The KanDao QooCam 8K is the world’s first pocket-sized 8K 360 camera

Brass in pocket

KanDao is looking to make a splash in the pocket camera market with the QooCam 8K (£557), which the company reckons is the smallest 8K 360 camera in the world. Despite being a bitesized proposition, the QooCam is capable of capturing 8K 30fps and 4K 120fps footage using a 1/1.7in 20MP sensor. It also features a Realtime Raw+ mode that makes APS-C image quality a reality, and when you feel like getting particularly arty can capture super-slow-motion and ultra-smooth video without the need for accessories like a gimbal. A 2.4in touchscreen makes harnessing all those features a doddle, and if you’re the sort who believes sharing is caring, you can also use the QooCam to live stream 4K video straight from your smartphone. What a treat!

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
