The Kandao Obsidian Pro, a 12K 3D 360 camera, has been officially launched, with a few surprises from the information I’ve posted previously.
As previously posted, the Obsidian Pro features eight APS-C sensors, the largest sensors among all-in-one 360 cameras (i.e., excluding rigs). It also has 12-bit RAW video and can take 14-bit RAW photos. Here are some surprising new features:
1. SSD. Most professional 360 cameras use several memory cards (usually one per sensor). This is necessary to record an adequately high bitrate for each sensor. The Insta360 Titan, for example, uses nine SD cards. The Obsidian Pro on the other hand, records eight videos simultaneously to a single SSD drive. This could make the workflow much easier.
2. Electronically adjustable focus – The Obsidian Pro is the first 360 camera to have an electronically adjustable focus. The focus on all lenses can be simultaneously adjusted to either prioritize near objects or far objects.
3. Super VC liquid cooling. When recording very high resolution videos, the sensors and processor can overheat quickly. The Obsidian Pro is the world’s first 360 camera to have liquid cooling, which should provide more effective cooling than fans alone or passive cooling mechanisms.
KANDAO OBSIDIAN PRO PRICE AND AVAILABILITY; LAUNCH PROMO
The Obsidian Pro prices are as follows:
- $24,500 (no SSD)
- $26,700 (4TB SSD)
- $28,900 (8TB SSD)
- $35,000 (16TB SSD)
The Obsidian Pro is available for order direct from Kandao and will begin shipping May 20. They also have a special launch promo: from April 15 to May 31, 8TB SSD Bundle can be upgraded to 16TB SSD Bundle for free.
