Hi,
I've been trying to create models of some bones that are difficult to model in PhotoScan, because the surfaces are so smooth and reflective. I've finally managed to set up a lighting and image capture procedure where I can get photographs to align: rotate the object on a turntable, 6-8 different chunks/rotations, take a relatively high number of photographs (e.g., 30) per rotation, align chunks separately, then merge chunks sequentially.
However, as you can see from this screenshot, I get a large number of photographs that overlap one another at the two ends of the rotation. I was once told overlapping photographs were a bad thing in PS. But it doesn't seem to be causing me a problem with alignment (whether the shape is accurate remains to be seen).
So my question is: are overlapping photos a matter of concern or not?
Thanks.
