Kodak SP360 4K vs Nico360

The range of mounts offered by the Kodak SP360 4K enable it to be fixed to anything when capturing shots.

This device can capture 720p @ 120 fps videos.

The camera is splashproof, waterproof via a case, shockproof up to 2m via a lens cover, freezeproof up to 14°F / -10°C and dustproof, making it an excellent device for use outdoors when exposed to the elements.

The camera can be controlled remotely from the user's mobile device, allowing for added flexibility.

The company offers free stitching software for those who opt for the dual mount.

SP360 4K allows for one of the rare 2-camera setups that's capable of capturing completely spherical 4K video at 30 frames per second. Most alternatives either can't match the resolution, the framerate or require more than 2 cameras (which means more stitch lines). Important to note that in order to capture spherical footage, you'll need another SP360 4K camera and a dual camera base mount. Once captured and stitched, the output video is 3840 x 1920 @ 30 fps.

Unlike most other 360-degree cameras, SP360 4K only uses a single lens which means that there's no need for stitching the video.

The user can set the camera to a motion-detection mode that allows the camera to record videos when it picks up movement. It will then stop recording if there has been no movement for 10 seconds. This makes for an easy set-and-forget mode that can pick up one's pets or be used for security.

You can capture 2880 x 2880 footage @ 30fps with one camera and completely spherical 3840 x 2160 footage @ 30fps with 2 cameras. Within its price range, the video quality of the camera is excellent. The footage is reasonably sharp and it has good colors.

If you only want to shoot 360° x 235 then you don't need to worry about stitching the images. Though the software can be a problem, the camera itself is fairly intuitive.

Takes 12MP stills with clear colors.

It's completely waterproof in its own (doesn't require a waterproof casing).

Thanks to it's tiny size, it adds very little bulk and weight to your pack or luggage. The camera weighs only 96 grams.
