Successor to Matterport Pro3 Camera?20817

Sdoughtie private msg quote post Address this user
Has anyone heard if there is a successor to the Pro 3 coming out?

I want to get an addition pro3 in case there is a problem with my current one, but will hold off if there is a successor coming.

I seriously doubt anything new will come out for at least the next couple of years, but I don’t have any inside knowledge.

I was told by a matterport insider that they're "always working on the next one". But who knows what that means in regards to when it will actually be here. I'm guessing also that it would be a year or two away at a minimum, but I don't have any concrete info on that either. I have absolutely worn my Pro3s out. I'll probably have to get another one soon.

Ok let me set the scoop straight with my luck with Matterport, if I buy another Pro3 camera I guarantee there will be a new release within months. 🤣🤣🤣🙃🙃🙃😂😂😂

Mike I sent you an email on the form looking for some info. Inside info on the Pro4 just kidding about Pro4 but serious about email.

Funny story. Bought a Pro 2. Just over 30 days later my stock news on MP stated a Pro 3 was soon to be released. Sweating bullets I filled out the return form with B&H Photo. Great customer service as they ok’d the return minus the return shipping. It was a few days past their return policy.

I doubt they'd release a Pro4 so soon.. I'd think they'd release some other product first.. maybe an axis update? who knows.

I ordered another Pro 3 last week. It was supposed to be delivered today and they cancelled it. No email or explanation from MP. Totally unacceptable.

I spoke to them, they do no know why, but they are still fulfilling the orders for the pro3.

@ScanYourSpace Yes, that's where I ordered it. I just ordered it again on the MP website.

Ugh sorry to say B&H ran a sale on the performance kit for $4995 last week with the free two day shipping.

@ron0987 I seen that post of yours. They also ran it over Christmas. Tried to see if it was still going on.
Unfortunately it appears the whole kit is no longer available. It even had the tripod dolly included. Something I haven’t truly needed but would come in handy.

B&H has great customer service. Bought all of my MP and photography gear, a half dozen+ Apple products and even insurance through them. They cover commercial usage vs others insurance products that don’t.

I spoke to support at MP they didn’t know why the order had been canceled. But they said that they are still fulfilling the orders. I already ordered one through MP. But thank you for the link to B&H!

Looks like FARO has come out with MP Pro 4:

FARO BLINK


This is where I imagined MP would be going, but I think the market demand is trending toward mobile or handheld SLAM devices such as systems from NAVVIS and XGRIDs. Very curious to see what direction MP will take.

@MatterFix if it Faro it won’t be cheap. But saying that I do got say they do put out a well built product.

@OrangeHill LOL, just got an email that my order shipped. Go figure. It's okay. For some reason I thought the Pro3 cost more than it actually did.

the Blink looks good but I doubt the images can compare to Matterport, they are in the lead when it comes to visuals.

Good point, @ScanYourSpace. I believe FARO and other manufacturers would also acknowledge that.
