All out Bangalore

It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about Fujifilm’s FinePix Real 3D camera, but as the twin-lensed shooter nears that scheduled September release some more details are spilling out — including the price, which will be “around $600″ at launch. Yeah, it’s steep, and that’s not all: to properly view the images you’ll

need to either shell out for special prints with a plastic lenticular lens on it or buy a special stereoscopic LCD photo frame, and none of that really screams “cheap.” Honestly, our instinct would be to spend all that scratch on a good DSLR or even something like the Olympus E-P1, but there’s always a chance Fujifilm’s about to reveal the public’s deep-rooted desire for 3D snapshots. We’ll see — anyone dying for one of these?

How Fuji Film’s Fine pix real 3D works?

the camera is not much bigger or heavier than some conventional digicams. The most obvious difference is that Fuji’s 10-megapixel shooter employs two lenses, spaced about the same distance apart as human eyes, which allow for the taking of simultaneous photos of the same scene from different angles. This is where the 3-D magic originates. When two slightly different images are presented discretely to the right and left eyes of a viewer, that person’s brain combines them into a single image, resulting in a stereoscopic illusion of depth.
