      Hi There,

      What type of exposure settings are used on 360 panoramas? I have noticed if you have certain ceiling lights/etc. that wash out the design in 360 panoramas or high res perspectives. I wondered if I knew the exposure if I could play with the exposure setting on my perspective prior to running the 360 so that I can make sure my lighting will render nicely. Thanks!

      Hi Cassondra,

      I’m pretty sure the 360 ignores the exposure settings from the rendering.  I have found that if I want see what the 360 looks like without generating the whole thing hitting the High Quality rendering button gives me a pretty good idea without having to go through all the rendering done by the 360 pano.

      I’m also having a problem with “blown out” 360 renders.  In High Quality, it looks terrific – pleasantly lit but still cozy.  In the Panorama, the image is CRAZY blown out…like I cranked the brightness to 11!  All except the little wedge of the room that was directly behind the camera.  That looks fine.  This is really frustrating!  It’s so bright white I can hardly see anything!

      Any info would be great – we are still practicing with v11 and want to get ourselves sorted out with it before we start to create actual kitchen!

      Many thanks!

      If anyone ever visits this thread because they are having the “overexposure problem”, I figured it out!

      Turn off the SUN.

      Even with just one small window, if I had the Sun turned on, shining through the slats of the blinds – even just a little bit – TOTALLY white/yellow blowout!

      As soon as I turned the Sun off – no more issue.
