Well yes and no- there are many reasons you’d want to set the starting POV for 360°- like a critical plot point or just some key aspect of a shot that you wish to direct attention to. Just leaving it random can lessen the impact or just look plain weird or unfortunate like a closeup of someone’s posterior or looking down a dirty alley etc. I saw the ability to set starting POV in action at Adobe’s booth at IBC but to be honest I am not sure if it’s implemented in the shipping version of Premiere.
