This is the Insta360 Ace Pro 2. It’s co-engineered with Leica, fitted with a 50MP Leica SUMMARIT lens with a 157º field of view, an industry-first dual AI chip (for noise reduction and image processing), and a next-generation 1/1.3″ 8K sensor. There’s also an easy-to-use 2.5” flip touchscreen that really helps in shooting awkward angles and taking selfies.
What’s all-new is the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 Xplorer Bundle that manages to make the camera look both modern and retro at the same time. It has a premium, metallic finish with a strong metal utility frame, a comfortable hand grip and shutter button, versatile mounting points, and a wrist strap so you’ll never drop this device.
The Insta360 Ace Pro 2 is one of the best action cameras you can get today, and when you pair it with accessories like the Chest Strap or Neck Mount, there’s so much to capture. But not everyone is into extreme sports or can afford to go skiing in Niseko; and here’s where the Xplorer rig comes in. The case turns this little action camera into a great street shooter and travel companion. The ergonomic hand grip, classic shutter button and wrist strap are the perfect setup for having this camera ready at all times. While the rig adds some bulk to the otherwise small camera, the whole setup is still pretty compact and discreet so you can take this everywhere and not be mistaken for the event photographer.
As with all collaborations with Leica, there are in-camera Leica colour profiles, including Leica Natural and Leica Vivid. These pics below were taken on Leica Vivid (high saturation and brightness for rich, colourful shots).
The Insta360 Ace Pro 2 Xplorer Bundle (single battery) is priced at $669, while the Dual Battery Xplorer Bundle is $699. Available online from today at insta360.com.
