Technique for taking 3D pictures
– Take a picture of a subject that is not moving
– Take a picture in a well-lit place, such as outdoors, etc.

button fully and move the camera
– When you start recording with the subject slightly to the right of the centre, the subject will
be close to the centre in the final picture
