Thank you very much to Jim Jensen (Google Photo Sphere Community) for bringing this to my attention! Thanks to Balance for reminding me about Insta360 Pro and Theta V! Thanks to Kuba for reminding me about Orah 4i!
I’m wondering if there is a 360 camera that:
– can be mounted on tripod;
– has RJ45 socket (LAN);
– has realtime 360 video stitching;
– can stream directly to Youtube or any other configured platform in 4k;
– doesn’t cost as much as half of a new SUV 🙂
Any suggestions?
Hi Kuba. AFAIK there is no camera that has all those features for now. Cateye comes close. It has all those features except a lan socket. but it has built in wifi https://360rumors.com/2017/02/cat360-is-fully-spherical-4k-360-camera.html

Thanks Mic, but maybe ORAH camera will cope with my requirements? https://360rumors.com/2016/04/videostitchs-orah-4i-camera-can.html
I know it has a separate processing unit, but should be fine unless this unit has a LAN connection 🙂
Hi Kuba. Yes if you don’t mind the $3500 price Orah can do that. But for $3500 i think you would be better off with Insta360 Pro. The only reason I didn’t mention it is because I thought you wanted a lower-cost camera. But if $3500 is ok, then Insta360 Pro has all of those (including RJ45), and has higher quality than Orah.
Best regards,
Mic
The Insta360 Pro should do that. If you are willing to stream over USB, HDMI or even wifi there are many more options:
– Garmin Virb 360
– Ricoh Theta V
– YI 360 VR
– GoPro Fusion
Thanks Balance. I forgot about Theta V and Insta360 Pro. doh! I’ll add those to the list. Fusion doesn’t have realtime stitching. Best regards, Mic

Mic,
No photo specs were included. Does it shoot stills?

Hi Jeff. I believe it does, since they posted a sample 360 photo, but their website didn’t show the resolution for photo. I’ll try to find out. Best regards, Mic
Thank you!
4K realtime stitching camera is a (too much?) crowded group;
now we need cameras which can stitch 6K or 8K (incamera or realtime, like Pilot Era) priced in a mid range (1000-2000$)
However 4k live stitching is good.
Hi Giorgio. I don’t think 4k realtime stitching is such a common feature yet but the good news is that Pilot Era can stitch 6K in realtime.
Best regards,
Mic
Hi,
There is a 360 camera similar to Insta360/Orah, but waterproof?
I need it to use it as a 24/7 streaming webcam.
Thanks!
Hi Daniele! For 24/7 webcam, try Allie camera. http://amzn.to/2DrmUNb But it is not waterproof, and it seems that they’re about to discontinue it. On the plus side, it’s now much cheaper.
Best regards,
Mic
I need waterproof. There is nothing?
The quality of AllieCam is poor…
Hi Mic Ty,
I tried sending an email to thank you for featuring us. Not sure if you’ve got it or not. So I’m sending it here as well. Thank you! Feel free to contact me if there’s any questions!
Best regards,
Camilla
Does anybody know if there is any rtsp/rtmp capable live streaming 360 camera with automatic live stream start after power on (or some programmable possibility [bluetooth API] by which we can program Android app to command camera start live stream to predefined server via predefined Wifi hotspot)? Your comments is highly appreciated. For example, Yi 360 have live streaming, but it always need user clicks to start it up. Our need is kind of industrial use case where no extra clicks are allowed. Thank you.
