Under the dust cup, on the side of the camera, you can find its USB and HDMI ports, and its memory card slot.

The camera needs a SD card, 8-32GB, of Class 6 and above, but it’s recommended to use one of Class 10 when in professional recording mode.

The camera has a 1000mAh built-in battery.

It takes about 2 hours to charge the battery and one charge will last for more that 1 hour (1440P/30FPS).

When you plug the camera to charge it, the charging indicator light on it will turn blue, and it will turn off when the camera is fully charged.

You can take 360 degrees panoramic pictures and videos and you can use the image flattening mode, spherical image mode, lens set-top mode, or image segmentation mode. You can change to one of the different modes even after you’ve taken the picture.

App.

The camera has built-in WiFi so you can connect it to your phone and use the app to view the pictures and to change the settings. The app is available for iOS and Android devices.

One little problem is that the app is available just in Chinese, but it’s not so difficult to figure out what you need to do.

When you open the open you just need to press the button and go to the next step.

While taking pictures you can see the first two bottons t change the angle, the focus mode, and the settings.

You can only just slide your finger on the screen of your device to change the angle.

The camera comes with a battery, a USB cable, a manual in English and Chinese, and many different kinds of accessories; a waterproof case, a case for mounting it, a case for sticking it on surfaces, a case for carrying it around, two adapters , 2 mounts, and 2 stickers.

Overall we loved taking it our for a spin, we had not tired a super wide angle camera before and aside form the Chinese app it was a good firs experience. We are planning to actually get out of the office and try to take the footage it makes and then create a VR experience.
