Build 360 degree camera rig

Hello~

I'm going to build 360 camera rig with 12 x Sony qx10 to take 360 aerial photograph.

The Gopro camera has fisheye distortion and not much good image quality as qx10 or qx100.

Also, it is cheaper than Gopro cameras. I'll make the rig with 3D printers. 

I haven't seen this setup in the web so I'm little bit worry to make it. Is there any comment on this job?

The biggest problem that I found is synchronizing all cameras. Sony doesn't provide usb triggering software. It should be captured with wifi connection but, a sony guy (link below) said I can control only on camera over wifi.

The ideas is putting 12 spark core to communicate individual camera at the same time. I saw that some people use this for triggering cameras.

  • Following this thread... very interesting, have you made a 3d printed holder for all the cameras yet?
