@severalsnakes has some great Theta shots in her Flickr feed. She might chime in with some advice if you start a thread about the use of that device.

Welcome. Didn't checked Theta stuff for a long time, does it keep up with other brands regarding high resolution?

Hey, thanks for the kind words!

Welcome, inmediasres!

I do love the Theta, although it is a very particular sort of machine. It will take a picture of literally everything around you, so what other camera could you possibly need, right? :-)

Tricks for the Theta are similar to fish eye techniques, think of it as two back-to-back fish eye images that get stitched together. Even though the image can be manipulated and re-oriented, the originating point of view is still a huge consideration, and direct light creates challenges for the camera to cohesively stitch the scene.

Here's the Flickr album, and the Theta-hosted versions are in my signature link (the animation is much smoother on Theta's site).
