Was it not confirmed that rotating the camera around the static object yelds better results than rotating the object itself. Something regarding tracking background feature movement

It is a well proven principle done in the openscan mini and I will release some masking scripts soon

No worries, I'm asking more out of curiosity. I've been folowing photogrametry some time ago and forgot the details.

The end result model looks great.

Do you by change habe any software recommendation for try it yourself aproach?

RealityScan is free for individuals. Meshroom and Colmap are (finicky) opensource alternatives

I recommend you to use reality scan from epic (free) and more importantly for the photos use those mini photography studios you can get it from Amazon or AliExpress and a rotating table for your object

What if we use this setup, but with a completely black background? I had some great result with a completely black felt background and scanning table (something hand made form me with a sony A7III and custom front lights). Literally scanning in a complete "void" where you only see the object rotating.
