Insta360 GO 2 - small cam for big water sports action?
The GO 2 model from camera manufacturer Insta360 is said to be the "smallest, most powerful action cam in the world".

Weighing just under 26 grams and only 53 millimetres long, the camera can either be attached to metal objects using a built-in magnet or to a helmet or sports equipment using a bracket - a set with standard mounting adapters is available for 21.99 euros. The showpiece for video clips is said to be the stabilisation mode, which converts even shaky descents on a mountain bike or jumps on the water into wobble-free clips.

You can get a first impression of the video quality in the manufacturer's product clip.

Thanks to high-resolution time-lapse and slow-motion recordings, you can review your surfing session in all its variations afterwards. An additional water housing is not necessary, at least for normal water sports use, as the Insta360 GO 2, which is available from €319.99, is waterproof to a depth of four metres.

We have already ordered a test sample and will be presenting the cam in wing use here on the website shortly.
