I have seen (but not used) this which claims to calculate camera calibration: http://www.vision.caltech.edu/bouguetj/calib_doc/

If you want to learn about photogrammetry, I recommend this text: WOLF, P.R. and DEWITT, B.A., 2000. Elements of Photogrammetry. 3rd ed. Boston: McGraw Hill.

You need to do it in MATLAB, feeding in the settings of the camera and the positions and angles of the camera. If you have any kind of modern digital camera, you can usually get read the camera settings (but not physical positioning and angles) by examining EXIF data associated with the images.

Please try the Stereo Camera Calibrator app in the Computer Vision System Toolbox.
