Great review, ➕ ➕ . As an aspiring tech and cave diver, these are the types of conditions I expect and appreciate seeing in a camera review: wreck, depth, dark/night.
Hello, thanks for video. I was wondering if you have come across the AI chip recognize a school of small colorful fish as noise and try to "fix" it, kind of like the AI video editors will do. I have only seen it on one youtubers video with the ace pro, others have said they haven't seen it but their testing has been a small sample size. Between that and the 8 bit color depth Im hesitant to buy it, but that low light is perfect for UV coral reef dives. Thanks for answer in advance.
@@theunderwaterchupacabra2050 not really to be honest. It's a critique I hear often but if you look at some of the videos on this channel, they're shot entirely on the Ace Pro and I don't see an issue with it. It's obviously not meant for the cinemas but it works perfectly for its small size, in difficult shooting situations for display on socials and RU-vid.
Great Review (series). Thanks a lot. Matthias Lebo noticed constant color shifts during filming, which were very damaging in post-production. Did you noticed that too? Could this have something to do with the fact that he dived in green water and not blue water? I think you can live with the slightly overdone red that is sometimes too much for me. In return you get a really great low light performance.
It's a trade-off for sure. I haven't had too much color shift happening but it's true that on most action cameras with automatic white balance the camera sometimes has trouble locking in the correction that's needed if the situation is extreme. That can definitely happen with very green water for instance.
great video (again). interesting to see that the camera is capable of getting this kind of images without any extra lights. I don't know how many people shoot without lights at depths that require light or night dives...i think the investment they should have would be to get a video light instead of new camera...
You should! I made the switch myself and had gopro for years and bought the 12 in december but too many failures to be worth it lately. Battery overheating, crashes, not turning on etc etc... not what you expect from an action camera really. After gopro4 it all went downhill.
Great video. Do you list the settings you used for each dive (especially the night dive)? I was wondering if ever used PureVideo underwater? What was the mode (video, etc.), white balance and EV settings, frame rate, etc. Thanks again. Great video.
Hi. This is a great review, thanks. May I ask where are you recording these shots, as the visibility is outstanding, especially at high depth (60m) Another question. Did you notice any improvements or add-ons along with the firmware updates you received since you first used this camera? Thanks in advance for your feedback. 👌🏻
Hi! Don't buy it right now. In two months a new edition is coming out! If you subscribe to the channel and follow me on Instagram, you will surely see notifications about it. It should also release in Spain and has 3 new chapters!
Okay , Roger that. Thanks for notice , despite of that , I would rather to buy in English , cause I m learning English for a non far future in the diving industry. I ll buy it both . Thanks men.
Have you tried out the DJI Action 4? Not saying it's better or not either way, just wondering if comparison has been done. I've looked around before, and most divers that's tested action cameras don't dive more than 10m in broad daylight, which to me isn't a good baseline. Was glad to see a 30m dive. Personally I am guessing it would be the same, if we're just looking at hardware, same tiny sensors and such. But, Insta360 as a company seems to add additional focus on their software, so wonder if it comes out better after their software coping with it.
