Datasets
Photo Studio Pro (PS Pro) is a photographic exposure control tool for computer generated images. The tool is made of various mentalray shaders that are combined in a phenomenon. This phenomenon is named Photostudio_V2.mi and runs on Maya, 3dsmax, XSI in both 32bit and 64bit. Since Max2008 there is a graphical user interface (gui) with datamanagement. Since 3dsmax2010 Hardwareshading in the viewport is supported. The interface is designed to manage your exposure output. PSPro has some very special features like: realtime exposure or the simulation of the Av/Tv mode of a SLR camera.
1. Load Dataset
Loading a dataset will automatically set the parameters for viewport, frame and renderer.
2. Create Dataset
Lets you create a Dataset of all the relevant parameters like: exposure, rotoscoping, depth of field, and effects.
3. Delete Dataset
Deleting of a Dataset.
4. Final Render (Mode)
Mode for the beauty rendering.
5. Create Preview (Mode)
In this mode a "raw" preview image named PS.EXR is created and saved in the folder /maps/Photostudio.
6. Use Preview (Mode)
Turing on this mode for realtime exposure of the "raw" preview image.

Render
Start des Rendering bzw. Update des Effekts ja nach Modus (Button: 4,5,6).
Gamma Correction
The system gamma is set here. I use for PC=2.2 / MAC=1.8 / SGI = 1.7
16Bit Frame Buffer
Turn 16Bit Frame Buffer on/off. Have you AA-artifacts in 32Bit Frame Buffer, switch to 16Bit.
Scane line
Turn Scaneline Mode on/off.
Lens Effect
Turn Lens Effect on/off. If Lens Effect off, is Panorama Mode and real 3D Depth of Field disable.
