    An interesting test - the Ace Pro looked to be really good in your earlier low-light trials, but clearly couldn't match the Pocket 3 here.. The Pocket 3 is a great successor to the really strong Pocket 2

      Mike the reason it did bad here, no street light or any light sources. It needs some light to work. You can clearly see the bigger sensor on the pocket 3. Thanks for watching 😀

    i think the pocket 3 is much better in low-light. I also bought it from own money and I think it is very good. What i dont´t like on the Ace Pro is the normal color-profile. Nobody talks about the red faces all Reviewers have. GoRro got a lot of criticsn for their not looking natural colors. I think Osmo Action 4 has the more natural looking colors. You can use an external Mike without buying a Mikejack. And you can exchange the protection lens. These are the reasons why I would buy Action. In the monent I´m using Insta 360 RS. The Low-Light Performance is not very good.

    They're both good, actually, and aside that the Ace tally light was left on and the white balance is off, both would clean up nice in post. The DJI is taking full advantage of a wider iso range and the mechanical gimbal, but lets the sky and snow approach blow out more than the Ace. The night looks like day that iso 16000 is assisting isn't to my liking, but I do like that it brings you as the subject out very well. The Ace is limited, respectively, to a lower iso, which darkens up things a bit SOOC. The background is more natural for a dark setting on the Ace, IMO. I bit of post magic would probably make the Ace represent better. The Pocket 3 is not weather protected at all, which is a concern for my use. Nice video. I have the R and RS predecessors to the Ace and am considering either the Ace or Pocket 3. Haven't made up my mind.

    • @EspenJohan
      @EspenJohan  11 місяців тому

      Hi 😀, thanks for watching. My fault in the white balance, I made a mistake locking it. The ace pro is a good camera, the record light was annoying. Is it possible to turn off?. As an action camera the ace pro is good, but if I should choose one action camera. I would buy the action 4. The pocket 3 is excellent, but not waterproof. And that's a bug deal if you want a camera for all use.

    Greetings Johan. The OSMO Pocket 3 is the clear low light winner in these tests. However, both cameras are yielding out of focus results on your face in low light. The Pocket 3 seems to be hunting for focus allot ? I think this is simply an internal focus setting issue in the menu ? You should have a choice in the Pocket 3 menu to set single focus or constant focus mode ? You will probably get better results in low light if you set the focus mode to "single focus" mode. This way, the camera will find focus one time, then lock off the focus as long as you don't drastically change the distance between your camera and your face. Also, be sure both cameras have the very latest firmware updates installed. I know for a fact with my OG OSMO Pocket that when I first got the camera the focus accuracy was off, and with each firmware update the focus accuracy improved to the point of perfection by the last firmware update. This may also be the case for the AcePro ?

Color in the insta360 is red-ish (flickering different shades) but still red.. also as I would expect, the pocket 3 blows it out of the water with stabilization when running.
