    I got the Gear 360 2017 a long time ago, back in April 2017, but I didn't feel like making a review about it because I felt it was inferior to other cameras. 🤔 But now that it has stabilization, and with its insanely low price, it has rocketed to the top of the charts, for the best entry-level 360 camera in my opinion! 😮 That's why I spent a loooooot of time to make this video (it took me more than 2 weeks to finish it, as you can see from the intro! 😁
    Enjoy it and if you know anyone who like to take photos and videos, especially parents with kids, please share it with them -- you can make a difference in their life! Best regards, Mic

      hi Michael, which app did you used for the effects ?

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад +2

      Hi Ed! When you say effects, you mean like panning, tiny planet, etc.? I used GoPro VR Reframe effect in Adobe Premiere. It's possible to do the same thing on Insta360 Studio but I didn't want to have to export to insta360 studio first. Also while staying in Premiere, it's easier to coordinate with other effects, like timing it with the music. Best regards, Mic

    I've had a Quest 2 now for about 3 years, but I've only just picked up a Samsung Gear360 camera for immersive 360 shots for £35 in the UK, as my first choice, the Vuze XR is still £300 4 years on with it having both 360 mode and flip dual lenses for 3D. Otherwise, having lots of fun with the Gear360 at the moment. Desktop app from Sep 2018 now has stabilisation stitching, just missing the alternative 360 modes such as small planet view, which whilst phone app has it, phone app is no longer available on Play or Galaxy store and has to be installed as an apk (I luckily had an old J3 kicking around). So still working a few quirks out, otherwise, putting these videos directly onto the Quest 2, it's great being able to relive moments as if you're there, seeing everyone's reactions in fantastic detail.

      Congrats Samiby! And I'm glad the desktop app now has stabilization. If you're shooting for Quest 2, you might also be interested in the Qoocam Ego. It's only 3D not VR180, but it's much more detailed. You can watch my review in 3D on Quest 2 here: ruclips.net/video/bpx2DYjpIH0/видео.html

    Great video. Sounds like me - I have a DLSR and have taken what I think are amazing, high quality pictures but when I look back, I am not in them and the camera is a chore to carry with all the other items you need for a day out. I've been using the phone (S9+) as it is good enough and plan to add the gear 360 for cycle commuting safety (sadly needed) and holidays. Your video was very useful - thanks

    I loved my OG gear 360 and I’ve recommended the 2017 model to loads of people. I use the xiaomi at the moment but I think for most people using a 360 camera on holidays etc the gear 360 2017 is amazing for the price.
    I actually miss shooting action cam style with the xiaomi. People using the gear 360 have some great shooting opportunities especially with the single lens option.

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks Calum! yes the 2017 is a really good deal now that it has stabilization. The issue is whether the workflow is acceptable or not. if it is not, i think mi sphere is a good alternative if you have windows. Re single lens mode, you can crop or use insta360 studio to convert the xiaomi 360 into non-360, with panning and very good stabilization. :)

      I really wanted to use insta 360 studio but my Mac mini is old and slow. I’m using an iPad Pro recently but there’s a lot that you can’t get on the App Store. I’m going to do some mobile filming in Greece this month and edit on Luna fusion ( for the first time ). But as for 360 video I’ll end up editing normal 360 video on Lumafusion as it doesn’t do the insta 360 cropped image tracking that I crave so much.
      Very happy with the xiaomi though for photos. Using the xiaomi selfie stick is very easy for most use. Also got the extra long telesin selfie stick with the mini manfrotto tripod for more set up shots. I’m not going to get the Bluetooth remote for the xiaomi though as it seems too expensive for something I don’t really need.
      The video of you and Ben uploaded recently discussing things you’d like on a 360 camera looked amazing. The fusion is a fantastic camera. But for most of us I think it’s probably a bit too much.
      Keep up the fantastic work. Thanks for all the advice you give 👍🏻

    Oh my! I had no idea they updated it to include stabilisation! I've owned since it was released and have captured so many great memories.

    • @RXP91
      @RXP91 6 лет назад +1

      360Rumors.com I won't even bother taking that many photos because the videos are just as sharp! Do you find that the image quality of an extracted still from a video is on par with the photo? I'm assuming it'll have more compression artifacts due to h264 compression over jpeg. Also your intro is EXACTLY why I love 360 shooting. You get to live in the moment and not mess around with tech.

    • @RXP91
      @RXP91 6 лет назад +1

      And I just checked my 360 app. No firmware update :(
      Edit: it's an app update rather than firmware. Stabilisation is there so I can get all my old videos processed. How amazing!

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад

      Hi RXP91! The 360 framegrabs from the video are indeed sharp, but the photos are sharper. Another important factor is that with photos, you can shoot in Landscape HDR which is a true multi-shot 360 photo with excellent dynamic range. But most of the time, video will be more useful. Just a note of caution: the gear 360 stitches videos very slowly, so it will be better to shoot short clips of around 30 secs to 1 min. Best regards, mic

I and searching for a good camera that will link to my Samsung Note 9, but Gopro does not...so the only camera I found so far is the gear 360....I just don't want a 360 camera. Hopefully Samsung will come out with a good quality action camera soon, one that'll link to my phone. Thank you for sharing your awesome video, I truly enjoyed watching it!

      Thanks buddy! I have a GoPro Fusion and it has a very hard time connecting to my Samsung S10+ or iPhone 7. But the GoPro MAX seems to connect without too much problems. If you want a non-360 camera, check out the Insta360 One R. It is a modular camera that can convert from a 360 camera to a non-360 camera, an invisible drone camera, or a 1-inch sensor cam. Here is a comparison with GoPro: ruclips.net/video/9TEHnHAwIeo/видео.html

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад

      Hi Luiz, don't worry I understand your English :) Before you edit, you must stitch the photos together. To do that, you need the Gear 360 phone app, or the Gear 360 app for MacZ www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00066650/
      To stitch in the phone app or desktop app, just open the photo or video and in the phone app, click on 'download' or in the desktop app, just open the photo or video.
      After the photo or video is stitched, then you can edit. For photo, I recommend using Google Photos to edit. For video, you can use Virb Edit, a free editor that can edit 360 video. Or you can edit on the phone with Veer Editor, Collect 360, or V360 (they are all free editors for 360 video).
      If you want to convert 360 photo into non-360 photo where you control the view, use Theta+. Here is my tutorial: ruclips.net/video/q-t-fM0feio/видео.html
      If you want to convert 360 video into non-360 video where you control the view, use Insta360 Studio. here is my tutorial: ruclips.net/video/Syvozms2egk/видео.html

    Watching this in 2021, awesome review!! I found one of these for 75USD and I'm considering buying it. I'm impressed by the stabilization you get from the app, do you know if by now there's an option to achieve a similar result from a desktop software?

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  3 года назад +1

      Thanks David! AFAIK, The desktop app hasn't been updated to add the same stabilization we get in the app, so if you want this stabilization, then you need to be sure your phone works with the app. I also need to caution you that the Gear 360 app takes a very long time to render videos. If you want an affordable 360 camera that will be easier to work with, you may be interested in Qoocam Fun, which is around $169 but it must be attached to a phone to work. You might also still be able to find the Mi Sphere on Aliexpress (it has similar stabilization as the gear 360): ruclips.net/video/Q2qRn7RdcVM/видео.html If budget allows, you can try to look for a used Insta360 One X, or even Insta360 One. They do cost more, but they will be much less frustrating to use compared to a Gear 360.

    Hi
    Great video 👌👍👏👏
    I was originally going to get Samsung gear 360 2017 but the more reviews I watched more my appetite grown and I thought insta360 one will be the best all round camera , now that I watched this review I have dilemma should I go for Samsung or insta360 one which is 3x more expensive.
    Is the insta360 one image quality that much better.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks MOBYDICKSS and great question! First issue is compatibility: do you have a phone that is compatible with Samsung Gear 360 2017? If yes then Gear 360 2017 and Insta360 have somewhat similar image quality. You have to decide if these benefits are worth getting the Insta360 One:
      1. Far better stabilization. You can also choose between full stabilization and direction hold (great for hyperlapses).
      2. Much faster stitching. Gear 360 stitching is quite slow and can crash with longer videos. Stitching on Insta360 One is not so fast but it's much faster than Gear 360.
      3. You can stitch on a desktop and get great stabilization. On Gear 360 you have to stitch on your phone to get stabilization. If you have to stitch many videos this is very inconvenient and will fill up your phone.
      4. Much better app for editing on mobile. Insta360 One's app is the best editor for Freecapture / overcapture style video.
      5. Hyperlapse.
      6. Bullet time.
      On the downside, Insta360 One's wireless mode does not have live preview (to get live preview you need to attach it to your phone).
      BTW this week there's a special promo. You can get Insta360 One with 20% discount and free bullet time handle and invisible selfie stick here: 360rumors.com/2018/07/looking-vacation-camera-insta360-one-20-off-free-invisible-selfie-stick-bullet-time.html
      In summary, the insta360 one's key additional benefits are stabilization and usability. You'll have to decide whether those are worth the extra $200 (or $140 during promo period).
      Check out my Insta360 One stabilization demo (if you haven't already): ruclips.net/video/6weD4EeyLVs/видео.html
      I hope this helps!

    I have a question about editting. I wish to film 360 but only show the scenes I want, in essence a virtual camera fly-through. Is this possible ? I would like to take the appropriate views and de-fisheye them to give a normal 16:9 (or whatever) format. An example would be on a boat where you are watching some fishing. Once a fish is caught I would like to show that action of it being landed and released. I would only want to focus on the area that is of interest.

      Hi Gazza-usa. Yes that technique is called overcapture. You can do that with Insta360 Studio, a free software. First, stitch the Gear 360 video on your phone. Then copy the files to your hard drive and open them in Insta360 Studio. Here is a tutorial: ruclips.net/video/oF0FnivMjGw/видео.html

    Really learned a lot from this video yet I still have questions regarding the different modes and when they are needed. I can't tell if it is still recording or not. Would love more information on what setting works better when. ALso,is it recording on my phone's memory or on the memory card in the 360 gear camera? How much space or video time is available? Sorry, for all these questions but I bought this for work to do virtual tours in real estate and can't afford to make mistakes. Any response to any questions would be appreciated.

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  5 лет назад

      Thanks Diana. Here are some responses:
      1.Recording or not: look at the LED lights around the lens. If it's flashing red, it's still recording.
      2. Which modes to use:
      Photo for general photos
      Landscape HDR if you have the Gear 360 stationary on a tripod and want higher dynamic range (wider range of highlights and shadows)
      Video for general videos
      Time lapse - for time lapse videos
      3. Recording time: see the LCD. It will tell you how many photos are left or how many minutes are left.
      4. For virtual tours, I recommend using a lightstand and then using the Landscape HDR mode. Virtual tour topics are tagged here 360rumors.com/category/virtual-tours

Basically when you capture a photo or video with the Gear 360 2017, it is saved into the camera's micro SD card. From there you can connect the Gear 360 to your phone wirelessly using the Gear 360 app. Then the gear 360 app will stitch the photos and videos and add stabilization. then you can transfer the files to your desktop, or upload them to your preferred virtual platform.

    Very nice video, btw, I am a Gear360 2017 owner since the past year and I didn´t want to update the firmware to the newest version because I was afraid that something started to work wrong and because the Samsung support is quite bad for this device, I didn´t take that risk, but after seeing your video, I will consider the update because the stabilization looks good enough for a cheaper camera, in fact, I only took 360 photos with my camera because the videos looked quite unstable all the time. BTW, do you think this camera will be in the market for a while? or do you think that samsung will release a new version this year?. Thanks for you video.

      Thank you very much Jawenw3HL! I think Samsung could create a new camera if they wanted, but my guess is that the sales aren't as good as they hoped, and that's why they've been selling them at crazy low prices. So, unless they have a sudden breakthrough that makes them think that it will for some reason revolutionize the market, i don't think they will make another 360 camera. When the market grows, then i think they will re-enter it then. That's my *guess*.

In the Gallery, tap on the 3 dots on the upper right corner, select settings and turn on "Stabilize". Every video or photo you download from the Gear 360 will be stabilized. I hope this helps!

    Great video. I have been following you for a few weeks since I first learned about the Rylo and the concept of overcapturing and using the Rylo software to easily make flat videos. I LOVE that thought. I have been using the orig Gear forever but don't do much with the videos since I don't know much about editing on my computer. Is there anything within the Samsung app, along with the Gear 2017, that allows you to overcapture and produce normal aspect ration videos like you have here? Or are you still using a desktop application to make these? Again I love your channel... you have gotten me excited about the new projects. I just don't have the cash to buy the Rylo right now. But getting the new G360 might be a good choice. THanks!

      Hi Cha Par. To stitch and stabilize the best way is to use the phone app. If you want to do it on desktop, you can use the included actiondirector for gear 360 to stitch. Then you can add stabilization with powerdirector. ruclips.net/video/HQY9dlqbfNI/видео.html the gear 360 actiondirector has stabilization too but nowhere as good as the stabilization on the app.

    • @360vroomers

      Hi pixxelpusher! I would say the Xiaomi and Gear 360 have their own advantages for stabilization. For example, in the roller coaster scene, you could see that the virtual camera would move suddenly every few seconds. On the other hand, Xiaomi would face a constant direction, making it easier to key frame. Anyway i will post a stabilization comparison!

      Hi Stef! For this video I used Premiere, and for the overcapture effects, I used the free Gopro VR plugin 360rumors.com/2017/11/download-gopro-vr-reframe-360-video-plugins-free.html But it is also possible to do overcapture effects on Insta360 Studio ruclips.net/video/Syvozms2egk/видео.html You can also do it on most video editors with 360 capability such as Magix: ruclips.net/video/mpfzBjJXPdg/видео.html
      Rylo is a special case because the videos are not 2:1 (they are 16:9), so Insta360 Studio won't work unless you first convert it to 2:1 ratio using a video editor.
      To use Rylo's tracking, do the tracking in the app first, then export it as a video. You can then incorporate that into your main video. That's the approach I used for this Rylo video: ruclips.net/video/wDLIF5uzbmo/видео.html

      As for the seamline being shaky, yes that's a characteristic of the gear 360 2017 because it constantly readjusts the stitch line.
      The solution in both cases is the same: avoid putting anything important in the stitch line (especially not faces :D ).

    Thanks so much Mic! I now know the second 360 camera to purchase. One question though: Do you know of any metadata code which can implement the "Zoom" function on 360 images & video like Google street view? It would great to have both rotate and zoom, it adds much more interest for the viewer. Keep up the great work. Take Care

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад

      Thanks Antonio! 😀 Great question! Yes it is possible to change field of view on Street View. Just change the fov parameter developers.google.com/maps/documentation/streetview/intro
      Best regards,
      Mic

    • @AntonioTonyNewtonMusic
      @AntonioTonyNewtonMusic 6 лет назад +1

      Hi Mic, perhaps there is a misunderstanding. I don't mean change the fov on streetview because there is already a +/- for zooming. I am referring to adding a fov zoom parameter to standard gear 360 images/videos by modifying the metadata. 2. What metadata editor do you recommend for this implementation? Thanks so much!

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад

      Hi Antonio. Yes i think i understood you. The fov parameter is something you can add to the url to specify the default fov in street view. Best regards, mic

    • @AntonioTonyNewtonMusic
      @AntonioTonyNewtonMusic 6 лет назад +1

      I am not understanding! I am not using streetview. Also it seems you need to use the streetview API as well I could not find the fov parameter at your link or in the support section. I don't think you can change the zoom level with "-/+" with a "default" parameter. And actually on the streetview page it also contains a hotspot linker which could also be very useful for all of us which neither the zoom or hotspot parameters are available for normal 360 image/video users. (Tip) search a location in Chrome using Google maps and it will display a streetview pano image with hotspots and zoom functions. I only discovered this because I needed to find a location in my city Los Angels and this is how it displayed the image of the location.

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад

      Oh, you're not using street view. OK. The Photosphere metadata specification has a parameter for specifying the fov. But whether or not that parameter is actually used depends on the player that you use.
      One easy way to control fov without having to edit the metadata is by using a 360 photo sharing service that lets the photographer set the FOV with a slider, such as Facebook or Kuula. Best regards, Mic

  • @sickpuppy8077
    @sickpuppy8077 6 лет назад +1

    Hey man, Great video! And now I'm sorry for my long comment here, but I hope you read it through and can give me some answers..
    And btw thank you alot, I now think I know what I have to buy..!
    I'm a gear/tech-head and are spending too much money on gear(not just camera, gear of all kinds) simply because I think it's fun to explore new things and because I cant really find what siuts me the best..
    That has led me to the place I am today, owning two Nikon DSLR's with quite a few lenses, I got the Gopro 6 black with Feiyu-Tech G5 gimbal, Canon G7X mkii, Samsung S9+ just to mention the most important photo-related stuff.. And I forgot that I've backed the viral LITE on Indiegogo that I'm waiting for..
    The reason I thank you is that all this stuff I got, I keep buying because I want to capture for instance my driving with the RC-car on my own.. I Dont want to need another person to film or to drive my car, I want it to be a one man-operation.
    My original plan was off course using the GoPro with the Gimbal, and that works kind of good, but I must always keep track of where I drive and what direction I face the camera.
    I've also planned mounting both the gopro and G7X on the viral LITE that I'm waiting for, and that's the thing I until I watched this video had the highest hopes for..
    But now, after watching this video.. I am kind of thinking that I may just throw away the Gopro and the G7X and just buy the Gear 360 2017 and mount that to the viral LITE, or even when walking on the side of the RC I may just care about the hight of the lens and choose the caption afterwards, because now I cant miss the shots anymore..!?
    Do you agree with me on this one?
    And btw, lots of other users are mac-users who talks trash about the gear 360 because it got the best support on the Samsung devices. And even if I have been thinking about the gopro fusion I believe that camera is best suited for mac-users, am I right?
    And since I allready got the S9+ I might as well pick the camera that's paired best with these phones, agree?
    And last of all(I'm really sorry for the long post, I wouldn't hold it against you if you dont care to answer this mess(also sorry for my english, I come from Norway and english is not my native language..)), if you dont take the platform-issues(Samsung vs Apple ++), is the Gear 360 2017 still a good choice? Or is it just the best one for android and if you operate in all the available platforms, would the fusion kill the gear by how much..?
    Cudos if you've made it to the end, and if I see an answer to this I'll be very stoked. :)
    BTW: U got a subscriber from Norway tonight, hehe.. Cheers!

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад +1

      Hey there SiCkPuPPy! Thanks for subscribing buddy!
      I love the concept of the Wiral Lite! I backed it too!
      Yes you are correct -- you can use a stabilized 360 camera on the Wiral lite and you won't have to worry about what direction the camera is facing! Here's the limit: 360 cameras have less resolution than an action camera. So you can't be very far away or else you won't see much detail. The distance that you can use depends on the amount of detail of the camera.
      Gear 360 2017 has "good" level of detail. It will do an OK job, although it is not the most detailed. The other issue is that you need to stitch on the phone in order to get the best stabilization.
      If you want more detail, the consumer 360 camera with the highest level of detail right now is GoPro Fusion. Here is my review ruclips.net/video/3IB_WZurcls/видео.html Fusion can be used on both Windows and Mac, but you need a dedicated graphics card, such as GTX 1050 Ti. If you don't have a dedicated GPU then you can't use Fusion.
      Next to the Fusion in level of detail is Yi 360 VR. ruclips.net/video/bn1n1287L-0/видео.html But Yi 360 VR has no Mac desktop stitcher.
      Next in level of video detail are Ricoh Theta V and Rylo (only in daylight -- in shadows it is not so good).
      Then next are Insta360 One, Xiaomi Mi Sphere, Garmin Virb 360, and Samsung Gear 360 2017. They are similar in detail.
      I will have a comparison between these and other 360 cameras, including their stabilization performance in the next few weeks.
      Best regards,
      Mic

    • @sickpuppy8077
      @sickpuppy8077 6 лет назад +1

      Thank you for a very informative reply, I will for sure look out for the comparison video.
      I see, how close to the camera do you have to be to get a decent picture quality? With the RC I guess you almost need to be next to it to get something useful then..
      Aww, and I was hoping this resolved all my problems! hehe.. :)
      I will do a bit more reading and watching more of your videos before buying another camera..
      BTW: Here in norway the Gear 360 costs more than $400 from the retail shops!

    • @360vroomers
      @360vroomers  6 лет назад +1

      Hi SickPuppy. you can check out the opening scene in my video. I was close to the camera, so i'm detailed enough. The crowd is farther, so it is less detailed. The RC is smaller so you need to take that into account as well. That can give you an idea of how far away you can be. i hope this helps! best regards, mic

You did an awesome job hiding the selfie stick. So much better on playback. Also, the quality of 360 is terrible. Wished there was a way to do 180deg with higher quality using this camera.

      Hi Flanegan B. This is normal for the Gear 360 2017. Actually it is constantly adjusting the stitching distance. It looks like wobble or warping when objects cross the stitch line near the camera. The solution is to be aware of the stitch line and avoid putting anything important in the stitch line. One way to visualize it is to imagine your Gear 360 is a giant fan. If the fan is going to hit you or your subject, then you're in the stitch line. Reposition the Gear 360 to avoid hitting anyone with your giant fan.

    good review. as someone who thinks industrial civilization will inevitably collapse very soon, not to mention the criminal and irreparable damage humans are doing to other species and the planet, i think you were wrong to have children though. if they survive to adulthood they will look back at your footage and wonder how you were all so blase about the destruction you were causing
