If you want to start making professional smartphone recordings with the Smart Dome right away, the Smartphone Mount Kit is the ideal tool. Thanks to the universal operation, you can make the most beautiful photos and videos with almost any smartphone, from exactly the right angle.
1. Take pictures with your DSLR camera, smartphone or PC.
2. Edit photos with the Foldio360 app or PC360 software.
3. Export as JPG, PNG, HTML or MP4 files.
On both the front and top of the Smart Dome you will find an opening. This makes it possible to record both products that are placed flat on the turntable, through the top, and products that are standing upright, through the front. There is a separate smartphone holder available (see optional accessories) which allows you to easily take pictures from the right angle. On the top you will find two flexible clips to attach (for example) a chain.
In the Smart Dome there is a turntable of Ø 22 cm. You can place products up to 2.8 kg on it. Depending on the mode - chosen in the app - the turntable stops for a moment when the picture is taken or keeps on turning in the video mode.
Hidden behind the walls of the Smart Dome are no fewer than 258 LED lights, which provide a diffuse-lit environment. This ensures that you capture products with as little shadow as possible and they look natural. There are 129 warm LEDs (2300K) and 129 cold LEDs (5600K) present. This allows you to easily adjust the color temperature based on any ambient light. The CRI value is 95+, which ensures a natural reproduction of the product's colors. The turntable and lighting are powered by the included adapter (12v 4A).
On the back of the Smart Dome there are three connectors:
- 2.5 mm port, for connection to a camera
- Power port, for the supplied adapter
- Micro USB, for internal purposes (not in use)
This is how you connect the devices:
The Smart Dome is connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth. If instead of the smartphone camera, you want to use your DSLR camera to take pictures, you can connect it to the Smart Dome in two ways. The Smart Dome has a built-in infrared transmitter that can trigger a camera with a built-in infrared receiver (Canon, Nikon, Pentax and Sony). If your camera does not have an infrared receiver, you can also connect the Smart Dome to your camera with a suitable 2.5mm cable (available elsewhere).
When using the Smart Dome with the software for macOS, the Smart Dome connects to your computer via Bluetooth. You connect your camera to your computer with a USB cable. In this way your computer can control the lighting and the turntable and trigger your camera at the right moment.
If you want to start making packshots, videos and 360-spins of products up to 15x15x15 cm in a professional way, the Smart Dome is the ideal solution. A perfect tool for web store owners or other activities where you want to photograph objects with good lighting conditions every time.
