This past August I attended the Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination Exhibit in Indianapolis. The staff was very strict about using any kind of illumination on the models. Fortunately the museum’s overhead lights illuminated the top surfaces of the models and produced excellent results. The underside of the models were poorly light, but my camera worked well in these situations. As in Ottawa, I used a Nikon D7100 camera with a Nikon 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX Nikkor lens. The camera automatically adjusted for lens distortion. I used RAW mode which gave an image that is 6000x4000 pixels and is approximately 28 Mb. I used Nikon’s Capture NX 2 to do a basic conversion of the RAW file to a JPEG and applied the Auto level setting to each file, which produced a manageable file size under 4 Mb.
