  • Thanks for the detailed answer. As a person with vision, i’m familiar with this already but i didn’t know any of the math or science behind it.

    I mostly was curious to know if an addon existed to adjust an object’s scale as you adjust its distance along an axis perpendicular to the camera (your view, not the camera object) to keep its visual angle the same. I don’t have any need for a tool like this so i probably won’t try to make said addon, but it’s nice to know that the formulas for this already exist.

    I think photos of people posing around monuments are good examples of this. You already mentioned the Eiffel Tower appearing to be as tall as a person from the right angle.

    The Leaning Tower of Pisa is obviously much bigger than this bag, but the bag is positioned at an angle to make the tower look small enough to fit inside.
