Hello
Years ago (like around 2015 i guess (?)) I somewhat built my own custom "face scanner" consisting of 11 Cannon "Point and shoot cameras" - compact cheap cameras... I used 2 types - Canon A2500 and Cannon Ixus 132. (5x and 6x = 11 in total). I used it to scan my face. The results were ok i guess, mixing 2 different camera types (although both with the same Mpx - 16 Mpx) (Canon Ixus 132 and Canon A2500) didnt seem to bother Agisoft Photoscan.
Im currently thinking about expanding the number of cameras (probably by 5 at most, but maybe more). My question is- can i use even other different versions of Canon compact cameras? Or do i need to stick only to the 2 types i already have (Ixus 132, A2500)...? Like can i combine even more types than 2? Im eyeing buying used Canon IXUS 160 (which has 20 Mpx sensors NOT 16 as the old cameras i have)... My question is: Can i combine multiple different Cannon Ixus (and Canon A) point and shoot cameras? Even with different MPx (16 vs 20, maybe even with 14...?). Will it bother agisoft program? Will it give me subpar results (in comparison if i used ONLY the exact same type of camera (all Ixus 132 for example)...?
1) Do i have to worry or is it ok to combine different canon compact cameras?
2) Is there a limit to how many types can i combine...? Currently i have 2 types, can i combine even 5 different types for example?
3) Does the MPx difference matter? (16 Mpx VS 20 Mpx (and maybe ill buy even some 14 Mpx)) wont it bother the program...?
Thank you
