[3D Photo Mode] - Leica V-LUX 4 Instructions Manual

[3D Photo Mode]

With this mode, pictures are recorded continuously while moving the camera horizontally, and
two pictures selected automatically are combined to make a single 3D picture.
To view 3D pictures, a television that supports 3D is required. (This camera will play back in 2D)
Refer to P171 for details about the playback method.
Technique for 3D Photo Mode
∫
Start the recording and then move the camera horizontally
straight from left to right.

button halfway, then press it fully and move the camera.
