Unreal 4.27 built in lens calibrator tutorial, how to make it work every time!

Last time I said the Unreal 4.27 lens calibrator worked, but didn't give you the right nodal point/entrance pupil every time. Well I found out how to make it work reliably and it's pretty easy! When you are capturing VIVE positions in the nodal point calculator, just make sure to do some with the VIVE at different distances from the camera and it should work every time!

Also, if you're having problems getting the distortion calibrator to work, try using a checkerboard with larger squares, I went from 1.7cm to 2.5cm and it started working much better!

Be sure to check out the previous tutorial that shows the whole process for calibration.

Please let me know if this tip works for you!
