buy a Spherical Panoramic Video Camera - $500 beta version

Hi Everyone,

As you might have seen already, I have been developing a 360 video camera.

I'm now offering these cameras on a limited basis for $500USD each + VAT. with free processing, publishing, and hosting included in that price.

The people who get this first beta product will have the first chance (and a better price) on the next version.


Here are some demos, where you can also read more details about the offer.

Stationary, outside bar - "slice of life"

Wearing it on a helmet at Robot Man's house

Sunny Terrace
www.360cities.net/video/v2/sunny-terrace/beta2.ht...

Walking to the bus stop
www.360cities.net/video/v2/house-to-bus/beta2.html

I'll post more demos as soon as I can.

If you want to reserve one, please contact me OFF LIST at +420 608 076 502 / skype jeffrey.s.martin or contact me through the 360cities.net contact page.

best,
Jeffrey Martin

Hmm, that's strange.

Has anyone else had the same problem? ON the few computers I've tried, the image shows after about 10 seconds...

Works fine here, MacOSX Safari just 10 seconds loading.

Jeff, maybe it's wise to show/explain what exactly you are selling, not just the result of what it is capable of. Before people are willing to spend $500 they need to be sure it's worth it.

Henri, as stated on the web page, (where there *is* a full explanation!) this is a work in progress, it needs refinement. I am not the only person working on such a device, and I would prefer to keep some of the information about it private, for now. I hope you can understand that. If anyone has specific questions about the size / weight / dimensions, they can always contact me.

The demos are intended to show what the camera is currently capable of. If you like it, and want the first chance to use this very exciting device, then please contact me.

The response so far has been quite amazing, I will wait a few more days before closing this round....

Soon we can look forward to some interesting immersive videos from many places in the world. that's exciting!!

Hi everyone,

I'll be closing the orders for this product in a few days. If you're interested, please let me know ASAP. There will never be another chance to get this particular camera. The next one will cost at least 5 times more. If you get this one, you will save more than $500 on the next one. (what a deal!! smile )
