I'll start off by saying that this camera set up is well designed for its 'Intended' use. It is meant to be used with the 3DR SOLO, that's it. When used in any way that is more common for 360 camera's, blogging, panoramic pictures or action cam type video, it is among the worst. There is no video/picture stabilization, the Kodak stitching software is really out of date and MS Windows doesn't support the camera's full resolution video's. The software is buggy and for some reason zooms in about 50% in the preview window and has bare-bones controls for cleaning up the stitch line. Another thing to mention is that the picture and video only have a dpi of 72 which is extremely low, to put that into perspective my phone that is 2 years older than this camera, shoots pictures that have a dpi of roughly 300.
That's enough of the bad, what about the good? OK there are some good things about it. The first thing I really liked about it is, that it's 2 camera's. That seems odd now a days but it makes perfect sense for a drone. This is because the drone would be in the camera's blind/stitch band, making the drone almost completely disappear. The next good thing is that it has an Micro HDMI and USB port which in my experience can both be used while shooting video which is something you usually only see on high-end DSLR and video camera's. Some other minor good, is that it comes with a remote that controls both camera's at the same time, which cuts down on B roll and lets you get out of the camera's sight when taking pictures or doing a time lapse. The mounts that it comes with are almost GO PRO quality except for the selfie stick which uses a twist lock that relies on the tubes staying perfectly round "which they don't" and uses set screws to hold the tripod adapter in place and therefor it wobbles, mine was even missing one. To fix this I replaced them with M3 by 6mm flush mount machine screws to make it really solid.
With all that said, I cannot recommend this camera to anyone especially 3DR Solo users.
This camera is another reason why Kodak has been largely forgotten.

Not a replacement for a Ricoh Theta S, but a unique upgrade from a standard action cam.
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2016
12/3/2016 Update: Dropped off a star due to so many issues with the desktop software. Review updated.I got my first digital camera in 1996, and had my first one-shot 360 lens system in 2005. Much has changed in the past decade, and today there are a variety of 360 cameras available. This Kodak is my fourth 360 camera, and I am comparing it to things like the Ricoh Theta m15, Ricoh Theta S and Giroptic 360cam. Each camera I have owned has had advantages over the others, so I will try to point out what is good about the SP360.First, this is an action camera, like a GoPro. It's splashproof and designed a bit more rugged than something like the Ricoh Theta. It has lens covers and there are additional waterproof cases for it. It has a small display screen and buttons to changes modes via an on-screen menu. Overall, it's pretty easy to figure out and use. It also has WiFi so you can connect to it via an iOS/Android/Mac/PC app and remotely control it. All of my testing was done using the iOS app over WiFi, though I did try to get the awful desktop software to work on my Mac. (UPDATE: The Mac software sucks. There are times when it stops responding to input and you have to restart it. Even doing the simplest things often does not work. This makes the camera basically useless since you need the software to convert it to a format you can post.)Since there is only one lens, it cannot take full 360+360 images (where you can look all the way around as well as up and down). Instead, it's half of that - so you take a picture with the lens pointing up and get a 360 panorama (all the away around, and up). Or, you mount it above facing down. There is a great sample video on the official Kodak website taken from the inside of an airplane cockpit facing down, and it gives good results (since there is nothing to see above anyway except the roof). You can also take images with it facing forward, giving you a 360 forward view of what is ahead. This is the mode most likely to be used on an action camera like this -- mounting it facing forward on a bicycle, or wearing it on a harness. These videos don't share well, since most all software is designed for the 360 panoramas rather than a "front facing" image. (Update: If facing forward, you have to make sure to orient the camera in the proper direction. The software has no way to rotate it, so I shot a 30 minute drive through of a Christmas display and now cannot use it since my video is sideways. It chops the video up into multiple files, so I tried to manually combine them in to one image via Final Cut Pro and then rotate it there. This worked, but I couldn't make the Kodak software use this file to convert it to something I can post. Can this be done? It takes weeks to get a response from the Kodak support message board, so no help there yet.)Although the camera claims to be a 4K image, what it is recording is actually a circular bubble (see attached photo) so many of those 4K pixels are not used. When it unwraps in to a panorama, that 4K of pixels is spread to all four sides and top (or bottom), so the actual images are noticeably low resolution compared to a normal 4K still image. One nice feature is the ability to export a normal looking image from the panorama, letting you take on 360 image, then later pull out photos facing different directions (without the warped panorama look).You can also record videos. The videos are also recorded in the round bubble format, so you have to export them via the apps in to a normal panorama MP4. These videos can be played back on YouTube and Facebook. They work very much like images from a Theta or 360cam, but when you look on the other side the image is just black (no lens on that side). I also tested sharing to Google+, but those do not show up with a 360 player.There seems to be support to use it as a USB camera (with a note on the website about using it for Skype). I did not test this.This kit also comes with a box of mounting accessories. Unfortunately, they don't give any details on what they are used for. It would have been nice if they had included a sheet showing what they are for (since "Standard Housing-B") doesn't really tell me anything). From what I figured out ... There are a few sticker mounts, a suction cup mount, and various adapters to connect them to each other. There is even a bar mount that looks like it could be used to attach it to bicycle handlebars. Since the SP360 tripod mount is on the side (for facing forward), an L shaped bracket is also included that lets you attach it on the bottom (facing up).The camera also comes with two clear lens covers that you can keep on to reduce damage to the glass lens. To get the best picture, you want to remove it (and a dummy ring is included to screw on to it). There is also a very loose fitting plastic cover to put on when in storage. A small pouch is included that will barely hold the camera with lens cover.If you are wanting to do true 360+360 photos, go for the Ricoh Theta S. This is no substitute. But, if you are looking for a more rugged action camera, having the 360 capability gives you a lot more flexibility. The Theta's tripod mount is plastic, so it can be broken easily if mounting it on a bike.I will still be using my Ricoh for normal 360 photography, but this is the camera I would take with me on bike rides or places where there might be a bit of water.The worst part of the experience was the awful Kodak software. It works, but just barely. There is a playback mode toggle (video/pictures) that continually makes the program freeze. There were also times in the iOS app where the "please wait" spinning graphic showed up and never went away. Tons of rough edges. At least I was able to take pictures remotely, and share them. Most of the timeI think this would be a nice upgrade from a standard action cam, but for true 360+360 photography, go for the Ricoh Theta S.
