Actioncam

Insta360 has gone and made another tiny shooter for capturing adventure and POV footage. The versatile $450 Go Ultra packs new internals for more imaging power, storage, and runtime than the previous model – and it's smaller than your AirPods case.

HoverAir Aqua is the world's first water-native drone – fully waterproof, self-flying, and built for watersports. Toss it in, press a button, and it floats, flies, and films. I've seen it in action, and it's going to change the game.

Insta360 flipped the switch on action cams when it first released the first 360-degree One RS in 2022. Now, the company has just upgraded its flagship line with the all-new X5. But for a camera that was already near-flawless, what could it have done more?

Your GoPro may be all very well and good, but can it shoot in two directions at once? The Soocoo S50+ can, allowing it to serve as a cycling actioncam, rearview camera, and accident-recording dashcam.

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.

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.
