Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D W3 Digital Camera with 3.5-Inch LCD (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

• I wrote this following review on my Tech Reviews and Help site. To view the review on the site and see some pictures this camera too, go to the following link [...]The Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D W3 camera has been out for a little while, but it still is one of the best cameras out there on a budget. But, there is a few pros and cons to this product like all other products out there.(NOTE) We bought everything in this review, and the following was used on this camera while we were reviewing it. One (1) 32 GB class 10 SD card. (We found you must have a class 10 for this camera) One (1) new 3D W3 camera One (1) Np-50 Digital Camera Replacement Lithium-ion Battery (The battery life is short and it\'s best to always have a backup if your taking pictures away from home. One (1) High-Speed A to C Type Mini HDMI (Used to connect the camera to a 3D TV) One (1) Neoprene Cover Carrying Case. (The camera doesn\'t come with one) One (1) screen protector. (The camera isn\'t cheap so this is a must) One (1) Tripod One (1) Stereo Photo Maker (Free software)Note: To use this camera you should get a class 10 SD card. We picked a 32 GB because the price hikes up by a bit when you get anything bigger than a 32 GB class 10. Also, we highly advice you to buy another battery. It is best to have an extra set of batteries for your cameras when your away from home.The best software we found for free for 3D pictures is Stereo Photo Maker.You can get an underwater case for this camera, but the cost for a case maybe to high for many people. We did not get an underwater case because it was out of our budget.The reason why a TRH staff member has this camera:I bought this camera for personal use. I wanted to take as real pictures as possible of my family and other things while being on a budget.(Believe it or not, 3D photos of love ones means a lot more to most people than 2D images. Plus it gives a true understanding of what something/someone looks like when you can see it in 3D but you can\'t see it/them in real life.)Plus giving 3D pictures that you can hang on the wall as a gift kinda one up everyone else who is giving gifts.Out of the box:The camera comes with the following. One (1) camera 4 manuals (some in different language) A CD with some useless software. (The software is useless. You can get free software that is listed above that will do a great job) One (1) special USB cable for the camera. One (1) battery for the camera. (NP-50) One (1) Battery charger. One (1) strapNote: It is best to charge the battery before you put it in the camera. The charge takes a long time.Setup:The setup is simple. There is a spot on the bottom of the camera where the battery and the SD card goes. Just put in the battery and SD in. Then when you turn the camera on, you have to do the following. Choose a language Set the date and time Choose a power management optionNote: If the battery is charge and it is left in the camera for about four (4) days, the battery can be removed for about a week without resetting the selection above. Keep in mind all pictures and video will be saved on your SD card. The SD card will not be effected by the battery being in or out.After this setup, you can start using this cameraFeatures:The features behind this camera include the following. 3D/2D picture and video (3D can be play on 2D on the camera if you want) 3D/2D viewing screen on the camera. Auto and manual controls You can take 2 different pictures at the same time. Take a high and low resolution. A zoom in and far out picture. A black & white and regular color picture. (2D only) Advance 3D settings. In auto it is prefer your subject and all the foreground is at least 4 feet away. In 3D advance mode, you can take landscape photos or really close up pictures in 3D. Program settings. Self timer. (2 and 10 seconds) Parallax control. The on/off switch is the lens cover. When you push down the cover it turns on. HDMI (Must have a mini HDMI) A/V connector 10 MP Two (2) 3x optical zoom lenses for a 35-105mm equivalent zoom range. Some slight digital zoom in 2D when optical zoom is max out. Eliminate red-eye. Face detection. Click on the picture to see it in full size. The picture was taken by this camera. Obviously it is in 2D.Pros:In using this camera I found many pros with this camera. Pros like the following. The camera is in 3D. The camera takes 2D images while it takes 3D. The 2D images have more noise, but it\'s better than asking someone to sit there for a little longer or losing a moment. The camera takes 2D video while it takes 3D video. The video is not that bad, but it reminds me of a high end smartphone video. The 3x optical zoom is not like some cameras. Some camera that says 3x optical zoom only zoom in 3 times. You can not get between the zooms. On this camera you can. There is a little digital zoom on the 2D mode. I was trying to take a picture of a wild life far away from me, and zooming out all the way with both optical and digital I was able to get the picture. The front of the camera tells you if someone is taking a 3D picture of you. The front of the camera tells you when the camera is about to take a picture when it is in timer mode. The 3D icon will flash. The camera shows video and pictures in 3D on the screen. The camera is not heavy. The camera can convert 3D into 2D. The camera is loaded with features. I will admit it. I don\'t know too much about how to set up a camera to get the best shot. But being able to take pictures at different ISO levels with the 2 different lenses, I was able to figure out how to exactly set it up to get the best picture.Cons:Like all products there is bad things. Below is the list of bad things. You can not charge the battery via USB. You have to take it out. The camera is hard to hold when your taking 3D shots. The 3D screen has an extremely small viewing angle. The battery has a short lifespan. The software that comes with the camera is useless. The cost of the camera is kinda high. We were able to get it for $230 due to Amazon Prime. But, at full price it is close to $600. Our budget for this camera was $300 so we were lucky. (Every day that has went by after we bought it, the price has went up a little on Amazon Prime.) The 3D function in the camera is kinda useless to the majority of people out there. The only way most people can video 3D content is by using the camera or ordering 3D pictures to put on their wall. The 3D prints are about $30 a print. FujiFilm is the worst place to get prints. We found [...] and [...] to be the best. Snap3D is currently replacing their 3D stuff so you will have to use Start 3D for now. The screen has to be constantly clean. It\'s almost a must when it comes to a protector. You can not delete groups of pictures and videos on the camera. The manuals are horrible at telling you how to work the camera if you\'re a noob with cameras.Overall:Like I said, I got this camera so I can take pictures with my family as life-like as possible on a budget. Because a requirement behind that is to take pictures in 3D, I would recommend this camera. After doing a month of research, I found this camera is the best 3D camera out there on a budget. But if you\'re not on a budget, there is several thousand dollar cameras that are much better than this one.But if you need a regular 2D camera, I would advice you to pick up something else.
• For the price of 170/160 bucks you can get on amazon for this camera you really cant beat it. However a few things should be taken into consideration. Do not rely on this camera as your only camera for 2d pictures and (more so) 2d videos. The quality of this camera in that area is siginficantly worse to other simulary priced 2d cameras for example the Canon Powershot HS 110 (my fav camera so far.. id HIGHLy recommend it for 2d pics and videos) is significantly better in both photos and video in 2d compared to this camera. Better color, sharper, much wider angele, much higher quality (expecially in videos) much better contrast and ability to do much better in lower light.That said.. this is a great camera for 3d. Mostly for photos though. I have to say the video quality indoors and in so so indoor lighting is honestly pretty terrible. It states that it does 720p video. but honestly i woudnt even classify the video as HD its grainy and you can tell in average/low light the detail is terrible worse then many cell phone videos today. If you have a tripod and take video mostly ourdoors i think the camera would do fine for 3d videos but do not rely on it to take 3d videos of your childs birthday party in a low/average lighting condition indoors. That honestly tempts me to give this camera only 3 stars. BUT the 3d in the photos really is so amazing to me that it warrients it being 4 stars also considering the price. My suggestion to you is if you want a camera that does great 2d pictures and video too. get the Canon Powershot 110 HS, you cant go wrong with both.The other major gripe however for me is the very small lens angle, i guess ive been spoiled by the great wide angle on the Canon powershot 110 HS that really lets you fit near everything you want in the frame (awesome for hd video and widescreen pics). This camera however you really need to back up quite a bit if your trying to get a large scene. My guess is as my grandmother said, since you have two lenses instead of one that may be the reason (that and to save money on making the camera by not having to have Two wide angle lenses)but if you can overlook the shortcomings. You will have a pretty awesome camera for 3d. and the screen on the back of the camera (while a bit low res some pics end up looking a tad grainy/blown out. on the screen when it is not that bad actually. The 3d on the screen is easy to see. and it seems to have a slightly better viewing angle then the 3ds\'s 3d screen which is helpful and can produce less eye strain.(honestly for the price if you dont have a 3d tv at all i would say its worth it to get the camera anyways as you can show people the screen on the back in viewing photos and most have no problem seeing it) whats also nice is that theres a slider to position the convergence of the pictures after you shoot it so you can make the images seem more 3d in the background or \"pop out\" I find however it helps in many cases to adjust it to seem more depth instead of the popping out type...as the camera tends to do that a bit much. However if you learn how to properly set up the shot and how far away or close you need to be. you\'ll get the hang of it.the nice thing also is that if you do not have a 3d tv. you can use free software (the software on the disk really is a bit hard to use i coudnt figue it out) but search the web. that can convert the pictures into red + blue anagylph images and then use cheap 3d anayglph glasses you can buy online to view them..even in that mode the 3d depth really is awesome. and the picture quality (providing your in enough light and you didnt shake the camera too much and all before the shot was taken) is good enough to give a good 3d experence (for some reason the picture quality seems to be a lot better in photos then it is in videos)anyways i think this is a great entry level 3d camera. If you have a nice big 3d tv however you may wish to spend the money on a higher quality 3d dedicated camcorder for videos however. But for 3d photos its a great buyits amazing how 3d can really make photos stand out....but a good tip is really focus on perspective. perspectve oriented shots in 2d give the illusion of depth, but in 3d actually provides it. to pratice, long hallways and such is a good start!in many cases if you line up the picture and all right you can get an awesome 3d view! but it takes some pratice and there are various modes on the camera that can help too.so that is a good thing to consider. this camera while it is point and shoot, takes a little more thought into taking the picture and sometimes some adjustment for 3d. as sometimes you make take a few pictures that does not seem that 3d (you may notice that in some of the videos/pictures posted online of this camera) thats just because that shot was not really set up so well to give depth. But trust me this camera is fully capible of that!in the right situations it can almost really feel like your looking down a hallway or that your pearing into something in the distance. If your a very creative person i think its great for people like that. 3d depth gives you a whole new level to work with that is just not possible with normal 2d photography.bottom line: you can actually capture depth.I am happy i bought this camera, wanted to a year ago but the price was higher and actually the reason i bought it now was i am getting the Oculus Rift a virtual reality headset that someone made a program for to view 3d pictures and videos with in full color (please note may not be entirely recommended to preoder the Oculus rift right now they are back ordered and its the developer version which hss a low res screen .. a consumer version is planning to come out next year so its more adviced to wait. But for the price you really cant go wrong with this camera either way.For 3d however if you plan to take a LOT of 2d pictures (which there is a mode to switch between the two. but you really do not need to....on default settings the camera saves a 2d .jpeg images every time it takes a 3d picture ..which can be turned off if you wish) but what i mean is.. do not plan to buy it it to replace a 2d camera (unless your 2d camera is just really really really bad) but this is a great camera for 3d photos and some 3d video :-)no regrets!
