What it does
Lighting, cameras and look-dev in Blender 5.2 - studio 3-point and product lighting, HDRI environments, sun/sky exteriors, interiors, light linking, physically based light units, camera focal lengths/composition/DOF, cyclorama backdrops, looping turntables for asset presentation. Use when presenting assets, setting up scenes for rendering, or judging materials under consistent light.
Lighting & Look-dev
The execution model is in blender-core. Render settings are in blender-rendering. Full time-of-day, night and fog environments are in blender-time-of-day.

This builds a camera framed to the bounding sphere (on the narrower frame axis), a key/fill/rim area-light rig scaled to the asset, an optional 18%-grey cyclorama, and a pivot that orbits camera + lights + backdrop in a seamless loop. The asset itself isn't modified. Everything lives in the LD_Lookdev collection, and re-running replaces it. Set the render resolution before running, because framing depends on the aspect ratio.
