![]() Second in line, is Ricoh’s precursory camera the RICOH THETA S. Overall, we think that the RICOH THETA V is a really exciting, top range product. You can also shoot using the ultra-high shutter speed of up to 1/25000 seconds. ![]() Now you can take pictures at an interval of four seconds. The minimum interval for those using the interval shooting feature has been reduced by about half the time of previous models. Retailing for £399.99, the THETA V seems to have the whole package, as many people can agree that the THETA S’s video quality was its main flaw, but Ricoh seem to have fixed any previous qualms with this new THETA V. You will now have the ability to display your 360-degree pictures on a TV with a compatible wireless adaptor, allowing you to show off your captures on a large screen. It also uses the same smartphone application, except now transfer speeds are significantly faster. As with the THETA S, the V’s videos can be a maximum of 25 minutes each. If you did want more memory though, it’s worth noting that there is no SD card slot. ![]() ![]() The camera’s internal memory is a generous 19 gigabytes, and this will allow you to take 4,800 images, 40 minutes of 4K video, or 130 minutes of 1080p video. Similarly, waterproof casing is also available from October for those who want to take shots among the fishes! There is also an external microphone available, presumably for use at concerts or sports games etc., which inevitably boasts even more enhanced sound quality. Users will be able to take advantage of the four built-in microphones. What’s more, there is now even better sound quality with the new omnidirectional audio recording functionality. The THETA V will also produce higher definition images, even in low-lit environments. Ricoh tell us that they have “changed the exposure accuracy and white balance algorithm by combining image processing technology”, which according to them, significantly improves the quality of still images and video. These two sensors are also placed very closely together which allows the camera to produce really seamless 360-degree images. We have tested and researched a number of cameras, and after evaluating them on the basis of price, quality, ease of use and other factors, our number one choice (at time of publish) is the RICOH THETA V.Īs compact as their two previous Theta cameras, the THETA V is lightweight and sleek with two 12 megapixel CMOS sensors, capable of 5376 x 2688 images. You can also use phone applications, such as Google's "Street View" (see our FAQ on using your mobile phone to create 360 images HERE ) Hopefully, after further reading you will have sufficient advice to select the one that works the best for you. In this blog, we are looking at today’s range of cameras on offer, and reviewing those which we feel work the most optimally with EyeSp圓60™'s software.Īs EyeSp圓60™ works agnostically with all 360-degree cameras, so long as the outputted photograph is 2:1 and Equirectangular in shape (width twice the height), it doesn’t matter which camera you choose to use.
