You are so right about using the correct gear for the specific "use case"!
Thank you for adding the Arabic translation
Great tips, Ben! I need a new 360 camera soon. I've been using the Topaz suite for my drone photos and it's been amazing.
Thank you Ben. The best "how to" V tour tutorial on YT👍👍👏
Another great video, Ben - thank you. Looking forward to your upcoming vid on software choices!
Awesome Video Ben!
thank you very much. the best explanations that I found in you tube. easy and simple !!!
Thank you for this video, very helpful!
Another great video. Thanks.
Very nice update, thanks a lot Ben
Very Nice Thanks for this😀
Thank you so much! I guess I know what I will be doing next year 😁
Thank you Ben❤
Precious tips!
Cheers Ben!
Thank you SO MUCH!
thank you very much... very nice video
Excellent work
The only 360 camera i can buy here in the Philippines is the insta 360 one x2. I'm not really sure if its enough though. Would you recommend that action camera for vr tour vs the mobile phone?
Ben, can you tell me which camera you would recommend at this point in time (late 2023)? Thanks for the info and for your work!👍
Helpful. 🙏
Superbbbb
hi, I would like to ask if you can get better quality of bracketing in Lightroom or Theta Z1 plugin to get the most of windows highlights. Thanks!
Curious about if the gear you mentioned still is the best in your opinion?
Also am i wrong or is the links wrong?
Help needed pleaseee! Is there a software I can use to save my virtual tour on my Mac or iPhone so I can just upload it to a VR headset anytime I want? I mean to have it locally stored so I don't need to subscribe to a platform like Kuula.
hello ben,
Firstly amazing video you have made.
I wanted to know that can I shoot a 360 Tour with my gopro Hero 9
like your tips
Thanks for the tips. But i have a problem. i have an insta360 one x2, the photo when i see it in the camera app or on the pc when i download it, it looks good, but when i upload it to the software it loses too much quality, either in matterport, kuula or ricohtours.
which is the best software for building virtual tour for travelling? thanks!
Hi Ben, how to make a 360 photo using phone? What is the lens on the phone on the beginning?
Excellent video guide and very helpful as always. Please be aware that the first 2 product links do not come up as you list. I never checked the others. It may be because I’m in the UK.
Many thanks again.
Hmm yeah maybe it is- they are working for me so it must be a UK thing
I want to do a navigation video with a interactive floor plan drawing for use in construction. Any video will be helpful.
Sangat bermanfaat 👍
Hi,
I have GoPro max 360 camera and stick also have. But how to explore in maps. Please suggest a software all in to make edit and share options in application. Say sir...........
Where I live, get a Bushman Monopod it's almost impossible (and price is quite high), same for a lot of others monopods that were recommended on various UA-cam videos. So I got a Theta Z1 (700 euro used on Amazon Warehouse and it's like new!) and paired it with an
iFootage Cobra 2 Strike II. Love it so far, because is a strong, heavy monopod with an amazing release mechanism, but yes, it's quite "thic" and has a big head like a tripod. For Matterport it makes absoutely no difference at all (cause Matterport create a very big blurred nadir) but for others Virtual Tours software and stand alone shooting, the head it's visible, but it perfectly hides the feet of the monopod :D. Thanks for these vids Ben, you're helping me a lot!
P.S. Theta Z1 has the awesome dual fisheye plugin that work like a charm! Of course not usable with Matterport (I hope matterport will improve their HDR algorithm) but for stand alone pics it's amazing!
P.P.S. Do you have any recommendation for an hand held stick for the Z1? Thank you!
Thanks for making these vids ! Can't wait to see the new one on software. I am on a budget and trying to make a dollhouse image of a ancient megalithic site. If that is possible.
Check out my video ‘Matterport vs. Matterport Alternatives’… that covers the best dollhouse software 😁
@@BenClaremont ty watching it now
Is there anyway to upload insta360 images to Matterport using a PC, that is, without using Matterport's cell phone app?
Top 😎👍
How to best Recoh theta sc2 & theta x 360 view camera
Great videos on Virtual Tour. do you have any recommendations on software or app to make floor plan . thanks in advance.

How to get flat images on different angle from 360 camera
What is the easiest way and software to send a whole house tour to real estate agents? I want to start doing this.
Enticing selection of material that might enhance and even supplement the LinkedIn course material on virtual tours and on panorama 360 that is a bit geeky .
How do you share the 3D virtual tour in a sales and rental website? Do you add a link in the description and it users will be redirected to other platform, or many rental websites support those file formats?
Great question
Thank you for all your video tips. Just purchased an Insta360 one x2 and bushman monopod. I plan to create virtual tours using 3dVista. Any issues using Insta360 x2? Should I buy Ricoh theta Z? Thanks
Z1 will deliver far better results… I’d upgrade if you plan on making virtual tours professionally 👍
@@BenClaremont thanks for the tip. Will do.
Is there a virtual tour platform that has a on/off feature? What I'm trying to achieve is shooting a same room in two scenarios, one is unfurnished the other is furnished, would love it if there was a kind of toggle to switch between both view easily. Thanks!
I discovered this tool: ua-cam.com/video/RAKMvhzdLc8/v-deo.htmlsi=3cpndnLavlL5IrCg I know it works with matterport
Sir go to connect (stitch)the images
nice
Is the insta 360 sufficient?
Hello is there a camera under $500 that you would recommend for someone just as a hobby
Matterport & CloudPano for me!
Which program is that? 7:45 ?
Hello friend, can you please give me ideas on how to do virtual tours outside. I am a beginner leaving in South Africa... If possible you can recommend me a place to study virtual tour studies in my country...
Good quick overview Ben. Which is that rotator?
That’s the one from Asteroom 👍
As for anffinity photo, there is a 50% off,.
i tinkered around with it ,and it does that what most photo editors dont do, i can do workflow in a 360 mode !
How to best 360 camara
Loved the 360 comparisons you've posted. In this tour, you say dial in your settings, move room to room and one minute per shot and you're done quickly. Are you shooting auto settings on the X for example? I'm still stuck in the 360 Theta V and need to upgrade. I end up adjusting exposure and ISO in every room, keeping ISO low. Is the X better in auto mode than the Theta V, which I still have to use EV with noise reduction option?
Inbuilt HDR is the best option with the X. I’ll be releasing a video today covering the best workflows for it 👍
@@BenClaremont Thank you so much!!!!!
greetings- dud~ewow~interesting ~
I am confuse, can you unpload your photos to mattaport after editing the photos using where app you decide??
because if you use the android app, you have a option that say import 3d scan and 3d views to you proyect
Nope
@@BenClaremont but you try the Android app?
Hey Ben, during the last segment about building your virtual tour you were building a VT and at 7.44 timestamp which VT editing platform was that?
Kevin - that was Ricoh 360 Tours. I use a variety of different platforms but Ricoh 360 Tours is a favorite - the workflow, especially when using Ricoh cameras is about as simple as they come. And the software automatically does minimal correction/enhancement when you take the picture.
Yeah it’s Ricoh Tours 😁
Hello, I didn’t get why you mentioned removed 3D features from PS. Why do we need that?
Need what? Photoshop was the go-to workflow for a long time.
Do you know if you can upload edited bracketed photos to matterport? I can't seem to find a video on that. I have a Z1 on the way and curious if I can.
You can’t unfortunately
@@BenClaremont ok thanks. Think I saw you had a video on matterport alternatives, I'll have to watch that.
Researching this for my job and it doesn't seem that hard. Just need to right camera and software and you can get the job done. Which like you said there is no shortage of options. Makes me wonder if I could do this for a side hustle. Is this a lucrative venture?
Go for it! If you follow the right strategy you can make good money. My Virtual Tour Pro course shows you exactly how to do it 👍🏻
are there any programs you recommend to make tours interactive?
Yes, see my video ‘which is the best virtual tour software’
What is the best photo resolution for virtual tour
Maximum
Question on the trisio lite 2 can I take still shots also
Yes
@@BenClaremont thank you I'm purchasing it now I'm so glad I found this video cause I was gonna purchase the insta360 go x3 but I love how the trisio has built in rotation
hey ben... im looking for a way to make a virtual tour, that i can just keep in a folder on my pc and go back and run it 5 years from now or more just for me. no hosting etc.
Basically i want to save virtual tours like i would a holiday photo. just a more elaborate and interactive holiday photo. and suggestions?
Pano2vr or 3dvista.
What Adriano said. A virtual tour is more like a website than a photo album, where it needs to be hosted on a website to be active as it’s more complicated than just looking at photos. That said you could also just save the photos, and build the virtual tour again in 5 years 👍
@@BenClaremont thank you ben how do one attract different clients or business to use virtual tours this day is the demand there at the moment.
@@BenClaremont Which is what i have had to do since most of my early Pano's were flash-based and won't run any more... 😱
Lightroom and HDR SNS
Let me ask you something matterport only allowed 360 camera or you can use your DSLR or mirror?
Only 360 cameras, smartphone & the Matterport camera
What do you think about using the insta360 x3 for this purpose?
It can do the job, but the results are a bit more basic than other cameras.
Hey Ben, I really appreciate your work ……… I want to start my virtual tour journey… I use the street view app itself for the virtual tours. I did a little tour of my high school for free,,,, it’s summer here and I want to make money using my 360 photography,,, I have no idea how to get clients,,,,,,,, pls help(ps. I have an Insta360 one x2)
www.virtualtourpro.com/top10tips 😉
Can you give me an example of the recommendation of "one shot per room", is that literally, one photo and then move one? Doesn't the 360 take multiple photos?
No it takes one photo.
Man was about to DM you Man
You think the insta360 one rs is not good for virtual tours? Thanks.
The 1-inch edition is 😁
How can we download the tour we create so we can upload on our social media handles
You can add links within the virtual tour as hotspots 👍
Friend if I’m making a Vr tour for a hotel, but the pool is outdoor, can be included in the tour?
Of course
@@BenClaremont and can it be in the 3d model? Thank you man
Which software do you recommend to stitch my 360?
The free software of app of your camera brand. Check their website 👍
Can we use premier pro to make the tour? Insta 360 x2 is my camera.
No- premiere pro is a video editing software.
@@BenClaremont yup but I thought with the power it has just maybe lol but thanks
How about creating a virtual tour of a 3d project. Theres nothing to shoot with camera but to upload a 3d space and create a virtual tour.
Does the likes of an iPhone 13/14pro and the insta360 flow result in better images for virtual tours than a 360 camera? Just a thought, as multiple 4k images stitched has got to be better than one at a total of 5.6 or 8K? Certainly wouldn’t look as professional though and I assume exposure difference become an issue?
Can u make a video on how to build a tour for Google street view?
I have a street view tutorial on my channel already- and a complete GoThru tutorial covering how to make a street view tour with it in my VTP course 👍
Pivo or Asteroom for iPhone?
See my Matterport vs Matterport alternatives video 👍🏻
This is pretty simple
Indeed
Where is the products link?
In the description
Great video but surprised you didnt mention the Insta 360 x 2.
I didn’t mention because I don’t recommend Insta360 cameras for virtual tours.
@@BenClaremont Why?
@@user-qj4hn2do1f Theta cameras have bigger & better sensors. Insta360 is the better choice for video and Ricoh for photos.
Do you know any software that the customer can measure in? As well as, merge drone pictures/map of the roof with a doll house to make a complete virtual twin that can be measured on by the customer.
Yes, see my ‘Matterport vs. Matterport Alternatives’ video 👍
@@BenClaremont I just watched that video, I did not really see an answer to my question.
I am looking for a platform that will integrate drone 3D map into a dollhouse to make a full inside and outside 3D twin.
And be able to measurement within that 3D twin.
@@victoryautmotive1582 you can do so in matterport, but it costs $69 dollars a month
@@SamCo99 does anyone happen to have an example of this. I am looking to 3D scan the house, attic and the roof with a drone and be able to measure it all for load point calculations for some engineering.
So no one can show me an example of this? Because I don’t see anything about this for matterport.
How do you decide what to charge the customer?
Check out my course for detailed pricing breakdowns 👍🏻
insta x2 or x3 compatible?
Yes any 360 camera can make a virtual tour
The only thing missing was if there are free platforms for footage.
Not sure what you mean by that. Virtual tours are nothing to do with ‘footage’.
Hello. How much u charge for this work?
I cover pricing in-depth in Virtual Tour Pro- link in the description
What about insta 360
What about it?
The ending sentence that had typed early this am or last night was "about hope everybody is fine with the comment that every country has its defense." So got to thinking that I should of explained my comment pertaining to what I had really meant.
Please explain Photoshop discontinuing 3D? I still see it in my current version and the article you referenced is almost a year old and talks about next gen 3D. Are we doomed?
Hi Paul- unless you haven’t updated in a while, 3D mode is too glitchy and unreliable for 360 editing now. I covered this in my video a few months ago ‘the new best 360 photo editing workflow’ 👍
@@BenClaremont Thanks, just expanding into 360. I'll go look at your other video.
Serious customers are still in demand for using DSLR cameras. I can't imagine using a "snap camera" in my gothic architecture project or when I am documenting subterranean caves or mines. I was pioneering VR journalism at the end of 90-is and of 2000 and my DSLS output quality was much better than nowadays Theta Z1 or new Insta. Even my 360 surround videos from 2005 which were made with the attached mirror to video camera were in a range of nowadays low budged 360 "snap" cameras (bellow 2000€). The same is with my geographic work documenting the thru-hike trails - 300+ km long... there is no such "snap" camera to do that so fast and with such quality. Snap 360° cameras are fine for touristic and personal use not professional work... maybe only for very low-budged clients or naive ones. I am with VRP (virtual reality panoramas - as it was an old term) - surround photography for over 29 years. Made in Slovenia/ Europe.
Hi Moja, it sounds like you have worked on some fantastic projects and I tip my hat to you for that. And I agree that using a DSLR is the best method to capture 360 panoramas, especially for bigger clients. However I disagree that 360 cameras should not be used professionally or only for naive clients. Not all businesses can afford it or need a DSLR, and the majority of virtual tours right now are for these smaller clients like real estate, small businesses etc. 360 cameras produce a great, quick & affordable result for them and these clients are more than happy. There is no ‘one size fits all’ solution, not yours, nor mine.
@@BenClaremont I use one-shot 360 cameras where needed. Example inside small models, bird nests, apiary and similar or documenting war zones e.t.c... but the problem is that I am inside the image, the example I started the City view project (1993) and was documenting the mountain trails and streets of towns. High skill of "from the hand shooting" was needed at that time. I made a rig for three DSLR cameras in 2001 and the quality was great but was a problem that that rig needed to be above my head - me in the nadir, same is today with one-shot cameras. Indeed are great for someone who wants to be only creative but is not willing to invest time to learn about photography. when I am documenting the e.g. mountain trail the workflow with DSLR and the monopod is much faster than Theta Z1 and the final image is 25Kx12.5K, which is 16x times more resolution. I am getting older and alpine climbing became harder for me with a 25 Kg backpack (sleeping system, tent, water supply...and equipment).
Sure shot cameras are fine for locations which are no historical value like you mentioned real estate, hotels,...
I found a great value in 360 surround video cameras for documenting the bike trails and then using them as an addition to the room -the gym bike system. I did most of such tours in time from 2014-16... over 1000 km and were used in gyms, but more as the promotion as in that time the HMD sets were heavy and people were sweating...but my idea remains and I believe will blossom when the super light HMDs will come.
UA-cam is not really my "media" but it might be an interesting example of my demonstration of shooting "100 panoramas in one hour" I did ten years ago...will post the link below this post... in case it wouldn't "pass" to publish...
