    Very impressed by the quality of this little camera. Great review as, as usual. I think there is definitely a place for 16X9 3D for users of VR headsets as it adds so much even if it isn't 180° image. Since the VR viewer doesn't have to jump through any hoops to view the 3D image, so why not use this little guy for everyday vlogging. Being a giveaway winner would be great!

    Great Video as always Hugh. Count me in the excited group. I think a lot of people are missing the point of this camera which is fun little consumer camera to have fun shooting and instantly watching your 3d videos or viewing them in VR later. The stereoscopic effect should be superior to a VR 180 camera as it’s not limited by fisheye lens design as others have said. I hope to purchase this camera at some point as there probably won’t be a VR180 cam as sharp as this for a similar price plus the workflow as you have demonstrated is pretty easy. Again thanks for the work you put in and most importantly for sharing that work as well!

      I have vuze 3d 4k 360 camera from 2016, that also offer stereoscopic 3d. Based on everything i have seen on sample videos on yt and read about qoocam ego. I would say ego is better in everything execpt for one thing and that is vuze is not just 3d but also vr, qoocam is not vr just 3d. If only qoocam would be at least 180 it would make a huge difference. Now it is just a big screen. Im surprise that after so many yrs it has not come any new vr 3d camera after vuze. But i would say the 3d effect in qoocam seem to be better than in vuze.

  • @HenkWalks
    @HenkWalks 2 года назад +7

    I think it is an advantage it is not 180vr. For 180 VR you need a super wide lens, to get the 3D effect there, you have to get very close to the subject wich gives other problems. I am very interested in this camera, hope it has some kind of exposure lock.

    • @hughhou

    Yes the vertical anaglyph misalignment in this video is terrible. Check this review for example for anaglyph samples with the camera without this problem. ruclips.net/video/pbF0PdnH1Yw/видео.html But this other review also notes that the default alignment has the entire scene forward of the screen. I wonder if that is the case with the release camera. Hugh's video seems to have the same issue too. Also this other review says that early versions of the camera had slight missync issues. I wonder if that has been fixed. It is crazy that a 3D camera maker doesnt know about this kind of stuff. But at least the image quality looks very nice -- especially for video compared with the W3.

      Agree--in my tests, I have needed to adjust for vertical disparity as well as re-converge because the video comes out converged at infinity. This isn't how rectilinear 3D needs to be presented for viewing on RUclips 3D and Oculus TV. It needs to behave like a traditional 3D movie. Kandao has the feedback--hopefully there will be an update to address at least the convergence issue, and maybe even a way to recalibrate to deal with the vertical misalignment.

      The approach pointed out in this video is the latest RUclips suggestion. Especially AV1 start rolling out.

But the encoder is a potato encoder - it really hurt the image quality.

    it's actually not bad at all regarding image quality BUT..... unfortunately the vertical alignment of the 2 frames (left & right) is not good, but with a difference of already 3 mm on my 19" labtop screen. now imagine on a 50" TV screen..... unwatchable because our eyes can accommodate horizontally to 3 D images, but NOT if vertically not exactly superposed.
    I do think it is the camera itself which is not correctly matching the 2 half images. In such cases one should definitely use a video postedition program (i use Magix) which allows to correctly align the vertical discrepancy between both half frames.
    Also, another point is the horizontal alignment : it is actually superposing the images on infinity, therefore there is no "window effect" but everything nearer than infinity is popping out of the TV / labtop screen and also therefore your initial "selfie" video is even more unconfortable than if the images would place all objects/people at about 3meters on the screen level. This also can be done in appropriate video editing software. Obviously there will be some image content lost, but the better watchable result is worth it, I think.
    I hope my comment might be useful to some 3D freaks like myself used to watch my 3D videos on roughly 50" screen on my TV 🙂

      @maravilha00 Год назад

      @@AlyssaNguyen exactly, the bigger the TV screen the worse the misalignment becomes... in fact, in their software they should include the possibility to align the image horizontally AND vertically. Horizontal alignment allows to control the infinity points never to become larger than human eyes distance (roughly 6-7 cm). It's a pity because the idea of a small compact 3D video camera is excellent, but those people didn't think about all the risky elements involved.

    It is a awesome concept to have old school 3D brought back for modern VR! My big disappointment for now is it seems this doesn't work with PSVR? That is a large chunk of people that can't enjoy this content in 3D despite having a VR headset. I hope there is an update by the time the PSVR2 ships. Or maybe a way to convert it to be viewable as a 180 video format with limited FOV?
