     Use it like any other camera. The only difference is far greater realism. No need for gimmick photography. I plan to print stereo pairs with my ink-jet printer as I do now from scans or pictures taken with the Pentax stereo attachment. These I view with a 19th-century Holmes Stereoscope. Check your grandparent’s attic, a local antique store or buy a reproduction. These are the best of all.

     However it is easy to make anaglyphs in Photoshop for viewing with red/cyan or green/magenta glasses. I needed the latter, stopped in at the nearby DVD rental store and the clerk handed me four pair for nothing. Anaglyphs can be shown on-line and viewed on your computer screen.

     This one is on my shopping list. Whether or not Fuji is crap, it is the very first digital stereo camera in history. Stereo viewing has been a part of my personal photography as well as 3-D modeling and rendering for a very long time.

   Me No Likesky . You still need to buy the Fuji 3D viewer to get 3D images out of this camera right?

   “*yawn* Fuji just give up! You’re irrelevant in the digital world.”

   Says who, an Anonymous? Fuji rules!!!! They produce some of the best compact’s ever, with splendid colors and extraordinary “stupid proof” results.
   This camera could be the first to come, because the future is in 3-D (accepted or die)!

     I’m sorry to tell you this, but they are very ” Crappy ” cameras. Nobody even uses them except the people who do not know anything about cameras. Nikon, Sony, or Canon is the best way to go. Kodak and Fujifilm should just team up, because they both make horrible cameras.

       Most cameras these days are pretty good. What’s crappy are the gearheads pretending to photographers that are littering the Internet with their “advice”.
