[@insta360]

Using the Action Pod exactly as intended, you're making us wish we were out there too 🙌

[@jt_mtb1]

This is amazing im getting one too

[@SethKendallD]

Oh my! I use my Go 2 for work and play all the time. Going to need to add this into my collection.

[@fanmanabc]

Great innovation! I’ll be picking up one.

[@KiwiInGermanyMTB]

Black option would be good

[@manila_thrilla]

I ordered one on launch day, can't wait to receive it!

[@Charliezfabrykiczekolady]

cool, small camera, but video quality is a bit to low.

[@huntstyle]

That's how I feel. It's good for some unique angles, but not as the main POV cam. GoPro's quality is significantly better.

[@matthewharrison7458]

The stabilization inside such a small device is insane, I remember when Seths bike hacks would wear a full-blown harness to get this level!!

[@kenbest76]

Love my Go2. I use it waaaay more than my regular action cam. Although not ideal for a dedicated video camera, it's great for social media stuff. I always get people asking questions about it. Kinda surprised how many people aren't aware this camera exists.

[@uskypg]

While Insta 360 and DJI have some great ideas with the action cams they fall behind on the most important thing :video quality! For that the GoPro is still king 😢 if they could match the go pro video quality that would be game over for go pro. Until then...

[@joeljohnson9583]

The go 2 is amazing for a quick shot when you don't want to have a camera rig. Just clip to the visor and your videoing. I live the fact that you can fix your angle in post if you are slightly low or high. Longer battery and better resolution just make this so much better

[@lachevre_mtb]

Would like to see a more chunky trail to see the stabilisation of the camera. I broke my Gopro9 2 days ago and will buy something new soon. Will you talk about this in a future video ?

[@letsgoridebikes]

The shots on the end of the massive selfie stick were awesome. Similar feel to a drone without the hassle!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Totally agree! Thanks man. We should use that setup the next time we film those slabs :D

[@letsgoridebikes]

Definitely, that would be the perfect place!

[@wiscadams]

Love the Nordic Centre trails. I'd recognize Odyssey anywhere.

[@TheLoamRanger]

A classic!

[@drifterdogs]

pretty cool form factor... but that potato video quality makes it a bit hard to watch...

[@zobilamouche420]

Imagine having multiple of thoses cameras side by side and being able to combine the multiple shots to have an ultra ultra wide angle through some software magic, while still being under the weight of GoPro

[@IAMVJBLAZE]

IF they were thinner put 'em back to back like the X3 or X4 and have proper 360. Otherwise might be a bit too thick. Wonder if anyone could do it though....

[@leightonstarks2328]

BETH freaking launching those jumps! I freggin JUST got my gopro hero11...

[@kayo1265]

What was that mount and small stick at @4:38 ? Where can I purchase ?

[@andrew_gardner]

Love my Go2, my favorite riding angle is chin mounted on full face helmet for BMX races. Have even been able to pan in the edit to catch a close call where I almost clipped another racers rear wheel. The weight is also nice for the hat mount on the visor like you showed, you don't even notice it's weight.

[@pwn3d_d1rt]

I love my DJI Osmo action 3 for picture and stabilization quality but the size of this camera would be a huge advantage because I love my chin mount angles... Maybe not as good video quality but still solid AF. PS. Good to see you guys out at Moose on RoS .... Save Moose mountain and West Bragg!!!

[@THESEGMENTPR]

Wow!!!! What a cool camera. Thank you for putting this video together for us. Love ALL the practical options this light weight camera and display can do for us.

[@TheLoamRanger]

Thanks for watching!

[@rathermtb]

@@TheLoamRangerhey can you please make a how to manual video please ive been struggling for so long

[@canadianpineapple9745]

Sick! But what's the battery life like on that? I take it you can only charge a battery in there and not change it?

[@VeloNippon]

Not many reviewers mention the non-removable battery life. 45 mins seems fairly low considering after a few months worth of charging the figure will be much lower especially in cold conditions. Socks not to be able to replace the battery go buy new Go 3!

[@michaeljacobs9613]

So great! Opens up a whole creative avenue and a variety of shots! And everybody loves bike shots.......

[@mattypthag]

What mount is best to use for the camera out of the action pod, on top of a trail helmet?

[@ryangregohara]

How is the stabilization and quality to the latest go pro? Battery life?

[@CodyHoward]

I would love to see a go 3 vs. x3 showdown for someone looking to buy just one.

[@richardalvarez2084]

can you live stream on social media with it?

[@davefink2326]

This is an excellent configuration idea 5:25! I do a clunky version of this with DJI pocket2 and a smartphone but I’m always worried about breaking it - or running out of batteries!

[@DimitriosKanellopoulos]

Video looks very fish eye to be honest. Didn't like the footage compared to go pro

[@saiyan_princestudios9790]

The magnet, small size and the flip screen really are huge game changers

[@usa__md9271]

Do I need to take the entire camera on a ride to take videos? Do they need to be in range of one another? I was hoping to only take the tiny part with me and leave the larger housing in the car.

[@Kirchenschlager]

The visor clip: what can you tell me about it? Is it strong? You trust it on your helmet to not go flying off?

[@rokrun]

Is that shot at the nordic center?

[@TheLoamRanger]

Most of it, yes! Not the big drop features though.

[@rokrun]

@@TheLoamRanger great area to ride. I had so much fun there. Rented the rocky mountain mtb. Was so nice to hit those trails

[@odinata]

What was that small selfie stick on your helmet and bike?

[@Hscrimshaw]

Awesome video guy!

[@jansturestig]

Seems like a really good option for POV-MTB-filming. But why wouldn't you use it instead of the Gopro you normally use?

[@mk1classic]

Is it just me or is the image quality lacking big time on the trail riding in the forrest? Grainy and pixelated when going in and out of the darker sections.

[@TheLoamRanger]

The pixelation is just from KZbin compression. That doesn't exist on my computer monitor.

[@hambo76]

@@TheLoamRanger Did you mess up the KZbin upload settings or is that how it will always be?

[@oskarstaudte]

Looks like a sick camera

[@DirtRoadRemedy]

you too? Damn, I just bought a One RS and really not sure if i need another camera, but the Insta360 FOMO is real, lol! Forgot to mention, I just rode EKG yesterday and felt like I was in The Loam Ranger's playground.

[@nomadic_dad]

Looks impressive

[@B1KER]

I’ve been thinking of a camera like this for awhile. So cool someone actually did it!

[@jamiehamilton3253]

Late to comment on this great vid and also late to comment on your "POG" helmet 😆Braaaappp!

[@vinoygeorge7983]

How about the microphone? How to capture Audio if I just place the cam on my motorcycle helmet. How to connect an external microphone?

[@Sir-Kay]

Ok but, not there yet, the image quality is lacking. But for IG and other sociamedia it's ok.

[@aldincorpuz5670]

Thank you for this review, amazing! where did you get the mount right in front of your helmet? looking forward for your answer thanks!

[@dronescoVKE]

Great video but talking about not ever having been able to use a cam that light on a helmet kind of forgets that the predecessor was even lighter with almost same specs (leaving aside battery life).

[@iDealMedley]

What they use to rig for the wheel shot?

[@erinb4919]

that's pretty cool. i have the normal insta360, which I love for skiing... But I find the weight of it limiting for MTB and lots of trail chatter- you notice the weight. Would like to try this thing

[@dkcoffee2480]

Hi Loam Ranger! This video is So crispy sound. Did you put on compression sound process from Rode wireless footage?

[@kevinkellogg4840]

Do you prefer the X3 or the Go3?

[@skaboa]

what is the selfie stick you use?

[@MarCheChan]

Did you try the pendant on a downhill? My friend lost the last version...😅

[@joeljohnson9583]

What do you do for wind reduction

[@kevincampos6394]

That’s cool what did you use to clamp the pod to the selfie stick

[@xPRxMEx]

Someone tell us what glasses Beth is wearing 😭 🔥🔥🔥😎

[@CMTB]

This looks very interesting! My only concern is if I should buy the 64gb or the 128gb version, if I will still be using the GoPro as the primary camera. But thanks for the video! Are you gonna make more videos, with more content from this camera?

[@amgoatee3700]

How long is the battery working, how long to charge it, and does the battery get hot fast?

[@btk5256]

Do you need the pod close by to use voice activation? Cause they would be a bummer if you had to somehow carry the action pod with you lol

[@Kirchenschlager]

Does the go3 come with the visor mount? Cant find it in the site description

[@markr041]

Hat (brim) mount - a clip with holder for the camera - is included.

[@WatertownFilms]

Are you gonna review the Osmo Action 4?

[@ExploringtheWorld]

Great video! Thanks a lot for sharing!!

[@IanMartinezF]

What glasses are those? The Red ones

[@droopyfoo]

Whats ur shades

[@XploreAz]

Is this camera prone to overheating like GoPro's?

[@joaovitorsabadin5039]

Is this camera a better option than a gopro hero 12?

[@TheLoamRanger]

If you need a camera with a modular, much smaller form factor than yes.

[@aBlackFlash]

Link to long pole please

[@Bonanno13]

How secure is that magnet and is there a spot for a tether? I am on the fence to order one but really don't want to loose it.

[@TheLoamRanger]

The magnet is quite strong. For example, the magnetized visor clip isn't supposed to be used for scenarios like mountain biking, but I've found the magnetic connection between the camera and the clip to be more than strong enough for rough trails. I don't see a place for a tether though.

[@Adams_Excursions]

What was the boom arm you guys used for the helmet and frame shot?

[@TheLoamRanger]

It's the carbon mount from this kit: store.insta360.com/product/new_unicorn_helmet_mount?c=1567&from=nav

[@JasonFoxLCB]

Is it wrong that when you said, "So Beth and I are going to go up into the hills..." I instantly filled in "...and find some hitchhikers to terrorize"? Probably. Anyway. That camera looks sick. You've also been around long enough to know that so many of the setups you can do with it were either difficult, expensive, or impossible to pull off with any level of quality not too terribly long ago. The detachable cam/screen system is brilliant. Assume it's also good for color grading?

[@BCmtb]

These “reviews” are always so biased. Doesn’t look very good even in ideal lighting conditions

[@TheLoamRanger]

This isn't a review. We're sponsored by Insta360, so an impartial review is technically impossible. We just went out and tried to use the camera in some interesting ways, then showed you the results.

[@BCmtb]

@@TheLoamRanger good to know. Would have loved to hear some of the downsides as apposed to all positive. This would help people decide if they actually should buy it

[@MRhankylolka]

like but quality ist trashy for 500 bucks. the next analog is runcam thumb pro wide for 100 bucks and 4k30

impressive

[@bikebudha01]

how long can you film? 10 minutes? 20 minutes? An hour?

[@TheLoamRanger]

With the 64gig internal memory option, it's showing me I can record roughly 2.5 hours in 2.7K mode.

[@bikebudha01]

@@TheLoamRanger That's actually really good. I'm the kind of rider that just want to hit record at the start, then ride for 2+ hours. As my main focus is having a good ride, not stopping and filming...

battery life when it's just the small cam detached?

[@user-dm8zn5qp3s]

Was saving up to buy the new GoPro Hero 11, but I think I have other plans now.

For a moment I thought that guy from GoPro is reviewing Insta360 go 3.

[@philwebb606]

Being small doesn’t make much of a difference if your still having to wear the chest mount

[@TheLoamRanger]

but if you can take the camera off of your chest and pop it on your helmet to get a different angle...without even noticing the weight of it... makes a huge difference. Especially now with the 4K version that just came out.

[@butchgreene]

And now all cameras other than contracted GoPros are banned from use in World Cup DH

[@Montytobin]

its worth my money, but i dont have any

[@RandysRides]

I hope this episode long commercial fad doesn't catch on. Expecting content...but get an infomercial instead. Gonna have to start culling my feed.

[@marcelknop1]

Agree. I am an advert hater at the best of times, it's just psychological with me, hate marketers, hate force feeding etc. Took a quick look at this vid by scrolling ahead over the content and abandoned it quickly. Sorry Loam Ranger, usually like your content but this infomercial sucks. Where is your disclosure whether this is paid content or sponsored content or not? Without that it's difficult to determine how objective your review is in the first place.

[@turnikimore]

C’mon people, there’s NO improvement on the video quality compared to Go2. Freeframe is the only interesting mode and it’s exactly the same 1440p as the pro mode on Go2. All your impossible shots are easily achievable with a 2 year old Go2 with the same quality, the screen is a gimmick. Sad..:(((

[@TheLoamRanger]

So you have both of them and compared them on your own monitor? If not, your comment is pure speculation. I've used both extensively now and can say that the GO 3 is more useful and puts out higher quality video, especially when utilizing the new image profiles.

[@OneBadAssDJ]

Waiting for all the GoPro fanboys to bash this camera.

[@FlowFinderUSA]

how do you attach the magnetic mount to your chesty?

[@FlowFinderUSA]

do you know how this camera performs in 'cold'?

Not sure. It's been cookin around here for the last couple of weeks!
