Looking for a 360 degree action camera. Can anybody help me source one?

Yo!

I'm looking for a 360 degree camera like the Kodak PIXPRO SP360.
But I can't seem to find anyone local that has it.
*It is a camera that records 360 degrees at the same time...not a swivel or rotating camera. And it's mobile*
I'm going to use it to record virtual reality videos.

Please don't suggest wantitall.co.za. Their prices are beyond inflated.

Try the go pro route might be cheaper

One option is the Ricoh Theta S.

It is unlikely to be in the shops, but the local Pentax agent tends to be happy to bring in these sorts of things if you ask.

Did you come right with a 360 degree camera?

I'm doing a trip up to Botswana next week. I want to take a 360 with to catch some virtual safari footage.

Any one out there with one, please PM me. I'm happy to rent the gear. Anyone know anyone with one?

Saw one of these in action when I was at Killarney last weekend. Pity they are only available in the USA at the moment.

HI All

They will be available in SA soon. Unfortunately certification on the product itself must be done by law and this unfortunately is the reason many products launched overseas takes so long before we get them.

ODP is taking pre-orders on the Nikon 360 action camera.

I have been thinking about getting one also. 360 videos for Youtube and VR. But need fibre for the uploads.

If you have ever owned Nikon gear you will no longer be surprised with their prices.

Ya apparently the local Nikon distribution co rips everyone a new one because they can, sad.
