The 360-degree camera market is booming, and there are already a large number of devices that can record 360-degree videos in virtual reality. To stand out from the crowd, Marine Image Technology (MI Tech) has developed a 360 underwater camera for professionals.

Consisting of 10 cameras (eight in horizontal and two vertical circles), this camera records 8K, 4K or 4K stereoscopic videos. The cameras are Sony UMC-S3CA cameras with SLR Magic lenses.

This product shines with its ability to take high-quality pictures even in low light conditions. Thanks to Sony sensors it is possible to film with a minimum brightness of 0.004 lux (ISO 409.600).
