This is the best add-on I've ever used.
It's so user-friendly and handles everything from HDRI and camera settings to effects.
For a beginner like me, it's perfect.
So many thanks from Japan

Absolutely love this addon - a must have for any workflow!
It makes setting up a scene incredibly quick and easy. I ran into a small issue after upgrading to Blender 4.5, but the developer responded almost instantly with an updated fix. Amazing support and a fantastic tool. Solid 5+++ stars!

Full of potential! This is one of those unassuming tools that packs a ton of time-saving power. The HDRI manipulation features is what really sold me on this addon. I can see this becoming the de facto tool for product designers.
There are some things I would to see implemented in the future to take it to the next level:
*Camera:*
1. Auto-point to selected object: an automatic replacement to manually adding empties then track constraints to the camera, etc.
2. F-Stop adjustment.
3. Detach focal and sensor planes: set-up a camera rig that separates the focal plane and sensor plane, facilitating framing and camera operation in the viewport. YouTuber Robin Squares has video detailing a manual process to create this. It would be fantastic to see an out-of-the-box implementation similar to this.
*Lights:*
1. Light alphas: For light shaping using real-world textures from studio lights (soft boxes, rim lights, etc.), similar to the Light Wangler addon. Even a simple “soft-edged” area light would go a long way for product shots, especially for reflection detail on highly reflective objects.
2. “Precision” mode for manipulating lights: I have noticed that positioning lights in the Reflection Mode can feel jittery at times. Hopefully there could be a shortcut so that the light can be moved in much smaller increments, similar to the effect of pressing the Shift key while transforming objects in Blender.
3. Auto Rim Light: Zac Farmer created an amazing node setup that simulates a rim light using an empty sphere and some node magic. This is huge for portrait and product shots as it give that extra detail without dealing with extra light positioning and/or light linking.
4. Lighting presets: the usual “three point”, Rembrandt, etc., setups, to get a headstart directly from the addon panel.
*Environment:*
1. HDRI rotation on all axes. This is a must!
2. Maybe some crazy options?: YouTuber Derek Elliot has a video detailing and experimental “no-light” lighting setup using the default Sky Texture. It’s pretty cool, and options like these are great to have and experiment right out-of-the-box.
All in all, this is a fantastic, lightweight addition to the Blender arsenal. Keep up the amazing work!

Thanks a lot for your feedback! I really appreciate it and will be taking your suggestions into account for the upcoming update.
This is worth the price for the camera options alone. Excellent and easy to use! I'm not 100% sure how I feel about the light options being so similar to Light Wrangler's though, but hopefully people will be able to support both projects. Thank you for making this simple and afforable!

A great addon. I was considering another addon that did something similar to the lights but this has that function plus so much more. I can see this being a daily use addon. Contacted the creator with a couple of minor suggestions and they will look to implement in the next update. Highly recommended to improve your workflow.

Thank you so much for your helpful feedback — it really helps improve the add-on!
The opacity issue with effects has been fixed and will be included in the upcoming free v1.2 update, along with several new features. The update will be available soon.
Jeez, the amount of addon's I've burnt through trying to find things that work as you want them to do and produce the results you want... well, THIS one absolutely nailed it. Love it. Practical, intuative, brilliantly put together. Highly recommended!

Really glad to hear the add-on hit the mark for you. Your support and feedback mean a lot — more updates are on the way!
nice addons!. Can the rotation along the y-axis and x-axis be added for HDRI?(Why is there a need for rotation along the x and y axes in HDRI? Let me explain that when we perform the "hide background" rendering, we require the illumination effect of specific angles of HDRI (High Dynamic Range Imaging) light. Sometimes, the rotation along the z-axis does not yield the desired result.). Could we add an artificial sun? We can freely control the rotation of the sun along the x, y, and z axes.(If there were a pre-set sun, we could complete the lighting process more quickly.).Because I have used similar asset library tools before, I know how useful these functions are. Therefore,I hope Sir could consider my suggestion. thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll definitely keep your suggestions in mind for the next update.
combines a lot of addons I already use into a nicer ui, having less addons to pin is good.
I haven't tried all the features yet but everything looks good so far.

Thanks! Glad it’s helping simplify your setup.
Let me know if you have any feedback once you try more features.
Amazing, so simple and intuitive. Exploring various HDRI setups all within one panel is a real time saver and the lighting options are easy to manipulate and craft.

Wonderful camera toolkit that extracts known compositing features in blender and streamlines/automates these effects in a fast and effective workflow -- this is a KISS (keep it stupid simple) time-saver addon, no complaints thus far.
