Its newest model, the Ricoh Theta S, captures high-resolution spherical images of nearly 14 mega-pixels and records HD video at 30fps, with a maximum recording time of 25 minutes. The spherical images captured by both the Theta S and Theta m15 can be easily uploaded to theta360.com; posted and shared via Facebook, Google+, Google Maps and YouTube; as well as shared via Twitter and Tumblr.<\/p>\n<p>The Ricoh Theta series camera is the brainchild of Ricoh&#8217;s Visual Revolution or VR division, an organization that is focused on developing consumer imaging technologies. The camera&#8217;s combination of small size, high quality imagery and functionality are a result of Ricoh&#8217;s experience in imaging and optical technologies. The company has long been a player\u00a0in professional printers and copiers, and is known for its optics and optical components.<\/p>\n<p>A key achievement with the Theta series is an ultra-small twin-lens folded-optical system capable of capturing two wide-angle images and then marrying them into a single spherical image.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ricoh Theta S, captures high-resolution spherical images of nearly 14 mega-pixels and records HD video at 30fps, with a maximum recording time of 25 minutes.
