DxO do a fantastic job but of course they deal with highly modern lenses and 
cameras so chances are these are more relevant plus its function is more 
aesthetic than technical so I would suggest to be inspired by their work but 
treat each lens/body as a different lens altogether, they really are.

Hi Jordi,

Thanks for the in-depth reasoning.

I'm impressed enough with the companies like DxO manage to provide the
combinations they do for DLSR.
Thought it a bit unlikely for film work but worth asking.

Might have to have another look at 3DE then.. I keep heading back to
PFTrack at the moment.

Cheers,

Adam.

 Does any of the software out there allow you to undistort plates using
 ready made profiles based on camera/lens combinations?

 Have the problem of there not being enough time to shoot grids due to
 the camera being fitted to a helicopter for evening shots.

 I know there's various software for DLSR/lens combinations like DxO and
 even Photoshop ,that will read EXIF or manually input information that will
 do the job.

 Thanks,

Re: OT: Camera lens distortion

2016-08-04 Thread Jordi Bares
The big issue with lens databases is that they need to be very well crafted or 
you will end up trusting something that is not right although surely better 
than nothing… I guess.

To do it well we should be registering the grids with variations of focal 
lengths (zoom lenses of course) and for each of those a series of focal 
distances and this is VERY time consuming to do well. Assume a full day for a 
normal set of lenses and you will need a massive (truly massive) grid on a wall 
so there are some logistics involved too.

Furthermore, when you face old anamorphic lenses then all bets are off and you 
have to scale up the operation in a big way to do some decent tracking, only 
3DE can model degree 6 anamorphic distortions with lens breathing and the lot, 
therefore my tool of choice is 3DE, the rest feel like toys, very capable tools 
for 90% of the cases though but when things turn ugly… in my experience only 
3DE can crack these.

But it is obvious that with today’s constraints (time and money) it may be 
unrealistic to do the full thing so my suggestion is to operate with the new 
generation of Cooke or Arri lenses (Ultra Primes) and simplify the distortion 
grids to focal length and only on those shots that you envision problems to do 
the full set of Focal Length and Focal Distance.

A question I have… How much would you be happy to pay a month to have access to 
a properly constructed lens database (ready to go with any software)? consider 
this, if the lens is not already in the database you get the distortion done 
(provided you send the grids properly done) within hours for free and from then 
on is available to everyone. Would that be something the majority of people 
would be happy to pay for? I know I would but I am interested.

hope it helps

Haven't used it in a while, but SynthEyes can do some undistorting as 
well, when you have no grid while shooting.

Hi folks,

Wondered if I could tap into some accumulated knowledge on the list.

Does any of the software out there allow you to undistort plates
using ready made profiles based on camera/lens combinations?

Have the problem of there not being enough time to shoot grids due
to the camera being fitted to a helicopter for evening shots.

I know there's various software for DLSR/lens combinations like
DxO and even Photoshop ,that will read EXIF or manually input
information that will do the job.

Thanks,

Adam
