Hey all!

I am LOVING all the beautiful renderings I’m seeing as entries in the contest running right now!  Honestly, I look at some of them and think, “How did they do that??”

The one thing baffling me – and it’s a weird thing – is how folks are getting such great camera placement for some of the terrific images.

I’ve tried getting my camera tight into a render and opening the field of view – and I just get a distorted perspective. I’ve tried pulling away and using the camera clip and object clip… and in my efforts to get a wall out of the way etc I lose a corner of the island… or my object clip nicks the edge of the countertop and I lose the whole thing!

Anyone have tricks to get your camera in a nice place? Where you have that sense of being “in” the room, but you’re not losing the corner of your island?

Baffled and impressed!
