**The Unboxing**

Small box that holds greatness.

Upon opening there is the standard set of goodies

Scanner, Cables, Turntable, tripod markers etc…  
BUT WAIT!!! There is more.

This **Magic Mat**

 ![20230728_122814](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/revopoint3d/original/2X/b/b501ea0301c0d7e888473af43237677cca67a5c7.jpeg)  
It is a decent size and a real game changer for marker mode, very portable also.

On to the scanner. It is small light weight and very easy to transport.

Its usb type c. So one cable to rule them all.

So I got **inspired** (pun intended)

Scanned a birthday cupcake

Lovely scan, it came out great.

But my inspiration did not stop there.  
Loaded it into my 3d slicer for 3d printing.

 ![Slicer](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/revopoint3d/original/2X/8/8ebe81e60bfa3648bf552018a3730cd20bbdff28.jpeg)

3d painted it for a colored paint and scaled it down.

The prints came out great look at that frost… i mean pla filament lol.

So what do you do with tiny little cupcakes??? 🤔

You know what I found yesterday Jermaul? If you add additional LED light on the left side of the RGB camera, the colors will pop up as the original , use together with the INSPIRE LED and set the RGB Exposure to manual to around 10 …

The color rendition will be as original …  
Just a tip … to try out

I believe the single LED is only good for close up small scans … it needs extra light support .

I think the single LED don’t makes the colors brilliant , I used the Revopoint LED …it changed the game so this means the RGB camera is actually great !

Makes sense, if the camera does have enough light it will struggle to produce good images and will get noisy

As always You can inspect the images with the Flayer. 😉

Hi Frederic , just the same you can find in Revopoint Online Store , or Amazon , rechargeable LED  
INSPIRE needs a slightly extra light for scanning better color , just put the light behind your scanner, on the left side of the RGB camera , one up and one below … nothing more nothing else , adjust your RGB exposure to proper level manually and ready to go .

Hi Catharina, is this advice also valid for pop 2 for scanning better color ?  
I use fixed lighting when I use the turntable, but it is not always suitable when I have to move around an art object or a person to be scanned.

If you attach the light on top and below RGB camera you going to have perfect results as with Inspire and POP3 , once the white balance is fixed to manual you should have no issues .  
I was talking about in my Mini and PoP2 thread .  
I got very good results using this setup with POP2 … will show you tomorrow the full setup .
