Me encantó el curso y el resultado. Recomiendo complementar el curso con búsquedas en Youtube sobre algunas funciones y procesos en Agisoft que no son abordados a profundidad, como el manejo de máscaras o los procesos de Refine y Smooth.

El curso ha superado mis expectativas, yo modelo 3D en 3ds Max, tengo una cámara canon profesional y tengo acceso a un drone DJI, por lo cual me interese en la fotogrametría, tiene mucho material descargable y la presentación del curso es excelente.

Un curso sorprendente y unas técnicas poco conocidas para hacer fotos 3D que sirvan para modelado e impresión. Muy recomendable. Detallado y bien explicado paso a paso.
