Camera offset a lot.... odd

We have our camera working. It tracks well, ignores the other lights, etc.

However, it seems to have a severe offset to one side. Even when close to the light (4-5 feet) it insists on pointing toward the left edge of the lightbox.

I modified the pixel to track in kevin's code from a default of 79 to a new value of 112 - this centers the camera on the box. However, that's a pretty huge offset.

We have 3 working lights to print, with diffusers etc, and it does it on all 3. We've turned off the overhead lights to make sure we have no interference and seen the same behavior.

I don't get it - the camera tracking should be independent of everything else. We tried both our 07 and our 06 camera.

Has anyone else seen this issue where the camera wants to the look just to the left of the light?
