The Samsung Gear comes with dual fisheye lenses both of which have 15MP sensors. This camera makes use of Samsung’s technology that allows users to create their own virtual reality to enjoy the content on their Gear VR sets.
With the Samsung Gear 360, users will be able to shoot 360-degres videos with a resolution of up to 3,840×1,920 pixels. This camera is also able to shoot 30MP photos.
