360 camera - films in 360 degrees

The day before yesterday it was released, the new 360 camera from Nikon. Samsung also has a 360 camera that was released not so long ago, but the model from Nikon seems to be a little bit sharper in some respects. Guess who went shopping for an early Christmas present for ourselves yesterday!

What is a 360 camera?

The point of a 360 camera is that it captures everything around you. It has a lens in each direction and combines everything into a single image. You can film with the camera and get a film that is displayed in 360 degrees.

This means, if you are watching the film on an iPad, you can turn the iPad and see what is to the left or right of what you first saw. If you are watching the film on a computer, you can use your mouse to move to the right or left of the image. And - if you're watching the film with VR glasses - you'll feel like you're crawling inside. unnecessarily the film and are on site. Hello and welcome to the future!

Where can you watch 360 films?

So far, it's primarily possible to watch 360 films on YouTube and Facebook. Over time, more and more sites will probably support the new technology, but the giants are leading the way.

We, who have a travel blog, hope to be able to show films in this format in the future, but for now we can show our films on our Facebook page and on our relatively new Youtube channel.

Key Mission 360

So we got the Key Mission 360 camera from Nikon and Peter is as happy as a child on Christmas Eve, haha. In addition to the fact that this camera can film in 360 degrees, you can also use it under water. Lots of exciting possibilities!

We are of course planning to film here in the marina and on our various trips. Among other things, we have a plan to attach the camera to the helmet on the ski slope in the Alps in January. Weeehooo! Hope you join us on our new adventures!
