Nice informative review Ben but you ought to state off the bat you were given the camera in the video rather than expect people to read links/description or watch upto the last 10 seconds.

Wow I really missed this episode to learn a bit about it. Thanks for and enjoy your running 🏃‍♂️

Great video Ben. Love getting the perspective from a runner. I like running with my Go 3 because it’s so light and I can just point and shoot. 👍🏼😀📸

So handy right! People often thing I’m running along with a massive dslr but no it’s just this little guy 😂

Hi Ben, great review. Definitely thinking of getting one for the Sydney and Chicago marathons this year. What size is the selfie stick? And do I need to purchase the mount also? Cheers mate! 👌

Hey Ben! Love the review, looks like something that would really be useful for what I’m filming. I Just started filming my training for my second marathon, and am hoping to go under 2:30 for my marathon. I was wondering if you have any advice for a training plan/content creation?

I really like the look of this Ben and a great review by the way 👏 I didn't see the stick as an option on the website 🤔 As a cyclist, as-well as running, I hope they sort Wahoo integration soon for data overlays as that is the only thing from stopping me making a purchase 🙏

SUPERBLAST 2 I SEE

Is x3 better or go 3s ?

so its really good for runners?

What do you use to edit your videos?

Thanks for this video. Which selfie stick and which mount is it exactly?

@BenIsRunning

The mount came with the package and the selfie stick is one from insta360 I’ve had since I had the GO 2. Not sure if you can buy it on the website but I presume so :)

Given this was sent for free and there are affiliate links, more of an ad than a review no? Certainly not an unbiased review. I know this is the norm on the Tube these days, I just always appreciate transparency.

For sure, totally respectable point…as the description reads “This camera was sent to me by Insta360 for the purpose of review however all my thoughts and opinions shared are very much my own. This is a product I genuinely use daily so this was a great opportunity to share hopefully some insight into how.” The video also clearly has displayed on screen “this is part of paid promotion” inline with KZread policy so by no means intending to pull the wool over everyone’s eyes 🫡

@@BenIsRunning You describe it as a review but it's an advert. You have a relationship w/ Insta360 so how can it possibly be an independent review? Many KZreadrs think their subscribers are daft.

Its probably why people generally appreciate the likes of Ben Parkes more in terms of reviewing anything since he buys everything with 100% of his own money, whereas its a mixed bag elsewhere. Not saying it would happen, but if Ben Felton gave a really bad review of Soar or Adidas, do you think they'll send him free gear again in the near future? 🤔

It's said that the changes are minor... It's like buying a new IPhone each year... do you absolutely need it ? No, but you buy it because it's the latest in each category... There are already some comparisons out there if you want to watch

Take a nap, you’re cranky. Ben rules.

This is great Ben, highly appreciated, I’ve ordered it, I noticed you didn’t have a coupon code. Could be great next time you recommend a product. All the best from Oz’

Hope you get on well with it! No codes I’m afraid but I do have an affiliate link in the description :)

Thanks, ended up buying one. Do you normally leave your case when you're running and just take the small camera?

@BenIsRunning

21 күн бұрын

Most of the time yes! Especially for races/workouts. The only time I take the case is when I want to use other features like slomo/timelapse :)

Hi Ben. When you were talking about vlogging you said you would use the insta. But I noticed a restricted depth of field in the shot. That one would not normally get with an action camera. What were you shooting on at that point? Thanks

@BenIsRunning

That shot in this video is shot with my mirrorless camera which I use for all my sit down style shots. I’d need some bigger biceps to use that as a vlog camera 😂

@BenIsRunning

In terms of vlogging, I’m talking about when I’m genuinely walking around/on the go where the portability for me outweighs say deep of field but will change between the two given the situation

How would you compare the footage to the insta360 Ace pro? I use that camera for my videos and I love the footage but it’s a lot harder to carry compared to this camera! I would love to hear your opinion, thanks!

@BenIsRunning

I’ve only used the GO range from insta360 purely because of its portability for me in races. The quality as hopefully you can see is definitely a step up but can’t compare to the ace pro as haven’t used that product :)

@@BenIsRunning Thanks for the reply! I totally understand the appeal of the GO range for portability, especially during races where every bit of convenience matters. Your footage looks impressive, and it’s great to see that the quality is a step up. I might need to try out the GO range for those times when carrying the Ace Pro is just too cumbersome. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing your insights!

ASICS superblast 2 !!

What's the battery life like?

@BenIsRunning

Much better than the older models. In the case I can use it all day no problem and out of the case it lasts around 40mins-1hour when filming

Which shoe are you likely to review next?
