Conveniently, Tom Pagut, SproutVideo\u2019s customer success lead, has been using 360 cameras for years. In this video, Tom and Nick discuss his specific use case, and how others could benefit from a 360 camera.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:html -->\n<iframe class=\"sproutvideo-player\" src=\"https:\/\/videos.sproutvideo.com\/embed\/ac9ddfb21c18e0c225\/ecaa7e23468a38b6?playerTheme=dark&amp;playerColor=4c78ae\" width=\"630\" height=\"354\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<!-- \/wp:html -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>History of 360&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Before modern-day 360 cameras, typically the only way you could create an immersive experience was by using several cameras mounted on a vehicle to capture video in every outward direction. Then, you could project them onto different screens in a circle around an audience to create a full experience. This technique was called <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Circle-Vision_360%C2%B0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Circle-Vision 360 (opens in a new tab)\">Circle-Vision 360<\/a>, a method that the Walt Disney Company refined back in the 50s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Fast forward to the 90s and early 2000s with improved technology and editing software, we began to see a small subset of earlier adopters utilizing 360 videos to fully immerse their audience. Also around this time, news outlets began integrating it into their programming, generally to show a full view of an area, like the wreckage of Katrina in 2008 for example.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Evolution of 360 Cameras<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Fast forward to the mid-2010s, and 360 video was on the rise again. Facebook and YouTube introduced support for 360-degree playback in 2015, which corresponded with the rise of 360 consumer-level gear.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Camera Rigs<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>It was around this time that technology started making the process much simpler. For a while, the best way to achieve this look was just improving upon the circle-vision method by creating a rig that could hold multiple cameras in a circle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>One of the most famous rigs was the <a href=\"https:\/\/gopro.com\/en\/us\/news\/omni-is-here\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GoPro Omni<\/a>. This device would sync six GoPro\u2019s together to allow users to create a full 360-degree video. Since then, companies have created spherical devices with cameras built-in for professional and consumer use.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A huge drawback of this method was portability and price. In some cases, you would need 6 cameras to fill out the rig, not something most people have.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>360 Cameras<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>However, around the same time these rigs were introduced, full-on 360 consumer-grade cameras broke into the market. Typically these cameras featured two ultra-wide or fisheye lenses back-to-back. This allows for each camera to capture video at an angle just over 180-degrees, which would then be stitched together to create a 360-degree object using software baked into the camera.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Today, you\u2019ll find a whole host of different companies with their own iteration of the modern 360 camera. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"GoPro (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/gopro.com\/en\/us\/\" target=\"_blank\">GoPro<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta360.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Insta360 (opens in a new tab)\">Insta360<\/a> are two of the biggest in the field, but companies like Samsung, Ricoh, Vuze, and even Garmin have created 360 cameras at one point.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Hype Fallout<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Around the time these devices were released, you probably saw 360 and virtual reality video just about everywhere. <a href=\"https:\/\/sproutvideo.com\/blog\/four-brands-creating-epic-experiences-with-360-video.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Big brands were incorporating it into their marketing (opens in a new tab)\">Big brands were incorporating it into their marketing<\/a>, content creators were making full videos with it, even the average person could pick up a phone adapter and upload a 360 video to Facebook. Sadly, before long, the razzle-dazzle wore off, and 360 videos sort of vanished from the main stage. Big brands went back to normal videos and people\u2019s patience for scrolling around virtual videos ran thin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>While it\u2019s no longer trendy, there are some more practical uses for 360 cameras that might inspire a purchase in 2020 and beyond.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Getting The Most Out of 360 Video<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>After our discussion with Tom, who uses 360 cameras frequently for electric skateboarding, one main point really stood out. The best use for a 360 camera is not 360 video; it\u2019s flat video.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>It\u2019s the perfect tool to capture everything around you, then crop to show exactly what you want in a flat video. You don\u2019t have to worry about framing your shot, or your subjects. If you\u2019re filming by yourself, that\u2019s pretty major.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Just Capture Everything<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>When 360 first started out, viewers had to scroll around and explore the video on their own. While that was entertaining or useful in some limited applications, all too often, you felt like you were missing the action, the narrative, or both.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Today, it\u2019s best used to capture the world around you and then create a video that stays close to the action. The very nature of the camera will provide you the opportunity to capture all the action, and yourself, without much thought. This makes it perfect for <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"solo filmmakers (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/sproutvideo.com\/blog\/videos\/how-to-film-yourself-for-a-professional-result\" target=\"_blank\">solo filmmakers<\/a>, behind-the-scenes footage, tutorials, and many other applications. With a 360 camera, gone are the days of hoping you got the shot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:quote -->\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>See the Insta360 One X2 in action on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Tom's instagram (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CIU2MEkh0B2\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tom's instagram<\/a>. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<!-- \/wp:quote -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Typically you\u2019ll see 360 cameras being marketed toward action sports enthusiasts because of their versatility, water-resistance, and gimbal-like qualities.

From a mechanic to a baker, or even someone doing a knitting tutorial, this camera is perfect for filming yourself and your subject simultaneously.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Where 360 Cameras Fall Short<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>There are some drawbacks to 360 cameras. While a top-of-the-line model like the <a href=\"https:\/\/store.insta360.com\/product\/one_x2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Insta 360 X2 (opens in a new tab)\">Insta 360 X2<\/a> can record in 5.7K, it can only output in 1080p resolution. This might be okay for social media, but it won\u2019t be suitable for all productions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>In that same vein, since it is capturing footage from two fisheye lenses, there is a much higher chance of distortion depending on the angle you choose to output. Lastly, like any smaller sensor camera, the <a href=\"https:\/\/sproutvideo.com\/blog\/camera-sensors-does-size-matter.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"image quality itself won\u2019t match up to that of a full-frame camera.
