@duke2 : No I dont use that
@duke2 : No I dont use that trick !! hehehehehehe.... sorry duke2. I rather using standard camera than vrayCam cause it getting good result as same as vraycam were! and it can apply in general perpective view too!! not like U use vraycam,every time u rotate viewport and render it (no vray cam added), it getting too bright or too dark result! that what I hate from vray cam!! it's not general!! just that!!

I need the physical camera because i have a sun that is 1.0 intensity, which means everything is white if i use the standard camera and all my scenes are setup this way (like a lot of people's) so it's just a way of ensuring the rendered thumbnails show the model like they would in my scene :)

Very impressed with the update! Still won't allow me to use the vray physical camera though. Could you add a "use first scene camera" checkbox in render thumbnail settings next to custom model scene? It should still use the other settings like the FOV and angles and auto-positioning of the camera :)
