Thanks a lot for the feedback! Yeah, I try to reply to all the comments, at least for the moment they’re not too many so I can actually take the time and properly answer to a person that also took the time to watch and comment. It’s the least I can do!

Thanks! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Yeah, the camera is pretty good with the exception of the focusing distance! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.

I totally agree with you! They should just stop branding it as a vlog camera, don't you agree? I mean I do praise it for its qualities but... I think they wanted to reach too many people.

😂😂😂😂😂

And I am happy for you! Actually for taking photos it is pretty good I have to say! What diopter do you have?

The X3 and X4 are amazing! They do everything and they are fun. The only downside is the file size and file management

I think the Osmo Pocket is better! I didn’t have the chance to use it but from what I’ve seen it is better. If you don’t plan on shooting action scenes where you plant the camera on a car or dirt bike or stuff like that and don’t need weather proofing then osmo pocket 3 is better

Thanks!

Ciao Riccardo! Guarda secondo me è una grande action cam ma hanno un po' mentito su questo fatto della focusin distance e rompe un po' le scatole. Però generalmente come ho detto nel video è una bomba.

Hey! Yeah, for sure the ads should have been clearer. And yes at the time the video was shot, in the beginning the camera came out, there were not too many options for adapters available. Anyway it’s not the most ideal thing but if all you do is adventure films on the bike in which you don’t really need to get close to the camera to speak to somebody then it is a very good camera!

Glad I could help!

Glad you like it!

bro the problem is that the company says 40cm and in reality is 60! And also if you make a camera that is supposed to be meant for vloggers with big egos and magnificent visages then do it properly. And thanks for the comment and for watching man! I really feel like my complaining and magnificent visage touched you! I just love the internet(I am not even sarcastic)

In theory yes

That’s interesting! Idk if it is my model or something. Most reviews (not sponsors obv) say the same thing, that it does not focus at 40 but goes over.

just yesterday I was testing viewpoints for metal detecting and setup the ace pro on a little tripod selfie stick well within 40cm give or take 1920x1080 30fp meter mode matrix sharpness average and from what I could see once I watched it on my phone was cristal clear and did test on my bureau small letters become out of focus yes but the bigger letters on my t-shirt where clear my face also and all give or take within 40cm and I did noticed when I film myself I tend to have it a little further away from me don't like it to close but keep in mind it's still an action camera but an advanced one perfect no but what it does it does it good so what it does is that to your needs yes or no ???? that's the question right and knowing how to work around things and making good use of all the setting possibility's are key but never less from a action camera point of view it's darn good perfect sure not I wish and it's the need of person that buy's it for me it's more than enough ps if you want full on super blue-ray clarity straight up in to your face up close and personal around this date there are options for the ace pro but probably you need something else and than it's not a action camera you need just wait we live in interesting times maybe something comes out soon that'll blow our minds insta360 is definitely on the right path

No, I know, but in reality, idk if it is just my model but this one focuses at 60cm. And honestly if you watch other non sponsored videos you'll have people complaining about the same issue.

I can see it being sharp at 40 cm on your ruler

Mate it is just not there, the camera is good, and I have shot some things that actually look pretty decent for an action cam, but sometimes it is just annoying to see stuff behind you that are in focus. And don't mean only for vlogging. Think about when you want to shoot a close up of something like a flower or a leaf ora some other things and you cannot get close, or you have to mount the diopter and unmount it. With this particular camera the company should have just came out and be direct and straight about it.

Thanks for the reply. I wag h your video on my phone (like many people probably have), so that might have something to do with not seeing the subtleties in the quality. I found your video while researching for replacements for my GoPros, which just randomly become bricks. I mainly do action shots driving 4x4s, quads, dirtbikes, mountain/BMX, etc.... with some vlog type talking here and there. In your opinion, would you recommend this camera?

Thank you for watching and commenting. Listen if you know that you almost never will need to go close to a subject then yes, it is pretty good, quality wise is awesome, you can even rig it up properly to have better protection for quads and dirtbikes. Don't buy it if you plan to talk to the camera a lot. But that's just my 2 cents on it.

I really appreciate you taking time out of your day to respond. This camera is high on my list of replacements for my current cams.

And I totally agree with you! Problem is that they state the minimum focusing distance is 40 centimeters and in reality it kind of starts focusing at 55-60 centimeters. The problem is not the camera is the advertisement that’s been done so far. And yes this action camera does not do it for me.

according to my test it is not true, and believe me I've done more than one

Yeah I think it is better 😅

Ture, true I just made this video so that other people who would like to buy this camera for vlogging know about it. Maybe it will help a few people make a good decision. It's about giving something to the community and getting some views and maybe in the future making a living out of it. Thanks for the comment and the view!

wanna buy it?

For how much 🤨
