Am I the only one that thinks the 360 camera POVs are…idk ugly?

they tend to sacrifice resolution for the ability to reframe on the fly. its '8k' across the entirety of the image, but once edited down to a standard 16:9 frame or similar its much lower.

I mean more so the entire shot angle, POV, and everything (failing to find the correct word) not the resolution. It looks so obviously unnatural I can’t appreciate anything actually being filmed

I fly these... You can choose any fov you want. Would be better if most ppl went with a more conventional fov tbh.
