One more remark on the camera correction issue... The camera correction does actually matter quite a bit, especially where it concerns the movie alignments in the early phases of processing, as Tanaka mentioned too. What I want to point out here is that the effect of the camera correction needs to be judged directly at the camera level by the FRC, or better still, by the FRI (https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.03223) and not at the end of a long processing chain where the influence of tons of unrelated intermediate processing decisions have been made. (Yes the quality of the shoes of a football player has an influence on who wins the game, but blaming the outcome of a game on the quality of shoes of the football player..., well... ). Since the camera correction significantly influences the movie alignment procedures, and assuming all processing is done adhering to the appropriate sampling and processing rules, the main influence on the 3D output of the game will be in the number of particles effectively available for 3D reconstruction. That number will affect the FSC (Harauz & van Heel 1986), yes, but less than it will affect the R-weighted Fourier Shell Information FSI (https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.03223)! Bottom line: take care of your metrics and stick to the rules and you will win the game!
