I think I need to be in therapy. I've been playing around with the ortholith function built into the Ricoh GX200. Kind of cool, haven't got it totally figured out, yet. As far as I know it is only in the GX200, never heard of it in any other camera.
For those of you suffering without a GX200, here is what it does... All images below are out of camera, no post processing except to resize for posting here.
Yesterday was overcast, no shadows. Here is a JPEG reference of the scene:
There are three possible levels of ortho processing in-camera.
Here is LIGHT:
Here is NORMAL:
Here is DEEP:
With a handful of Scooby snacks I was able to get a model to pose for me so I could try this stuff with flash:
Note to self: black and white dogs are already ortho'd.
Cool detail in things with lines:
If you zoom in real close and look at the pixels in any of those pics you'll see it is not a true ortholith process; black or white without gray. In the images created by the GX200 there are some nifty gray pixels in there too, just not enough to make a difference.
