Ricoh has been making some of the more approachable, if not the most stunning, 360-degree cameras for a few years now. Today it’s catching that Theta line cameras up to the current competition with a new version that shoots in 4K, announced at the IFA trade show in Berlin, Germany.

The new camera, called the Theta V, comes in the same slim, easily handheld form factor as Thetas past. But this one costs $429 and captures a 360-degree sphere of 4K UHD footage by way of two f2.0 lenses, each tied to a 12-megapixel CMOS sensor. (Those sensors overlap and combine for 14-megapixel 360-degree images as well.) The Theta V’s images (still and moving) are supposed to have better clarity and dynamic range than its predecessors, as well as more onboard storage (19GB) and faster transfer speeds. It can live stream 4K footage in 360 degrees as well.
