DJI Action 7 Is Coming… Here’s What I Want to See

DJI Action 7 Is Coming… Here’s What I Want to See

DJI is close to releasing their Action 7. Now, starting off, there's a lot of misinformation regarding when this camera will likely be released. I don't have any insight from DJI themselves, but Insta360 has told me that they're planning to likely release in the new year, several months from now. And if you've followed DJI releases over the last year it is very unlikely for it to release it before Insta360, which means there's very little chance we see an Action 7 before February. As for what I'd like to see added with the 7, there are many other changes I would like to see, and in this video I go over a lot of those improvements that I feel are crucial for it to succeed. Throughout the video, I swap between the Action 6 and the Pocket 4P, so you can also consider it a comparison video if you're interested in having a watch.
Now please let me know what improvements you'd like to see added to Action 7.
Anyway, that is all thanks everyone!

Insta360 X6 Just Got a BIG Update – 4K 120 & 200fps Slow Motion!

Insta360, just dropped an update for their X6 360 camera, and I’m a little surprised not too many are chatting about it. This is firmware update V1.2.35, and it should be available as soon as you pair your X6 to your phone using Insta360’s app.

Al Director now lets you customize the edit range.
Manually select the date range of footage for Al Director to use, for more flexible results.

360 Video mode now supports 4K120fps.

Flat Video and Flat PureVideo modes now support
48fps and 24fps frame rates.

Flat Photo mode now supports 4:3 and 3:4 aspect ratios.

New 360 Slow-Mo Mode supports 4K200fps, 4K120fps, and 4K100fps.

Routine performance and system stability improvements.

I’ve attached a video showing examples of these new features if you’re wanting to get a better understanding as to what’s been changed. That is all, hope this helps!

Insta360 X6 - 50 Days Later: My Honest Review

It’s been 50 days with the X6, and I’ve been using it long-term to evaluate its performance before creating this single review. In this video, I explore the X6 and where it fits into my workflow, also comparing it to the Luna Ultra and Ace Pro 2, helping you compare and decide if it’s worth upgrading or how it pairs with your current lineup. In this video, I compare everything from the single lens to 360 modes and photo modes with realistic real-world results.

Let me know what your thoughts are on the X6, any surprises with this release over previous versions? Also, what do you feel like this camera is missing? I’d like to make a video featuring upgrades we’d like that would be possible through firmware beyond the ones suggested in the video. Anyways, that is all. Thanks for your time!

Insta360 Luna Pro: Did They Wait Too Long?

The Luna Pro was finally released today at a somewhat surprising price, but does it offer enough to compete, or is it too late? In this video, I share my thoughts as someone who has used and reviewed the Luna Ultra and also the Pocket 4P extensively. In this video, I share my thoughts on where this Luna Pro stands and also offer some comparisons between the iPhone 17 Pro and the Pocket 4P using the 1x lens on Luna Ultra. What are your thoughts on the Luna Pro, is it too little, too late, or do you think it’s still a great purchase?

Review Of The Pgytech OnePro Ultralight 30L Camera Bag

Backpacks are one of the most overlooked pieces of camera gear in my opinion. In this video, I review the Pgytech One Pro UltraLight 30L Bag after using it for a month to share the positives and negatives of this bag. Here's a little hint about where I stand—there's very little wrong with the bag. I'm curious—has anyone else tried any other models of Pgytech bags? If so, what's your opinion on them?

Testing To See If The Smallrig Stabilizer Arm Is Effective Minimizing Jitter/Bobblehead Movements

Hey everyone, If you've ever experienced jitter or the bobblehead movement with action/pocket cams, there's one device that easily fixes that. In this video, I review the SmallRig Handheld Stabilizer Arm. I test it with the Insta360 X6, Pocket 4P, Luna Ultra, and the Mission 1. Would you ever consider using a stabilizer arm for action or pocket cams?

Pocket 4/4 Pro Update You’ve Been Waiting For (240fps LOG!)

Hey everyone, DJI released their newest update for the Pocket 4 and Pocket 4P today. If you wanted to see what all was changed, I made a video going through the different changes to show you what to expect. The headlining update, of course, is that 240 FPS log now available within both the 4 and the 4P cameras, which is an excellent addition in my opinion to the camera, which I provide several examples of along with the other updated features. I hope this helps clear up the changes for people looking for real world examples.

DJI Pocket 4 P Review — Compared to Luna Ultra (Base ISO, Tracking, ND Filters)

There's been a lot of debate over which is actually the better camera, the Pocket 4 Pro or the Luna Ultra. I made a full review comparing the two, focusing on real-world user experience and actual results rather than spec sheets.

One of the many things covered is the ISO performance across the range in D-Log 2 to see if the claimed 1600 native ISO on the Pocket 4 Pro actually holds up, along with a bunch of other tests.

Curious what this sub thinks — what else would you want to see compared between these two? And if you've used both, which one do you actually prefer overall?

Insta360 Luna Ultra: 30 Days Later (Is It Actually Fixed?)

I spent 30 days with the Luna Ultra to make this review. Since I picked it up after the camera's initial launch, almost all the footage was shot on either the beta firmware or the most recent official release. In the second half of the video, I do some comparisons to see what Insta360 actually fixed with this update — including whether the auto-ISO issue in I-Log still persists. I hope you all enjoy this review, as I spent many hours filming and editing it.

This Update Makes Mission 1 Footage Look SO Much Better

After watching ChrisMeetsChris’ video mentioning Mission 1’s newest GP-LOG2 LUT — created by Abe Kislevitz — that brings the cinematic look from the normal preset over to GP-LOG2, I thought I’d test it out in Vancouver during the Sweden vs. Canada chaos in Vancouver last week. I have to say, I’m loving the range this log format gives you, and I think it’s a pretty decent starting point for a grade.

Have you tried the LUT linked below? If so, how do you think it compares to the release LUTs?

Insta360 Made a Pro Mic… and I Wasn’t Expecting This

After using the Mic Pro for several weeks on the latest firmware, I created this video to give an honest review of the Mic Pro in various recording settings. I include untreated indoor tests, windy bike tests, and outdoor tests in a nature reserve with straight out-of-mic raw audio, as well as Davinci Resolve processed audio. I hope you like this one, as I dedicated quite a few days to its production. Anyway, thanks for your time.

GoPro Mission 1, Action 6, Ace Pro 2 - 8K Comparison And Overheat Test

I just recently released a video comparing the 8K to the 4K, plus overheating tests using the Ace Pro 2, GoPro’s Mission 1, and the DjI Action 6 based on a user’s request. I have side-by-side comparisons of all cameras in those 4K and 8k modes to easily show the difference between all cameras mentioned. In the description of the video, I also have JPEGs available to download directly from my DaVinci timeline for comparison if you feel YouTube compression is degrading the quality. Is there anything else you’d like tested between these three action cameras? Thanks for your time!

GoPro's Mission to Kill the DJI Action 6 (Non-Sponsored)

I've had the GoPro Mission 1 that I bought myself for a few days now, and since receiving it, I've used it alongside my Osmo Action 6, comparing them side by side. I'm mainly sharing what I found that I think is a useful difference to mention, rather than anything too technical, since that information has been out for over a month now. If you want an honest comparison between both cameras, I think you'll find it in this video. Thanks for your time!

Insta360 GO Ultra Photography Test - The Review Nobody Made

Since the GO Ultra was released, the photography mode has been ignored when it comes to reviews or thorough overviews of the photography features within this camera.
In this video, I share the differences between 12.5 megapixels vs. 50. I also share what was changed in the recent firmware update, with changes to portrait mode and all the recently updated film looks within the camera.

If you’re curious how this performs using the micro lens kit or just simply with the standard lens alone, I think you’ll find this video of value to you.

DJI Action 6 New Firmware - Investigating the 1:1 FOV Changes

DJI recently released an update for the Action 6, but there’s a lot of confusion about the changes. Specifically, people are confused about the 1:1 change in the field of view and the addition of AI highlights. In this video, I compare before-and-after shots of the FOV, and I also get some clarification from DJI staff about my findings. I’ll also explore the usefulness of the highlights feature alongside the other new updates.

I hope this clears up any confusion you might have!
