ParametrizeCamera_LoadAndSave.cpp

Import/export camera property files.

The sample code shows how to export the property configurations of the selected camera as a XML file to the local PC, and import the XML file from the local PC to the selected cameras to fast configure all its properties without the inconvenience of configuring its property one by one.
