| I updated our Matterport Essential Shopping List: 17-Items to include the new iPad Pro with Apple Pencil for iPad Pro There are three reasons why I include the iPad Pro 9.7 256 GB rather than the $128 GB version or an iPad Air 2. For these three reasons, please see my MUG Forum post ... Tip: Just Starting out? Get the iPad Pro 9.7 Here's my short list for getting started. Budget: $10,000 [Note: Why I recommend a different tripod -- and tripod head -- than Matterport.] 1. $4,500 | Matterport Pro 3D Camera 2. $ 499 | Matterport Basic Cloud Service Plan/$49 monthly 3. $ 240 | Manfrotto MT190XPRO4 4 Section Tripod 4. $ 60 | Desmond DLEV-1 Leveler Level Plus Discal Clamp for Tripod 3/8 Precision Leveling Base 5. $ 1,599 | Apple iPad Air 256 GB (Wi-Fi + Cellular 4G LTE 6. $ 118 Apple Pencil for iPad Pro 7. $ 79 | AppleCare Protection Plan for iPad 8. $ 60 | Native Union Gripster Wrap for iPad Air 2 [iPad Pro 9.7 not available as of 3 April 2016] 9. $ 145 | Think Tank CityWalker 20 Messenger Bag, Black 10. $ 60 | UNU Ultrapak Tour 10000mAH Portable Charger 11. $ 27 | BESTEK 300W Power Car Inverter 12V DC->110V AC 12. $ 7 | Stanley 43-511 Torpedo Level 13. $ 10 | Altura Photo Professional Cleaning Kit 14. $ 40 | 4 Wedge-It - The Ultimate Door Stop (Black) 15. $ 22 | 4 Magic Sliders 80378 Rubber Door Stop (Clear) 16. $ 11 | Disposable Shoe Covers - 100-pack 17. $ 21 | Business and Legal Forms for Photographers 18. $ 11 | 3M Duct Tape 2929 Silver 19. $ 588 | We Get Around Essential Launch Marketing Tool Kit for Matterport Service Providers (Summary of Benefits | Compare Plans | Marketing Videos) ============ $8,097 $ 500 Estimated tax and shipping ============ $8,597 Budget: $9,000 plus a $350 Ricoh Theta S 360º spherical photo/video/VR camera [Here's why) Notes: 1. If you buy the Desmond DLEV-1 Leveler Level, you do not need the clamp that Matterport recommends 2. All the above are on my Matterport Gear and Accessories Shopping List. 3. The external battery is to charge your iPad as you capture spaces. 4. Engage a Pro for Quick Start (and shadow, including post production) What else? What else is essential for getting started?

| Thanks for posting. There are a few things I might consider. A suggestion I might add are mirror props. A tasteful plant that you can set on the count in front of a mirror, for example. I have several depending on whether I need height or width (I'll admit, they are from Walmart and suck but it's better than seeing the camera). |

| Hi everyone! I´m planning on buying a case that fits both the MP camera and the Manfrotto, MT190X3 190 Aluminum, 23.23in tripod. I was thinking of buying the Pelican 1510-000-110 Carry On Case with Pick 'N' Pluck Foam (Black). The price tag and carry on comfort is important, does anyone have recommendations. Thanks in advanced for your comments. All best, Fernando |

| The Desmond leveler seems to be hard to source these days, certainly here in Europe... i also notice they did release one with a bubble.. the DLEVX-68... but that also seems scarce. Any other suggestions ? Thx ! |

| @Fernando If you want to be able to put the tripod in luggage, I encourage you to buy a tripod that collapses to a shorter distance. For example, the Manfrotto MT190XPRO4 4 Section Aluminum Tripod Legs with Q90 Column (Black) closes to 19.2 inches instead of 23.23 inches. While I bought a Pelican case - in addition to the ThinkTank SubUrban Disguise 30 Shoulder Bag, I just place the ThinkTank in my carry-on luggage. This is a personal preference. Dan |

| @kevshed About the Desmond DLEVX-68 Leveler w Bubble Level for Tripod 3/8 Precision Tri-Wheel Leveling Base, that is missing the quick-release clamp on top. I recall that we have a Forum Member that likes this because of the built-in bubbles. Dan |
