It’ll take a big longer than a standard video to upload and process due to the extra work involved, with a 20-second 360 video clip taking around 5-10 mins to process via the Facebook app once uploaded – in our experience, anyway. With video it’s slightly different, as you won’t get a 360-degree preview like you do with photos, as Facebook has to manually ‘stitch’ it together. It’s worth noting that it didn’t always work the first time around for photos, although deleting the draft and re-uploading usually fixes the problem. Select the photo or video, give it a caption and upload it. If all has gone to plan, your photo/video should feature a small circular icon in the bottom-righthand corner – this shows that the file has metadata that Facebook can use to reconstruct the 360-degree environment. Once it’s exported, open up the Facebook app and tap the option to upload a photo or video and browse for your 360-degree file.
IPHONE PANORAMA VIDEO FULL
Now, instead of tapping on Facebook or Twitter, select the option to export it as a panorama – this will all make sense soon. Take the video capability of your iPhone to the next level with this breakthrough iPhone Panorama Video Camera attachment. 360 Panorama turns your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad into a full featured 360 degree panoramic camera. Once you’ve captured a 360 photo or video that you’d like to share with your Facebook friends, tap the Share icon in the top-right hand corner. While it’s hard to measure the width of a panoramic photo when taking it in the default Camera app, taking a full-length panoramic shot (until it automatically finishes) via the app should suffice. It’s worth noting, however, that the photos need to be a certain width for Facebook to recognise them as being 360-compatible.
As you might expect, Video mode lets you use your iPhone to capture video.
You can also create a shorter panoramic photo by tapping the shutter button again after you start to stop where you are. It’s also exclusive to photos, as there’s no way to film a panoramic video via the built-in Camera app.įor iPhone and iPad users, it’s as simple as opening the Camera app, selecting the Panorama shooting mode and capturing a panoramic photo. By default, Pano mode captures panoramic photos from left to right, but you can reverse this by tapping the arrow. Users won’t be able to look up and down when looking at your photo on Facebook, but should still be able to pan from left to right by either swiping across the display or by rotating their smartphone, offering a basic level of immersion. While the results may not be as impressive as when using a dedicated 360-degree camera, iOS users can produce decent 360 photos by using the Panorama functionality of the built-in camera app – although there’s a catch. Giving somebody the ability to sit inside a photo or video and physically look around provides a much more enjoyable viewing experience than simply scrolling through your Facebook news feed looking at standard photos and videos.
