About the Ricoh Theta Z1

The Ricoh Theta Z1, released in 2019, is a 360-degree camera with dual 1-inch sensors — the largest ever fitted in a consumer 360 camera. Its 23-megapixel images and RAW capture produce spherical photos with detail and dynamic range far exceeding other 360 cameras. The Theta Z1 proved that immersive photography could achieve quality suitable for professional virtual tours and serious creative work.

RetroCam recreates this look using real optical data: color temperature curves, aberration profiles, grain structure, and tonal response. The result is a live camera effect that feels authentic, not just a filter slapped on top.
