    Straight to the point - The beginning of more immersive photos and videos. Best tech right now
    First off, the reason I bought this is because of my interest in the latest tech. I've recently been getting into virtual reality (VR) and more immersive experiences. I heard about this item and couldn't help myself. Overall, I love my purchase and would buy it again. Hope this review helps you decide whether or not to purchase the camera.My video is segmented into 4 different parts:1: Design - how it looks and feels compared to others2: Simple button functions3. Phone connection and use with the app (VR and 360 preview)4. Pictures with a video at the end ( unfortunately Amazon doesn't render the 360 video experience so you can't use it like its meant to be used. However, you get to see a bit of what its like.) 360 video capturing used to be a very expensive and tedious task- that is you had to purchase several cameras and align them then stitch the video together.That is where Ricoh came in. Ricoh started their 360 cameras several years ago and has seen much improvement since.This Theta s is a big improvement from the previous m15 model. Why?1. Full 1080p HD video and pictures at 14MP.2. Less stitched up looking videos as experienced with the m15.3. You get 25 minutes of video recording in one sitting vs 6 minutes on the m15.4. Internal memory has been extended to 8GB5. You get live preview with this model prior to taking your picture.6. Sound quality has improved immensely - giving you more immersion.7. Battery life has been extended. Albeit not by much.This is a great introductory product for getting into the VR revolution that is predicted to boom this year with the release of VR headsets everywhere. It has a very sleek design with 2 cameras front and back that use fish eye view to stitch the photos and give a 360 experience. It comes with a case so as to protect the lenses when stored. They do have cases for this camera online so no worries there if you feel you need a better one. Underneath the device you can attach a stand that will be necessary as you'll see blurred pictures if you're moving too fast. The video has no problem with this. As far the tech goes, its still in its early stages and the quality of video is at its best without breaking the bank. Unfortunately, when uploading to Youtube you do get loss of quality which due to Youtube compression itself. Again, the tech is still climbing and this is where the standard is right now. The camera is at its best when taking pictures. The pictures are amazing and really good quality. To take pictures is simple. You click and voila the picture is stitched in the camera itself. If you do not want to be in the picture you can simply download the free app (iOS and Android) and use that to take the picture. You can connect to the camera using wifi and you get a distance of about 30 feet depending on how many walls are in between you and the camera. The app also allows you to preview the picture before its taken so you don't have to worry about not getting what you want. Additionally you can tweak the cameras settings to get an optimized image. The app software also allows you to experience your photos in Virtual Reality. Although it achieves this by giving you the same image twice - so you don't get a parallax effect. Thought there is software that allows you this opportunity. Overall, If you're looking to get started with the boom of VR and don't want to invest too much money this is the way to go!Comment with questions if you need clarification or if I missed something. Hope I helped in your decision.
