haha, not saying that RC ignores certain settings based on acquisition techniques. I just want to disable any settings were created and intended for use in aiding alignment of laser, or captures where you’re physically moving the camera each shot , in order to reduce any extra computation that would be useless for a non moving camera. Camera priors, for example, might be one of them since the camera never moves.
From what I understand, using a turntable is sort of tricking photogrammetry programs into thinking that the camera has been moving around. By default, it seems all of these programs are built with the assumption that the camera is physically moving position, thus many of the settings were created with that in mind.
I’ve been trying to go to the help menu for each setting and while it technically tells you what each setting does, it doesn’t always give you an idea of when/how it’s beneficial to use them–“yeah, if your camera is stationary, this setting is pointless as it’s intended to help align moving cameras and laser data–If your camera is stationary or not laser, leaving it on just causes RC to go through extra calculations that it doesn’t need to and is slowing down your calculation” <<< that is what i’m better trying to understand.
