The Avatar glasses are very different to the red/cyan anaglyph glasses needed to see this image. Anaglyph images use colour filters to block certain colours from entering each eye. Your brain is fooled into seeing a 3D image by this, and there is inevitable colour and brightness loss.

The glasses you got for Avatar (or any 3D movie experience) uses polarised lenses. The cinema projects polarised light of differing kinds for the left and right images. The glasses filter these out. At the moment, computer displays aren’t capable of this, and if they were, your browser would have to support an image format which allowed for left/right frames to be sent separately.

I’ve been getting a bit geeky about this recently - the whole 3D thing is fascinating, and the new camera a fascinating thing to have (it has its own 3D display on the back too, which does not need eye wear to experience).

For a general collection of my anaglyph images to date, go here:

It’s a bit experimental in places as what you get out of the camera needs adjustment to make viewing through filtered lenses comfortable. I am playing around with this at the moment.

No specific Crossfire images, but lots of Chelmsford and Snow. I hope to bring the 3D camera to any Crossfire meets we have this year!
