I travelled to Spain to observe the 2026 total solar eclipse. In addition to my regular cameras, I took a Vantrue E360 to get a whole-sky view of the event.

I set up the E360 in hand-held mode in a horizontal orientation, with one lens aimed vertically up to the sky and the other lens pointing down to the ground. I set the E360 in fisheye + fisheye mode which records a separate video file for each lens.

I recorded in full 30fps with audio, however I have edited this to playback at 30x speed to give a timelapse effect. You can see the Moon's shadow arriving from the north (right side), then leaving to the south.


The sun was about 7° above the horizon. I chose this viewpoint surrounded by hills to photograph the eclipse above Castillo de Osma.

Wow, this is amazing! 🌑✨

Thank you so much for taking the E360 all the way to Spain and capturing the 2026 total solar eclipse in such a creative way. The whole-sky view and the timelapse of the Moon’s shadow are really impressive.

Really appreciate you sharing the setup details and the footage with us!
