GoPro's decision to delay its Karma drone until the holiday is sad news. But cheer up, the company's just released the first footage from its Omni VR camera. And it's absolutely stunning.
The VR camera, which consists of a chassis that holds six Hero4 cameras, launches in August for $4,999.99.

The 360-degree video is viewable in 4K (2160p) resolution and was shot over the course of three days.
Although GoPro says the video was shot using prototype Omni cameras and the consumer version will have significant quality improvements, the footage is damn good. You can hardly see any of the stitching seams between the six cameras.
"VR is a whole new experience that can fully transport someone into another experience," Woodman told Mashable last year. "The ability to promote empathy through VR, the better it is for people to have a human connection. It's gonna open up all kinds of viewing experiences and expand the lifespan of content."
