    This document discusses important considerations for using IES lighting files in VRay SketchUp renderings. It notes that (1) the unit of measurement must be set to inches for IES lights to appear correctly, (2) the free IES Generator can be used to create custom IES files, and (3) physical camera settings like F-number, shutter speed, and ISO can be adjusted to control lighting and exposure.
