Latest, compare the two we have the Insta Ace Pro 2 and the other is the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro camera. In the comparison table, you can see the major core differences between the two, but the low-light performance of the Insta Ace Pro 2 due to its recent enhancements and advanced AI algorithm, despite having low ISO range, the camera is able to perform admirably to capture excellent details even in extreme low light.
