Digital Cameras and 3D Imaging Technology



First, let us talk about cameras. Because it is based on technology to run a digital camera. For example, I use a Canon SD4000 digital camera. Two small bits of the list of cameras and anxiety, because this technique "should be" other. You, like Adobe Photoshop, photo catalog of the elements, or a similar program, the software must be able to separate the image into color channels. After that, the red lens and blue and red (R2) and a blue lens filter (80A) should have a set of 3D glasses.

Anna-tech 3D graphics, photography secrets now, are you ready? ... Take a picture compatible with always the same as the main way.

Multi-position to 5-8 feet in front of the camera. Ideally, you should be 80-10 feet behind the focal point of the background object. Too far into the background, the background is very close to the 3D case is seen as a combination of confusion between red and blue on the back of the site will have little impact. Use your legs, close or far away from the use of zoom, move the camera.

Real magic trick is how to capture two images. Stand feet slightly less than shoulder width. Put your full weight on his left foot, and take a picture composition. Then, shoot the picture the second shift all your weight on his right foot. Setting goals is to keep this issue at the center of the camera lens. Hint: The goal is not a person is to focus the eyes, if your nose!

This movement of the camera from left to right between the eyes and near the site. What is the difference between right and about 4-6 inches to the left of the camera position. The distance between two positions, in the final composite image is less likely to make the objects appear correctly. It requires experimentation and practice to master this technique.

Then you need to manipulate the computer graphic composite Anna. In this example, to create the final composite, and explains the procedures used to store the product images.

Open the image of a pair of right / left tire shopping. Have been paid if the order is place where you take a photo to the left, to become a proposal for each picture in it is not true. Remains less than one eye view is always numbered.

The same size, shape and create a new blank image and subsequent images. Conversely, adding a layer of solid white color image and the background layer to it. Using the Move tool while holding down the Shift key and click and drag the image to the left of the right image. White image on the left and right: At this point, you have one image file with three layers.

To activate and use the top layer of control to change the opacity of the opaque layer adjacent to the% 50 (left), please click the most. It can be seen in the image on the image left to right. Go to the top left corner of the image situation, please use this tool to achieve the second object in the picture. (Hint: If you are trying to resolve where people between the eyes here).

Remained 100% after the main theme is the return of the opacity of the layer above. Without harming their images overlap only for the length of the 3D effect, given that both edges of the image 揃 Erunai fields of each image. We of the final composite image, you must close this additional information. The middle layer (right) and click on the eyeball icon (left to right) using crop tool and the active layer, a layer of composite, do not delete anything.

When the top layer still active, the tool (L + L CTR) Open. Upper middle class and the drop-down list that is used to identify the green channel, and the dialog box. Now, the box in the right frame area at the foot of the graph is zero, has left the box number is 255. Changes from 255 to zero. Then use the dropdown menu to select the blue channel and the redefinition of values ​​greater than zero. You now have a bright red image. Rate Tool [OK] button, please click

Earth's Best (left) click on the icon layer, the layer (right) Click on the icon of the highlights of the center. Again, the tool (+ L, to reduce risk), but open to this layer, we need to choose a high value to zero and the red channel only. After full adjustment layer, the [OK].

There is only one step left. Code to become active, and click the layer in all three layers (left) Please check that contains the eyeball. The last box in the upper-class menu drop-down menu. Used to identify and select a screen, we are ready! See the following note with elements of blue / red and green should be on the screen. Will wear 3D glasses (use the room before the liquidation of the left eye red and blue filters in front of or right) Please enjoy and the first 3D images.

In inkjet printing, or save an image, such as TIF or JPG, sent to a lab to print the actual image. HDTV is to insert an SD memory card if it supports to save copies of images on the SD card, making 3D on the big screen!

Canon EOS Rebel T2i / 550D Digital SLR Camera



It seems that I was just a short time ago reviewing the 6th model in the wildly-popular Canon "Digital Rebel" DSLR line (the T1i/500D), but now we are already experiencing the 7th - the Canon EOS Rebel T2i / 550D (Kiss X4 in Japan). With the exception of the low-end Canon EOS Rebel XS/1000D, each new Rebel model introduced has been a better camera than any Rebel models before it - and often with some features better than models lines above it. And this again is the case with the Canon EOS Rebel T2i / 550D.

With this new Rebel model iteration, some key features don't change: small size, light weight, low price and excellent image quality - especially in low light. These features are frequently desired by those wishing to step up from point and shoot models and by those looking for top-of-the-line image quality but needing to keep the carry size of their DSLR small - such as for travel.

Along with fast phase-detection autofocus, amazing image quality is one of the big drivers for the popularity of Digital SLR cameras, so let's jump right into this review with a look at the Canon EOS Rebel T2i / 550D's image quality. One of the upgrades in the T2i over its predecessor, the Canon EOS Digital Rebel T1i / 500D, is the new, up from 15.1 MP and Canon EOS 7D-matching, 18 megapixel sensor. While sharing the same photosites, the T2i implementation has 4 readout channels instead of 8 as found in the 7D. The resolution difference from the T1i is not dramatic - I'll look at it in depth below, but first, a comparison chart.


The Canon EOS Rebel T2i / 550D's very slight additional resolution over the Rebel T1i can be seen using the mouseover feature in this Canon EOS Rebel T2i vs. Rebel T1i resolution comparison using an ISO 12233 Chart.

They have identical sensor densities and the T2i shows similar resolution in a Canon EOS Rebel T2i vs. EOS 7D comparison.

Eighteen megapixels of quality image is a very strong T2i feature - I'm sure this will be a helpful marketing feature. And looking good physically always helps with marketing.

Let's review image/high ISO noise next. Following are a pair of 100% crop comparisons between the Canon EOS Rebel T2i / 550D and the Canon EOS Rebel XS / 1000D, Canon EOS Rebel XSi / 450D, Canon EOS Digital Rebel T1i / 500D, Canon EOS 7D, Canon EOS 50D and Canon EOS 5D Mark II.

Comparing apples to apples. Identical camera setup, identical targets, identical lighting, identical framing and identical processing. These manually-exposed samples were shot from a Foba Gamma Studio Camera Stand-mounted Canon EF 70-200mm f/4.0 L IS USM Lens set to 100mm and f/6.3. RAW images were captured with auto white balance, no noise reduction and the "Standard" Picture Style. Sharpness was set to "1" (very low).


I use Canon's Digital Photo Pro (DPP) image processing software (free/included) for my RAW file processing. DPP is easy to use and delivers image quality as high as or higher than anything else available (though more full-featured and easier/faster/nicer to use software is available - such as Adobe Lightroom). And DPP always supports the latest Canon camera models. RAW images were converted to 16 bit TIFF files and Photoshop CS4 "Save for Web" was used to create the 70% quality JPG crops shown below.

Lighting is from a hot 4000 watts of Photoflex Starlite tungsten lights in a pair of daylight-balanced Photoflex SilverDome softboxes.

With those details out of the way, let's review the comparison images. There are many MB of files required to be downloaded to make all of the mouseovers and mouseclicks on this page function properly - please be patient while they load.

Sony Digital Cameras



WORLD photography now truly experience a drastic change. The days fill the roll of plastic that is mixed with chemicals in the back of a camera seems to be over. Boredom waiting for the film processed at the lab was going to end. The era of digital cameras are now covers the everyone, and everyone will try new experiences and take advantage of technological advances achieved in this camera. Indeed, on the other hand we still see that the digital camera is currently storing the similarity with the camera as we know it. Forms box wrapped in plastic or lightweight metal frame still attached to the lens that regulates the sharpness of focus and aperture and shutter that regulates how much light can enter into the camera. The difference is not only a roll of film as we know it.

Experience using digital and conventional cameras did provide some nuance entirely new. At least, the photos taken can be directly seen the results instantly. Results of this immediately is to give another dimension, among others, whoever and wherever a person is able to share photos  result in instantly. Another thing that also examined the process of learning photography becomes increasingly fast and can be listened to by anyone who is interested in without worrying about wasting money because they have to buy several rolls of film.


Choice of digital cameras on the market today are various kinds. Photography services are usually performed by the intermediary of a photo lab, now began to be taken over by the web-site there in the Internet. Digital camera technology that began with low-resolution images, now it is much developed than five years ago and still able to maintain the motto "more beautiful than the original."


However, on the other hand, even up to a level of confusion when choosing which camera gives the best results, because other than that contained in digital camera technology is now getting closer to one another, the price offered was varied. Moreover, various camera accessories, such as additional wide-angle lenses and telephoto lenses, and lighting options using flash light and variable.

Megapixel



At first glance, competition pixels in a digital camera into the arena of competition as well as the competition equivalent processor speed every time the PC is always updated within a certain time to add gigahertz that is already on the market. Therefore, we do not get fooled by the number of megapixels that heralded seller of digital cameras, because it is true that there are cameras that have a greater number of megapixels, but not necessarily be the best this camera.

To remember is that more and more photo-sensitive cells are accommodated in the chip CCD (Charge Coupled Device) which regulates the sensitivity of the lighting, the more electronic disturbances produced. Only the clever maker of electronic circuits and advanced capable of handling this issue. And now it's become a serious problem, because they have not seen who the producer of the best CCD chips today that according to observations indeed be dominated by many companies such as Canon, Nikon, Fuji, Sony, and others.


Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600D Digital SLR Camera



The Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600D delivers 18 megapixels of professional grade image quality in a compact, light weight, feature-filled, easy-to-use body that carries a very affordable price tag. These are the qualities have anchored the flagship Canon Rebel model in the top-selling DSLRs category for years - and I fully expect the Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600D to maintain the Rebel's popularity.

The T3i is the 7th 3-character Canon Digital Rebel model and, including the low-end Canon EOS Rebel XS/1000D, the 8th Rebel model to become available. The 9th, the less-feature-filled Canon EOS Rebel T3 / 1100D, has been announced but is not available as of Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600D review time.

As always, the latest model offers advantages over the previous model. This is a very mature camera line, and the advances we find in the T3i are not going to cause buyer's remorse to many T2i owners. But, the combination of new and existing Rebel features are going to make the T3i the right choice for many new DSLR buyers or those looking to upgrade from an older DSLR model - or from a point and shoot model.

Prior to reading the rest of the Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600D review, I recommend that you read the Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600D Press Release. I'll open that URL in a new window for you - to retain your place here - just close that window when you finish. The press release highlights the new features and some of the T2i carry-over highlights - no sense in me re-writing the PR.

New features include: Feature Guide Instruction, Scene Intelligent Auto Mode, Creative Image Filters and my favorites, the Integrated Speedlite Transmitter and 3" Vari-Angle Clear View LCD as demo'd below.


Along with fast phase-detection autofocus, amazing image quality (especially in low light) is one of the big drivers for the popularity of Digital SLR cameras. And the Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600D does not sacrifice image quality to achieve a very modest price. Sharing the same sensor with the T2i, 60D and the EOS 7D means, in this case, that the T3i matches the image quality of even Canon's current best APS-C format DSLR. Here is a Canon EOS Rebel T3i vs. EOS 7D resolution comparison (use the mouseover on that page to see the similarities). Four EOS DSLRs sharing the same sensor marks a new record.

Following are a pair of 100% crop Canon EOS DSLR image quality comparisons: identical exposure, identical targets, identical lighting, identical framing and identical processing (a key point). These manually-exposed samples were shot from a Foba Gamma Studio Camera Stand-mounted Canon EF 70-200mm f/4.0 L IS USM Lens set to 100mm and f/6.3. RAW images were captured with auto white balance, no noise reduction and the "Standard" Picture Style. Sharpness was set to "1" (very low).

I currently use Canon's Digital Photo Pro (DPP) image processing software (free/included) for my RAW file processing. DPP is easy to use and delivers image quality as high as or higher than anything else available (though more full-featured and easier/faster/nicer to use software is available - such as Adobe Lightroom). And DPP always supports the latest Canon camera models. For the examples below, RAW images were converted to 16 bit TIFF files and Photoshop CS4 "Save for Web" was used to create the 70% quality JPG crops shown below.

Lighting is from a hot 4,000 watts of Photoflex Starlite tungsten lights in a pair of daylight-balanced Photoflex SilverDome softboxes.

With those details out of the way, let's review the comparison images. There are many MB of files required to be downloaded to make all of the mouseovers and mouseclicks on this page function properly - please be patient while they load.

Canon Eos 1Ds Mark III SLR Camera



It is always exciting to hear that your most-used piece of photography kit is being replaced with a new and improved model - as was the case for me with the announcement of the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III. The 1Ds III is Canon's ultra-high-end DSLR, delivering top-of-the-line image quality from a top-of-the-line shooting system matched to a top-of-the-line physical structure.

If you read the Canon EOS 1D Mark III Review (Canon's other current-at-this-time 1-Series DSLR), you are going to think that much of the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III review sounds familiar. And for a good reason. These two redesigned-from-the-ground-up cameras are mostly identical with the exception of a few significant differences - including the sensor size/resolution (and associated parts including the viewfinder) and the max frame rate/buffer depth. Here is how they and the other current Canon DSLRs compare in these and other regards

Each of Canon's 1Ds bodies to date have been introduced with a new sensor having the highest resolution available at that time (the prior-model 1Ds Mark II is still the second highest resolution DSLR). And as usual, the new sensor gets a significant amount of the fanfare in this latest 1Ds iteration. No current DSLR compares to the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III in regards to its ultra high 21.1 megapixel full frame resolution.

Going from the 1Ds II's 16.6 MP to the 1Ds III's 21.1 MP sensor is not a huge resolution jump, but it makes a nice difference - more than I expected. I think the ISO 12233 resolution chart tool shows this difference the best.

Canon BG E2N



If you are shooting a Canon EOS 50D, Canon EOS 40D, 30D or 20D, the Canon BG-E2N Battery Grip is a worth-considering accessory.

I personally shoot in vertical/portrait orientation as much as in horizontal/landscape orientation. Having the vertical grip allows me to shoot from a much more comfortable and much more stable position - and gives me more control over larger lenses. The BG-E2N is invaluable for long sessions of vertical use.

With room for two Canon BP-511/511A/512/514 Lithium-ion battery packs, the Canon BG-E2N Battery Grip gives us twice as many shots without a battery change. It will function fine with one battery as well.

The Canon BG-E2N Battery Grip installs into the 40D/30D/20D's battery compartment. The original battery door is easily removable and the BG-E2N plugs in. The attachment is completed by screwing the BG-E2N into the camera's tripod adaptor threads. The BG-E2N provides its own tripod adapter threads - this functionality is not lost.

The battery grip provides controls and shutter release identical to the camera's grip. The one exception is that the "AF-ON" button from the new-at-the-same-time Canon EOS 40D is missing. The BG-E2N replaces the Canon Battery Grip BG-E2. It basically adds some weather sealing around the battery compartment to the original design.

The only Canon BG-E2N Battery Grip downside I can think of (other than having to purchase it) is the extra size and weight it adds to the camera body. The BG-E2N measures 5.6 x 4.4 x 3.0" (142 x 112 x 76mm). It adds 2" (51mm) to the height of the digital camera when attached. It weighs 10.2 oz (290g) without batteries.

Want some added convenience when traveling? Simlpy remove the grip and put the battery door back on. Need to get through an extra long shoot but do not want to buy the extra Lithium Ion batteries required for it? Insert the included BGM-E2 AA Battery Holder for the Canon BG-E2N Battery Grip and power your 40D/30D/20D with 6 AA batteries.

If you have a 40D, 30D or 20D, this is an accessory worth having.
