So I recently bought a 360 camera off of Amazon for just under $90. I have Amazon prime so it arrive just two days later. For this price, I was expecting utter crap. Granted I did have to buy an SD card for it too, it still was incredibly cheap, given that just a few years ago a 360 camera would have been many hundreds of dollars.
I was absolutely blown away by the quality on these things. The pictures are insane. I was able to use them with my Oculus Rift and I felt like I was back at those locations! The videos are pretty good, especially when viewed on a mobile device.
I run YouTube channel specializing in paranormal content, so I decided to make some 360 horror short films with this camera.
By the way, this 360 camera is called a Samsung Gear 360 and I bought the 2016 version. There is also a 2017 version of this camera, but the 2016 one comes with a tripod and it is $100 cheaper.
Here is an example video I made with this camera (Hope you don't get too spooked!):
