What a camera so impressed I had issues with the late delivery I was tempted to cancel the order but now I have it I’m so glad I did not cancel its a very solid camera and easy to setup and I’m blown away with the quality out the videos
Excellent 360 Video and Photo Camera The QooCam 3 Ultra is the latest and no doubt the best 360 consumer camera on the market. Support from Kandao is very good, which is very important with new products on the market. Yes there are teething problems, but that is expected with a new product. The important thing is how quickly those problems are resolved. The QooCam 3 Ultra allows me to take very good 360 photos with excellent resolution using a camera that is affordable. Well done Kandao.
If only - UPDATED Unfortunately I have had to return this item. First the good – the image quality is as good as advertised. Sadly it’s totally let down by the sound. After being turned on for just over 10 minutes the camera got very hot and what I guess is an onboard fan kicked in and totally ruined the sound being recorded. I should stress that although turned on, the camera was not running continuously just two separate short video clips of roughly 1 minute each. If you just want this camera for pictures and are prepared to add your own sound then I’m sure you will be pleased otherwise you could take the risk and hope I got a random faulty unit.
UPDATE – Following this review and comments I posted on my You Tube Channel and Facebook I received feedback from both the Manufacturer and existing users. There is apparently a firmware fix now out plus I apparently missed an item in the settings which enables me to totally turn off the fan. So I am awaiting a replacement and felt it only fair to upgrade my rating to reflect my satisfaction with all other aspects of the camera. Now using the replacement with the fan turned OFF and all seems well.
