The recently announced iPhone 5 gets a new camera with panorama mode that allows us to take panorama images. Which however, could only capture 240°of scenery.
May I know any better solution for panoramic capturing with iPhone.😱
 
DMD Panorama is good. But only 360° photos. Recently I just bought HotPano mini from indiegogo. For both 360° photos and videos capturing.😛

I personally always use Panorama 360 on my iPhone 4s. It's completely 360 degrees and you can also view it in stereographic mode (aka little planets).

Downside with this app though is that you have to keep everything still, must have a lot of light, and I usually spin in a circle three times (no lie, one full spin for top half, middle half, and bottom half for panorama).

It works though! I've gotten some really good results from it.

Nice pic! Could I make 360-degree videos with it?

I'm waiting for these guys to make one for the iPhone 5. A Fisheye lens will definitely get you 120° more.

Thanks. And no, it doesn't shoot video in 360 degrees.

But theres an accessory for the 4s/4 that enables you to shoot and take pictures panoramically, but I don't think they have it for the 5 yet.
