Free/Cheap Quality Matchmoving Software

Ok, it has been asked about enough to warrant me posting this so others interested in 3D Matchmoving may learn and benefituser added image

NOTE: This thread is about 3rd party 3D Matchmoving software only.
If enough people show interest, I'll create a sticky talking about available 2D tracking solutions as well.
(i.e, Point Trackers - pretty much available in every compositor
...and Planar trackers available from Imagineer Systems.)


Ok, first I'll start with the best FREE ones out there:

Voodoo
https://www.digilab.uni-hannover.de/download.html

Icarus - https://www.peerlessproductions.com/t...es/Icarus.html
(NOTE: this link/site may die anytime, so grab it while you can)
Now owned by The Pixel Farm and developed into their flagship products.
This version of Icarus is free, courtesy of The Pixel Farm.

Now here is a list of the best CHEAP/low-cost software:

PFHoe Pro (formerly Icarus, bought by The Pixel Farm)
$216 US

Syntheyes - $400 US https://www.ssontech.com


...So, there you have it, the best of the free/cheap 3D Matchmoving softwareuser added image

Questions regarding the above software should not be posted here, they should be posted in their respective forum/support communities.

Feel free to post links to any new 3D tracking software that you may find out there, and I'll include them in this listuser added image
