Lomopedia: Spinner 360°

Inspired by a futuristic camera concept from the 1980s, the Lomography Spinner 360° combines snapshooting and panoramic photography.

The Lomography Spinner 360° is a panoramic camera introduced by the Lomography Society International in 2010. It is powered by a manually-controlled rubber band drive that allows the camera to spin on its own axis and capture a full 360° panorama with one pull of a cord. It uses standard 35mm film and can create up to eight full 360° panoramas in one 36-exposure roll, including sprockets.

To complement its capabilities, Lomography has also launched the Spinner 360° Motorizer, an attachment that allows hand-free use of the Spinner 360° camera, in 2012.
