    iZugar Z2XC FAQ

    Why Z2XC?
    There are numerous benefits of using two lenses to capture the full spherical video:
    • Synchronization on multiple video camera has been a long nightmare for 360 video makers. Although software can help finding the most approximation of the sync points among the cameras, the random behavior of the camera shutter made video stitching a very tough work. With the revolutionary super fisheye lens at 194 deg FOV, we can take the full spherical environment with just two camera yet keeping the output at the highest resolution available, and we can use the official Gopro Dual Hero module to synchronize two cameras. No more hassle to locate the best sync points as the video sources were perfectly synced.
    • Parallax is another physical limitation of taking 360 video. With conventional 6 unmodified Gopro camera, objects have to be kept at 2 meters away from the camera or it shall be challenging to keep the output image from breaking. With our super fisheye lens with 194 deg FOV, objects beyond as short as 0.4m can be stitched perfectly, enabling seamless 360 video in a narrow corridor for indoor real estate shooting, which is in high demand but impossible to do with traditional multi-camera devices.
    • Tiny size & light weight can be another huge benefit. It can be installed on smaller drone for higher portability with longer flight time, the tiny size make it easily blended into the scene without making much disturbance to the scene, especially useful for capturing live events.
    What is the output resolution of Z2XC?
    Z2XC can get full spherical view covered by using the 4:3 video modes for capturing the full image circle.
    • Usually with two 1440p input video, the size of output video is 2800×1400@30fps; The new 2.7k 4:3 mode on Hero4Black can make 4000×2000@30fps output with AVP;
    • With Photo mode, the output resolution is slightly more than 5000x2500px.
    Why you are using iZugar MKX19 Fisheye in Z2XC?
    The iZugar MKX19 Fisheye lenses provides more overlapping which make the stitching result and color blending more promising.
    This special 194 degree fisheye lenses that designed and manufactured by iZugar is a almost theta lense, which make it possible to restore the image in an undistorted way.
    The lens quality is much better than the original lens or the lens in the market and this make the iZugar lens special.
    Is Z2XC taking full spherical coverage?
    Yes, it’s full spherical. Thanks to the super wide coverage, the lens is seeing behind the camera and able to blend with each others. The zenith & nadir spot were captured nicely with Z2XC.
    Are iZugar lenses, rigs, accessories compatible with GoPro HERO3 & 4?
    iZugar lenses, rigs, accessories are compatible with GoPro HERO4 Black, HERO3 Silver, HERO3 & HERO3+ accessories.
    Can I recharge my GoPro batteries with the cameras mounted?
    Yes. You can simultaneously charge and record with the cameras mounted by Z2XC, Z3X, Z4X. To do this, you can use the supplied USB cable. Use that to connect your camera to USB wall charger or auto charger that outputs 5V and 1A.  You might want some mini-USB plugs with slimmer design. It is also easy to craft the mount a little to fit your cables. From our experience, a fully-charged battery approximate last 45mins when shooting continuously.
    Can I use other lens with the iZugar mount?
    With iZugar premium lens, you can get full spherical pano if the full 180x180x180 field of view was captured by the cameras. However, most lenses available in the market are not making sharp & nice color at the rim zone of the circular image, making the stitching work very difficult and down grade the output quality. iZugar tested over 30 mini lenses from the market before making our very own one. We designed our own lens to maximize the FOV based on GoPro Hero 4 and produce sharp image at the edge, enabling sharp panorama at all regions.
    How about POV360?
    Immersive POV 360 can also be possible with the Z2XC system. With the super short working radius, producers can set the system at the chest or shoulder of the actors, and audience shall able to see at the very real first person perspective as if they were seeing what the actor seeing, without broken images everywhere.
    How can I control multiple cameras?
    Pair your multiple cameras with 1 WIFI before installation to the mount. 
    Once the multiple cameras are paired to a remote, the remote controls all cameras at the same time.
    How to choose the right microSD card?
    You will need a SD card which is fast enough to record 4K video, has some of the fastest transfer and in-camera speeds.
    We recommend to get a UHS-1 cards with 4K UHD, speed up to 95MB/s to support the camera.

Users can also view the 360 immersively on smartphone HMD adaptors like iZugar ZVR-lite, Google Cardboard or the Samsung Gear VR with 360 video playback apps, such as Kolor Eyes player (iOS/android) or VRplayer (android) or our new app. Users can still track the 360 and display them nicely with full screen without the HMD adapter. iZugar_3DViewer
    How to stitch videos together?
    Stitching work can be done fairly fast with a simple click when you apply the lens preset correct.
    You may view the stitching video and download the preset file here.
    The preset file serves as a quick start and optimization is needed to fix the parallax artifacts.
    Is it difficult to change the lens by myself?
    Lens change of Hero4/Hero3+/Hero 3 Camera is easy with the following steps: izugarlenschange

    Please find below the lens change video.

       
    Is there any warranty on the modified GoPro®?
    Product warranty by GoPro® becomes invalid after applying any small modification or disintegration onto the product. <br> In this case, iZugar cannot take any responsibility for any modification applied to the GoPro® product.
    However, we will stress-tests the GoPro before any modification.
    Is Z2XC compatible with the stereoscopic module by Gopro?
    Yes, with an optical mount for Hero3+ Black, user can get perfect sync video by using with the stereo 3D module by Gopro. The mount have more space in between to accommodate the two modules, available upon request.
    The Z2XC shows 1 cam in landscape while the other in portrait mode.
    Why is that? Doesn’t that hurt the stitching process since the aspect ratios are off with 4:3 modes?
    We are shooting in full circular Fisheye image with iZugar MKX19 Fisheye lenses which allow us take everything and stitch well in most normal shooting conditions.
    The original design was inherited from the HERO3+ generation which we can work with the stereo sync module with short cabling.
    Unless in extreme conditions, such as fast moving scenes, the 2704x2028px@30fps video input mode is not able to catch the object clearly, you could select the 1440p mode at 60 or 80fps output. or you may consider Z3X or Z4X for 4K output.
    What’s make iZugar Armor Mount so unique?
    The iZugar Armor Mount made with Aircraft Grade Aluminum, which helps to avoid cameras overheating issue. This unique material is durable, and also extremely light.
    Why Z2XC is useful for shooting Live streaming 360 for VR?
    Live streaming 360 was used to be complex and costly as a server need to take 6 HDMI feeds and stitch them in real time before it can be transmitted over the network. With just 2 camera and pre-calibrated lenses, we can stream the dual video signal directly to the network, and render the seamless 360 video on-the-fly at the client side like with a smartphone app or desktop with Oculus Rift, without the need of an expensive realtime stitching workstation. With the cost reduction for more than 10 times, we shall expect live streaming 360 shall be more popular and serve the world better.

    iZugar Z3XC FAQ

    Why Z3XC?
    The Z3X was designed for addressing the daily problems of professional 360 video producers who may need to take 360 video in compact space. Usually they have to set the video system on a very long pole in order to get the seamless stitching result, however sometimes it’s just not possible due to physical limitation of the space or it’s unable to balance while shooting, such as filming 360 on a surf board. By having excessive overlapping between cameras, we have more forgiving margin to work with and we can have much shorter working radius, shrinking from traditionally 2m down to 0.5m with the Z3X. With Z3XC, 360 producers can now take indoor seamless full spherical 360 video without broken images everywhere. Without using a long pole, we can make the 360 video at a much normal first person perspective, which shall make the 360 more immersive as viewer shall no longer peeking a virtual scene from a remote spot, as they can BE at the center of the scene.
    What is the output resolution of Z3X?
    The Z3X can work with 16:9 4k/2.7k mode, as well as taking full circular image with 4:3 modes.
    • Usually with three 2.7k input video, the size of output video is 4K@30fps;
    • The new 4k@30 mode of hero4 is likely supported, making almost 6k output;
    • With Photo mode, the output resolution is 5800×2900 pixel.

    iZugar Z6X3DC FAQ

    What is the output resolution of Z6X3DC?
    Although Z6X3DC can work with 16:9 4k/2.7k mode, the 3D mount need more forgiving margin to cover extra parallax & it work best with the full circular image being captured:
    • With six 1440p input video, the size of output video is 3000×3000@30/48fps with AVP;
    • Making 4K output with 2.7k 4:3 mode of Hero4
    • With the Photo mode, the output resolution is 6000×6000 pixel with AVP.
    • Click the sample below
    Z6X3DC Sample Resolution  
    Why you are using iZugar MKX19 Fisheye lenses in Z6X3DC?
    The iZugar MKX19 Fisheye lenses provides more overlapping which make the stitching result and color blending more promising.
    This special 194 degree fisheye lenses that designed and manufactured by iZugar is a almost theta lense, which make it possible to restore the image in an undistorted way.
    The lens quality is much better than the original lens or the lens in the market and this make the iZugar lens special.
    Is Z6X3D taking full spherical coverage?
    Unlike other 3D rigs available in the market, we have good 3D alignment in mind when designing the system. Other systems may only have good 3D in certain particular regions, or having broken images everywhere that irritating the 3D effects, or with very narrow vertical field of view. Our solution provide good stitch & good sense of 3D in most regions, except the very top & bottom regions. the Z6X3D made a trade off for better zenith spot and leave a small hole at the nadir, where tripod or other mounting located. The effective coverage is about 360x175deg. The more than necessary overlapping allow seamless stitching for both eyes at reasonable working radius, and our special tilting up design shall able to keep the zenith spot nicely and users can have good sense of 3D at very high elevation.
    Are iZugar lenses, rigs, accessories compatible with GoPro HERO3 & 4?
    iZugar lenses, rigs, accessories are compatible with GoPro HERO4 Black, HERO3 Silver, HERO3 & HERO3+ accessories.
    Can I use other lens with the iZugar mount?
    With iZugar premium lens, you can get full spherical pano if the full 180x180x180 field of view was captured by the cameras. However, most lenses available in the market are not making sharp & nice color at the rim zone of the circular image, making the stitching work very difficult and down grade the output quality. iZugar tested over 30 mini lenses from the market before making our very own one. We designed our own lens to maximize the FOV based on GoPro Hero 4 and produce sharp image at the edge, enabling sharp panorama at all regions.
    Can order the Z6X3D Rig displayed in Photokina2014?

    Z6X3DC is a Made-to-Order product. Each of the Z6X3DC rig will be printed with an industrial grade SLA 3D printer with highest precision & strength available in the market.

    K2 Pro with iZugar MKX200 FAQ

    K2 Pro – Can I use ND filter with iZugar MKX200?
    There is no ND filter in the system. You can stop down the aperture to f/11 if needed. Some users may put some gel sheet at the rear side of the lens, but we do not recommend it as the distance between the lens and the sensor is really close and it will also void the 1-year limited warranty.
    K2 Pro – How to control?
    For VR180 we want both camera use the same shooting parameters, and set the aperture to the same value as well. Unlike the K1 Pro, this is a pre-production edition that do not have unified control, so we have to control them manually. The camera on the right side can be controlled as the usual way as the standard E2, with a tiny screen. However in this pre-production unit the camera on the left side does not have a display and buttons on the top, so we have to set the parameters like video resolution / ISO / color mode / encoder… with a Smartphone app via a type-C cable (a lightning-to-typeC cable will be very handy if you are an iPhone user), through wifi to your smartphone app, or connect to a router and control with the Z CAM Controller on your computer. Exposure and white balance can be set as co-ordinated mode in the multicam menu, you can disable them and set everything manual.
    K2 Pro – Quick Reference Guide (For New Users)
    K2 Pro – User Manual
    K2 Pro – What is the output resolution?
    K2 Pro uses the same sensor as the standard E2 which is at 4.63 µm grade. Each sensor cell is 54% larger than the Sony A7R IV, that is how we get these smooth footage even in extremely low light situations. However the large sensor pitch size shall inevitably limit the output size. The iZugar MKX200 fisheye lens is tailor made for E2, and it is perfectly match on the 2772p 4:3 mode. After unwarping the native output resolution is at 5.5K. We prefer to export as 5120×2560@60 for high frame rate content, or rescale to 5760×2880@30 for mono for distribution. Anyway the iZugar MKX200 fisheye lens is very sharp from edge to edge, scaling up a bit or even to 6K will not have obvious impact to the final render quality.

For shipment to Russia, custom clearance time and tariff are varies depending on many reasons: such as times, items, destination and custom offices. We recommend our Russia customer to use a Freight Forwarding Company or at least a Freight Broker to make the customs clearance process smooth for the shipment.
