Genuinely Interesting Gear Dept.
I have to say that over the years I have had a lot of fun with the gimmickly Photo3-D gear available at the Photo3-D online store. The company is Mission3-D out of New Hampshire, and the lash-up sells for $129. It allows you to create a kind of old-fashioned 3D effect with your digital camera using offset red and blue edges. It’s actually quite phenomenal that it works so well. One thing that’s particularly charming is looking at the pictures with children, since kids seem to love the 3D effect. This is actually a lot of fun.Fun stuff!

How 3-D Works: Mars revealed
Several industry analysts say amateur 3-D photography experienced a comeback last year, spurred both by the availability of inexpensive digital cameras and the summer blockbuster Spy Kids 3-D , said to be the first popular 3-D feature film in decades. There are various methods for making and viewing 3-D images. Mission 3-D makes its own version of 3-D glasses as well as kits designed to help any owner of a digital camera do 3-D magic at home.

Digital Innovations: The Return Of 3D Photography
Just in time for the holidays, 3D is back and gone digital. Fresh on the heels of the blockbuster summer movie Spy Kids 3D, you can now make stereo photographs using the digital camera you already own. I've been a fan of 3D since the premiere of the 1952 film Bwana Devil starring the late Robert Stack. While 3D movies come and go, three-dimensional photography has never gone out of fashion.

Taking 3D pictures
A device that enables anyone with a digital camera to take 3-D photographs! Photo3-D works with any digital camera, and the package includes everything needed to take, see and share 3-D photographs. The device attaches to a camera using a standard tripod socket. The user then takes a picture, and then uses the device to take another picture - capturing what is known as a 'stereo-pair' of images. Photo3-D Mixer software creates a 3-D photograph from the two images. Using glasses, the user can then view the 3D image, whether it is printed on paper, displayed on a computer screen, or projected onto a wall.

"The future is looking good"
Photo3-D: Three-dimensional pictures are always "in"--just look at a ViewMaster or "Spy Kids 3D" if you have any doubts. So the Photo3-D package is bound to raise eyebrows on Christmas morning. You mount any digital camera onto the stand, take a picture, slide the camera down the stand, and take a second picture. The software melds the two pictures into one, and view or print the single 3D image. It also prints out the two pictures for viewing in a stereoscopic viewer. Hey, it's a one-trick pony, but so is ViewMaster, and that's been popular for decades. view full story

Sure, you’ll have to say “cheese” twice, but Mission3-D’s Photo3-D 303 Kit ($129) makes it worth the effort. The kit lets digital cameras with a tripod socket take photos with a 3-D effect that can be printed on any printer. Here’s how it works: The camera takes one phone from left to right sides of the tripod-mounted platform. The images are sent to your computer, where software merges them into a photo that pops when viewed through glasses with red-and-blue lenses.

Three-Dimensional Digital by Tim Grey - For many years, it has been possible to produce three-dimensional (3D) images with stereoscopic cameras and other tricks. Producing 3D images has been possible with digital, but there haven’t been any particularly great tools for assembling 3D images easily. Fortunately, a new product has just been released that has made it fast and easy to produce 3D images from your digital camera.

Spontaneous 3D
Johnny Cash. Cruiser bikes. 3D technology. One of life’s great phenomena is how big hits vanish from sight and then make a prolific surge back from the underground. This is the year 3D awakens from its traditional 50-year dormancy: 2003 sees the first popular 3D feature film in decades ("Spy Kids 3D"), a return of utilities for 3D movies and games and, before the year is out, the first 3D screen on a notebook computer. So it only makes sense that a company would also introduce a simple and affordable kit for taking 3D pictures with a digital camera. And someone just did. We spent a week with the Photo3D 303 kit from Mission3D to see if this toolkit delivers a satisfying stereographic “pop” to our pictures.

Photo3-D: Picturing the World in Three Dimensions
Now you can turn digital photos into Son of the Creature From the Black Lagoon.
The first 3-D film I ever saw was Creature From the Black Lagoon. You know the signature scene -- swamp monster paws distressed damsel and tears through screen. As a 10-year-old viewer, with stereoscopic glasses perched on the edge of my nose, I thought it was the greatest thing since Lassie. To my chagrin, the 3-D film craze of the '50s never really caught on. But three-dimensional photos and lenticular images -- of the winking Jesus variety that you see in gift shops -- still hold a thrill (and a market). So when I was told that Mission3-D had come out with a gizmo that transforms digital snapshots into 3-D, I had to see it for myself.

Help! Grandma's gone 3-D
Photo3D ($130, www.mission3d.com) can practically make Grandma's arms reach out of the frame to hug you--provided she doesn't fidget when you shoot the same picture twice by sliding the camera along a metal and plastic bar about 4 inches long. The twin shoot provides the view from the left eye, then the right. After you load both images onto your computer, the Photo3D Mixer software merges them into a tinted picture that creates the illusion of depth when you put on the pair of goofy, red-blue glasses that come in the kit. (The prints are close to full color but heavy with red and blue shading for the 3-D effect.) The software shows you how well the 3-D illusion works on the screen before you print, and you can tweak the image to enhance the effects. We found the process intuitive and quick with rewarding results. After looking at a Photo3D image, one friend raved, "It really works!"

Au début on pourrait penser qu'il s'agit d'un gadget sans interêt, mais il semblerait que d'après l'article de DPReview, l'appareil Mission3-D soit finalement bien plus "cool" qu'il n'y parait. Le Mission3-D est en fait un trépied muni d'un genre de glissière sur lequel on fixe son appareil photo numérique. Cette glissière permet de prendre 2 photos en décalant l'appareil comme il se doit, ce afin de créer la fameuse stéréoscopie. Ensuite à l'aide du logiciel fourni, les deux photos sont assemblées pour consituer la photo en relief à regarder avec les célébrissimes lunettes 3D bicolor. Au final, le procédé est vraiment simple et peu couteux (enfin ca depend du point de vue, car l'appareil est quand même vendu 129 dollars US) . Bien entendu, cette technique ne permet pas de prendre des photos de sujets en mouvement, mais pour les paysages cela s'avère parfait.

Double Take on 3-D
IF YOU HAPPENED to catch Spy Kids-3D in the cinemas this summer and just can’t get enough of those funky red and blue glasses, then I’ve got just the gadget for you. The Photo3D 303 Kit from US company Mission3D has all the ingredients for you to create and print your own three-dimensional photographs – and it comes complete with those glasses so you can see your images in the third dimension. What the Photo3D Kit includes is a tripod that allows you to take photographs from exactly the positions of your right eye and left eye, then put the two photographs together with some software and print it out as a single image which, when seen through looks like the real thing – or at least very close to it. The concept is nothing new. Scientists have known about so-called stereo vision for a long time – actually, since the 1840s – and millions of devices that offered a 3-D view of objects, then called stereoscopes, were sold by the late 1800s. 3-D imaging also enjoyed immense popularity in the 1950s, when the first 3-D movies caught the attention of audiences in the US. The kit really makes creating 3-D images easy and accessible to everyone, except everyone needs those funny glasses in order to see it as 3-D. Otherwise it just looks like a really distorted photograph with bad colour. At about $1,000 HKD per package, the Photo 3D Kit is not too expensive – especially when it comes with a functional mini-tripod which can be used for other purposes. Combined with readily available digital cameras and printers, it makes stereoscopic imaging as easy as point-shoot, slide camera, point-shoot. The only problem is that in order to make sense of those photos, you need the glasses. Available from Mission3D’s website at: www.mission3-d.com
