I wonder what is necessary to happen, that you need a 360º camera to film. Why does the user have to be able to turn the camera in the direction he wants? All that came to my mind at this time was 4.5 minutes of a car wash. I used the Samsung Gear 360 (2017), because it was able to record this in 4K with 24fps. The video was stitched, straightened, and injected (with VR meta data) with the Samsung 360 gear app on a Mac with OS X 10.11.6 That's important info for the gigs that need to know that kind of thing. The camera recorded 1.2 GB, and the stitched version has 3.35 GB file size. I edited it slightly with FCP X, and exported it To YouTube 4K format. Now it has 700 MB. How much of the original quality has been lost? I guess i'll find out when the upload has finished. One thing about a 360 degree VR camera: the photographer is almost always in the picture. I wonder what devices like iPads, or phones are able to download the full 4K video? Try to watch this with your VR headset. It's kinda cool.
