1. It uses two 10MP lenses to capture the real 3D image, not a software generated approach that will surely look like fail. 2. It actually has a 3D screen on back. You can't even see the 3D effect in the Sony model. I did compare Mugen, thanks. In reality, the Sony one probably doesn't even do a great 3D and the effect will look better on the 3DS's crappy low end cameras. EDIT: However, I will give you that as a 2D camera, these Sony models are better. |
Akihabara News' early review of the Fujifilm W1 3D Camera pretty much laid everything out from the get-go with its headline, "The worst camera ever made: the review." It assuredly caused more than a few raised eyebrows, not the least of which from Fujifilm itself. In an interesting and welcoming move, the company invited the publication to a face-to-face meeting -- not for some physical redemption, mind you, but to address all the points of disappointment. There isn't a lot said to alleviate concerns, and the common thread among all replies is pretty much that this is a new field that currently caters to a very small niche, and there's gonna be speed bumps for time to come -- in other words, better luck next time. Still, it's somewhat refreshing to see a major company tackle the subject head-on and in public view -- now if only we could make this an industry-wide trend.
