Travel Photography - Panoramic cameras

Watching TV yesterday, I saw a show (could have been an infomercial) for the Lemography 360 spinner. Looked online and see that I can get one for just under $100.

The photos on TV look great (of course). Anybody here have any practical experience with one of these...or something similar ( at that price point or less)?

Also, while googling, I saw that Sony has their version of a spinner but functions more like a top. I like that this is digital, where the Lemography camera uses 35mm film. But now I can't find that camera online today.

Anything else I could be looking at? I'd like something cheap as this is really a novelty (for me). And don't want to spend time stitching photos together.

Thanks.

There's the Wide Angle Holga that shoots 6*12 images with a 120 degree FOV. Shops seem to sell them for $50 or so now. To get decent images you'll need a cable release, a tripod/mount (cheap will work) and a lightmeter (iPhone + ap works ok for this).

if you have an iPhone there's an App called Dermandar that stitches together photos for a 360 View. dermandar.com

It was either free or 99 cents, not sure now

Cheers

If you have any camera there are many programs, some free, to stitch together images.

This is different than a panoramic camera

I used a Fujifilm disposable once, in 2004. At that time it was difficult to get, now, I think it's impossible. It functioned well, its novelty wore off, and my trip was over.

Developing was quite expensive IIRC.

I've also seen the lomo camera you're talking about. Far too bulky in this day and age with the smartphones/iPhone having all those fancy apps to mimic just about anything.
