Taking pictures for photogrammetry

A few tips to keep in mind in order to get the best and fastest results from your RealityCapture software:

Do not limit the number of images, RealityCapture can handle any.
Use the highest resolution possible.
Each point in the scene surface should be clearly visible in at least two high quality images. The more - the better rule applies here.
Always move when taking photos. Standing at one point produces just a panorama and it does not contribute to a 3D model creation. But move around the object in a circular way.
Do not change view point more than 30 degrees.
Start with taking pictures of the whole object, move around it and then focus on details. Beware of jumping too close at once, make it gradual.
Complete loops. For objects like statues, buildings and other you should always move around and end up in the place where you started.
