It would be extremely frustrating if they release a new camera prior to fixing their software, as its not the hardware thats the issue. I have been waiting patiently for Garmin to resolve these issues since I purchased my camera back in Sept 2017. Here are the five core video shooting modes you’ve got on the VIRB 360: A) 360° at 4K (stitched on camera) B) Front lens only at 1080p (various frame rates) C) Rear lens only at 1080p (various frame rates) D) RAW shooting at 5. I would love to use the full potential of this camera one day. It is unfortunate because the VIRB 360 is actually a great piece of hardware, but suffers from lack of supporting software. I have come across numerous other bugs that I will not enumerate here, but suffice it to say that it is borderline unusable. Details that were in the original raw files are lost entirely, its as if the footage was downsampled to a lower resolution and then upsampled to 5.7k again. While 5.7k offers twice the resolution of a 4k video and has almost 3x the bitrate, the Virb Edit stitched 5.7k video looks worse than the in camera stiched 4k video. I own the VIRB 360 and one of they key features is its ability to shoot 5.7k RAW footage with its two cameras, which you can then stitch later into a 360 spherical video using Virb Edit. This software has a ton of potential, but unfortunately it lacks some basic features and the whole thing is extremely buggy.
