Why the CaptureLevel Outperforms Standard Tripod Levelling for the Matterport Pro3

When it comes to 3D scanning with the Matterport Pro3 camera, precision and efficiency go hand-in-hand.

Levelling your camera correctly is not just a recommendation—it’s essential for consistent scan alignment, minimising errors, and reducing post-processing headaches.

Traditionally, users have relied on the small 9mm spirit level built into their tripod and manually adjusted the leg height to try to achieve a level setup.

But let’s face it: that process is tedious, time-consuming, and often inaccurate. That’s where the CaptureLevel makes all the difference.

The Problem with Traditional Levelling

Matterport’s own tripod offering includes a small 10mm bubble level. While this helps give a general sense of balance, it’s far from ideal when precision is key. To adjust, users often find themselves:

• Extending and retracting tripod legs manually
• Eye-balling the level and guessing micro-adjustments
• Repeating the process multiple times before starting a scan

This not only increases setup time but can also introduce small errors that add up throughout a larger scan.

CaptureLevel: Designed for Precision and Speed

Enter theCaptureLevel—a custom-designed levelling solution that combines a high-visibility 60mm bubble level with a three-point tri-leveller system for pinpoint accuracy. The difference is immediate and dramatic.

Key Benefits:

✅ High Precision 60mm Level
Being almost 20 times larger, the large-format level offers significantly greater visibility and precision than the 9mm level found on standard tripods. It allows you to see the bubble position clearly at a glance, even in lower light conditions.

✅ Micro-Adjust with Tri-Leveller Feet
Instead of faffing about with tripod legs, you can level the Pro3 by finely adjusting the three levelling screws—saving you time and effort while providing a rock-steady platform.

✅ Reduced Human Error
Manual levelling with tripod legs often results in misalignment due to inconsistent leg lengths and surface variations. MatterLevel eliminates this issue by giving you consistent, repeatable control.

✅ Improved Scan Accuracy
Better levelling leads to more accurate scanning, fewer misalignments between scan positions, and faster post-processing. It’s especially noticeable when scanning large spaces or working in areas with uneven floors.

Who Benefits Most?

Whether you’re a professional surveyor, real estate photographer, or scanning large commercial spaces, the CaptureLevel provides a level (pun intended) of confidence and control that the basic tripod simply can’t match.

For Matterport service providers who want to maximise productivity and minimise frustration on-site, upgrading to MatterLevel is a no-brainer.
