    Craig,

    I'd be really interested in seeing more of your setup, I have the same system and actually the same amount of cameras. I own expression as well but am not having as much luck as you have in setting it up, any pointers?

    The biggest refinement is camera focus.... get the basic set up right, then really tweak the actual lens focus to the best you can. This is crucial. Then, remove the larger marker from the wand and instead use a small 3mm or 5mm face marker on the tip.... and wand the volume that way.

    That should get you in the right ball park fro some super tight facecap.

    You know its wild, Natural Point is helping me with jumping points that I'm having, did you ever have that problem? They even told me that 12 cameras was overkill for face capture. Did you ever try 6 using just 6? Does 12 improve your results?

    sorry dude, I must have missed your last comment...
    My system is very stable indeed, using 12 camera's.

    What size markers are you using? Have you focus the lens ring? I know its an easy oversight.... trust me. Took me two days of setting up to realise that the markers were bad due to the wrong focus on the cameras (I used it for a big body volume the week before..)

    Seeing as your last post is 2 months old, im hoping you got to the bottom of this...

    But drop me a line at
