The Ricoh Theta Z1 can now capture HDR 360 photos in Raw DNG with little or no ghosting, thanks to the Dual Fisheye plugin by Yoichi Hirota. The same plugin can also be used to capture a Raw DNG burst for use with Kandao Raw+ stacking software. Here are other benefits of the new plugin, and a tutorial.

Ricoh Theta Z1 is a 360 camera with 1-inch sensors, the largest for any consumer 360 camera. Now, the Theta Z1’s capabilities can be further enhanced with a new plugin by Yoichi Hirota, the developer who has created other very useful 360 apps such as the Mi Sphere Stitcher.

Here is a summary of the new features added by the Dual Fisheye plugin:
