40 minutes total time - i think I would do less scans next time and stay a little further from the walls. Maybe shorten the tripod and scan from the kitchen island?

6 PM sky was overcast. I think part of the success was due to the surrounding buildings fence and other good data points

Typically if you cant see the sun then your ok to shoot outside and the camera works great. You just have to look out for the suns reflection of shiney objects as that can screw up you scan. On inportant note and it's been said many time is don't be confused by a cloudy day, if the sun is up there in the clouds the IR will still screw up your shot.

@marswalker At any point when you were scanning outside did you see the ground/deck or was it black and showed up after processing?

Watch the sliding door - marked as a mirror and then went outside. Deleted the mirror after 1 outdoor scan

That's interesting. I just posted about a scan that was giving me trouble outside. The deck was totally black. It was an overcast day, north facing so typically it would be in shadow (I think). In any case I didn't want to chance something not looking right after processing so I closed the door, deleted scans, and rescanned that part of the house.

Steven -
I guess I had the right attitude- If I don't know something doesn't work it just may work - instead of implying I was not lucky and had help why don't you try some out of the box thinking with the system - and then share so others can help find solutions to basic limitations.

I am working on a before and after renovation model now. My thinking is if the structure points stay similar I should be able to create a new model and add scans after the renovation. For structure points that change I will try blocking with a mirror for the scan. Goal being to walk from a room needing renovation into a renovated room.
