Actioncam

The Insta360 Ace Pro 2 is the latest action camera on the market. The successor to the Ace Pro gets quite a few features including Leica-engineered color profiles, a dedicated Pro imaging chip, 8K video quality, and most importantly, AI processing.

What do you want from an action cam? It should be rugged, reliable, and able to capture great video and audio. But that’s just the bare minimum for DJI and its all-new Action 5 Pro – a serious big hitter that might just displace GoPro from its throne.

With interchangeable lenses, a magnetic mount, and a magnetic charger, GoPro Hero 13’s biggest upgrades are on the outside. But that’s not to say nothing's new on the inside; it gets a bigger battery with new power delivery and is priced at US$399.

If you're paying up to $550 for a GoPro, you'd better be sure that you're allowing it to deliver the best footage possible. The ActionBox Cine housing is designed to make that happen, with an adjustable lens shade, quick-mount filters and more.

Insta360 has launched a new wide-angle actioncam called the Ace Pro, which was co-engineered with imaging titan Leica, and has the outward appearance of a GoPro, but offers more in the video and photo departments.

It's been less than a year since the launch of the Osmo Action 3 actioncam, but DJI is ready to rock its successor. The Osmo Action 4 boasts a larger image sensor plus improved low-light and dynamic-range performance.

Back in 2019, Insta360 crammed the image stabilization tech from its 360-degree cameras into a thumb-sized 1080p actioncam/lifelogger called the Go. More capabilities were added in 2021, and now the much-improved Go 3 has been revealed.

Last year we reviewed the Feiyu Pocket 2S, an actioncam with a hard-wired detachable gimbal camera head. Well, Feiyu has now upped its game with the fully wireless Pocket 3, which looks like it should make for much easier shooting on the go.

Not to be outdone by GoPro's announcement of the Hero 11 actioncams, DJI has unveiled its own new Osmo Action 3. Among other things, it offers long battery life, dual touchscreens, and the ability to shoot vertical video for social media platforms.

GoPro has taken the wraps off the Hero 11 Black actioncam, which has been joined by a Creator Edition and a Mini version. All come with a larger image sensor, improved stabilization, and simpler operation.

Insta360 has launched an update to its 360-degree pocket actioncam. The candybar-shaped X3 can capture all-around stabilized video at up to 5.7K resolution accompanied by directional audio, with tweaking possible via app-based AI editing tools.

There are now a number of actioncams that can be attached to a fishing line, where they shoot video of fish being reeled in. The dual-camera waterproof Siren X-1 takes things further, as it shoots both down into the water and up towards the angler.
