hi. i have a problem with solvepnpransac. it just gives bad results. i have no idea whats wrong... here is a little program which shows the problem. there are 5 perfect point-correspondences. These should perfectly fit to a camera at point (1,0,0), showing into the x-direction, with a focallength of 1. solvePnP on the other hand gives very good results.
