I would love to see behind the scenes post processing workflow for this video. The quality is great but its hard to find consistent information on the best workflows to get the highest level quality final product.
We need a HQ download link to view in our Meta Quest 2 (and to show clients)! This is the best explanation and presentation of what's possible in VR 180 to-date.
Yes this!!!
Great video, really does put the message across the do’s of shooting 180 video
Great work guys!
Dude this was SOOOOOO sick!
Perfect video for showcasing the capabilities of 180 stereo. Thank you for this!
Love it! I want it.
If I want to use multiple of these to stitch together into 360 (on a custom Mount) how many would you recommend using? The optics on the 360 options I have seen are unacceptable.
How do I get this clarity and what settings were used.
Great work here. I always wonder why even tho this video is a 4K video and has a 4K option, it doesn't have a 4K tag on it.
The way I think of the framing in both 180 degree and 360 degree filming is that you have to follow the 1/3 of 1/3rds law.. In other words. You need to focus in at the center of the image of a 3x3 grid (the 1/3 center)..and then within that, follow the normal 1/3 camera rules.. The nice thing about 360 degree cameras, is that they don't split the 3D effect in front of you, they keep it 2D..and then your visor converts it to Stereogram. Its much nicer to look at that way. The problem I have with Sterograms in a VR visor is that I can never seem to get them lined up 100 percent right, and it always feels uncomfortable to look at. And I find that it also pushes your "depth of action" back. In stereograms, the actor has to stand back. But with 360 degree opposing lenses, you can get within inches of the actor if you have to, and it looks fine.
Nice
Great video! Do you get the same features on the R5 C with this lens to help with focusing and overlay?
Great question! Both the R5 and R5 C share many of the same features, but there are some differences. You can find these in the [Recording] section of the VR RECORDING GUIDE at the link here: canon.us/441Ng05

@@CanonUSA The information helped. Thanks!
Hello, I am looking to buy one of these for work. Just a question on using a tripod. I guess it needs an extension length as it will capture the tripod legs if it is just attached as normal. What are people using with this? Any recommendations are welcomed as I am a newbie to this. Thanks in advance.

Hello! Is there a workflow video of video shot in canon r5 fisheye and splicing and exporting to use for vision pro device in immersive mode?
Hi Mary. We currently don't have that type of video available for use with Apple Vision Pro.
Hello, the 3d video will work with VR device ... but i would like to know if the same file can be watched online as a normal video without 3d without the need to record 2 videos with 2 different lenses. Thank you in advance !!!
Absolutely, Josep. In fact, we did it ourselves as a demonstration of how the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye lens could do. Check out our video at canon.us/frontrow8k
Hope this helps!
Wow tysm Canon! Do you have any free/sample raw stereoscopic 8k footage using this lens for us to test and play around with? Thanks for your knowledge and time!!
Hi Nickolas! This lens opens up a new world for Canon video. We don’t sample files available for download but we have a number of VR production and editing tutorials. You may check out this - canon.us/3w9dwue. We also have this VR playlist - canon.us/44hZZNI

CZcams supports 360 degrees videos but does it support 360+Stereoscopic videos?
Can the 3D function be turned off, so I still shoot in VR 180 just normal 2D?
Hi Philip,
Our Cinema support agents are the best ones to answer this in detail. You can contact them at 855-246-3367, 24 hours, 7 days a week, excluding holidays. The lens captures stereoscopic 3D imagery to a single full-frame image sensor. Viewing it in 2D or 3D depends on the processing and the device you will use for viewing. Additional information is on our website here: canon.us/RF_dual_fisheye_lens
We hope this helps.
vide doesn't work with hp reverb g2, all I get is black screen and text saying video not responding
Hi! Our lens support team is ready to help. You can reach them weekdays and Saturdays at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666).
Hope to talk to you soon!
will it work on APS-C?
Hello! 👋 This lens is currently only compatible with our EOS R5 C or EOS R5 full frame, mirrorless cameras.
it is wonderful tech but the resolution is not perfect and i think it needs special sensor not only lens the ordinary sensor take rectangle photos but vr photos is square
When is Canon going to come out with a plugin that works on Macs with Silicon chips? It's been almost a year now and I'm about to go crazy. Please, please fix this.
It's out now!
So if I glue two of your gizmos together, I’ll get 360 degrees?
Yes it’ll work
Not really. It will be 360 but only in 3D looking forward or backward. It will transition to 2D as you look to the sides. Also, you'll likely have parallax and stiching issues when looking in those directions. Get a real 360 3D camera instead to solve these problems. Oh and don't use glue ;
i feel like 210-270 degree is the sweet spot, 180 has a bit of a limitation peaking out of the corner of your eye in vr
HOW MUCH ?????
Hi. Current pricing on our Direct Store for the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens is $1,799.00. Learn more and purchase at: canon.us/33Lg7wa
Unless you benefit of HQ video with other tools (Quest?) to watch this, otherwise watching it on YT on a computer, doesn't really bring any enjoyment to me. It's like watching a 720p video.
CZcams sucks. They dropped the stereoscopic VR for iOS devices. Why?
There is only one good usage for 180 video lol
Science movies
Filming some lady’s “cat”.
