Mickey's Philharmagic (in 3d?!)

I used my 50mm at f1.4 and shot Philharmagic. I put my 3d glasses over the lens which worked good, except for poking my eye out several times :P
The camera did a lot of focus hunting, but did pretty good.
The entire gallery is online HERE

Nice photos Craig! I really like the shot of Donald with all of the instruments from the gallery.

I heard somewhere that you can use a polarizing filter to correct the 3D image. Has anyone tried that?

Cool! Did you take these by putting the 3-D glasses in front of your lens? *sheepishly admits to trying it with the angel glasses at Osborne lights...guess what doesnt work* Now next time put down the camera and enjoy the movie! (hopes that doesnt get me kicked off the boards! :-\ )

Yes. But not for that show.

yup. it works fine, hard to focus, but works fine.

yep, I held one lens of the glasses over the camera lens. I've seen philharmagic many times so I didn't miss to much :D. The nice thing, is you could see the movie a few times and keep trying to get more keepers!

Thanks all, glad you liked them!

Since the movie is being projected on a flat screen, couldn't you just manually focus on the screen? Once you got it dialed in, everything would come out sharp. Or does the way its projected mess that up?

The 3D effect does seem to work by changing the apparent subject to sensor plane distances. I noticed that too.

focus was a bad choice of words. dialing the polarizer in would have been more accurate but you would still need to focus. and shoot with the right speed. and not get caught in between frames. etc.

I'll have to try the polarizing filter next time I'm there... Do you have to constantly change the polarizer, or does that stay the same once you get it set?

I found that you needed to adjust it based on the perceived distance of the 3-D effect.

I guess that makes sense since its a 3-D effect, but you'd think that you wouldn't have to do that since its projecting on a flat screen.

Anyway, I definitely want to try that next time.
