Insta360 Product
The Ace Pro 2 is the camera I’m using here because, when it comes to macro underwater, it’s currently the strongest option—especially with 2x Clarity Zoom and the ability to shoot RAW macro photos. The hardware is there; the frustration is the firmware, so this video is about getting the most out of it until Insta360 fixes the UI limitations.
You'll be taken to Insta360 to complete your purchase.
Pros
- +Can shoot 4K60 at 2x zoom for macro video

- +Excellent macro results when set up correctly
Cons
