the freeframe 4k30fps support hdr?

[@robinhannevig]

No

[@Interlincinternatural]

Nice video ,hard to choose Insta 360 Ase Pro?

[@NegyedMisi]

I think the Insta360 AcePro is better. It's on my list for spring. I also love the Garmin integration.

[@travel4food4life]

I have been using ace pro for almost 4 months, for my vlog-ventures haha! and it remains my top pick. Non removable lens does a favor to me because I don't want my lens to be foggy...

[@bradl2636]

Which has best internal audio?

[@KennyL1980]

I just dont get all these youtube comparison videos on the Ace Pro vs. Action 4 or even the Hero 12. Yes, the Ace Pro wins in low light, but under normal lighting conditions, it looks relatively worse than the other 2 action cams, and it's not even close.

[@robinhannevig]

Different cams, different tastes

[@DaveSimkus]

The HDR on Ace Pro does make a huge difference. No more blown out highlights.

[@HelloThere-lo3qi]

dont the ace pro has 8k recording capability?

[@abdulrehmanakram.3030]

I feel amazed that you might be the first person recording this video in real 8K resolution at 4320P. Which camera are you using for this video? I am from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and I am planning to buy the Insta Ace Pro. I will use this action cam for my daily purposes and as my dash cam as well.

[@retroonhisbikes]

Will the ace pro get a 10bit update?

[@Superbin1000]

Hola.cual es la diferencia con este nuevo gp log? Gracias

[@MiyagisRant]

Sorry, this is a no brainer, low light motion, A4 fails not to mention details. The DJI is a great camera but for my shooting style which is a lot of low light, I have to go with the Ace but that's me. Also, I've watched a lot of videos between the Ace and DJI and consistently the sky looks much better in the Ace maybe it's me, there's more detail and better dynamic range in the sky where the DJI always looks 'blurred' out. you can see this in your video as well 4:05, 4:40, 14:42.

[@paulchin4094]

This is correct. Enjoy your Ace Pro! :)

[@timmark4190]

Turn off the stabilization. And if you use a gimbal, the quality will be same. Or in stills. If you do a lot of walking, then yes Ace Pro is good.

[@MiyagisRant]

@@timmark4190 That's great but then you will need to adjust settings and oh wait, buy a $150 Gimbal. Now, from your reply let's reverse the scenario, if I said to you I could do the same with the Ace Pro by your argument, I'm pretty sure you would laugh and say "LOL, now you need a gimbal to do what just comes out of the camera.. " right? And to that point, I disagree, the problem with DJI is just not with the stabilization, it's the processing required to do that stabilization in low light especially dark areas. This is why that 5nm cpu and the Bayer quad sensor comes to play. Hey don't believe, take the DJI A4, throw it on a gimbal do the same test, I will bet you it still wont' look as good as the Ace Pro without a 3rd party assistance, and that's the point here and you don't have to go buy and carry a gimbal which btw for action cameras are hard to find, there's only 2 that I know of that exist, I have one of them. ;)

[@ArinDevani]

@@MiyagisRanthow about focus on 30 cm distance vlog?

[@MiyagisRant]

@@ArinDevani If you're looking for a VLOG action camera, the Ace Pro is not my first pick but I don't use mine to vlog. It will depend on your usage, everyone uses theirs differently. Everything else, I prefer the Ace Pro but that's my opinion. I have both the Ace Pro and DJI A4 and love them both, they both have their own strengths as well as weaknesses. p.s The Ace Pro has the longest minimum focus range unfortunately, I would say about 60 cm.

[@MarufAlom]

problem with Ace pro is most of the reviews are paid/sponsored so it means this things is so bad that they can’t have the courage to hear the honest reviews from people

[@DaveSimkus]

But it's also the same problem with the Action 4.

[@Itellthetruth58]

came here from another video, i like the color of the ace pro better, the clarity zoom is also crazy!

[@gabriel221050]

Thanks for your professional review, which camera can take Video/Photo simultaneously like ex-GoPro 6

[@va2xgm]

For me, it would be the Ace Pro for the Pause & the Remote with the viewer.

[@jostein661]

Like video👍 Do you know if Insta 360 work with Dji Mic by Bluetooth.

[@robinhannevig]

No, only DJI Mic 2 I assume

[@SW-Video]

I like the Ace Pro for the features. It seems to be a compact version of some of the larger more traditional size cameras like the Sony A series. The Action 4 seems to be the more user friendly less feature rich but still quite adequate camera that can be used to capture more rigorous adventure footage such as dirt and mountain biking. It doesn't hurt that the Action 4 is on sale until the end of January 2024 for just $299.

[@tommystravels64]

The Ace Pro does have a removable front lens. Much the same as the GoPro ( 1/4 turn twist off) And it also pairs up very nicely with my DJI Mic 2. 🤘

[@frazermountford]

I seem think the Ace Pro Images look warmer maybe brighter

[@WiljanWiljan]

Thank you. Does the X3 microphone adapter fit and work with the Ace pro as well? Can you try please.....

[@robinhannevig]

It doesn’t work

[@make.it.better634]

Action 4 ❌ AcePro ✅ colors: Action 4 not that good as much as AcePro. Photos: Action 4 is ok but AcePro is much better and usable. Low light video : Action 4 look likes too much yellow in a crazy way and noisy... AcePro more natural and clear. MegaPixel: Action 4 is 10 megapixel AcePro has 48 megapixel And for me it makes a very big difference in photos. Others things: Flipscreen 🙏 Gestures 👍 Fast connection to the app on the phone 👍 All of them i got with AcePro

[@El-ahrairah-lc3tg]

Love most of insta360 offerings but I feel the ace pro was a huge miss. Have to hand it to the action 4 in this head to head

[@impact0r]

What's exactly the miss?

[@El-ahrairah-lc3tg]

@@impact0r Hmmmm where to start. First announced with a non removable lens cover, they went back on that cause not the best choice in an action cam. Breakable flip screen on an action cam. Gimmicky AI that gets old after a couple tries, heard it was also going to be limited, not confirmed yet because they’re kinda vague on it. Bad colors, skin tone is red. 8 bit instead of 10 but that can be personal. I like the X3 and go 3 but the ace pro wasn’t it

[@impact0r]

@@El-ahrairah-lc3tg Yeah, I watched many reviews by now, and they can be divided into two groups: those where Ace Pro crushes all else in most aspects (especially Dynamic Range and Low Light), and those where it does far worse than DJI Action 4 (including DR and Low Light). The whole thing smells pretty bad and it seems it is true Insta360 paid some major youtubers for fake comparison reviews.

[@lionheart7611]

Ace Pro wins
