The Lomographic Spinner 360°[1] 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[2].The Spinner 360° 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° 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 Roundshot.
