Hi,
The Camera Calibrator is enough.
Currently, you can do everything with the Camera Calibrator that you could do with the Basic Calibrator except focus encoder positions. While the Camera Calibrator also calculates lens distortion, which you can not do in the Basic Calibrator. You can do focus encoder positions if you have an encoder transmitting your camera lens's focus value. Even then, you should first do the calibration in the Camera Calibrator and then load the calibration profile in the Basic Calibrator to do the focus calibration.
