Selecting the Viewing Mode
To cancel the 3D Image mode, change to another Capture mode.
A three-dimensional effect will not be achieved if the subject
moves before the second image is taken. When taking a person,
you are recommended to ask your model to stay as still as
possible and to take the second picture as quickly as you can. It is
easier to take the pictures if you use a tripod or appropriate base.
As a guide, the camera should be moved about 1/40 of the distance
between the camera and the subject. For example, if the subject is
3m away, the distance the camera should be moved will be
3m÷40=7.5cm. However, as the way people see three-dimensional
images differs from person to person, there is no need to be too
concerned. Refer to the table below for a simple guide to how far
to move the camera.
