Those are saved as “single lens” JPGs inside a container file (ORI format), together with other information (like stitching calibration, GPS if used, gyro information, shooting settings/metadata), on the USB thumb drive. You press the shutter (via camera button or smartphone app) – the camera takes three or six exposures (3HDR/6HDR) from all 25 sensors/lenses right after another to the RAM.
A full RAW workflow is neccessary to get the most stunning results out of it. At the moment i can only reccomend it to experienced photographers, who are willing to spend some time with it and can evaluate the up-/downsides. The possibilities with this nice tool seem endlessly, but the system is still in an quite early state. Stitching is easy and surprisingly good with their own software/app for PC and MAC. There is no preview, but direct stitching to smartphones available (JPG/PNO only). It works with 3 or 6-shot HDR and it’s own file format “ORI”, where the single pictures from all 25 sensors (3/6 each) are saved. The Xphase Pro S is a 360° one-click camera, that can capture 200 Megapixels in total (with an ready stitched output of 134 MP, 16K on a smartphone or PC/MAC). X2 should be available from 26th April 2021. Please find more information on the supplier’s website and stay tuned for further updates. Update (): There are new versions available/announced on the stabilizer-pro website – Xphase Pro S2 and X2.
