Fujifilm FinePix REAL 3D W1


$600.00 Released October, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Good build quality. Dual CCD sensors allow for recording 3D video and images. Possibly the first of a revolutionary step in photography.

The Cons:High price. Lower resolution video (640x480px). Stereo only works in landscape.

The FinePix REAL 3D W1 is the world's first 3D camera, released by Fujifilm alongside a 3D photo viewer in fall 2009. The first-generation, point-and-shoot device achieves a stereoscopic effect without the need for glasses using dual lenses and twin 10MP CCD sensors, creating the appearance of a 3D image by layering two 2D images together.
