Hi everyone,
Dumb question, I did several photos of a shoe but I had my camera in a tripod so I manually rotated my shoe.
Results were very very bad.
Today I made a new test were I moved around the shoe and results were good (to start).
So my question is : Can I have the camera fix and rotate the models manually? What about if I rotate the model with a turntable?
Thank you
I’m in your same boat–just started using the software and scanned a shoe! a turntable does work. I use an automated one one called the Syrp Genie Mini which is made for time-lapse photography on a tripod but it works great for scanning! There is another one out there specifically for turntable photography but I forget the name of it.
So like I mentioned a turntable definitely works. I have some issues of bumpiness in my model that I’m trying to figure out but you can see in the results below that it def works.
Hi Justin,
I saw some examples were users used some turntable and it worked so I assume it´s because the center of rotation is not moving, when compared to rotate the shoe manually. This is my guess but I would like some more experience user or support to confirm this if possible.
I have a new Canon M50, I don´t know if it´s a big deal but that camera profile isn’t in the RC database also.
I´m still with a demo and playing also with my camera as I´m new to it also, so any other tips/tricks are welcome :-)
Thanks
Sorry that link I posted above looks dead, check it now. Turntable scanning definitely should work as that’s what I did for the shoe scan. I had my shoe setup vertically (instead of sitting flat on a surface) so basically the center of rotation was stationary during the scan. I know it’s not a perfect scan but you can see turntable definitely works.
@paulo: no, it’s not, more info here: https://support.capturingreality.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001530852-Yellow-triangle-with-an-exclamation-mark
