THat means when you're viewing video or still in the headset you can see the depth effect.
It shoots 8K stills, 6K videos and 4K slow motion at 100 frames per second.
There's also live streaming support and digital image stabilization.
The camera has onboard controls but all settings can be tweaked through the desktop or phone app.
You'll get around one hour of recording time from the battery depending on your shooting settings.
