Found a surprise on my desk this morning. Meindert prepared the new ‘lightweight’ virtual camera rig for testing Lightcraft Previzion in our test studio. See if you can spot the actual (Blackmagic) camera.

So it looks like my hunch was correct. Here you can see the results of our first mocap test with the wide angle lens retrofitted to the 12 OptiTrack cameras. So much better….  Thanks Lukas for the moves!
