Moving right along!

Does anyone still make the 3D cameras (and required film) that produces this sort of picture? Not the wiggling part--that is really annoying. But just the 3D image. Because seriously...want.

After Monday's baked chicken fiasco, I'm left wondering if these home rotisserie ovens really work. Anyone know?

I had time to eat breakfast and measure my waist afterward this morning. I went from 28.25 inches to 29.5 after eating a half a cup of an avocado/banana/coconut mixture post-workout (I know--[livejournal.com profile] mckitterick didn't like it, either). Not as bad as the three to four inches I'd puff up post-meal before going primal/paleo, but an inch-and-then-some is more than should be happening after such a small meal. I'm going to try it again Saturday with a protein-and-fat-heavy breakfast to see if there's any difference.

A week from today I get my second skinfold test! I'm excited to see how my numbers changed from July. My August test got canceled due to a scheduling conflict on the part of the tester, so it'll have been two months! I should hope to see major changes.

I want some sort of style to my hair. It's long enough to style now, and I'm tired of this all-one-length business. So, a poll!

[Poll #1610533]

To anyone (edit: To anyone except [livejournal.com profile] stuology) who marks the third option: I accept cash, check, or Paypal.

You only need two for the simple stereoscopic 3D shot, which is why you can do it with your own camera. You don't even need two cameras to make a still 3D. The key would be taking both shots at the same angle, just slightly moving the camera horizontally. A tripod, some tape and the knowledge to use manual settings on your camera so that the exposure and white balance are exactly the same will do the trick.

The Fuji makes it easy by having two lenses and two sensors, so the same photo is taken spaced just slightly apart with the same exposure and white balance since both photos are being taken at the exact same time.

The above could be made with a few cameras taking the shot at the same time, but you have to make it into an animated gif to get the 3D effect.

You could probably do an anaglyphic 3D shot with just one shot and Photoshop.

I've seen instructions and a bracket for doing simple 3D shots with two cheapo Kodak zi8 cameras - it can also be used for video.
