For some reason the site doesn't like me linking my flickr. Uploaded them through Tapatalk. Should show now.

Just curious, how do you take pictures like these? (Don't have the phone yet)

 

[djkleric]

Just take a photosphere and after it renders, at the bottom right there is an option to make them. Looks like one of the tiny planets.

I don't see this option. Do I have to first create an entire "sphere" (that is, 360 deg)? I have so far tried with about 180 deg side to side and perhaps 45 deg up and down from the "normal" plane.

 

[N4Newbie]

Okay, so I just read elsewhere that you do indeed need to shoot a full 360 deg image to enable the Tiny Planet tool.

Will have to give that a try later...

 

[greydarrah]

I'm sorry, but I can't get this one figured out. I can take a 360 degree panoramic, but I'm not seeing how to turn it into a tiny planet image. Is there a separate app you need to install, or is this in the native camera? Could you give me a step by step?

 

[Pre-dawn raid]

Tiny planets FTW! This is a really cool effect although I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. Thanks for bringing this to light OP.

Since images are worth more than words...

How did you get your tiny planets to not have a black hole in the middle? When I take a photosphere, there is always a black empty part where I am standing straight down.

 

[minnemike]

Maybe, does it give you a target straight down if you step to the side and hold the phone over where you were just standing?

 

[Brent Pierce]

No. At least, not when I tried last week.

I think you just tap that Tiny Planet icon at the bottom right corner of the screen.

these are awesome you guys probably look like psychos moving your phone around in a 360 deg manner. haha pretty cool though.

Seriously. I half expected to be questioned by police during my recent trip to NYC when I was taking photospheres of landmarks. Sheesh!

Take the photosphere in portrait mode, not landscape.

Man, this makes me feel like an idi0t (mostly because I'm a photographer), but I just can't get this working. I tried in portrait mode and still have the big black center. I also can't figure out how some people seem to have moved their camera both up/down, as well as turning 360 degrees. Mine is always forcing me to turn 360 while keeping the camera level.
