Optimized Photogrammetry Setup for Scanning Indoor 3D Props
Most photogrammetry tutorials tell you what to buy. This one, by 3D artist Grzegorz Baran, explains why. Over an hour he walks through the indoor setup he uses to scan props, including the mistakes he made while building it, so you can skip them.
What you will learn
- The inverse square law and how light falloff affects even illumination
- Depth-of-field trade-offs and the camera settings that keep a whole object sharp
- Using a turntable for consistent, repeatable captures
- Failures, lessons learned and the improvements that followed
