This Tiny Centr Camera Can Shoot 360-Degree, Full-HD Video Panoramas

  Centr is a small but powerful camera that can shoot full HD 360-degree video panoramas in real time. Which is awesome. And it's shaped like a donut (actually, a mini-donut). Which makes it even more awesome.

  Created by former Apple engineers, the device uses four independent 5.0 megapixel sensors that can each shoot full 1080p video. A proprietary software that takes 20 individual variables into consideration will combine and stitch these captures in real time, producing panoramic content at 60fps.

  With its donut-like shape, the Centr can be mounted right on one finger, making it incredibly easy to use. It comes with a built-in digital bubble level, so you can easily ascertain when the cameras aren't properly aligned, as well as 8GB of onboard storage with microSD card support. There's built-in WiFi, Bluetooth, three mics, and a removable battery (you can easily swap them out) good for two hours of continuous video. It comes with an accompanying mobile app where you can adjust settings, see previews, and view full panoramic footage.

  Obviously, this will make for a wonderul camera during road trips, wildlife excursions, and outdoor festivals where there's always a lot going on. Designed to slot into any GoPro and standard tripod mount with a splash-proof enclosure, however, it can also serve as a supercharged action cam, allowing you to film fast-paced action sport footage (and drone videos) in a way that isn't even possible with current offerings. We don't know how it will stand up to falls and drops, though, so you might want to temper the action cam experiments just a little bit.

  A Kickstarter campaign to fund Centr is currently running. Available pledges to reserve a unit starts at $299.

Novo Action Cam Improves On The GoPro Hero3

    It's undeniable that the action cam market is crowding up these days.  Despite that, there's really little option among the products for using with standard lenses to give you more flexibility in your shots.  Not the case with the Novo Action Cam, which repurposes the GoPro's guts into a slim form factor that's compatible with C-mount lenses.

    Made by Radiant Images and View Factor Studios, it's not a new camera, by any means.  Instead, it literally just takes the guts of a GoPro Hero3 Black Edition and stuffs them into a new housing -- one that's thinner and lighter than the popular action cam's original shell.

    More than a sleeker appearance, though, the device's primary purpose is to inject the GoPro Hero3 with capabilities that allow it to get past its cinematic limitations by way of a C-mount lens system with back focus adjustment (for extreme macro shooting), exposure control capabilities, and an internal CPU for carrying out various functions (such as disabling the auto-exposure and adjusting the aperture manually via the lens).

    The catch?  You can't actually buy a Novo Action Cam.  Instead, you can rent it, priced at $295 a day and $885 a week.
