The [[Lomography|Lomographic]] '''Spinner 360&deg;'''<ref>The bottom of the handle carries the inscription: 'Spinner Dolphin 360&deg;'</ref> is a mechanical 360 degree [[panorama camera]] powered by a spring-driven clockwork mechanism that rotates the entire camera head and smoothly advances the [[35mm]] film. It was introduced in 2010<ref>[https://microsites.lomography.com/spinner-360/history/ Panoramic 360 degree History] at [https://www.lomography.com/ Lomography]</ref>.The Spinner 360&deg; is based on the principle of a slit camera whereby the film is moved at a set speed behind a slit aperture that exposes a continuous panorama onto the moving film.  A pull cord winds the clockwork for a single shot (or fraction thereof if not fully pulled). The film transport is effected by a rubber band. The 35mm camera is produced in China.

The Spinner 360&deg; has two settings, 'cloudy' (approx. f/8) and 'sunny' (approx. f/16). The rotation speed depends on the fatigue of the rubber band, according to the product literature, is to vary between 1/125th and 1/250th sec. The available exposure options leave much to chance and variability is high.

Comparable, but mechanically more reliable cameras are the [[Globuscope]] and the [[Seitz|Seitz Roundshot]].
