An illustrative camera calibration system accesses a set of images captured by one or more cameras at a scene. The set of images may each depict a same element of image content present at the scene, but may depict the element of image content differently in each image so as to show an apparent movement of the element from one image to another. The camera calibration system applies a structure-from-motion algorithm to the set of images to generate calibration parameters for the one or more cameras based on the apparent movement of the element of image content shown in the set of images. Additionally, the camera calibration system provides the calibration parameters for the one or more cameras to a 3D modeling system configured to model the scene based on the set of images. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
