Just wanted to say, I'm so glad that I found this channel 😂

Camera are now importable with Zbrush, I just tried with Mata 2018 & Zbrush 2020, great stuff

[@joeincident2043]

If you click S to bring up the brush size and then Alt-click on the brush size marking menu, it will dock the camera setting for you.

Thank you for making this video. Actually the zooming in on the model in Zbrush doesn't maintain the selected focal length, you can notice that when the "AC" starts to light up at the top of the screen next to quick save button. That means that zbrush is automatically cropping, so I don't think that let's say a closeup of a character's face in zbrush would really have the same focal length as in other software, even if the focal lengths of cameras are the same. Also the perspective in zbrush doesn't seem to be object related but scene related regardless of zooming in or framing a specific object. If someone knows if that's at all doable in Z - to have a true focal length maintained without auto cropping occuring please share!

Kaoru Sakaki sculpts in ortho. He does anime figurines for 3d printing.I just realised that I've been sculpting in ortho for an entire year. Thanks guys.

I'm now convinced that the main goal of the ZBrush devs is to take basic features that have existed in 3D software for decades and see how awkward and unintuitive they can make them. "I know! Let's put the camera under the Draw menu, set the focal length range from 0.15708 to 2062.5957, and stick a giant undo and redo button on there. Perfect, ship it!"

[@eternalsnows6071]

@Zinogg I think you're right. I hold out hope they'll do a major rewrite at some point. Not likely, but you never know!

[@johny1648]

zbrush is not for weak

[@JCGCompositions]

This is really helpful to a hobbyist like me who actually uses ZBrush for their renders. If I want another pass at my subject with a different light (for compositing in 2D software) I can recall the camera to get an exact match. Whereas before, I would need to redo all the renders (without ever moving the view!)

[@tiantiangamingtv718]

store camera didnt support ortho view thats why I still use timeline.

[@callibor3119]

Blender 2.82 just came out yesterday. Can't wait for your thoughts on the new software update. :)

[@MANIAKRA]

Exporting cameras only in FBX (to maya) works now in 2022 :)

[@tastycorner4659]

Would you plz tell me how to export it as every time I try to export it gives me blank fpx file and no thing showing in maya

[@karen.johana]

You guys should do more hard surface tutorials :(

[@FlippedNormals]

We have something you might find interesting coming up soon 🤭

[@CP-ih6zq]

Can you save these camera stores with the file? is it only with a full save vs a tool save?

[@SomeAB]

I just tested exporting the camera from Blender to Zbrush, but it doesn't work still. Tried various things with FBX format. Even imported it using USD format, but USD import in Zbrush doesn't allow a camera yet. Maybe in future.

[@TechieChuks]

Pls how do I get the front,back and sides reference view of the alien used in this video. I want to try out sculpting something like that...am new though

[@adamodimattia]

Is it possible to rotate camera around the sub tool local center and not around scene center?

[@arcuscerebellumus8797]

As always in zbrush. You are working with a list, but you can't see the damn list, you just have to remember that it's there.

[@7_of_1]

In your realistic male and female head sculpt which I purchased what focal length are you using, what would you recommend as a camera for this sort of work?

[@sturm3d]

is it possible to import animated cameras by any chance?

[@MDksa123]

guys im completly noob to zbrush and i dont understand perspectives, when do i use it or why should i use it?

[@sunilghorpade336]

Hi, how can i move camera in z brush when its locked?

[@billyblanks7302]

How can you keep/save the camera position when you scale the document?

[@maksimbolotov5783]

Is there a way to export camera from zbrush to maya?

[@reginaldarmah2381]

Quick question: Should I sculpt in perspective or orthographic?

[@dant4774]

ortho always

[@MR3DDev]

Sorry for the off topic guys but I am looking for an animation course in Maya. Is there anything on the FlippedNormal website that you could recommend? I am looking for a more intermediate to advance

[@lalalila5089]

Can u show us how to enable the aov setting there ;-;?

[@vozesnaminhacabeca810]

Why this doesn't work with Blender?²!

[@prasadparker6303]

Why do we need to again RETOPO if we have zRemesh in Zbrush.... can't we use that for animation, rigging, or in game engine...???????

[@daniboiyy]

yea, but its not always gonna come out 100% perfect all the time, you might have to go in and tweak some areas depending on your needs

[@dispersiasvata]

3:00 Store Cam

[@nxtlvl2116]

[@daniboiyy]
