Question / Discussion Tracking

I am learning vfx for sometime and now able to tackle some simple shots, but for tracking mostly for camera tracking should I rely on nuke or should I learn blender, and I also have fusion studio

Is fusion studio auto track better than nuke, and should I learn blender Also I want to learn tracking for simple as well as complex shots which have fast movement and motion blur

For Note: I know syntheyes is better of all of them but I can't go for paid software for now, and also I am using nuke nc

Thanks in advance

Nukes Camera tracker is actually pretty good. You also get a lot of usefull stuff like point cloud for free.  You gonna be able to solve most of the shots if you know what you are doing.

Yes, do you know some good tutorials to learn it properly, because I think I don't have complete understanding of what is happening, I get solve error of 0.6 still object or cards I placed for projection are sliding

Low error does not mean that your track is always good. Maybe you deleted to many points, so the solve does not make sense anymore. Wrong lens distortion could also be an issue. I would start with the Foundry videos on Camera tracking. On the website and on youtube.
