Thanks for taking the time to submit your idea. Unfortunately, this idea did not get the support of the community over the last 6 months and as such we will not be pursuing it at this time. Please feel free to rework (titles and clear descriptions are really important) and resubmit this one down the road.
Very odd that its not possible to achive photomatch in Revit. It would be so useful. What do people do in order to achive this? 3dmax or sketchup? Mybe I have missed a feature completely?
Definitely disappointing that this appears to not have enough support. Me feeling is that the people to whom this matters are simply not on this forum but that doesn't mean that there are only a few of them. I know that all of my colleagues who are designers would love to have this feature in Revit.
I know I am responding to a very old thread but this is an extremely important feature and I am astounded that it has been decided it is not an important enough feature to add to Revit. I have a commercial Building Design Suite license for my business and have been teaching Revit and a range of other Autodesk software for over 20 years at tertiary level, and I can assure you that camera matching is considered an essential tool in the work that I do (architecture, interior design, visualisation and education). If programs like Revit do not offer this feature, users will increasingly adopt other (cheaper!) software that do, like SketchUp.
I find this incredibly frustrating, as Revit is a great program overall, but the omission or neglect of key features (I could write a book on the poor decisions made with regards to rendering in Revit over the years) makes me question whether we should be teaching Revit at all. I happen to be responsible for decisions about the software taught in possibly the largest training institution in the Southern hemisphere, so perhaps that might motivate somebody at Autodesk to re-investigate this. At the very least, having the option to set a focal length to a camera view would be very helpful
Just adding another comment today on Revit's lack of camera tools.
It is disappointing that Revit has not incorporated a lot of basic functionality that exists in other software packages.
It is too bad these Autodesk wish list items are ranked based on the number of people who happen to "like" each one, rather than our industry's need for each tool.
I find rendering exterior scenes to match an existing photo to be much easier with SketchUp. I was going to try to use Formit (Autodesk's Revit compatible SketchUp-like tool), but haven't had time, and have heard that it's pretty clunky.
Joseph Kim gave a great presentation on Conceptual Rendering in SketchUp at Digital Built Week 2019 in Seattle, where he also talked about linking SketchUp models into Revit- I haven't tried it yet, but have watched a few videos (J. Kim and others) about transferring model info between the two programs via SketchUp Components/ Revit Generic Families.
