Insta360 Ace Pro 2 Accessory Recommendation List

Conclusion first: The accessories you’ll need can vary completely depending on the scenario, so I recommend deciding on your shooting situations before choosing which Ace Pro 2 gear to buy.

I’ll be highlighting several must-have accessories tailored to different usage scenarios. The focus will be on four main categories: “Daily Vlogging 📷,” “Motorbike Riding 🏍️,” “Road Cycling 🚴,” and “Diving 🤿.” These are the situations where I most often use the Ace Pro 2, and every accessory I recommend here has been personally tested and proven to be both practical and reliable.

Must-Have Accessories for Ace Pro 2 Vlog Travel 📷

With its flip screen and class-leading 8K image quality, the Ace Pro 2 has become my go-to camera for recording daily vlogs. Below are the accessories I highly recommend for anyone using the Ace Pro 2 to create vlogs~

Multi Mount

Ace Proと多機能自撮り棒

This durable plastic tripod selfie stick is, in my opinion, the best choice for the Ace Pro 2. To illustrate this clearly, I referred to the official Insta360 information, which visually highlights the foldable design of this accessory.

多機能自撮り棒

This tripod is very sturdy and provides enough stability to support the larger Ace Pro 2. It features multi-joint and extendable design, allowing you to start shooting from specific angles without holding the selfie stick.

多機能自撮り棒

The ball joint design of the mount is easy to operate, with just the right tightness—neither too loose nor too stiff—striking a great balance between stability and adjustability. Even fine angle adjustments feel smooth, likely thanks to ergonomic considerations. Overall, I really like the feel. The tripod also features a claw design, allowing you to hang it on railings or hold it at more extreme angles, offering excellent versatility.

Mini 2 in 1 Tripod

Mini Tripod Selfie Stick Parameters

If you're looking for accessories for vlogging or travel, my second recommendation is the Ace Pro 2 mini tripod selfie stick . When unfolded, it's 43cm long, enough for wide-angle selfies; when folded, it's only 16cm, almost the size of a smartphone, making it very portable. This accessory is also included in the popular Ace Pro 2 bundle .

When extended, the mini tripod selfie stick is almost the same length as a multi-functional selfie stick, offering considerable freedom in framing shots. The clip-on lock design is simple and easy to operate. However, compared to a multi-functional selfie stick, its stability is slightly less, and in windy conditions, it may be necessary to lower the tripod to prevent swaying.

In addition to being lightweight, the mini selfie stick is also compatible with the magnetic selfie stick holder that will be introduced later, making it convenient for use in hiking scenarios.

This mini tripod selfie stick has now been upgraded to version 2.0 and can be used in combination with a mini Bluetooth remote control . It can freely switch between two modes: a 58.5cm selfie stick and a tripod.

Magnetic Selfie Stick Holster

Left: Peak Design Right. Magnetic Selfie Stick Holster

One of the most popular accessories for hiking and travel Vlogs is the Ace Pro 2 Magnetic Selfie Stick Holster, which works perfectly with a selfie stick. Its design seems inspired by Peak Design, and in terms of both structure and usability, this accessory is definitely worth getting.

マグネット式自撮り棒ホルスターの操作

It’s easy to set up and take down, and while its design is similar to Peak Design, it’s actually more user-friendly. Personally, I’m very satisfied with it.

When attached to your chest, it can also function as a first-person view camera, perfectly complementing the Ace Pro 2 and offering a wider range of creative angles.

Quick Release Mount (Highly recommended)

This mount uses magnets and a quick-release mechanism to make setting up the Ace Pro 2 effortless. The camera is securely held in place by magnets, and to remove it, you simply press the knobs on either side—so there’s no need to worry about it falling off.

Ace Proの通常マウント取り付け

While the Ace Pro 2 standard mount also features a one-click installation function, the magnetic quick-release mount might seem unnecessary. However, after actually using the quick-release mount , I found having two mounts to be incredibly convenient. For example, when using a motorcycle selfie stick, switching from the helmet mount to the other mount becomes much smoother. Another advantage of the magnetic quick-release mount is that it's simpler to install than the standard mount, and currently, only DJI and Insta360 action cameras use this magnetic design; GoPro action cameras can't easily match it yet.

If you own both an Ace Pro 2 and an X5, I highly recommend getting the Quick-Release Mount 2.0 . This accessory is designed for off-road, mountain bike, and motocross scenarios, and is compatible with the Insta360 X4, X5, and Ace Pro 2. It allows you to switch between a 1/4″ mount and a two-claw mount in seconds, enabling quick camera mounting and dismounting, as well as flexible camera position changes, making outdoor shooting incredibly convenient.

Cold Shoe and Microphone Adapter

To connect an external microphone to the Ace Pro 2, you’ll need the Cold Shoe and the Microphone Adapter, both of which are sold separately. If you have a microphone that supports Bluetooth, these accessories are not required.

Street Photography Set Snowy Mountain White Limited Edition

On September 9, 2025, Insta360 officially unveiled the Ace Pro 2 Snowy Mountain White Limited Edition at the Internationale Funktionsselektronik (IFA) in Berlin as part of its ongoing partnership with Leica. The white body is paired with a silver streetwear set, demonstrating the brand's pioneering exploration of "white design" in the sports camera space. Compared to the common black color, white sports cameras are more difficult to produce, with lower yields and greater quality control challenges. Therefore, this limited edition not only represents a breakthrough in Insta360's craftsmanship, but also responds to the expectations of many users for a "white sports camera".

Mini Power Handle

If you're considering getting the Ace Pro 2 Snow White version, it's recommended to get this newly released White Mini Power Grip.

Not only does the color scheme of the Ace Pro 2 echo perfectly with the snowy white Ace Pro 2, presenting an integrated visual aesthetics, but also the charge as you shoot function is an important feature. This allows you to record vlogs without worrying about power, so you can stop worrying about power and capture every moment.

The transmitter (TX) is only about 27mm in diameter and weighs only 7.9 grams, and can be easily attached to clothing with a clip or magnet. Bluetooth connectivity is supported with Insta360 X5 and Ace Pro 2 pairs directly without the need for an additional receiver, while the included USB-C The included USB-C receiver connects to smartphones and the Flow 2 Pro.

As the original Insta360 microphone, Mic Air with Ace The pairing of the Pro 2 was extremely smooth. The sound quality is natural, clear and unobtrusive, making it ideal for vlogging.

Must-Have Accessories for Ace Pro 2 Motorcyclists 🏍️

Like the X4, the The Ace Pro 2 is also very popular among motorcyclists. The Ace Pro 2 is also very popular among motorcyclists. Especially for night riders, I recommend the larger sensor Ace Pro 2. adlink-id="converly-119" data-adlink-host="insta360.com" data-adlink-original="https://www.insta360.com/sal/ace-pro-2?utm_term= INRSGD7ZP82">Ace Pro 2, because Ace Pro 2's image performance in low-light conditions is even better than that of the Panorama X5. Ace Pro 2 is a must-have accessory for bikers who want to take visually stunning night rides.

Heavy Duty Clamp

When riding, the Ace Pro 2 needs a heavy-duty clamp to mount securely to the handlebars. This clamp is also compatible with 360° cameras like the X4 and is one of the most useful accessories for motorcyclists who want to capture rear-view footage. True to its name, the clamp is extremely sturdy, so you don’t have to worry about it breaking (laughs).

マウントからAce Proを取り外す様子

The Ace Pro 2 is especially appealing to motorcyclists thanks to its one-touch installation and quick-release design. Whether you’re making a short roadside stop or pausing at a convenience store, there’s no need to fuss with screws—saving both time and effort. This heavy-duty clamp comes as part of a motorcycle photo kit, along with an adhesive base, making it the preferred setup for many riders.

If you don't have a mounting tool handy, we recommend getting the Motorcycle Accessory Kit. In addition to the heavy-duty clamps, the kit also includes an adhesive bracket and mounting tool. Simply attach the bracket to your motorcycle's gas tank or other flat surface and you're ready to shoot.

Helmet chinmount

ヘルメット顎マウント

There are many ways to mount an action camera on a helmet, but users often worry about the mount loosening or falling off. This chin mount effectively addresses two long-standing concerns for action camera enthusiasts—risk of falling and sticky residue. It features a Velcro strap design that is both secure and stable, without leaving hard-to-remove adhesive on your helmet.

In actual use, it proved even more stable than expected. The mounted field of view sits just ±1.2 cm from eye level, making it the helmet accessory that most closely matches the human eye’s perspective. To further enhance your shooting experience and easily keep track of the great footage you capture while riding, it’s highly recommended to pair it with a GPS smart remote control.

Neck Bracket

If you want to record first-person POV footage of your ride, a neck mount is a must-have accessory.

Helmet Accessories

The Ace Pro 2 can be mounted on the side or top of the helmet using the helmet accessory bracket.

Heavy Duty Clamp

While the previously introduced "Heavy Duty Clamp" can only be attached to thicker tubes such as handlebars, this "Rearview Mirror Mount" is especially useful when there is a lack of space for mounting, such as on the side tubes of motorcycles or bicycles.

GPS Remote Control

GPSプレビューリモコン

It’s a fantastic accessory that makes monitoring your action camera’s recording perspective as effortless as glancing at your Apple Watch.

The Ace Pro 2 GPS smart remote features full remote-control functionality, making it especially useful for cameras mounted out of your line of sight—such as when using a helmet chin mount to capture riding footage. Even while on the move, you can adjust the shooting angle at any time, ensuring precise framing and effectively reducing the chances of wasted footage.

ND Filter Set

This set of four ND filters—ND8, ND16, ND32, and Polarized (PL)—is an essential accessory for recording rides, offering the flexibility to handle a wide range of lighting conditions with ease.

Sometimes I wonder why we use ND filters to darken a scene. In fact, reducing the light entering the lens allows you to lower the shutter speed when filming motorcycle rides, creating a stronger sense of speed and dynamic motion blur.

Although the Ace Pro / Ace Pro 2 already features an excellent "Motion ND" function, ND filters remain essential for precise shutter speed control in specific scenes. Additionally, these filters help create richer, more layered lighting effects, adding cinematic style and depth to your shots.

Here’s a tip: I personally recommend using an ND filter when photographing waterfalls or clouds.

During long rides, there’s no need to keep pulling out your phone; you can easily switch camera views on the go.

Ace Pro 2 Diving Accessories

Dive Case and Floating Hand Grip

If you plan to shoot underwater with the Ace Pro 2, the must-have accessories are the Dive Case and the Floating Hand Grip. With the Dive Case, the Ace Pro 2 can go as deep as 60 meters.
