NAB 2017: 360 VR Is Still Alive


Did the North Hall first as I normally do, and the 360VR Section was there. While there wasn't quite the same excitement and crowds as last year, there were crowds, and a lot of new product. One thing that caught my eye was this small 360VR camera for your iPhone - the Insta360


A very cool remote camera dolly from a British company called Motion Impossible. This is the Mantis 360 Plus, and you mount your 360VR camera on it, and control it remotely.


There were a lot of 360 camera rigs at the show, usually for smaller cameras such as a Go Pro. But this was the real deal - 8 Alexa Minis sandwiched in there.
