traditional multi-shot pano solutions are almost impossible in moving events. The 36 cameras is the genius of the camera, because its the only high-resolution spherical camera that can capture spherical panoramas of things like a marathon where every object is moving, runners, audience, dogs and little kids, everybody is moving and only a 1-click camera can grab a instant picture. Well as mentioned before, the camera is a ball of 36 cameras. This brings us to today, the Panono camera and online server system is now owned by Professional360 GMBH (german for incorporated) and it is now shipping in various packages, the least expensive of which I have seen being about $1400+ You can find the original Panono Indigogo campaign online. Jonas, Im sorry it did not work out as scheduled, you designed a great camera and you truly deserved to succeed, it was just not in the cards. The Panono company did successfully bring the camera to market in 2017, but when you do the math, with the 2600+ backers, they had less than $500 per camera to both design and manufacture the camera, in the end that was just not enough capital, and unfortunately Jonas' company became insolvent after delivering about 500 cameras in the summer of 2017. The challenges in terms of stitching was enormous because the off-set camera system is basically born with a big nodal-point error, which Jonas had great ideas for solving.

and even with so many backers, that meant he had to first develop the hardware, then the software and finally the online server system. Unfortunately Jonas in his optimism under estimated the challenges of bringing the camera from the working concept to a mass market product. The brainchild of German inventor Jonas Pfeil, The Panono camera started life as a crowd funded camera in the fall of 2013, being funded to the tune of $1,250,000 by 2600 backers. its an acquired taste, but in the end, I really like my Panono camera. Read on for a bit of history and perspective on the Panono 1.0 spherical camera. The most striking part of the Panono camera is the 36 lenses, which essentially speaking is 12 smartphone cameras distributed on each of 3 "orange slices" that make up the camera. This is where the Panono comes in, its essentially a multi-level pano rig turned instant 1-click camera experience. But the DSLR+fisheye+stitching situation is still fairly labor intensive. For commercial tours I still like to shoot a DSLR in a 120deg indexed rotator with a fisheye lens. however its still fairly low-res and "soft" by photography standards. As you probably already know, there are a fair amount of 1-click spherical cameras on the market already, I own a ThetaV 4k 1-click camera that produce a shockingly good result.
