3D digital camera

3D digital camera

Fujifilm has developed a compact digital camera that can be used to shoot three-dimensional (3D) photos and movies that can be viewed without special glasses. The FinePix REAL 3D W1 uses a “groundbreaking” system comprising two lenses whose images are merged in a single 3D picture or movie.

Users can view the images on the camera’s rear display screen or a larger separate monitor. Fujifilm said it would also offer a special 3D photo printing service. “Viewed with just the naked eye, 3D images come alive with breathtaking reality and natural beauty,” Fujifilm said in a statement.

The gadget will go on sale in Japan early next month with a price tag of 60,000 yen, followed by overseas markets in late August.

    How much will the film or (is it a memory card/stick?) going to cost & how much for the printing?

    Yes it would be nice to see an example of a 3D picture.

    I'd like a more expansive explanation of the “groundbreaking” system also.

    They used to sell 3D disposable cameras at Kansai Airport. Anyone know why they stopped and if they do still sell them. They used to be really cool and cheap presents to take back to people in your home country.....holy cow I AM turning Japanese (taking souvenirs back to my own country for the friends...hang the head in shame!!!!)
