Introducing “Holds”
Instead, we need to tell SynthEyes “the camera is not translating” during the second section of the shot. We call this a “hold,” and there is a Hold button for this on the Summary and Solver control panels. By animating the Hold button, you can tell SynthEyes which range(s) of frames that the camera is panning but not translating.
SynthEyes calculates a single XYZ camera position for each section of frames where the hold button is continuously on—though it continues to calculate separate pan, tilt, and roll (and optionally zoom) for each frame. (Note: you do not have to set up a hold region if the camera comes to a stop and pans, but only a little, so that most of the trackers are visible both before and after the hold region. That can still be handled as a regular shot.)
