Features about the Dimming Tool
The lighting adjustment features of the Dimming Tool are similar to those in the design tool. They both support adjustments of Sunlight and Light Source. However, the Dimming Tool includes more than that as it offers the Environment section that allows you to add and edit images of outdoor scenes for your studio.
Sunlight
You can choose to enable or disable sunlight in your studio. If you enable it, you can adjust the temperature, brightness, angle, height, etc.
Light Source
Below are the three types of light source available.
-
Basic Lights
-
Volumetric Lights
-
IES Lights: You can select light sources of this type from the public library. You can also upload your own IES lights.

Environment
In the Environment section, you can select images of outdoor scenes from the public library or simply upload images of your own. After that, you can edit the images as needed.
When you have finished adjusting the lighting, click the Save button at the top-right corner before leaving the page.
When you are back to the interface for studio editing, you can make other adjustments. After that, click the “Album lens settings” on the top bar to go back to the photo shooting page. Then, click Shoot Now, and the photos that you shoot will have all the lighting effects that you’ve adjusted for the studio.
The same goes for video shooting. After you adjust the lighting, the dimming parameters will be synced to the studio that you use for video shooting so that the videos that you shoot will have all the effects configured.
