3D Photo Gadget Reviewed

Posted by michael on from the binocular-vision dept.

Daniel Rutter writes "I've just reviewed Mission3-D's Photo3-D 303 kit. It's a simple and straightforward way to take 3D pictures with your existing digicam, but it otherwise doesn't live up to the hype. It turns out you can do the same thing better, for less money."

    If you have a digital camera that is quite fast and with manual controls, just take two photos focused differently. With this, given the focal length, you should be able to create a 3d image with minimal programming experience. In fact, if someone could find a way to reprogram camera firmware, it would be even easier.

    It's pretty easy to do, it shows you an faded image in the lcd while you move the camera. I've taken some great 3D shots with it.
