Should it not be 15 in both cases?
Not necessarily. Scanning the list of different cameras from Point Grey, they range in frame rate from 7 all the way to 60. I can confirm that the Bumblebee is set for 15 fps from the factory.
What's the purpose of specifying empty string in the case of camera.launch
then? Shouldn't we just leave it out, or leave it commented or something?
We could also just set it to 7 and leave it for the user to change should they need to. I'd be fine with that; what do you think?
If the default is 7.5, then it doesn't make sense to re-specify that same value with a param. I think the camera.launch file should either remain unchanged, or should include a commented-out line, eg:
<!-- <param name="frame_rate" value="15" /> -->
Okay, that's fine with me. Leave it as 15, and comment out.
Helpful if the driver doesn't default to the correct frame rate for your camera.
