Acclaimed for superb resolution and definition, Fujinon lenses are the choice of professional cameramen and a key component of many professional imaging devices. For the FinePix REAL 3D W1, Fujifilm has developed a groundbreaking image capture system comprising two Fujinon lenses and two CCDs, and the system is integrated in the compact body with high-precision engineering. An aluminum die-cast frame provides the solid platform for the precision alignment of the left and right lenses so you can take 3D images with an unprecedented quality of reality.

Image data captured by the twin lens-CCD system is processed by the RP (Real Photo) Processor 3D - a newly developed processor that evaluates all photographic factors from focus and brightness to color tonality, and then merges the left and right images in a single 3D image. It is also the power behind 3D Auto - the function that makes point-and-shoot 3D photography a reality! This processor also controls the two capture systems independently to shoot two different images of the same subject simultaneously - each with different photographic settings.

5. 3D image

With the FinePix REAL 3D system, you can review images in 3D on the camera's LCD monitor and also on the large LCD monitor of the 3D digital viewer. Frame your shot in 3D and play it back in 3D on the spot with the camera's monitor. On the large-screen 3D digital viewer, you can enjoy and share the full impact and presence of your 3D photos.

Fujifilm has succeeded in the precision lamination of high-resolution, low-halation prints with lenticular sheets that create the 3D effect. Advanced technology encodes and aligns the captured 3D image according to the pitch of micro lenses arranged in parallel rows on the lenticular sheet. Seen through the sheet, image data is perceived with a parallax effect. The result is a natural and beautiful 3D print that preserves and breathes life into the moment forever.

Step 1
When passing through the lenticular sheet (sheet with cylindrical parallel lenses), interlaced image data are separated into left and right images.

Step 2
The left and right eyes see the respective images.

Step 3
Parallax interprets the disparity between the images as a sense of depth.

3D Shooting

Shooting 3D images with an unprecedented “real feel” is simple and automatic with the built-in 3D Auto function of the FinePix REAL 3D W1 digital camera.

Frame your subject, press the shutter, and the scene is captured in a high-quality 3D image. Not only stills but also movie shooting recorded with sound can be taken effortlessly. Featuring an innovative 3D viewing LCD monitor, you can playback the results in 3D right on the spot.

With Individual Shutter 3D Shooting, you can take two shots of the same subject from different positions, and the camera automatically merges and saves the captured images as a single enhanced 3D photo. After the first image is taken, it appears as a transparent overlay on the monitor to help you align and frame the second shot. Photos of distant subjects like mountains and skyscrapers look amazing in enhanced 3D, while close-up subjects like flowers come to life in natural 3D.

Shoot 3D photos with a more natural sense of depth.

Shoot impressive 3D photos with an enhanced presence.

With a single press of the button, the camera automatically takes successive shots. Perfect for shooting from a car, train or even an airplane to create a photo with an ultra 3D sense of depth. Imagine shooting clouds from the window of your flight and capturing the scene in super 3D. Fujifilm truly brings a whole new dimension to photo enjoyment!

Pursue the extremes of 3D and 2D photo expression with the manual shooting functions of the FinePix REAL 3D W1. Choose “M” (Manual) Mode for the freedom to set shutter speed and aperture. Get instant control of depth of field in “A” (Aperture Priority) Mode. With the built-in “P” (Program) Mode, the camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture value. With manual shooting functions, you can capture what your mind's eye sees in every detail.

Just select the Scene Position (SP) that matches the subject and situation. The camera automatically optimizes every setting from shutter speed, white balance, sensitivity and even turning flash on or off. With a choice of 13 easy-to-select Scene Positions for both 2D and 3D photos, moments are captured with the best possible results every time you press the shutter.
