Theta S ND filter

thingiverse

This is a new version of Lenscap for Ricoh Theta S panoramic camera. I've built upon my previous design, making some necessary adjustments to accommodate this variation. You can view the original here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1103629. While using this ND filter limits half the area of the picture, the images are still perfectly capable of being composed into a HDR image, as demonstrated here: http://www.11moon.com/Theta/20151226/sky.hdr (41 MB). Thanks to its 32-bit true HDR capabilities, you can create amazing 3D movies in software like CINEMA 4D - just check out this incredible example: https://youtu.be/yI7IOu9PkUg. The case was designed with extra storage for the filter (December 28, 2015). For a custom version of this ND filter case, visit my shop here: https://minne.com/items/3136860. I've also listed two other relevant items: https://minne.com/items/2934362 and https://minne.com/items/2591450. **Print Settings** I printed this design on my XYZ DaVinci 1.0 printer using the following settings: * No rafts * No supports * Resolution: 0.2mm * 0.5mm * Infill: 30%, with 25% overlap and a width of 120% * Temperature: 220°C head, 65°C table (Titanium table) * Speed: 1200 mm/min, 40% for the outline and 60% for infill * Skirt was used * Support is handmade and included in the STL file * Stick paste was used (Tombow Shiwa-nashi PIT) **Printing Details** The print time was around 80 minutes, followed by an additional 20 minutes spent sanding and assembling. Based on current market prices, the cost of this project came out to approximately $0.55 for ABS. **Post-Printing Instructions** After completing the print, set up the film type ND filter according to these instructions: http://fujifilm.jp/personal/filmandcamera/sheetfilter/nd.html. I used an ND16 (-4EV or ND-1.2) as it allowed me to capture the sun shape accurately and made it easier to calculate the exposure value. To assemble, cut two circles of 25 mm diameter (ø25 mm), followed by cutting two rings of 26 - 23 mm (ø26 - ø23 mm). Next, set the ND filters in place using a double-sided tape ring. Afterward, cover the edge with black tape to conceal it.
