You can find the files by clicking on View Content on the product page https://chafouin.gumroad.com/l/photographer5 If you own the previous version 4, and want to upgrade to Photographer 5, you will find a coupon in your Photographer 4 files to only pay $9.

No need to apologize! Are you logged in Gumroad with the account that bought the add-on? Please reach out to me by replying to the email you received from me, I will need your email address to find your invoice.

Hi, I have 4 and have the code to use for 5 but where do I apply the code? It just says the full price at the 'pay' stage

The coupon that you can find in your Photographer 4 files (photographer5_upgrade_coupon.txt) has link that will direct you directly to the Product page with the discount applied. You should not have to apply any code manually.

Great, done................ I just copied the coupon looking for somewhere to paste it rather than just going to the link :)

Hello and thank you for your great work, I use your addon on a daily basis. It is usefull, well done and eficient. I wonder if in the render queue it would be possible to have a sample overide per view; Sometimes I have both exterior and interior views in the queue to render but they don't need the same amount of sampling (+/- 128sp for exterior and +/-512 for interior).

Yes it will be added soon.

Version 5.3.0 will be released today with Samples override per camera. Note that I would recommend leaving Samples at high value, and letting Noise Threshold define the most optimized adaptive sampling. That being said, the Noise level is calculated from the scene-referred linear, which means that cameras with different exposures will require different Noise Threshold values in order to provide the same amount of acceptable noise.

I've read up on install issues, but haven't been able to install 5.2.3 down to 4.8.7 as suggested. I took screenshots of the errors when I try to activate it in preferences. Is it possible toget them to you for troubleshooting? Otherwise, can't wait to use it! :)

We found the culprit offline, the issue was a conflict with another add-on that has many overlapping features and functions with Photographer.

Hi, can you fix the plugin regarding camera rigs? It messes up the rigs making them unusable. It looks like it overwrites default camera rig plugin. Blender 4.0.2

Hi! The addon should not overwrite anything related to vanilla Blender rigs, could you please share more information about the issue you are seeing by mail? Photographer Camera rigs got broken in Blender 4.0 indeed, but I have a fix that I can send you if you are willing to try the beta of the next version. Please reach out by mail!

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!
