We have a series planned for different hosts including Blender. In the meantime, Elizabeth uses Blender and Mocha Pro in this section of the recent livestream : kzread.info4z9TYNIAWmM?si=Eu0jObL08A2DKsjJ&t=2898

You're welcome.
What a time-saving solution ! BTW if that shot has lens distortion ,Should it need to do distortion correct in Syntheye or later ? ( Import tracking data to C4D for 3D match moving )

If you have SynthEyes then you can do it that way. Or you can use the Lens module in Mocha Pro to do you undistort/redistort. I would recommend rendering out an undistorted plate to bring back into Mocha Pro for 3D tracking. Then you can just use the exported lens data or Mocha Pro plugin to redistort when comping back over the original plate.

Hi, theres no export option for flame like in syntheyes other than using the fbx format and I cant seem to find my points.

When exporting FBX you have the choice of exporting points as Single Mesh or Nulls. Does changing this to Nulls let you find your points? Also, what would be your preferred format for Flame other than an Action export? If you are still having problems, it will be easier to help you through Support : support.borisfx.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
How can the 3D data be brought into Blackmagic Fusion?

We are currently working with the BMD team to fix a bug that effects importing FBX files as an FBX scene into Fusion. Make sure to subscribe to our channel and we will make a workflow video when it gets fixed.
where can I download this footage ?
i would like to see a tutorial that shows how i can work with the 3d camera solve in mocha with green screen footage. i shot some one on a green screen with a gimble not on a tripod and i would like to know how can i use the 3d camera solve in after effects so i can replace the background with the right movement. thank you.

Check out Elizabeth's shot in the recent Boris FX Live video : kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zq5ttruHeaS9nbA.html It's almost exactly what you're describing.
With the standalone version we can't import USDz.... And no possibility to put 3D objet with the 3D panel too... I can only do the solver for ... nothing

Importing 3D objects is for checking the quality and alignment of the solve. Only .usd, .usda, and .usdc formats are supported, if you have .usdz files you will have to convert them. Mocha Pro's 3D Camera Solve is a fast way to generate camera and scene data for use in other packages. What would you like to be able to do inside of Mocha Pro in the future?

Ah thanks for your precious response ! With Apple We know only usdz indeed ;-)) I would like to use mocha with DaVinci in fusion and with Blender so I try to understand how to do ;-))
