Ricoh THETA S Spherical Camera

The bit behind the photographer is part of the picture.

One fisheye lens faces you while another looks away from you. The THETA S combines the two views into a sphere, so a single press can capture the ceiling, floor and whoever thought they were safely out of frame.

WHY IT CAUGHT OUR EYE

It changes the usual question of where to point a camera. Where you stand matters more than which direction you face.

BEFORE YOU BUY

The two exposed lenses need careful handling. For this older S model, check Ricoh’s current software guidance for your phone or computer before buying.

Black THETA S, model 910720, with opposing fisheye lenses. The SC, V and later THETA cameras have separate listings.
