MAX2

I use gopro max (360 degrees), so it makes no sense to mount it on the helmet unless I wanted to have half of fov covering my dark visor :p. I mount it on the bike, in the back on two points (clamped) and a selfie stick (around 1.5m, that is like 9 feet) - on the pillion peg and on the pillion holder). That has pros and cons. Last year, one of the clamps broke (the top one), the camera was mounted on a 4foot stick that then worked as a large broom sweeping behind me, I only noticed like 10 miles later. Gopro was completely destroyed. I got a new one under the replacement programe. So that is a potential problem :). On the other hand I ride nakeds and assumed that mounting a holder on my chin would be a bitch as far as wind buffeting me. It gets pretty windy and loud even without a mount. I never even considered how badly it would suck if I crashed, although that is an excellent point. The bike is speed triple, the helmet arai rx-7v.

Lol, scratched if you look at it, funny. Yeah and another thing is I’m still going to use my 11 and to have all the footage in the same place will be so convenient. Lastly, people that for some reason or another really don’t wanna like the max two, that are very high on the 360 and Osmo are acting like the gap is huge. Not leaving the ecosystem is an easier choice.

That’s what I think for low light I can work around it

I hear you, but I feel like all three are essentially equal and the max keeps me in the GoPro ecosystem. I’m game!

Max 2 sold out ?

Absolutely, if you mount it on the back you’d see more of the rear and front more your son. Just more detailed

Don’t scratch it lol I looked at it hard but waited

I’d sell you mine! It’s a cool device but I’m still reaching for my GoPro 11 more. I sometimes don’t know what I should capture with the Max 2 I’m into photography so naturally I thought adding a 360 becomes necessary but, 360 for me is too niche it’s part of my bag though

GoPro hero 13. Best image quality of any action camera.  Max 2, fairly good image wuality for a 360 camera but comes with 360 video workflow which is very tasking in comparison.  If you dont need 360 camera, get a the GoPro 13.

Insta360 X5 4k@120fps vs Max 2 4k@100fps / 72mp still camera vs 29mp still camera / Both sensors on the X5 are almost double the size of Max2 / Deeper water resistance / Bigger battery / Longer battery life / Removed lenses / Better software...

Before I do, I'm not just listing off specs. I'm giving a true representation of both units. You just lied about saying some software features don't exist, even though they do, you just don't know how to use them. You then listed off your opinion with 1 spec that doesn't actually affect any outcome of use. Well your software points is completely null and void. You think the GoPro software is good because it's so old and crap, that's not what most video editors want. Saying a software is better because it's featureless and old makes you sound old and out of touch with current tech. Regarding this nonsensical 'true 8k' marketing... If you understood cameras, you understand that it's null and void. Given then your packing that small amount of extra 'true (LOL) 8K' into tiny sensors. Both insta360 sensors are almost double the size making the actual real world results way better.

Right cause the max 2 blows insta x5 out of the embarrassing water
