      Gai, the way I read it is that Michal wants to capture views of existing rooms and spaces as setting for his interesting sculptures. I think he would rather not model the room and with teh complexity of his forms he would rather not have the additional weight of the setting. Additionally the photo would provide the scenes lighting.

        Indeed
        @Roger @Gaieus
        Thank you for your concern.

        To model a room. My room for instance.
        I can, but, render times will increase rapidly.
        I'm laaaaaazzzzy.
        The idea behind this is related to a new development of blender sculpting mode.
        It's very important to sculpt having a preview of a place, as a background.
        Sculpting is not just about construction. It's more about shapes that try to capture lighting. I mean, a flow of shapes, connected, coming from the surrounded place into the smaller details of sculpting. It's the final question about Scale. As we can imitate it in the 3d world. As possible it is, after all.
        There isn't anything like an outline around a sculpt. Or around a building if I may say so. An idea, an obsession, when you have it, you can't communicate with your feelings otherwise.
        So, we have blender sculpting now, with the ability to render (cycles) under a physically correct GI fast renderer. A GI renderer tends to "eat" carving, casted shadows, as hell.
        This is so close to what is happening in real sculpting... I'm impressed.

        Sorry for spoiling OLI's thread, but it may demonstrates why it's so important to have such surrounding environments. An easy access on such environments.

        This looks like a 3d render. !!!

          Just you wait michalis I'm gonna build a huge library.

          I have ordered my camera, lens and nodal tripod.

          In the end I actually went for the Nikon D7000. Much superior to the two I was previously considering.

                Just a question oli.
                this lens is a fisheye ~10mm, But on a dx camera this means ~15mm right?
                Welcome to the nikon club.
                My favorite nikon lens is the 50mm f 1.4 , Classic.

                  It can be used for both dx and the full frame cameras.

                  ~15mm?? I honestly don't know! πŸ˜†

                  The fisheye is simply fantastic!! Really impressed with all the kit.

                  I also have the 18-105mm lens and also a Sigma macro lens which is from my old analogue Nikon.
