Is this the future of Visual Media?

3D . . .
Fuji have just launched TODAY a 3D compact camera,
some teething problems with the focusing but a big step in technology I think.Peter Jackson the movie director announced or stated recently he will only be shooting
movies in 3D from now on! Is this soon to make your new LCD or Plasma TV obsolete?
Does it move Photography into a completly different realm?A big plateful of food for thought, is the furute exciting?
Who is Peter Jackson?
3D should be fun, but it’s hardly ground breaking now.

3D, I think personally this has massive implications, people think of uncomfortable glasses
when they hear of 3D movies and lame token effects but if a serious movie Producer/Director
is going to start shooting his movies in 3D surely those potential block-busters are not going
to be resigned to the cinemas, what about the DVD sales and rentals and the whole branding
and complimentary sales of 3D gear.If the movies are to be DVD-edised what is the point if you cannot view them in 3D and im not talking
about crappy glasses im talking about 3 D T V ?Ok Ok so 3 D T V might be a way off or not, I dont know, but if they can make the cinema screens 3D
instead of wearing those glasses It could mean a massive resurgance in box office sales.is not the release of a 3D picture taking camera ground breaking, did someone think the same when Kodak
released the first digital slr in 1991 with a 1.3 mp sensor?I remember small collector cards were brought out when I was a child (long, long ago), which were 3D photographs and they were great. You didn’t need glasses to view them. The surface was etched in some way and when you viewed them at different angles, the subject appeared to move seperate to the background. I was always surprised that nobody went further with developing the technology at the time. Don’t know how it worked, but I can’t imagine it being too difficult to do. Also HD tv is only a fairly new technology, whereas, you can watch HDTV programmes on normal tv, but you really need a proper HDTV to view them properly and to appreciate the quality. I think the day of the DVD is coming to an end anyway. I was recently looking at a recordable hard drive which records/plays everything directly to the drive from tv etc. No more need for DVD recorders/players etc. It connects directly to the tv (new & old connections) as well, so you could bring your movie collection etc with you if travelling around. Great advances, but where will it all end? :shock:
Seems the Fuji will produce prints just like you remembered miki,
using the same lenticular screen.Their monitor looks interesting, but only viewable by one person at a time-
I think the most interesting way of viewing 3d pictures is the cross eyed technique-
I’ve been meaning to give it a go…
it doesn’t need any special viewing apparatus,
and relies on hanging two nearly identical pictures side by side…Alan, 3d comes and goes-
and no, I doubt whether we’re going to need 3d specs in order to watch the news,
and your new lcd is quite safe. (apart from compression levels, amazing how they can sell digital as an improvement.
It’s just more rubbish down smaller tubes)No, it doesn’t move photography anywhere it hasn’t been already,
the victorians invented stereo pairs…
So perhaps it’s mining the past, rather than preparing for the future-
