The Nikon Keymission 360 - a 360 degree view. Probably makes the waves look even smaller... (Not cheap at A$650)

You can stabilise the image to any point or direction you want during post production. What was an annoying novelty is starting to become a useful creative tool.

At the moment hand held stabilisers are the next big thing. The video below shows you can use a 360 degree camera and achieve a similar end result without having to mess with the camera as much during shooting.

... apparently you can change that in post production too. It's probably a bit early to be sure but the promise is you have a spherical image you can pan and zoom on to your heart's content. It's only early days when you consider that the first GoPro appeared in 2006.

You ever met The Dogman??
His head spins so much you'd get dizzy watching the footage!!

That thing might just straighten out everything

After a bit of heavy Post production

Life inside the barrel

Sounds epic
