Notes:
- Camera type: full frame with exposure bracketing and an 8mm circular fish eye lens.
- Bracketing: 7 exposures at 2 stops increments.
- Tripod: supporting 120 degrees locked offsets
- Camera angle: should point up 7.5 degrees for better sky or upper dome coverage.
- Camera focus: set and tape locked to manual
- Start shooting looking towards the sun direction with and without the ND3 filter; The other angles will not require the ND3 filter.
- Documenting shooting with a slate (measure distance to slate, day, location, camera info, camera temperature, camera position)
NOTE: The goal is to clean the initial individual brackets before or at merging time as much as possible.
This means:
- keeping original shooting metadata
- de-fringing
- removing aberration (through camera lens data or automatically)
- at 32 bit
- in ACEScg (or ACES) wherever possible
