Welcome to my Ricoh Theta SC2 review. The SC2 is a mixture of value for money and entry-level 360 photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I love to call this camera a cheaper version of the Theta Z1<\/a>; which has a high price but excellent image performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ricoh has always had something for everyone when it comes to their Theta cameras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The SC2 is seen as a budget camera to those who may not afford the high-end Z1 or the previous Theta V.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ricoh Theta SC2 is the successor of the Theta SC camera which has been available October 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a business model of the SC2 that has a few tweaks in terms of user experience and presets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both the regular SC2 and the business model have the same performance when it comes to image and video qualities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Ricoh Theta SC2 for business has only the grey color while the regular SC2 comes with 4 different colors to choose from. The colors are; pink, blue, beige, and white.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The SC2 has the same design that Ricoh uses for their Theta cameras, the candy bar shape is good looking to my eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The SC2 can shoot 14MP 360 photos and going by today’s action camera standard, it is just to say that the photo resolution is a little bit less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In terms of video, the camera can manage 4K at 30 frames per second which is not bad at all considering that even the Z1 has a similar resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just like the Z1, the Theta SC2 is not waterproof without the need for waterproof housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A huge problem I have encountered so far with the SC2 is in stitching the 360 images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you look keenly, you will observe that there is a mismatch in where the images from both lenses meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is something you can edit in post-production to reduce it significantly but it is important that I mention it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this review, I will take you through all the features of this camera as well as how it performs in terms of photos, videos, battery, audio, and the general workflow speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Product: <\/strong>Ricoh Theta SC2<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
