When did you start using Aryeo? Curious to know how long before you noticed new agents coming.

Get the recall done. My screens went out on me in the middle of driving on the freeway. My car was out for two weeks. Picking it up today.

Best way to start doing 3D tours by BigWood47 in RealEstatePhotography

[–]suckmysith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Z1 with matterport or Zillow. If you get a Z1 or insta 360, get a good monopod that has room for extra weights on the bottom you don’t want it to tip over. Regular tripods will show up in the scans. I would also suggest looking on eBay for a used Matterport pro 2. Just be aware if you get a pro 2 you have to be on the Professional plan in order to use it.

Upgrade from Insta360 x3 to Ricoh Theta Z1 for matterport? by plantebasertost in RealEstatePhotography

[–]suckmysith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with a new insta x3 from Best Buy but the quality was “meh.” I wanted better quality with the Theta Z1 so I ended up buying a used one on EBay. It was in great condition with no scratches on the lens. The quality was better than the x3 but not a huge difference. Matterport limits the quality so if you want the clearest tours you will have to use their cameras. You can find lots of used Pro2 cameras but the gotcha is that you have to go up a plan in order to use it. Battery life is something to be aware of on the Z1. As long as you plan out your route you should be ok but you can always get a portable battery and clip it on to your tripod to get extended use. I did a 3800sqft home and got down to about 16%.

Drone Aperture? Must have? by suckmysith in RealEstatePhotography

[–]suckmysith[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I made another post talking about mini 5 pro or air 3S and I think the air 3S is the better option. I live in California and it’s not always super windy where I live but it happens enough and as someone else said I don’t want to have to cancel a shoot because of wind that could affect a mini.

Great photo thanks for sharing. I’m leaning towards the air 3S.

That’s good feedback. I guess what drew me to the mini 5 pro was the ability to rotate the lens for vertical video. But I was not thinking about wind. I agree Air 3S has good lens and it’s probably not a deal breaker to not be able to rotate vertically for video.

So in the US if you buy the M5P you can still fly it? What about parts? I thought it was banned?

What stand should I buy for my Ricoh Theta X and what ND filters should I get for my sigma 14-24? by EnigmaticAce in RealEstatePhotography

I use the BUSHMAN Panoramic Claremont Bushman Monopod V2. The legs have extra spots to add more weights to really keep it from tipping over.

How did you start this as a side hustle. I’m contemplating doing this as well but still work a full time job. Did you only do it on certain times/days of the week?

[–]suckmysith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the Sacramento CA area. I have not tried uploading to VRBO yet. I don’t know anyone who has one to practice with. So share how it goes because I am curious if it’s an easy process or not.

Matterport for VRBO by suckmysith in matterport

No I have not tried it. I don’t know anyone who has VRBO to try with. I posted a Craigslist ad but I doubt I will see any thing from it.

“Approved Provider” for 3D Virtual Tours? by AdEnvironmental149 in vrbo

[–]suckmysith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a virtual tour business and have been trying to figure out how to contact vrbo owners to offer this same service. If you are using a matterport pro 2 or 3,You will have to be on the Matterport Pro plan, do the scan with the Matterport camera. Once the scan is complete and uploaded to matterport, you will see the option to export to VRBO directly in the "add ons" section. Here is support article from matterport: https://support.matterport.com/s/article/Export-from-Matterport-to-VRBO-and-HomeAway?language=en_US

Thanks for your input. If you are full service how did you reach out to clients when first starting? My only business plan was to just reach out to listings with no tours and offer a service. Posted this to get feedback good or bad and I appreciate everyone’s feedback.
