while i am new to trying this experiment in digital art i'm in no way new to the workings I do own a stereo tripod for my two nikons. in photography we adjust the distance according to the lenses but standard 18-55mm the cameras are spaced 2-4 inches apart.

saithan, I know your pictures were aligned through the camera in Poser. There's a difference if you align your pictures while rendering or if you align them in postwork. With the first method the camera is "circling" your focal point which is more unnatural than just moving the camera to the right without keeping your camera pointed at your subject, because or eyes don't circle things in the real life. The latter method also allows later on to design the 3D effect the way you want. So I hope you don't mind me taking your picture as an example what you'd need to do if you didn't align them while rendering :-)

I understood that and hence if you use the dolly control instead of obit, your camera only moves in straignt lines.

if you are not seeing the effect it it possible that your glasses are oposite color sets which I mentioned. try turning your glasses upside down. I used the glasses that came with coraline 3d which are green ion the left and cayan on the right. for the images cherryman posted I do have to turn mine the oposite to get the effects.

i do not mind you using my image as example this is a forum and we discuss things here it is cool this makes us all get better learning from eachother. use guys here are using glasses which are more inline with the "standard".  I recognized this issue with Thelby me and him/her are using the same glasses. 

everything you said is dead on to what I learned in the experiment. especially the focal (key thing).

oo, i want to add to your excellent post. that objects in front of the focal will appear to pop out of the image (if not extreamly in the foreground)
