I’ve been looking for the section on Lens distortion for sooooo long, thank you !

[@LoganPinney]

THIS series hurt my brain hahaha Joans how you make it seem so simple is far beyond my capacity. People can come back to this time and time again and keep learning from you. Easily 9hrs of info crammed into a little over 3 hours. Cannot thank you enough Maxon training team :)

Such an important tutorial finally mentioning lens distortion needs to be done separately. This should be pinned on the mason motion tracking page. Seriously. All the other tutorials have no idea how to properly set up a camera

Very awesone tutorial, thanks from br!

[@emmettrans2150]

Lots of good info in here! Can you update the links tho for the folks that retain info better by doing it along with the video? Says the files have been deleted.

Hello my friend, I have a problem in this version. 2024.4.1 When I use Motion Track, when I place a video clip to track the movement of the camera, the video does not appear in the display area.

Thank you Maxon and thank you Jonas, it is always very easy to understand when Jonas explain :-)

[@theoneaboveall2640]

I feel you!

this video is a bit confusing. it feels like it jumps around a bit when dealing with taking that camera info from AE and using it within C4D in an actual scene. After the pivot is created and the AE camera is now imported, what is the step after that? I'm sorry but I'm very confsued

I have a short 10 second video of me pointing a camera at a parking lot and barely moving at all (trying to stay still). The motion tracker loses practically every single auto track from start to finish. How come? I tried the full solve as well as creating auto tracks and tracking forward from the start and backward from the end, and even in the middle both ways, and still I have almost no tracks staying the whole video.
I am using an image sequence, and I even try resampling at a higher % and it doesn't seem to help.
