Re: Camera offset a lot.... odd
Alan pretty much nailed it on the head. This is a "problem" many teams addressed last year as well.
Simply put, the mechanical alignment of the optics to the cmos sensor are not perfect. In addition, the optical components used have some manufacturing tolerances that can add to the "mis-alignment" as well. Just follow the advice Alan gave and you will be in good shape. What you need to be confident in is the cameras ability to reproduce it's positioning each time. If it does that, then you will be able to get accurate tracking information from it.
