So Adobe botched the manipulation of the 3D camera in CS4. I’m an experienced 3D artist and I find navigating 3D in CS4 painful and clunky. The view rotation is completely backwards. If you pull right, the object should rotate in the direction of the pull. Photoshop does exactly the opposite for some inexplicable reason.
And on top of the that, you should be able to rotate the view without dropping the current tool. Photoshop forces you to drop a tool to switch to a view rotation tool. Then re-invoke the previous tool. It’s a cludgy.
Finally, I find that the camera orientation (Orbit tool) way too easily causes the object to tumble in difficult to control ways. So you have to switch to the Roll Camera tool to upright your camera. Again, it’s WAY clunky. I have a hard time believing Adobe had experienced 3D artist beta test this software before it was released.
I really hope they do an update that addresses this. It’s driving me crazy.
