    We use the snapshot feature of voxl-camera-server to capture images while the drone is flying.

    As far as I understood the camera specs are encoded in this file: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-camera-server/-/blob/master/misc_files/usr/share/modalai/voxl-camera-server/camera_config.xml?ref_type=heads

    We use IMX412, and it has 2.7mm focal length

    But for example, we see the following when analze the exif data from an image (focal length is 2.2mm, fnumber is 2.4 but should be 3.2)
