Output from solvePnP doesn't match projectPoints
I get strange data from solvePnP, so I tried to check it with projectPoints:
retval, rvec, tvec=cv2.solvePnP(opts, ipts, mtx, dist, flags=cv2.SOLVEPNP_ITERATIVE)
print(retval,rvec,tvec)
proj, jac = cv2.projectPoints(opts, rvec, tvec, mtx, dist)
print(proj,ipts)
here opts are 3d points with z=0, detected on this picture:
And ipts are taken from this pic (only part of picture here):
I've checked points themselves (detected with SIFT, points are detected correctly and pairing in a right way).
Now I want to test if rvec and tvec, found by SolvePnP is correct, so I invoke cv2.projectPoint to test if 3d points are projected to the image points. And here is what I have:
So I see that projected points lie outside of image, having y<0.
(retval from solvePnP is true)

Is that a crop of the image you used, or did you use the crop? If you used the crop, then your camera matrix and distortion coefficients are probably wrong.
