Man honestly this channel is everything i've ever looked for. The content, the editing, you, just perfect.

[@JayJankulovski]

This means the absolute world to me. Thank you.

Personally, the GoPro seems to have a more cinematic look, and the Ace Pro would be a better choice for a wide variety of motovlogs. I think the GoPro looks cleaner, and the Hyperview is a very nice feature for motorcycle riding. At night, the Ace Pro stands out for visibility, but it doesn't have that refined, clean GoPro look.

[@TheForeigner68]

Regardless of what people might say about GoPro not innovating, it has 12 generations of evolution behind it. It's more refined as opposed to only having shiny new gimmicky stuff.

[@JayJankulovski]

Yes absolutely, Ace Pro’s ease of use to get a useable shot at all times throughout the night no matter the lighting situation is crazy. But on the other hand if you want actual smooth, cinematic footage the GoPro is more refined looking with its 12 generations of this model. With some firmware updates I think the Ace Pro will quickly make up for this stuff and the second gen of the Ace Pro will be insane.

[@kickedoutonthestreets]

Would love to see the raw file performance. Will a bigger sensor on the Ace Pro produce a better cinematic look because of higher dynamic range?

[@kickedoutonthestreets]

Oh if you export the video in 24 fps you can set 1/48 shutter speed which takes more light in. Might help at night.

[@mendingmotos]

I'm in the process of trying to get a camera set up for my upcoming riding videos to add to my bike build videos and these have been so awesome and helpful thanks, man!

[@anggiehutagalung8799]

Definitely subs your channel, the editing, and explanation both are so clear.

[@camerakaravan]

Really loved your video brotha, keep up the great work! Respect 🫡

[@_MrJolly_]

Ace Pro Pure Video seems like the best for anyone looking to just start, less to worry about but still very good quality. But fr made the choice harder watching this. I have the Hero 10 and I want to upgrade... The video results tell me I need both. Ace for night, GoPro for day...

[@JayJankulovski]

This is true, hoping they bring back manual settings in Pure video mode. That would be perfect. But yes it’s a tricky one for that reason, the GoPro clearly has 12 generations behind the image quality and vibe of the shots but the Ace Pro being it’s first generation is crazy and I think some firmware updates with improve it alot over time.

[@nulla9601]

13:10 The black levels on the GoPro are clearly much better, especially when looking at the gloves for example. For night riding the Insta360 is the clear winner but the vast majority of my riding is in the daytime so for me the GoPro wins. Would love to see a similar split-screen comparison with the DJI action 4 if you get your hands on one.

[@Driftuner]

I have an ace pro aswell and i believe they removed the manual settings on pure video because they at the same time expanded the manual setting on normal video with a low light stabilization mode, which was prior only available on pure video mode. That to me translates to "pure video is a night-time-only set it it and forget it" kinda mode, and the normal video mode became your do-it-all manual mode for everything manual related, since you can now switch on the low light mode while remaining on normal video mode. Hope that makes sense 😅

[@ArjunHosamani001]

The quality of videos , editing , everything just WOW 🤌❤

[@babyboy1971]

Thank God! Finally, somebody who understands how to properly set the GoPro up does a comparison video with the Ace Pro. I have the GoPro 12 and I absolutely love it, it’s my first GoPro. I am interested in getting the Ace pro for some comparisons, but every video I’ve seen comparing these two cameras just sticks the GoPro into fully auto settings, not understanding how to set it up for good low light or night mode. Bravo! PS: In the day, what’s ND16? Is that a neutral density filter?

[@YammiePro]

Nice, I’ve been using the 12 with max lens mod and really like it,going to try turning off stabilization,never thought of that! Great work man!

[@JayJankulovski]

Good stuff man! Yeah give it a try and let me know what you think! 🔥

[@퓨어모토]

I also like motion blur, but how to set it as an ace was helpful. 👍

[@alex.andreyev]

Dude, great content! I switched to Insta360 Ace Pro recently; I loved it the first time I used it. Let's see how it performs in the long run!

[@ybg4767]

Bro am also looking for an action camera rn.. mind updating on how’s the camera going?

[@SolelyElectric]

1:36 very nice sounding bike 😍

[@AkshayTodankar]

Wow great one 👍🏼

[@AliiaZBeatz]

This is probably the best and most unbiased comparison review on youtube. Insta360 does a good job on sponsoring nowadays 👍🏽 Could you tell us something ablut the workflow with the ace pro ? Is it still only working with insta360 Studio ?

[@JayJankulovski]

Thank you so much, that really means a lot! It’s the same as any other action camera or camera in general. Just take the SD card out and import your footage then use it in any editing software raw. It’s not like the X3 360 footage that you have to reframe. It’s like normal gopro footage :)

[@FL0Kl]

Its the first video in which the Ace Pro really impress me with the night mode. If the hypothetical One X4 come with this feature, it would be a instant buy for me.

[@JayJankulovski]

That would be insane!

[@JoeL-td9bx]

Really nice comparison vid. Lets go ace pro! Thank you too Jay

[@noburuhasake]

Thanks for the side by side comparison and the effort u put into this! No doubt the Ace Pro preforms better in low light I mean u can actually see things. But honestly I prefer the color reproduction on the GoPro, I like the road looking dark instead of being touched up through the Pure Video mode. 7:59 for instance the GoPro just looks way nicer to me. Interestingly when u turn of the Pure Video mode off the AcePro seems to be slightly darker 10:13 or 12:02. And then when we move ahead to the day light performance the GoPro just looks better and cripier, to me at least. GoPro footage doesn't seem as flat as the AcePro footage. If Insta 360 can improve their image quality to make it u know to give it that hmph, it's gonna be a killer camera. Depending on the kind of footage u wan't u can opt to turn Pure Video on or off at night and have best of both worlds.

[@eggarowls6167]

Pure video is meant for low light performance specifically... if you want it to look like the gopro at night just shoot in regular video. But i agree without ND filters on the acepro the gopro looks smoother during the day.

[@chatdeau_]

Actually hyperview used the whole 8:7 sensor instead of the 4:3 in super view , personally the GoPro looks so much better in day light but in night the ace is better , unfortunately I don’t know a lot of people that will film at night

[@Dhenpram]

Bro can you make a video setting gopro hero 10 for motovlogging without nd filters please

[@samueledionisi8853]

Hi, I recently discovered your channel, I recently bought the insta360 ace pro and I would like to start doing some motovlogging, thanks to all the functions, are those lenses really necessary for the lens? Because they really cost a lot and after doing some tests even against the light it didn't seem like the camera would perform badly without lenses... However, as regards the microphone, in my country the price difference between the 3 recommended by you in your Ace Pro package is practically nothing, which one should I take? If it's the Rode, does it need the anti-wind device or is it fine as is? if so where do I get it? Thank you very much and sorry for the very long message, have a nice day :)

[@ColinHikesIt]

first time watching your video. nice one! your bike completely took my attention away. for the cameras, I don't really like the distortion of hyperview... Ace Pro looks way more versatile especially with that click mounting. thanks for the settings too!

[@curtisnelson6667]

Dji Osmo Action 4 is the winner. Best mounting system, controllable gain adjustment, same 1/1.3 sensor as the Ace pro, 15 min quick charging, The front screen is touch screen, the menu system is also faster to boot and shut down than gopro, you can directly download to your phone unlike the gopro app you have to download to their app first then download agian. What Ever You Do Dont Go With Gopro Nothing But Nightmares With Thier Trash Software

[@EricLouisYoung]

Definitely true

[@boodi1170]

Jay, DaVinci resolve has a motion blur feature. Turn it on the colour page when filming during the evening

[@JayJankulovski]

Yes I know :) it’s not as natural looking as real motion blur though. But it’s usable sometimes for sure🔥

[@Amedion]

The quality doesn't matter if it cannot capture. GoPro gave me lots of problem such as memory corrupt, overheating, low battery, etc. Glad I have Ace Pro now.

[@slakk5093]

Yeah this is what I hear all the time from GoPro owners

[@skandar6094]

Thank you for the video! Honestly before watching the video i was sure i wanted the ace pro but now I'm doubting. Video from the ace pro look over exposing, not natural at all. Video from go pro could be laking some light but in my opinion they look way more cinematic and natural.. Hopefully the second part were you set the camera in manual is way better according to what i like. Can't wait a test vs a dji action 4

[@JayJankulovski]

Yeah this is true, if ace pro didn’t take away manual mode in pure video mode it would be unbeatable. Manual mode in normal mode at night though looks basically same to GoPro

[@bueczkaa9152]

Greetings from Poland, You have very polish sounding surrname

I love gopro for hyoerview

[@LuwiMartin]

Man.. I like the view of GoPro and colors but the lowlight sensor capability of the Ace Pro is something to beat

[@KapitanMeyour]

You do some real magic with the Ace Pro tbh. Can you share your sharpness and color profile setting on Ace Pro from Normal Video mode that you use in this video? Mine can't look like this somehow.

[@ItsSneakyBeaky]

I'm thinking the answer is the one that doesn't randomly stop recording and lose all the footage, so not the GoPro

[@OneManTrail]

Exactly.

[@charltheron2769]

Indeed. Done with the sub-par GoPro hardware. Or I was just unlucky in getting 3 different GoPro Hero versions as lemons over the years. The random stop-filming (a hardware / software bug, who the F@ck really knows; it appears over various Hero versions for me, but they're more interested in rather releasing a new GoPro Hero #50 in Pink colours) just ruins your day.

[@dorjetamang8822]

need dji action 4 vs gopro

[@delrayguy399]

Great if you wanna film at night, get the ace pro, but the majority of people using an action camera using it during the day

[@CanadianDupa]

I wonder what the comparison would be like in the day. And I’m really curious about the differences between the ace and the ace pro.

[@JayJankulovski]

I did some day time testing at the end :)

[@RideWithManDeep]

Have you ever tested osmo action 4 for moto vlogging? I really wanna know what your opinions are on that one ✊🏽

[@user-fp3fx7is3u]

On driveway mode when we pause the shots..can we see the plate number of other vehicles? Just scared maybe one day we might need them for accidents purposes

[@SurgePow]

In my opinion, the GoPro has a more "natural" cinematic view. Although some shots are completely dark on the GoPro, I feel like that gives the more "realistic" view. Ace Pro does excel in showing greater depth in perception in low light, but it feels too saturated with light that makes "Night Riding" look muted or bland. Question though, were all these footages captured RAW/Log?

[@antssta]

Dam man, the Insta ace pro can see better then me at night 😅

[@YoyoEnglish-oq9we]

You have supreme confidence in chinmount lol. Aint no way im putting all that on my chin. I found a solution to the pocket 3 vibration issues being mounted on the bike.

[@JayJankulovski]

🤣 I haven’t had any problems with it… ooohh I’d love to hear it

[@YoyoEnglish-oq9we]

I was watching the last video and you had pointed out finding possible solutions to get rid of the vibration of the pocket 3 so it doesn't eventually damage the sensor when your riding. Sorry maybe I watched someone else.@@JayJankulovski

[@Symilate]

what's the solution bro

[@JayJankulovski]

@@YoyoEnglish-oq9we So you didn't find a solution you're still waiting for part 2?

[@charltheron2769]

Somewhat helpful, thanks. Though I ride at day, not at night, so of limited use this comparison, BUT for your daylight portion /comparison of your video. I venture most ride through the day anyway, yes? Done with the sub-par GoPro camera hardware. Or I was just unlucky in getting 3 different GoPro Hero versions as lemons over the years. The random stop-filming, a hardware / software bug, who the F@ck really knows; it appears over various Hero versions for me, but they're more interested in rather releasing a new GoPro Hero #50 in Pink colours, then fixing this reporting issue, also from various vloggers over the years, just ..... ruins your riding day too many times for me. Reminds me of my SENA helmet Bluetooth communication devices I had; It wasn't even remotely water-resistant over 3 different models. 2 conked out due to LIGHT rain. One of them works now intermittently. Tossed it in a dark cabinet corner. Forever. The third, who knows. Just refused to work suddenly a few month outside warranty. Dead as a Dodo. I switched over to CARDO EDGE about 2 years ago -- had one of the first EDGE units coming into the African continent, according to the local Rep/Importer, hot out of the baking ovens of CARDO -- and had none of the hardware & voice issues of the previous SENA's. Works a peach over dusty African plains and rains since. Just works ! Will now never go back to SENA again. CARDO (their topline EDGE product anyway) is just superior engineering. Plain and simple. (Been riding -- and trying -- bike gadgets for more than 32 years) So yeah, there is the RELIABLITY issue over time..... GoPro HERO's, in my experiences over the years, frustratingly failed for me on this issue.

[@nelomaningas7669]

man the gp12 looks like it has an nd filter on at night

Is that only me that prefers go pro at night time instead of this low light mode on ace pro?

[@jacobleblanc6071]

Same. Ace pro is obv a lot brighter, but I honestly think it's too much, kinda looks fake/artifical. 100% prefer the Gopro look, even if it means not seeing anything when it's pitch black xd

Manual at night the GP is easier to watch. Never thought I would prefer a GP night shot 😅 But with Pure video the Ace pro is so much brighter

[@JayJankulovski]

Yeah, especially with my manual settings… hoping they bring back manual settings in pure video mode on the ace pro 😭🙏

[@raaah]

3/4 of the video was shot at night and maybe 10% was shot during the day The reason being is that the 360 does better at night so you highlighted that throughout the video but the GoPro hero 12 is better in the daytime but we couldn't tell because you only gave us 4 minutes of that video

[@JayJankulovski]

The point was to show the difference mainly in night time, I originally wasn’t going to do day time but I did. I stated clearly in the video that the GoPro does have better quality when it’s fed a good amount of light (day time). Ace Pro is better in every other way including functionality, interface, reliability etc. GoPro has years of producing the best image quality but has done nothing to the actual camera it self :)

[@imitzi]

I was originally going to get the Ace Pro as I didn’t have any camera, but ended up getting the Action4. Action4 vs Ace Pro when? 😊

[@JayJankulovski]

Nice man! I would love to do this comparison. Just need to get my hands on one🔥

[@imitzi]

I’ve noticed a slight issue with DLog on the action 4. Seems like it bumps the iso up a tad higher than it usually would, causing some of the shots to be over exposed. Nothing an ND32 can’t fix 😅got it looking buttery smooth, I look forward to your comparison video 🎉

[@redhenracing2]

"they probably look about the same" (right side can count blades of grass, left side, the camera I use every day and thought was pretty good, is an actual potato)

[@TheForeigner68]

I think Ace Pro's night footage is actually too bright at times making it un-natural. Much like the day time footage. If auto settings are your thing and you shoot a lot at night, it clearly beats GoPro out of the water. Otherwise, GoPro wins, more natural colours, realistic lighting and wait until you start playing with the GoPro labs firmware 😍

[@JayJankulovski]

Yep I agree with this. If Ace Pro didn’t take away manual settings in the firmware update in Pure Video in your able to set the max iso so it doesn’t get too bright. It’s perfect. So I’m hoping they can bring that back. (I had some sample footage throughout the video of what this setting used to look like, not sure if you saw it) 🤝
