CES 2016: Ricoh Theta S spherical camera


List price:  $349.95



Mentioned in the slide show, The 2016 CES Report: The Trend Behind the Trend.  (Innovation Excellence)

Create your own Google Street View experiences with Ricoh's Theta S spherical camera.  (c|net, 9/3/2015)
Using the Street View app you can shoot and publish your own photo spheres with the Theta S to add to Google Maps for people anywhere to explore. (You can also use the app itself along with your phone's camera to shoot photo spheres, though it takes far more effort than using the Theta S.) The camera's images can also be shared on Google+ and uploaded to the YouTube 360-degree channel.

Most customers are pleased.


Bottom line:  I'm intrigued, though for now, not enough to spend 350 bucks.
