The ultimate publicity management characteristic is one I take advantage of rather a lot, and it is publicity compensation. This works with the auto publicity and can be utilized to fight the tendency to go too sluggish with the shutter velocity be forcing the Ace Professional 2 to underexpose the picture. The publicity comp right here is one of the best amongst motion cameras, working from –4 stops to + 4 stops in ⅓-stop increments. I set the Xplorer Grip to manage EV, so when I’m in auto mode, the dial is an publicity comp dial identical to “actual” digital camera. (The dial may also be set to manage ISO, shutter velocity, taking pictures mode, filter choice, and white steadiness.)
Even higher, in the event you’re in guide mode and also you need to return to auto, the primary click on of the dial will open the facet panel, the second will change from guide to auto, the third will begin adjusting your publicity worth. It is a actually quick approach to get from a rigorously composed publicity again to full auto while not having to get into the touchscreen menus.
The ultimate factor value mentioning is the included Leica shade profiles. If you have not up to date your firmware lately, you must. Insta360 has added a number of extra of those. As a result of I shoot RAW, I do not use these a lot, however as shade profiles go these are nice, particularly the brand new Leica high-contrast black and white, which is what I have been utilizing more often than not. This manner I get a black-and-white JPG and a full-color RAW file.
To be trustworthy, I didn’t have excessive hopes for the Xplorer Grip Professional Package. For me, motion cameras have primarily been for taking pictures round water, and whereas that also works with the naked digital camera, it would not with the grip. Nonetheless, I used to be pleasantly shocked utilizing the Ace Professional 2 with the Xplorer grip as an on a regular basis digital camera.
I might say it is best regarded as a praise to your current “actual” digital camera. It’s not going to switch your interchangeable lens digital camera. It may change your point-and-shoot, however I have never executed that, as a result of typically I desire a pocket digital camera with a 28mm lens. As an alternative, the Ace Professional 2 with the grip has turn out to be an additional digital camera that I convey alongside after I desire a broad angle or fisheye look and do not feel like lugging a giant, heavy, quick, full-frame, ultrawide lens.
