On August 17th, Beijing time, GoPro is known for its reputation in the field of panoramic cameras. With the quality of panoramic cameras, it is natural that quality is high. The high brand marketing ability is also leverage. No, it is with GoPro's 16 enthusiastic panoramas. The camera hasn’t faded yet. Omni’s Omni, another panoramic camera, will begin shipping reservations on August 17. The GoPro panoramic camera comes with six cameras. The kit is priced at $5,000 and includes six Hero 4 Black cameras, an Omni bracket, and hardware and software for shooting and creating 360-degree panoramic VR images.

When we see the price of $ 5,000, we will be surprised first. The price of the six Hero 4 Black cameras is as high as $ 3,000. But when you understand the contents of the Omni package, you will find that for those who are eager to shoot higher quality 360-degree panoramic VR images, Omni is a great starter package.

If you already have the 6 Hero 4 Black cameras you need, you only need to buy a $1,500 Omni Sync Stand — but that doesn't include some device and software licenses.

The highlight of the Omni camera and its difference from other spherical cameras using the GoPro is that the Omni array is equipped with synchronization technology to facilitate post-production stitching. At the same time, Omni cameras can synchronize the settings of each camera, so you only need to set them in the main camera.

The Omni suite also includes the Omni Importer tool, which helps you easily check and edit the 360-degree panorama you shot. In addition, you can obtain permission from Kolor Patching Software to fine-tune and adjust the 360-degree panoramic images you have taken. You can also use Adobe Premiere and After Effects plugins for post-editing.

Although the Omni camera may not be suitable for everyone, the kit can help you start shooting immersive VR images. Compared to other 3D image production products with the same price, Omni suit is undoubtedly a better choice.

So what's in the $5,000 Omni package? The GoPro Omni package includes:

· Authorized license of Kolor patching software
