Which Cameras exist in PIX4Dmapper Database and which Parameters are used?

 

All registered cameras, and each camera's parameters in the PIX4Dmapper camera database are registered in the icmdb.xml file located in the PIX4Dmapper installation folder, which is stored, by default, in:

C:\Users\Your Username\AppData\Local\pix4d\common\19

Tip: When using Windows File Explorer, the AppData folder is not visible by default. To view the hidden items click the View tab on File Explorer’s ribbon and click the Hidden items checkbox in the Show/hide section.
Example: 15MP image captured with a Canon EOS 500D using 18mm focal length:
