The same photo as above, but stitched properly! We can use this everywhere. The biggest problem with the copy-to-computer method is that the Gear360 records your photos and videos as two circular images on a black background. It turns out that you can, but there’s a catch. So why not just pop out the SD card and connect to your laptop? After all, every single digital camera ever invented works this way.
The only real hurdle lies in getting the files off the camera onto your computer. The accompanying app is nice but not necessary if you have a computer, which is the fastest and easiest way to process 360 footage in any case. But it’s perfectly usable without the app, with a decent onboard interface that you’ll probably end up using when you’re actually shooting footage anyway. The only issue? It’s advertised to work with Samsung Galaxy smartphones. The newer Gear 360 actually has lower camera resolution (14.9 megapixels). This eyeball-shaped device sports one of the highest resolution 360 cameras (25.9 megapixels) available in the sub-$500 consumer 360 camera segment while being in the lowest price tier. A 25.9MP 360 camera from Samsung for under $100 new? It’s true! There are plenty of these cameras available at online retailers.
