It’s world’s and Fujifilm’s first digital camera to capture realistic 3D stills and movies. Imagine the ability to capture 3D images and 3D movies from your digital camera and the ability to view them without the need of any 3D lens or so. If you are imagining , then imagine no more, as the capability is now being brought in this world by Fujifilm.

Anyway if you want physical copies of your prints to show off in front of your bunch of friends, then Fujifilm says it’ll be providing that service, doing the prints in-house and send them your way.
It would be really a heck of a gadget, if the pricing is upto the mark. I Am not sure how much the picture quality will add to 3D experience. But whatever may be, having a 3D pocket sized digital camera is really going to be a great asset for techno geeks 
. The FinePix Real 3D W1 and FinePix Real 3D V1 will be available from September 2009. Pricing will be announced nearer to the date of the launch.
