The Insta360 GO Ultra, a mini action camera, has been reviewed for motorcyclists by John Milbank, the Consumer Editor of Bennetts BikeSocial. This compact camera offers excellent video and audio quality, making it a versatile tool for capturing on-the-go footage. The camera module is detachable from the main body, allowing for remote monitoring and control via the docking pod.
For motorcyclists, the GO Ultra provides a small unit that can be easily clipped to a helmet or bike, offering flexibility in capturing various angles without the need to access a screen on the camera. The magnetic back of the camera allows for quick attachment to different surfaces, providing convenience in filming different perspectives.
The GO Ultra’s video and audio performance is comparable to the Ace Pro 2, thanks to its new sensor technology. It offers various resolution and frame rate options, catering to different shooting needs. The camera also features multiple shooting modes, including hyperlapse, timelapse, and burst photo, enhancing its versatility for capturing diverse content.
While the GO Ultra excels in daylight performance, its low-light capabilities are notable, especially in Pure Video mode, offering excellent results in challenging lighting conditions. The camera’s audio quality is commendable, although wind noise reduction settings may impact engine and exhaust sounds in certain situations.
The GO Ultra’s battery life is impressive, with both the camera and docking pod featuring rechargeable batteries. The camera’s compact size and lightweight design make it suitable for mounting in various locations, offering a discreet option for Point of View (PoV) footage.
However, the pod’s limited weatherproofing may pose challenges in adverse conditions, restricting its use for extended periods in wet weather. The camera’s haptic feedback feature provides tactile confirmation of recording, enhancing user experience during operation.
Accessories like the Quick Release Mount and Sticky Tabs offer convenient mounting options for the GO Ultra, expanding its usability for different filming setups. The camera’s compatibility with various accessories enhances its adaptability for capturing unique angles and perspectives.
While the GO Ultra may not have the rugged feel of some competitors, its compact size, and advanced features make it a versatile choice for motorcyclists seeking high-quality action camera capabilities. The camera’s performance, coupled with its portable design, offers a compelling option for capturing dynamic footage on the go.
As technology continues to advance, the Insta360 GO Ultra represents a shift towards compact yet powerful action cameras tailored for diverse filming needs. With its blend of performance and portability, the GO Ultra remains a promising choice for motorcyclists looking to document their rides with style and convenience.
