The problem is that the distortion parameters change with the focus. They
are different for short distance (as in the test shots) and the far distance
(where the camera is usually used).

If calibrations at both close and far distance are available, they could be
distinguished either by comments in the lens section, by a separate field in
the header.

Here are some pages about how to calibrate the distortion coefficients:
