Hi Eddie, the coupon is named discount.txt and should be visible in your Gumroad Library > Photographer 4 content, next to the zip file. But I've sent you the direct link by mail as well.

Hey Fabien,
I really like all the features you have implemented in your addon, but mostly I am interested in the "base" - setting real camera settings.
So far I have only played around with your free version 2.xxx. I would be interested how your white balance step has been updated since then.
In my tests I have set up a light in a scene with a 6500k blackbody and without any changes a grey object in the scene appears grey. I was assuming that I would be able to change color of the light to 3200k and change the whitebalance within your addon to 3200k and a grey object would appear grey again. Unfortunately I was not able to achieve that with version 2.xxx.

Great question. White Balance math has most likely changed a bit since version 2, but there are still discrepancies between the camera White Balance and the Blackbody node, because I did cut some corners for ease of use (and coding). But your post makes me want to dive back into it and hopefully get it sorted. There are some easy things I know I can do to improve accuracies, and some that I don't fully understand at the moment. I'll let you know.

Great addon and a must have for Blender. There is a small bug... When you have a Clip Start distance and you turn on Depth of Field and then Bokeh Texture, the Clip Distance changes to 0.2

This is not really a bug, but a requirement :) The Bokeh effect is created by placing a textured mesh very close to the focal plane of the camera. In order to render that mesh, the clip distance has to be moved in front of it.

Hello! Amazing addon and been using it since I started blender 2 years ago. I just had an idea to add a function that can place a small area light just next to the camera, like a flash light. I fell the effect makes a more realistic image. Thank you and keep up the great work!
