Is that the next photobusiness from Samung? At CES they displayed their big 360 degree camera marked under the #projectbeyond hashtag. And overall it really looks like Virtual Reailty is the next big thing (or big hype): Also Nikon launched the Keymission 360 degree camera.
Will this end like the 3D story or will those cameras really become mainstream in a few years from now? Well we will see…

I like the spherical trend but I think the Ricoh Theta S is expensive enough for this purpose. Theta is also the only real pocketable 360 camera. I Like the Nikon for its ruggedness but its far to bulky and probably too expensive too. The Nokia Ozo is way to expensive. The Samsung may be reasonable priced and I really like that its 3D. I think the spherical VR market is a bit too fresh so I keep looking for what to buy.
What happened with your super rumor of the year for serious camera partnership between Samsung and Nikon?
I stand to it 100%. But I got accused to have spread the rumor for “clickbait” reason. After so many critics I decided to not report more about it until the Nikon FF mirrorless gets announced. Because only then people willr elaize it has lot of Samsung tech inside.
