We've all seen them, but how can you create one?
As you shop for your first or next home, research a new vacation location, or (like me) cruise around Street View, you might stop and wonder: “How are these 3D tours made?” The answer is less complex than one might think, thanks to Matterport, and its line of 3D modeling solutions.
From allowing the use of smartphones and third-party VR cameras for scanning to streamlining the acquisition process with its online platform and companion application to offering a reliable, field proof,

Anyone who has shopped for a home knows that it is difficult to evaluate a property from an online profile. Not all real estate agents have access to high-end photographers, and most importantly, it is difficult to determine the size of a space from a photo. Matterport revolutionized the industry with its turnkey solutions, empowering real estate professionals, business owners, and hospitality managers to create a “digital twin” of their property, inviting potential residents or customers to tour the digital twin on popular web platforms.

The original WEEBILL LAB featured some of my favorite innovations in the world of gimbals. When the industry focused on providing the most compact gimbal, or the smoothest stabilization, Zhiyun-Tech offered an option focused on being the most intuitive to set up and comfortable to operate. The WEEBILL-2 has doubled down on the innovations that made the WEEBILL LAB and

I had the opportunity to work with the Anton/Bauer Titon Base Battery Kit for the Blackmagic Pocket 4K and 6K cameras and jumped at the chance. The Titon Base battery has a QR (Quick Release) plate that allows you to mount your camera on it for a tight shooting package with extended run time. I’m accustomed to using external batteries, since I started with Aaton and ARRI SR film cameras, as well as ENG cameras and

Without question, the Sony a7S III is a mirrorless camera meant for video. Impressive specs and image quality are wonderful, but it has the same problems for video as every other mirrorless camera: its form factor is better suited to stills. One solution is to get a cage, such as this Master Kit from SmallRig that I was able to take for a spin.

If you are looking for the perfect camera or lens to get for that special videographer in your life, that is a tall order. But accessories, now—accessories make the camera package. However, camera accessory purchase decisions can be difficult to make for someone else, but don’t worry—for anyone who owns gear, there is always maintenance. Owning camera gear invariably leads to needing accessories to get the most out of your kit, and maintaining the kit requires expendables.

The Titon batteries, from Anton Bauer, are an interesting release because they’re entry-level models, yet they have nothing but top features. They were designed without any buttons or an LED gauge, so they can be offered at an accommodating cost. That’s how they were introduced at NAB 2019. Non-essential features were removed to achieve this. But at the same time, they have a 10A output, intelligent algorithm, P-Tap and USB ports, and one of the widest operating temperatures ever. They also feature 1,000 charge/discharge cycles, a large LCD,

Virtually every product Bright Tangerine releases has a key feature or two that solves major problems, and quality is a standard with them. This fully applies to their Titan arms. Whereas articulating arms commonly have a rosette-type center mechanism, Bright Tangerine’s Titan arms have a reinvented design based on a new center mechanism. The company calls it "core transmission technology.” This new technology generates 2.5 tons of pressure that’s

Many professional broadcast cameras today can livestream to various platforms using their firmware and an adapter, but they usually require a step in between, such as a computer or a streaming box with specialized software to direct video to a media server such as Facebook Live—until now. JVC is updating its professional GY-HM250 UHD 4K Streaming Camcorder firmware with integrated support for Facebook Live's API so you can stream right from your

Monitors are flawed. They display limited color space, usually sRGB (although newer ones can display a wider color gamut), they age and change over time, and different backlight technologies will affect how the images are displayed. Let us not forget that the viewing conditions make a big difference in how we perceive, and need to be considered. For text, this isn't important, but for the visual media, this can make a huge difference. I remember the analog days of trying to calibrate the field monitor by eye, using the various test patterns

In Part 1 of this article, I discussed my experience using the RED GEMINI camera brain with 5K S35 sensor and I mentioned that this was really my first time using a RED camera, shooting raw, and using RED CINE-X PRO software to output. There is a bit of a learning curve and, to be truthful, it is a

If you are reading this, you probably have two main questions, so I'm going to cut right to the chase and address them both. First, the RED DSMC2 GEMINI 5K S35, which has a 5K Super35mm sensor, is a great camera; I enjoyed working with it and would do so again with no reservations. Second, since GEMINI is the astrological sign of the Twins, I would guess this camera’s name has something to do with the sensor, which features
