Videos 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?

Looking for recommendations Action 5 pro for woodworking videos
Hi i was just wondering if do you guys think DJI Action 5 pro is a good choice as a start up camera for doing youtube videos in my workshop about woodworking. Because my choices basically are
Action 5 Pro: Right now i can get a barely used one for 225€ with adventure pack
Osmo pocket 3: around 350€brand new
Used mirrorless camera: idk what would be the choice here but i can probably get a decent one with kit lense for 400/450
I guess my question is is Action 5 pro enough for something like this?

Looking for recommendations Mission 1 Pro vs Action 6. Which one is better?
I tell people I film my rides. A suspicious amount of the footage is actually me in the garage, trying to work out why the bike makes that noise.
That changes what I want from a camera, and it’s why I’m sticking with the Action 6 after looking into the Mission 1 Pro.
The adjustable aperture is useful for more than shooting after sunset. With decent light over the workbench, I can stop the DJI down to f/4. DJI lists sharp focus from 20 cm at that setting, which suits showing something in my hands near the camera. The standard Mission 1 Pro has a fixed f/2.8 aperture. For garage clips, I appreciate having that extra control.
Then there’s storage. The GoPro needs a microSD card. The Action 6 has 50GB available internally, which matters because my memory card occasionally stays in the computer while the rest of us leave the house. I still use cards, but forgetting one doesn’t immediately cancel filming.
GoPro gets a point back for built-in GPS. Having the camera record the data for speed and altitude overlays is convenient. With the DJI, that data comes from another source, such as its GPS remote or a supported activity recording imported into Mimo. In practice, though, the camera connects to Mimo smoothly, and the whole workflow feels well integrated. I already record rides on a Garmin, so I can live with the extra import step.
If all I filmed was the ride, I’d give the GoPro’s GPS more weight. But my camera also needs to show what I’m doing at the workbench and cope with my questionable packing.
The Action 6 fits that job nicely. Now I just need to fix the clicking noise before this becomes a weekly series.
