Immersive 360 to me is like drones…huh, interesting, but I need to see more examples to get excited and maybe wanna try and be creative with the tech.
My opinion on drones just changed with the latest from DJI (shared on our sister site, The Mirrorless Pro), and this crazy rig…
Four Sony a7S II Mirrorless Cameras, each with a Rokinon 8mm Fisheye lens.
That the designers thought of creating the rig is impressive enough. It costs about $15K with their software license and includes
- Four (4) Sony a7S II Mirrorless Cameras
- Four (4) Rokinon 8mm F2.8 UMC Fisheye II (Black) Fixed Lens for Sony E-Mount (NEX) Cameras, with hoods removed
- One (1) Excalibur Camera Rig / Holder
- One Remote Control system for push-button start/stop recording
Ignore the Chariots of Fire soundtrack, and check the immersion.
