Often, a product is too difficult or large to shoot only with a camera and a turntable. Imagine doing 360 product photography for a wardrobe or a giant table… Can you make it work with a turntable? You need to hoist the camera at a certain angle to capture the entire piece, so large furniture is complex to shoot.
A 360 shot usually requires a minimum of 36 shots using a camera to create a spin product for just one horizontal or vertical axis. It’s almost impossible to create perfect 360 product spins for large hard-to-position furniture pieces.
3D rendered product spins are pretty much the most feasible option for such furniture. Using online tools such as Expivi and Sketchfab help create an online 360 degrees spin for such products. This is exponentially easier than using a turntable and camera to create a 360-degree spin for such kinds of large furniture.
The main point of using 3D renders for 360 product spins is that it skips the complex photography process. There’s no need to send an inventory for the photoshoot, so you can avoid the unnecessary expenses of shipping it to a professional studio. There will be no more risks of damaging your sample products during the shoot, either.
3D Rendering also offers perfectly replicated models of your furniture, minus the natural imperfections during production or transport. As mentioned, to create high-definition close-up of 360 photography, you need to use another zoom technology for it. For 3D renders, the editors can already create that feature for you, down to the last, tiniest detail.
While you can take many photographs from different angles, you cannot rotate them. 3D rendering engages the customer by making the product interactive. These users can rotate the object’s picture in a 360-degree spin and zoom in/out.
