r/OpenScan is a subreddit with 12k members. The most common kinds of discussions are solution requests and advice requests, and the community frequently discusses openscan, scan, mini, camera, and openscan mini, and they frequently recommend/review photogrammetry software.
Welcome! This is all about photogrammetry in general and the OpenScan.eu 3D Scanners in particular . Feel free to share your projects (3D scanning related) and ask any questions.

Solution Requests
: "Further testing of the Arducam 16mp camera with variable focus. The focus can be set in 4000+ steps between roughly 6cm and infinity. This will be a great improvement for the OpenScan devices (and probably many other applications too). Does anyone know a focus stacking script for the RPi?"
