Welcome!
Hey!
I'm starting to create my own lenses with the plugin, and I discovered the calibrated Lens file option.
I haven't found any resources on this. How does it work?
I suppose it requires video footage from the lens itself, and that's it?
What settings does it calibrate?
Best,
BLG
Hey and welcome aboard!
The calibrated lens file is a unreal proprietary file format. It measures the distortion of your real world lens and creates parameters for a post process effect that simulates that distortion in Unreal. Here is the quick start guide from Epic on how to create your own:
After the calibration you can use that file with Cinematographer by using it in the slot on your screenshot. Cinematographer then uses Unreal's own lens distortion effect instead of Cinematographers.
I hope this information helps!
