Capturing those precious moments with your camera or smartphone just became old school. 360-degree photos and videos is the next ‘in thing’ in the world of photography. No doubt 360-degree photo was available since a few years and any smartphone with the camera feature or desktop PC software with a bunch of photos and videos could do the trick. However, times have changed. You don’t need to do any processing, editing or anything else to get those beautiful moments captured on 360-degrees.
Samsung had recently launched their 360-degree camera (unveiled at the MWC in February in 2016), which can capture photos and videos in 360-degrees in an instant. The videos are processed on the camera itself and sent to your smartphone using the Wi-Fi path.
The Samsung Gear 360 is a unique, yet simple camera with a ‘big eye’. The Gear 360 uses two cameras with a 180-degree lens each, mounted on opposite sides of the body. It looks more like a big eyeball. You can attach a handle to it, which also doubles as a simple tripod for making it stand. Pair it with yur smartphone using the NFC feature and the camera can transmit the videos and photos to your smartphone. The camera houses a rechargeable battery and a microSD card slot to store all your captured moments. Once paired, simply shoot, save and share with your smartphone.
Check out the demo video by Samsung which shows you how simple it is to use the camera.
