The 360-degree camera accessory includes a camera module disposed partially within the camera accessory, where the camera module including an optical lens configured to capture an image of a scene. The 360-degree camera accessory also includes a rigid structure disposed within the accessory to support the camera module, and a deformable structure disposed between a camera barrel that surrounds the optical lens of the camera module and the rigid structure. The deformable structure can compensate for movement of the camera module to improve image capturing of the scene.
