GoPro Reveals ‘Omni’ Camera Rig for 360° and VR Action Sports Video

Do we want this? Other Sportcam can do it with a single camera, why need 6 GoPro?

I think you meant this link.

On yesterday's Pond5 Twitter post they talked about getting into the 360 VR world of video. So maybe so.

Your link is dead, Jake. Anyway, I looked this camera up and they are preselling it without specs and without demo clips.

This little camera is pretty cool. But at $1700 or when it ships of over $3k I don't think I'll invest in that just yet.
It could turn out to be the next 3d craze.

Looks like intriguing camera for internet based low quality streaming. For high quality 360 video, 6 gopros are much better.

@ Jake,

I will hold on a bit. Too risky to jump into the water yet!!

@ Wideweb

If you use 4 GoPro 4K camera, quality will be good, but is there any customer to buy and in what price?

Pat, that's what I said. This could be something or it could be another 3D thing that doesn't go anywhere.
I'm not jumping in that water yet. :)
Next year this 360 camera technology will be half or less the price it is today with better quality equipment.

GoPro is missing lot of other things, what about 4K 60fps? It is more need than this toy things VR !! IMO

GoPro share price is 12.70, and Shutterstock is 40.

You might be right, but this is "the wave of the future..."
I am not waiting for next year...

Forget about streaming 4K footage. Remember how much time it takes to upload a 4K clip...

Pat, quality will not be good with automatic stitching. Trust me.
Let's wait for demo clips and actual specs.
