Can I view the 3D photos without special glasses?

Yes. The rear LCD shows a glasses-free 3D image, so you can check depth on the spot. For sharing, you need a compatible 3D display or prints.

Does it shoot normal 2D photos too?

Yes. It switches to standard 2D stills and 720p video using one lens, with a 35-105mm equivalent zoom range.

Can I zoom while recording video?

No. Optical zoom is disabled during recording, so set your framing before you start.

What memory card does it take?

It uses SD and SDHC cards and has about 34 MB of internal memory for a few shots.

Is it good in low light?

Not really. The small 1/2.3-inch CCD sensors top out at ISO 1600 and get noisy quickly, so it works best in daylight.

What comes in the box?

Typically the camera, an NP-50 lithium-ion battery, a charger and cables. Check the listing for the exact bundle.

Our take on the Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D W3 Digital Camera

The FinePix Real 3D W3 is a compact camera built around two matched 10MP CCD sensors and two lenses, so it captures stereo pairs in one shot. You can view the 3D result glasses-free on the rear lenticular LCD, or shoot ordinary 2D at 35-105mm equivalent. It is a niche camera for 3D hobbyists and stereo photography fans, not a general-purpose point-and-shoot. Rivals like the Panasonic Lumix 3D1 are smaller and simpler, but the W3 gives more manual control and a true dual-lens optical zoom.
