Hardware is perfect, easy to understand with only two buttons, a side compartment (for microSD, wifi & battery) and underwater lens caps. Image quality is pretty good, bear in mind that 4k resolution is spread over the whole 360 view so quality isn't going to be as high as other 4k cameras on the...

Compact; Build quality; Battery life

Great little camera that takes amazing 360 shots. Not really tried video as not my thing. Using the software you can make cool style planet shots. Great price for a great fun camera.

A little worried based on past reviews, but so far, so good. To date, I have had no issues with the Nikon software. It does, however, seem a bit more complex to use vs. software for similar cameras. The camera itself possesses all the quality you would expect from Nikon.

Very rugged; Very good image quality

The software still needs some help; Mounts incompatible with other action cameras, ie; GoPro; Terrible! These mounts are also very expensive

360 video is a new concept and Nikon have produced a very good product; But is has issues; If you happy to connect your camera direct to your desktop then it's great, connection to wifi are Bluetooth is a joke; I wouldn't bother buying it if your going to connect it to your phone.

The Nikon KeyMission 360 ($499.95) does a lot of things right, but it also does a few things wrong.

Pre-stitched 360-degree 4K video; 29MP still capture; Waterproof to 100 feet; Wi-Fi remote control; Electronic vibration reduction; Mac and Windows desktop software

Doesn't double as a traditional action cam; Seams visible at close distances; Short battery life; Huge file sizes; 4K resolution at 24fps only; No mic input; Mounts aren't GoPro compatible

The Nikon KeyMission 360 is one of the three action cameras that Nikon have launched alongside the KeyMission 170 and the KeyMission 80. As the name suggests, its key feature is that it can record 360 degree photos and videos.

Nikon KeyMission 360: Nikon sets its sights on VR with its KeyMission 360 camera, but does it impress?

Great picture and video quality; Waterproof and shockproof

Infuriating app; Very few settings; Expensive

360o angle. Not great. Also not able to return as opened

With its KeyMission range, Nikon has moved away from its still image camera heritage and moved into action camera territory, arguably arriving somewhat late to the party with its KeyMission 80 and KeyMission 170 cameras. But the company hasn't been quite so tardy with its KeyMission 360 VR camera.
