If an Australian distributor is really happy to rent it for $253/month($230+10% sales tax) I will rent it first to see what I am getting compared to using a BLk360 instead. If it is similar but much faster I will be looking to swap. I hope by that time Materport may decide changing their decision and lets at least transferring it to classic. If not I am not sure I will swap at all. Most of the time I use my BLK360 where a lot of outdoor scanning involved. It can be my own clients from business/realestate or from a couple of contracts I have for venue places.

I use both a Pro 2 and BLK360 and these models can be hosted on either new or legacy accounts, as I have both.

So my question from the beginning has also been - Is just the processing of Pro 3 models restricted to newer accounts (makes sense, no problem) or has MP decided to prohibit the transfer of models including Pro 3 scans to legacy accounts? (no reason, because you can do this with models that include BLK360 lidar scans).

If anyone has a Pro 3 camera, and also has both legacy and newer accounts, do a quick test scan, process it on your newer account and when the model is ready, try to transfer it to your legacy acct.

Technically, it's lidar scans just like the BLK360. So if Pro 3 models can't be moved to legacy accounts, Matterport has simply made the choice to not let us do so. Certainly they should be able to as it's same kind of data as from BLK360.

Someone try it and let us know what you learn.

	I get that the Pro3 scans are not compatible with classic plans... but what about transferring the scans to other MSPs? I have had opportunity to sub-contract dozens of scans to other MSPs over the past few years and I worry about whether or not I'll have to refuse camera operators with Pro3 scans if they won't be able to transfer a Pro3 scan to my Classic hosting account.

	Right now "to be determined" I also have a message in to see if the new camera might be able to be used with the classic accounts even if at a higher per model price similar to the BLK360

	I was in a chat with a Matterport rep about if it would bill as it did with the Leica and they said I'd have to upgrade from the classic plan and he offered to do so. I refused because I know it can't be reinstated. I'll wait and see.

	@DanSmigrod That is going to be a logistical nightmare. It'll be fun conversations to tell people, I'm sorry, I can't send you business because you have a Pro3 camera and it can't be transferred to my classic account. Total B.S.

Dan I am wondering the same thing. I've had three reps reach out trying to upgrade me. I'm going to wait and see

	If Matterport is smart they will remove a limitation of using Pro3 scans on classic accounts. Just remember they told us they would ban transfer from new to classic but did not do it at the end. There cannot be any technical reason why pro3 scans won't work on classic account. At least I do not see any.

	They need a classic vault for the new contracts. One contract for all.
