Wow! Sounds to me like there's a micro image processing pipeline in the Ace Pro 2. Having the chips work in tandem will make editing and exporting so fast. Let’s goooo!
I really love the flexibility that a flip screen provides. Instead of having to just eyeball or wing a shot I can actually see it in real time. A huge upgrade in my eyes!
The wind guard is a great idea. Now we can use the built-in audio directly, no need for cold shoes, dead cats, or mic adapters anymore! Yay for not carrying around extra accessories.
You are so underrated bro. I started watching you when I purchased my Avata 2 and have even went back and watched previous videos before your Avata 2 video. Great video as always. I am surprised you are under 500k subs. You should be well over a million. I will be here when you hit that milestone.
Adding the wind guard was a great idea on Insta360’s part. Now I can use the built-in audio directly without needing a cold shoe and mic adapters anymore. And without sacrificing the audio quality either.
Thanks for the video, your family look amazing and its great to see how a most, if not all people, will use this particular camera as a robust waterproof holiday 'video' camera, but they couldn't market it as that - far too 90's. It produces amazing footage and has some great features, but a true 'action' camera to me is something that you can crash on your bike using or attach to a go-kart and bounce all over a farmers field with or scramble up a mountain or jump out of a plane with or fall on your arse in the snow and nothing will flap open and snap off. And now it has that 'Must be taken off in wet weather or under water wind muff' as something else that you will lose, either that one or the non-sponged filled version... 🙏
Great video and great new camera. Wider angle and low light still killing it. Have to bring it out to keystone in Colorado this season and we can do some side by sides as I show ya around the mountain.
Great video, as always . I'm glad I didn't wait for it. I got the DJI Action5 pro and now I'm even more convinced I made the correct choice for what I do. None the less a great camera as well. Cheers 🍻
Such amazing footage from Maui Looks like fun Thank you for sharing an excellent detailed review Considering this new camera Indeed need something easy with not a lot of color grading
Loved your video and Subscribed as well! What a great time to be an action camera enthusiast! I'm a happy dji osmo action 5 pro camera owner and will soon be a happy insta360 ace pro2 owner as well! Thanks again!
Babe, wake up. David Manning just posted. Love you dude. But also hate you for making me want to spend money again. AP2 was definitely worth the wait. 😂
Footage is gorgeous. I have the go 3s and am always impressed with the footage out of camera. However the DJI Action 5 wins for me because of the mic connection with DJI mic 2.
10-bit can help you preserve more detail than 8-bit. To be honest, in my experience the difference isn't that noticeable unless you’re REALLY looking closely.
10 bit vs 8 bit isn’t about detail. It’s about color only. 10 bit color vs 8 bit color. Honestly most people won’t see any difference at all. 10 bit really matters in situations like a deep blue gradient sky. Sometimes you might see banding in the sky as the blue color gradually changes closer to the horizon. 8 bit is more prone to issues like that, however I haven’t seen any banding at all with the AP2
4:56 that reason for the flip screen again. come on, it is an action camera with wide angle lens just point in the direction and it will be in frame. that's the whole idea of action camera.
I was at that exact same place as you just a few weeks after you, Charly Young beach, northern part. Swam with turtles at the rocks you see in the background. Great place
Def looking forward to the comparison with the DJI Action 5... I think the Ace Pro 2 is better tech but how well it looks like on my face will be a huge consideration. I'm 50 and I have freckles and depending on the lighting I can look anywhere from 38 - 58 and that's not a beauty mode thing. It's a contrast, hdr and sharpening thing...in the same lighting.
David this thing looks nuts man. Crazy how AI is taking over my life right now. I just got the new Google Pixel which is heeeeaaavy on AI (and its awesome) now I just need this camera to complete my skynet
I want an action for the same usage as you. For kids running around and family vlogs. Between the ace pro 2 and action 5, which provides ease of use(using the camera and file transfer), video(out of camera), audio(internal mic). Thanks
@@DavidManningvlog Using an action cam for back up 4k 60 footage of hour long volleyball games, 3 in a day. Some of these venues played in are terribly lit, but for the most part, pretty decent lighting just artificial. I honestly probably would never punch all the way in to 2X but with the Action 5 you lose quality very quickly the minute you digital zoom. For my use case, that is where all these cameras fall short. An iPhone is still the Goat for this sort of recording, which we use, but it’s nice to have a redundancy as well. That’s why battery life is important too. I can record 3 hour long matches in day now with the Action 5. I could power bank the Ace2 but nice if so don’t have to. Guess I’m going to have to just buy one and test it.
Wow! So cool and great decision taking it to a trip for testing 🤟 ok so question will be...how hard was the editing with the improvements? It does look good, but I guesd the main update is on the 2 chips
Trying to decide which of the new action cameras will replace my GoPro 10 for family travel and adventure vlogging. I’m leaning towards the GP13 because I’m more familiar with the tech, but I’m also looking forward to learning more about the Ace Pro 2 before making up my mind. I really appreciate your travel video since it’s in the same ballpark as what I’ll be filming.
For family travel and adventure, i would imagine indoor filming and nighttime filming is quite regular, action 5 pro and ace pro 2 would both be in another league in terms of low light capabilities. That said, you have to pick the camera base on your actual need.
David- is the minimum focusing distance improved? Last year there were some reviews saying it wasn’t god for a typical vlog setup, as things were always a little soft on the focus.
You can see colour banding from the 8 bit. I think yhe 10bit from dji osmo action 5 pro is better for videography. I would rather have 1 billion colour instead of 16 million.
Gahhh, this one is so tough! Normally, I would totally agree with you, but man with UA-cam’s compression algorithm, you’ll even see banding on my Sony A7Siii 10-Bit 4:2:2 footage. I think if you’re delivering via something other than social media, you’re right that you can see the difference, but UA-cam and Instagram compress footage so hard that it’s almost impossible to see the difference between 8-bit and 10-bit on here. I’ll get a comparison video up for you to check out soon👍
As stated (better word would be asked) in a previous video of yours Can I request that you do tests for: Low Light (Check) Underwater (Check, but would like a comparison between the 2 other cameras) Battery Overheating And Quality? Again, thanks for reading this if you have 😅😎
Ive had gopros and i got ace pro 1. Finally got dji action 5 pro. Even after all the ace pro 2 reviews im glad i went with DJI. Its pretty similar but smaller camera with Mic 2 working dirctly with it. Game changer to not have to have the battery door open to connect a mic. As like ace pro 1 i find ace pro 2 footage still does not look natural compared to the other cameras.
Let me hear your thoughts and questions! All footage in this video is directly out of camera and hasn’t been edited. Enjoy!👍
Amazing video! Keep cooking up FIRE content! :) Did we get 10-Bit Video with the Insta370 Ace Pro 2?

Wait..you managed to film and make it look easy while traveling with the whole family! I gave you a LIKE just for that! 😅😅😅😅
That low light is so darn clean
You make things sound 10x better than they are. ALL these companies should hire you as their spokesperson.
I really love the flexibility that a flip screen provides. Instead of having to just eyeball or wing a shot I can actually see it in real time. A huge upgrade in my eyes!
I enjoy all videos of David.
Thank you Jay🙌
Great review on this camera. Thanks for sharing your family and the fun adventures.
I appreciate you following along brother!!!
I came for the Maui content and stayed for the Ace Pro 2 stuff! What a great camera. Amazing footage. Especially loved the turtle shots 🤩
I don't care at all about this camera but I do enjoy David Manning videos!
You’re the real hero here👏 Thank you!!!
Why ?? Tell us the reason
Wait… why he’s the real hero or why he likes my videos?🤔
What a wonderful family, way to go mom and dad! 🤙
The wind guard is a great idea. Now we can use the built-in audio directly, no need for cold shoes, dead cats, or mic adapters anymore! Yay for not carrying around extra accessories.
just started watching your channel and wanted to say love your energy along with the fun concise reviews!

You're my go to for advice David, this camera looks like a winner winner chicken dinner!
Man, you have 3 kids? Respect. This version really look better than the first version. I'm interested. Cheers David!

I was waiting for David's video, finally you uploaded it!
Hahahaa got caught in UA-cam processing purgatory!
Stop making me want to buy more stuff!!! This camera is amazing. My wife is going to make me unsubscribe 😂
What we need to do is get your wife to start watching the channel! Then she’ll think it’s her idea to buy new camera gear!!!😂
@@DavidManningvlog man you’re playing Chess and I’m playing checkers. Love it! 🤣
lol 😂 we are on the same boat, my wife always keeps asking me why you collect all those cameras 🤣🤣
Great video, as always . I'm glad I didn't wait for it. I got the DJI Action5 pro and now I'm even more convinced I made the correct choice for what I do. None the less a great camera as well. Cheers 🍻
Great video and what a treat to see stunning Maui (You were filming on my fav. beach, the morning light there is amazing).
Just wow
Such amazing footage from Maui Looks like fun Thank you for sharing an excellent detailed review Considering this new camera Indeed need something easy with not a lot of color grading
Always the best!
I’m not buying one but your videos the first one I watch to check out what’s new!
Another banger! Looked like a fun trip. Good review!
Wow action cameras are getting really good now 👍
Ohhhh Wow thats a lot of weddings to pay for David😁
Love channel and now just waiting for the 3 way compare for this year!
Oh my gosh, your girls are adorable!
watching this while also beeing on an island on vacation
Ohhhh! Which island are you on?!
@@DavidManningvlog Wangerooge, Northern German Island. Really cool here
🐝 beeing ? 😅
Thanks David, if you guys are ever in Aruba let me know.
Ohhhh, would LOVE to visit Aruba!

Great Video!!!
Awesome video!!!;
Are those sample footages in HDR? Looks great and more natural than the first one
Footage is gorgeous. I have the go 3s and am always impressed with the footage out of camera. However the DJI Action 5 wins for me because of the mic connection with DJI mic 2.
Ace Pro 2 can also do the mic connection with the DJI Mic 2 and same with the new GoPro. The DJI though can do two mics at once, which is pretty dope!
@@DavidManningvlog no way! It connects to the mic 2? Okay that’s cool.

Very nice review. Well done.
Don’t be influenced by influencers to always buy the newest gear. Sometimes, it’s best to master using what you already have.
It’s funny how I just got the ace pro 😂 now I was going to get the x4 as well but I’ll just get this instead. Team insta360 🔥
4:56 that reason for the flip screen again. come on, it is an action camera with wide angle lens just point in the direction and it will be in frame. that's the whole idea of action camera.
The fact that you were using a DJI mic 2 tells me which one you like better wink wink.
I mean, the DJI Mic 2 hooks up to the Ace Pro 2, the Hero 13, and the Action 5, soooooo🤷♂️
@@DavidManningvlog what about the DJI Mic 1 ??
Great vacation! Thanks for the video. What about the weight and chunkyness of the camera? Is it "helmetable"?
I bought the ace pro not long after it came out, I feel like I’ve had it a week and the 2 is already out 😂
I was at that exact same place as you just a few weeks after you, Charly Young beach, northern part. Swam with turtles at the rocks you see in the background. Great place
Maui, is one of favorite Hawaiian islands. Looking forward to you comparing the DJI Action 5 and this new action camera.
dii action 5 pro, the best
Thanks for staying up super late to get the video out :-)
Who needs sleep?🤷♂️🤣
@@DavidManningvlog hahaha! I know that life all too well.
for the under water shots. Did you use a case and or filters?
any thoughts on ace pro 2 vs action 5 for family beach vacation? snorkel and everyday stuff not editing colour.any thoughts?
Is it just me, or does the footage all look like it has the Lightroom clarity filter cranked...
That’s probably more the UA-cam compression than the footage because all three cameras had their sharpness set to Low👍
Thanks for this!! Question, do you have to take the new foamy mic protector off before you get in the water?
How do you think the video stabilization compares to the GoPro?
Looks like you guys had a great time!
Comparison video not only with gopro and dji but also with the previous version, especially on low light pls
Great video as always, so when is the video coming out for the DJi action 5 pro and the insta360 ace pro 2?
Def looking forward to the comparison with the DJI Action 5... I think the Ace Pro 2 is better tech but how well it looks like on my face will be a huge consideration.

there's a major change from the old Ace Pro?
Cause I bought her not few months ago...
Can you do side by side?
Thanks!
David this thing looks nuts man. Crazy how AI is taking over my life right now. I just got the new Google Pixel which is heeeeaaavy on AI (and its awesome) now I just need this camera to complete my skynet
Imagine removable/replacement lens on their actual 360 cameras 😮
They have them now! The X4 has the premium lens guards now that essentially are exactly that🙌
I find the footage out of this camera to be a bit blurry; not as sharp as what you get out of a DJI Osmo Action or even a recent GoPro Hero.
Removable lens guard FTW
So dang stoked!!!🙌
Hi.. usually there's shutter lag when taking photos using action cam.. does this happens with the ace pro 2?..
what are the smart glasses you are wearing?
what about battery comparison? and over heating?
Love you reviews. Will it support 2 DJI mics simultaneously?
Which cam did you use to shoot the beach shot where you are holding the new cam and talking?
That’s the A7Cii I’ve been testing lately! Super dope camera and it’s tiny!
I still don't love how it looks!
I’ve just bought the DJI Action 5 pro but I think this is a purchase I’m going to have to make as well
David, can you plug in something like the Hollyland Lark 2’s USB-C receiver directly to the Ace Pro 2?
@davidManning - does the camera have the 2.7k recoding option?
We need examples and comparisons in vertical mode for those of us who shots In vertical
I want an action for the same usage as you. For kids running around and family vlogs. Between the ace pro 2 and action 5, which provides ease of use(using the camera and file transfer), video(out of camera), audio(internal mic). Thanks
Great video. You have a beautiful family. Any sound tests?
Just need to know how battery compares to Action 5.
Ace Pro 2 has about three hours of battery life and Action 5 Pro has almost four hours of battery life👍
This is great......you gonna give us the X4 vs Ace Pro 2 showdown?!
I need to see the 2x indoors at 60fps
Hahaha what’s the use case for that? In general, you’ll want plenty of light to be using the 2x because it’s not quad pixel bining

DJI Action Pro is the better choice-why pay extra for AcePro2 when, even later on, they’re hard to sell as used.
Hey Bro. Cool Review. Can you say how much color grading you did in any of these shots?
I don’t trust anyone who posts reviews on and around release days
lucky im goin back in 3 weeks
