The shutter button is horrible. I still use the camera a lot, as I like using the attached viewfinder, that makes it much more fun to use. I hope they make an updated version, every problem with the Ego, should be easy to solve.

immerGallery is quite an expensive app, in comparison to SkyBox, which can view photos and play videos.

… forgot to mention that with StereoPhotoMaker (SPM), free stereoscopic photo editor, you can easily extract from VR180 photo file a good looking typical stereo/3D photo, with proper perspective and optical corrections.

… and I like your take on Ego camera … it’s indeed a nasty Goocam made by Egomaniacs (Kandao refused to acknowledge the camera focusing failures in many Ego units and never recalled it or made an offer to replace).

“For me, VR180 is in 3D (for example Vuze XR). Stereoscopic = (iPhone 15 Pro , Goocam EGO …”

Both VR180 and “Stereoscopic=” photos contain two (Left and Right) views. So effectively they are both stereoscopic. The only difference is that VR180 is a much wider FOV than “typical” 3D photo format. When you crop the center of VR180 frame, then you’ll get a typical looking stereoscopic image (without VR180 extreme fisheye lens optical deformations).

Canon PowerShot VR10 camera is the model name of that still not officially released folding 360/VR180 camera concept. Canon showed its latest prototype body in February 22 this year during CP+ trade show in Japan. For short few hours the closeup photo of the back of this camera was posted on a Japanese social web page (and soon it was blurred to hide the text details). So that folding cam model was shown to be VR10, the serial number of that prototype was 001041000076, it was marked as “INDOOR USE ONLY” and of course it was “MADE IN CHINA”. The rest of the markings were non-readable, even after running that photo through Topaz AI enhancement.

So we need to be patient. Canon VR10 hopefully will be made available this year.

I see. For me, VR180 is in 3D (for example Vuze XR). Stereoscopic = (iPhone 15 Pro , Goocam EGO and the new Acer). So the Canon folding camera is a VR180 3D / VR360° 😉

The Canon folding camera will be VR180, which is stereoscopic (with “3D” depth).

I have two W3 cameras. The image quality of the Qoocam Ego and Acer are a lot better.

Personally, I like the Qoocam Ego. It takes a few seconds to boot up but I don’t find it unreliable. I haven’t lost footage and the new autofocus makes it much easier to use.

I think “To get 7680×3840 SBS photos and videos, we’ll have to wait until the Canon folding camera finally comes out.” But these will be VR180 format and not stereoscopic – if I understand correctly? . So everyone has to decide which format is best for his workflow.
