Unparalleled Image Quality

Both models feature 48-megapixel sensors, with the Insta360 Ace measuring 1/2" and the Insta360 Ace Pro measuring 1/1.3". The Ace Pro, in particular, stands out for its larger sensor, co-designed with Leica, which captures more light and offers a better dynamic range, ideal for fast-action scenarios or in difficult lighting conditions.

This feature is especially useful for twilight walks or shooting nighttime urban scenes.

Intelligent Shooting Features

• 2.4-inch Rotating Touchscreen: Both models feature a 2.4-inch rotating touchscreen, providing great flexibility for framing your shots. This screen is perfect for vlogging, selfies, and capturing difficult angles.

• Clarity Zoom: The Ace Pro allows 2x zoom in and out without loss of image quality, a unique feature compared to other cameras that simply crop the image.

• Gesture and Voice Control: Both models offer gesture and voice control options, allowing convenient hands-free use in various situations.

Active HDR and Color Accuracy

The Ace Pro features built-in active HDR (high dynamic range), which is useful for shooting scenes with bright and dark areas, enhancing details in highlights and shadows for more vibrant videos. Additionally, extensive work has been done on color accuracy, allowing the Ace Pro to deliver accurate and rich colors, even underwater.
