Finally I have had the opportunity to test the new camera setup in LB. I have read a lot about it here in the forum, on our long holiday trip, negative (primarily) and very few positive feedback. It was tingly in my fingers to be able to test it myself.
To make it reasonably “neutral”, I deleted my camera settings from my LB, to be able to start from scratch, just like a new user.
Camera is not found on my Mac, I tried a lot…, but no, LB will not find any other camera than the one built into the computer.
It seems strange, because facetime has no problems switching from one camera to the LB camera.
I can follow “new” users who are disappointed already here when their camera is not found.
To get further in the text, I imported an old camera setup, deleted all calibrations and was able to start the tutorial from the setup itself (the camera itself was recognized immediately with the existing profile)
I tried, as suggested, to calibrate the lens with the targets as described in the tutorial with an iPad, made 18 images but only got 75% hit points. Here I cheated a little, because I know little about the calibration process and redid the test with an engraved version of the test board. New users often don’t want to know that 75% recognition is not enough and only later in the process will be confronted with a bad result.
I reached 93% with the engraved board, not bad but not my record either 
I took 22 pictures by the way.
Then I used the tutorial for workspace alignment in auto mode and it was done in zero time.
How precise is the result???
On my 600x400 mm work area I have a deviation from -0.4mm to +0.6mm. Normally I would redo the calibration if it is over +/- 0.5mm but to “simulate” a new user, I just continued.
I do the final test with a target that I freely place in the middle and the 4 corners of my work area. Here I place the target freehand and try to hit as precisely as possible.
I did not use average deviation but the result from the center test, X+0.5 Y+0.1 .
I think the result is “good enough” if you consider that it is a relatively large work area and no fine adjustments have been made.
What makes the biggest difference here with me on my Mac is that it is now also possible to manipulate the image itself, exposure, contrast, gamma… It raises the precision possibilities to another level.
To fine-tune the calibration, I do a more detailed test with at least 12 test fields. Then I can find out where I have what kind of deviations. I can also use that for an average deviation calculation or I can divide my work area into different quality fields for more precise use of the camera.
Conclusion:
I am divided, if I were a beginner I would not be able to get past step 1 - camera finding. Possibly “I” could get help to move on from the forum or LB directly. 
When the camera is included (found), the rest of the calibration procedure is easy and straightforward to do with a very acceptable result. The deviation is below 0.5mm and I am sure that I can get the tolerance down again to below 0.2mm (with a little extra work)
It is a big step forward that the developers have made - Congratulations and many thanks for this fine tool. 
PS. one small annoying thing, I still keep getting “unmotivated” connection problems - irritating.
