Capture Multiple Cameras at Once with Batch Capture

Shoot one high-resolution still from every camera in your scene in a single click, with consistent naming and optional matte passes per camera.

Use this when you have several cameras (turnaround views, vehicle angles, lighting setups, character poses) and you want one shot from each, with consistent naming.

Batch Capture lives in the middle of the Capture tab: build a camera list, set an optional delay, and capture all with one click.

Steps

1. Open Batch Capture

   Open the Capture tab and expand Batch Capture.

2. Build the camera list

   Click Add All Scene Cameras, or drag specific cameras into the list one at a time. Reorder and remove entries as needed.

3. Override resolutions if needed

   Optionally tick Override Resolution on individual entries to give a single camera a different size.

4. Set a batch delay if needed

   Adjust Batch Delay under Settings if you need a small pause between captures (0 to 1 seconds). This is useful when post-processing or particle systems need a frame to settle.

5. Capture

   Click Capture All (N cameras).

Result

One file per camera, each named with that camera’s name. If Render Mattes is enabled under Settings, every enabled matte pass is also rendered for each camera. The summary dialog reports how many shots and matte files were written.

The button label changes to Capture All + Mattes when matte rendering is on, so you can see at a glance whether you are about to write a lot of files.

Use this for store-asset turnarounds: set up four cameras around your prop, then capture all of them at 4K with one click.
