3D Last Hydrangea of Summer (Stereoscopic DOF HD Video)

Panasonic GH1, a micro four thirds DSL(R) camera is twined for 3D shot. GH1 can shot not only 12Mpixel still photo but HD video (Max. 1920x1080 AVCHD at 1080/24P) as well.
Photos of stereoscopic rigs and sync test results can be found at my Flickr site.

This video is the first shot for 3D video with twin GH1 rig at Kobe Forest Arboretum on Hydrangea, just ending their season.
One of the advantages of GH1 is that many manual focus SLR lens with low F number can be adapted with specific adapters. Therefore Very shallow DOF video can be shot. BTW, another advantage is low light shot performance due to bright lens and relatively large image sensor.I used 135mm stereobase setting with Canon FD lenses, 50mm/F1.4 and 135mm/F2.5 at full open aperture with ND filter to maximize the shallowness of DOF for this shot.

Too shallow DOF? Maybe. This is the extreme test to control DOF and follow focus of the stereoscopic HD video.
DOF and Stereoscopy may be a controversial topics. I look forward to hearing any comments from viewers on this topics.

To view this video in 3D, select viewing style first from 12 option of drop down list box named "3D View Style",
Red/cyan, amber/blue etc. requires 3D glasses.
Some other options, parallel and cross etc. doesn't require any glasses. No viewing style with polarization type glasses like Real D is supported by YouTube 3D so far. 3D view style drop down menu may not appear unless using latest browser and player plug in and refresh cashe of the browser for IE.

This 3d video is one of the best 3d videos I've seen because it emulates real life vision. Just like in real life, the depth of field is small and objects which are not in the depth of field appear doubled.

wow I can clearly feel the depth specially in 1:04 , 2:00

Could you please remind me what is the title of the musical piece in this beautiful video?

Very nice work, i am surprised the the 135mm base worked quite well, I know some people don't like to use Doff for 3D filming but I sometimes like it, keep up the good work.

A masterpiece!

Wish there was a polarized glasses version lol.

表現の幅が魅力的です。

予想以上に綺麗なボケ味ですね。　２台同時のピン送りは難しかったのではないでしょうか。　左右の同期も合っており、すばらしい映像です。
