Tools: Specialized Panorama Cameras

Special panorama cameras offer the following advantages:

• Create spherical panorama with one click
• Small, very portable device
• Remote control via mobile phone and tablet
• Some cameras also offer a video function

If we need panoramic photos with movement in the subject, a technique that creates the photo with one click is ideal. This is offered by special panorama cameras equipped with at least two lenses. The Samsung Gear 360 shown above has a front and rear lens. This allows two complete 180-degree photos to be taken simultaneously. If you look at the individual photos, they are circular. They are then calculated by software and you get a spherical panorama. Such tools save a lot of time, they have the downside that you need their fallacies, so you can avoid or live with them.

This photo can then be used with appropriate software in such a way that the viewer can rotate and turn the view in the image. The space can thus be "experienced".

Another advantage is that most special panorama cameras are very small and therefore transportable. For example, it is possible to take pictures inside a car without any problems. The cameras usually have a thread at the bottom so that the device can be mounted on a tripod or on a self-adhesive stick.

Due to its small size and remote control, the camera can be placed in an aviary and suitable photos can be taken. This opens up completely new perspectives.
