Maybe a strange way of using Carrara. A client discovered that two foto's of dishwashing machines had their perspective off, he wanted them the same (the perspective was changed because of a dent in the machine that would be too noticable).

I used Vanishing Point in Photoshop CS3 Extended to put a simple box in the right perspective around the machine. Export as 3ds file, import in Carrara, slightly change the perspective to match the reference photo and, voila!

For background material like buildings etc. the new Vanishing Point can be a quick way to extract material from photos that can appear in 3D, with some limitations of course.

 There are some great ways to use Photoshop with 3D content now. Thanks for sharing. By the way, the 3D engine in Photoshop is based on some code licensed from Carrara's former parent corporation, Eovia.

Thanks for sharing that, Hoofd....  I have only cracked CS3Extended a bit and saw that you can export 3D content and thought, hey, that might work for photogrammetry.  You've indicated that it clearly can.

Now, I just need to knuckle down and actually figure out how to do it!

And Mark, was it the Canoma tech that is in CS3?  I remember that Adobe bought that from MetaCreations and Canoma vanished immediately thereafter....
