'Re-shoot' your VR footage with ease. GoPro Fusion.
Great image quality ; OverCapture delivers compelling traditional footage ; Easy to use
Transferring footage through the app is slow and fiddly ; Limited Android support for OverCapture ; Relatively expensive
The GoPro Fusion’s headline OverCapture mode lets you get some really creative video from your VR footage.

Fully-featured 360 camera
Over-capture mode ; Full-featured apps and software ; Rubberised & waterproof design ; Two free microSD cards
Lacks 100fps slo-mo ; 5.7K is now standard ; Large physical size ; No live-streaming ; Constant connection issues
A neat 'over capture' feature allows converting 360 footage into regular widescreen videos, but time-consuming processing makes this one for professional content creators. Fusion is not about 360. With its over-capture allowing post-editing of...

Overall, the GoPro Fusion is a 360-degree camera that's stupidly simple to shoot with and capable of producing very impressive video. Its real win is
OverCapture 'pan within footage' software is brilliant ; Footage looks fantastic once edited in app ; Waterproof and durable build ; Easy to shoot ; Very versatile ; Fusion Grip included
No OverCapture for Android (yet) ; It costs a lot ; Learning curve is steep if you've never shot 360 degree before ; Desktop solution is hard work
Overall, the GoPro Fusion is a 360-degree camera that's stupidly simple to shoot with and capable of producing very impressive video. Its real win is OverCapture, though, which on iPhone is utterly brilliant.

The Fusion falls just short of being the revolutionary action cam it might one day become...
Great image quality ; Top-quality stabilisation ; Overcapture is loads of fun
Buggy desktop software ; Very limited phone support
The software needs work, but this is the 360 camera you should be drooling over

The GoPro Fusion elevates the bar for standalone 360 cameras.
OverCapture creates stunning fixed-frame content ; Angel View magically erases the extension pole ; 5.2K resolution looks good (at least on a phone) ; Easy-to-use mobile app
Some features not available at launch ; More expensive than the competition ; Requires two MicroSD cards

Unlike most 360 cameras, the GoPro Fusion is designed to create both spherical and standard HD videos. If action/adventure is your game and your workflow is geared towards mobile and web, the Fusion may be the camera you're looking for.

The GoPro Fusion lets you do more with 360-degree video than other cameras, but its mobile software experience could use some refinement.

GoPro to launch Fusion 360 degree camera with WiFi : For over a year GoPro is teasing us with their new 360 camera. The company already released a video showing the capabilities of the 360 degree camera and started a pilot some months ago. But GoPro...
The folks over at 360 Rumors believe the GoPro Fusion 360 camera will make its debut somewhere around March 2018. We on the other hand believe the camera will arrive sooner and will most likely be presented at CES 2018 (January). Why we think this?

GoPro Fusion review: At the moment, the GoPro fusion would well be the best affordable 360-degree camera.
