With the US release of FujiFilm’s FinePix REAL 3D W1 Stereoscopic Camera, I thought I’d do a quick round up for those interested in this new 3D consumer toy.  You can check out our previous posts on the FujiFilm REAL 3D W1 Camera here.

The best of rest is as follows:

• Blog pocket-lint offers a fairly balanced review of Real 3D W1 Camera.

• The 2D camera buffs at photographyblog.com have put together a quality extensive review.

• The Akihabara News from Japan was one of the first to post a review (they hated it).

DID YOU KNOW? – The FujiFilm REAL 3D W1 Digital Camera is just the first in FujiFilm’s 3D consumer range. Check out our story on FujiFilms REAL 3D Digital Photo Frame here (this stereoscopic 3D photo frame requires NO GLASSES).

READ ON FOR OUR PREVIOUS FEATURE ON THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND THE FujiFilm REAL 3D W1 Camera:  

The 3D camera depends heavily on a newly developed chip called the “RP (Real Photo) Processor 3D” which synchronizes the data passed to it by both CCD sensors, and instantaneously blends the information into a single high quality image, for both stills and movies.
“Built-in 3D auto” determines optimal shooting conditions from both sensors. 3D auto means that as soon as the shutter is depressed, key metrics for the image, such as focus, zoom range, exposure, etc. are synchronized. The camera is also fitted with built-in synchro control, giving 0.001-second precision for shutter control and movie synchronization.
The processor uses the very latest technologies of high sensitivity and high resolution as the newest 2D processors.

Special identical high quality compact Fujinon lenses have been developed for the 3D system to ensure complete conformity between the left and right images.
The LCD monitor system has also been completely revised. The camera is fitted with a 2.8-inch, 230,000 pixel LCD. Thanks to a new engineering approach, screen flickering and image deterioration, thought to be difficult to overcome, are reduced to an absolute minimum to achieve beautiful, natural 3D images. The screen will also resolve 2D images as any other camera LCD.

Using know-how gained through years of development of Frontier, Fujifilm has developed a 3D printing system using a fine pitch lenticular sheet giving high-precision, and fine quality multiple viewpoint 3D like never before.

FinePix Real 3D System is also paving the way for new possibilities in 2D photo enjoyment.
The heart of the system is a new concept camera fitted with dual lenses. Each lens can capture stills or movies from a slightly different position, producing the basis of the 3D image.
By combining new dual lens system, new functions can be achieved, for example, image quality improvement function (Simultaneous Dual-Image Shooting: Multi-Expression). For users, this is just one possibility from a dual lens camera. Other fascinating possibilities include:
