Any interest here in stereography / 2D-to-3D conversion?

Any interest here in stereography /2D-to-3D conversions?

No. I have enough issues with taking a 3D scene and turning it into a flat 2D image.

We get the occasional visitor who is doing something a bit different, but for the most part the members generally stick with more typical aspects of photography.

What's the process?

How does one do it?

hmmmm 3D macro?

I showed this picture before, not so long ago.



The stills are made by the two normal camera's in the bottom. Two cameras placed next to each other, like your eyes. I've learned that this kind of photography was very popular in the 19th century. The two pictures are combined and given a green and red color. When viewing them with a red-green glasses you see 3-d.

The top one is a 3-d 180 degrees video camera.

When I was in Jena, Germany, I visited the Carl Zeiss Museum there. There was a lot of holograms, giving you a 3-d experience of a portrait.

Brian,
3-d macro can be very scaring

Ahhh, I had a camera that recorded stereographic images in one frame and you used a pair of glasses to view.

Also two frames. I searched your link quick

First introduced on the Optio 230, the Optio 330 RS, offers a unique 3D recording mode, which produces three-dimensional "stereo pairs" of images similar to old-fashioned stereographs. The camera guides you to capture two images of the same subject (one just slightly off-center from the other) and then combines them as a "stereo pair" in a single frame of image memory. A transparent display of the first image captured remains on the LCD monitor, so that you can keep everything aligned as you move the camera over slightly and capture the second image. (Very slick, this eliminates one of the biggest problems with hand held 3D stereo photography.) A pair of 3D viewing glasses comes with the Optio 330 RS, and works whether viewing 3D images in the Parallel or Cross formats. (Parallel means you view the stereo photo with your eyes looking straight on, while Cross means that you cross your eyes to see the stereo effect. - Most people seem to have an easier time with the Cross format, but the 330RS supports either method.)

You've to take 2 pictures sequential. I think shooting moving subjects will be impossible with the Optio this way.

I don't know what is meant by Parallel and Cross. I think, not sure, parallel means looking at two pictures at the same time, while cross would mean combining those pictures to one and just look at one picture. With special glasses.

Hi David

I had a passing interest in the subject many years ago when i used stereo aerial photos with a stereo viewer to look at the topography of an island for which there were no topographical maps available. I commissioned a firm to take the photos and produce contour maps from them. I've no idea what technique they used however to produce the maps. I guess it would be a lot easier these days with digital photography and the right software.

George - there are stereoscopic adapters for camera lenses, but qualtity?

I know that Panasonic makes a stereo lens for the mFT line of cameras, but this was primarily targeted at the 3D video market, rather than for stills, but there is no reason it could not be used that way, so 3D motion shots; not an issue. Both images are recorded on the same frame. It's not a genre I have any interest in.

I think with 3-d photography the focus is more on the framing and the effect. I wonder the effect of 3-d movies. I think one can make scaring effects. Looking through a VR eyewear as it's mentioned in your link.
