Alexey,
I use the Pro version, and have in some cases added dozens of markers. To no avail, if the subject I intend to model has repetitive features (architecture), as it seems the false matches outweigh the manually places ones. I even get cameras under the ground etc., and often no trick works to fix them.
Manual placing would be really neat, as I can measure relative camera position very well using lasers, as well as align my camera perfectly.
Alternatively, or additionally: an option that tells Photoscan to ignore ANY points found EXCEPT the markers! That should work, too, with fewer markers (4 minimum). However, I do not know how well dense point cloud generation would then work, as there would still be false matches for that step.
