Hello! I'm a real estate photographer in Texas looking to expand into virtual tours. I bought a Ricoh Theta Z1 and subscribed to a virtual tour hosting service. I'm looking for training specifically about how to create content for businesses on the Google Street View app. I want to be able to sell virtual tours and related services to help businesses and other organizations publish their virtual tour presence on Google Street View, social media, and their own websites. My first foray into publishing on Google Street View produced more questions (about using the GSV app) than answers and I realize I need some kind of formal training in the use of the GSV app. If you know of any training for virtual tour service providers specific to how to sell Google Street View services I would appreciate it if you would share a link.
My website is higherviewsimaging.com.

Hi! I got into 360 when Ricoh Theta came out. Unfortunately I couldn't keep playing with it at the time BUT now I can yay!
I can't wait to start virtual tours! I have an Insta360 but I am saving for a better camera. I was thinking of taking Ben Claremonts course. Has anyone here taken his course? do you think its necessary?
Thanks!

Hi WGAN members.
I am Salim Al Arafati from Oman, co-founder and CEO of Virtual Eye company. Our core business is to deliver virtual tours to our customers in real estate industry.
I am really happy to discover this forum.
Now we are using Richo theta V camera and we are considering to move to camera with better qulaity.
Do you know how quick relatively is matterport pro2 compared to theta V in shooting whole house? And what is the longest distance can be made between 2 consecutive scans?
And is matterport pro2 smooth if I want to generate virtual tours from cupix?

I'm self employed in Victoria, BC Canada and new to the world of 360 subsequently I need to learn at a rapid pace. Just bought an Insta360 one X and am now deciding on VT software. Tech changes so quickly it's hard to know what to use and who will be around in the long run. Help during this early learning curve would be my biggest support.
Best...Tim

Hi everyone, I'm Sim Cha
I'm new to the whole pro photography scene.
I always loved talking pictures and am very interested in pursuing a business in photography.
I'm based in NYC.
I want to also take this opportunity to thank Dan the man for starting this forum. In the few hours I have browsed, I am astounded by the wealth of information that can be found here.
That needs to be recognized and applauded.
It is by no small part due to the fact that Dan may be the most engaged person in the business of an informational forum like this.
I will say that IF I do make the leap from curious spectator to entrepreneur I will definitely spring for one of the paid subscription models here as the free content is really worth a lot ...
I am super impressed at the same time with all the knowledgeable and friendly people on this forum sharing their knowledge.

Hi,

I found the forum doing some digging around looking for advice comparing the Pro2 to some popular 360 cameras, I've been browsing and found a lot of great advice.

Looking to start a virtual tour business (ideally to scale and hire people), in the planning stages currently. Was contemplating the Z1 but I'm leaning on getting the Pro2 instead.

@holzr - If your plan is to create Matterport tours, get the Pro 2. Yes, it costs more and cannot shoot exteriors in direct sunlight, however it captures REAL depth data which means accurate measurements, floor plans and a world of difference. IMHO, the Z1 is a great 360° camera but should be viewed as an adjunct to the Pro cameras, not a replacement.

Good luck with your plans!
