Simple and solid essentially sums up this action camera. The sleek design makes it a perfect option for side mounting on a helmet, and with a huge array of mounts available, attaching it to almost anything isn’t difficult. Drift Ghost XL has a maximum frame rate of 60fps which is compatible with 720p and WVGA resolutions only.

This mode allows you to overwrite old files when the memory card is full. A file recorded in when events detection is on will not be overwritten.

However, to get the best from this camera, don’t shoot in too bright areas. Cloudy weather works perfect for me and I recommend that to anyone. Be sure to test out your preferred setting before mounting your camera because a high ISO can sometimes result in grainy footage. Clone Mode The Ghost XL camera has a maximum video resolution of 1080p at 30 frames per second. This means that it can shoot videos at full HD.

This mode allows you to use your camera to take several still images at a set interval of time with a specific rate. The Drift Ghost XL is a good camera for riders out there. I am impressed by the inclusion of new features like the Event Detection mode that I found useful. The one downfall is the resolution and framerate options. At 4K, the maximum framerate is 30fps, ok for static and slow movement but not great for high-speed action. 2.7K at 60fps is very decent, and the 1080p 60fps is also superb with the option to extend to 120fps. It’s a shame the camera doesn’t extend the framerate to 4K at 60fps, but that’s the only real fault I can find with this otherwise excellent camera.

Alongside that feature, there’s also the ability to shoot at 4K@30fps, 2.7K@60fps, and 1080p@120fps. There are also no in-built story modes or many other fancy features or modules that we have come to expect from GoPro or Insta360; the Drift Ghost XL Pro is just a pure no-fuss action camera.

However, you will easily notice that the footage at night becomes a bit grainy. Not as much as the Ghost X model but still, Drift should put in a lot of work to come up with a dedicated night mode.

HOW-TO VIDEO TUTORIALS

When it comes to using the Drift Ghost XL is one of my favourite cameras. It’s easy to understand and operate, and most importantly, the quality of the video matches the quality of use. The Ghost XL provides 3 options to choose from in the diagonal field of view. This is similar to what we got in the X model. The camera only offers a JPEG file format for saving photos. You do not get a RAW option which might be a deal-breaker to some especially if you intend to do a lot of post-editing to your photos. Photo Quality Drift Innovation claims that the battery can last for nine hours straight recording with full HD. I tested that out and I was impressed with the outcome. The mono microphone on the XL is not the best out there for the price range, I believe Drift is working on making the internal microphone better. I like the inclusion of an external microphone port.
