1. Mastering the Basics:
• Effortless Auto Solve: Discover the simplicity of the "Solve" button, automating point and scene alignment, camera solve, and cleanup.
• Exporting Camera Data: Learn how to export camera data in various formats for seamless integration into your preferred applications.

2. Delving into Advanced Features:
• Understanding the Process: Gain insights into the camera solver's workflow. Learn how it identifies "features" (key points) and tracks them across frames, ultimately transforming them into 3D data.
• H-Pix Error Analysis: Master the art of interpreting the H-Pix graph, a vital tool for assessing tracking accuracy.

3. Optimizing the Solve:
• Focal Length Explained: Grasp the significance of focal length and why it's often recommended to keep it "unknown" during the initial solve, especially if you lack specific lens details.
• Fine-Tuning Solve Parameters: Learn how to adjust various parameters to refine your solve:
• Minimum Trackers per Frame: Increase this value for potentially better results, particularly in longer shots.
• Balancing Maximum Track Account: While raising this might provide more features, be cautious of extended processing times and potential inaccuracies.
• Refine Blip Size: Tailor the size of "blips" (search areas) based on your video's resolution and level of detail. Experiment with different values for the most accurate tracking.
• Aligning Your Scene: Learn the steps involved in manually defining the ground plane and origin point to guarantee precise camera data.
