Kids will love shooting their own 3D pictures!

DXG says: Capture and Share Pictures in 3D! In 3 Simple Steps! Shoot it! Print it! View it!

This is something kids will really love; their own 3D digital camera. The DXG-018 is a simple-to-use dual-lens camera that takes full-color side-by-side still pictures. The settings are very basic: Auto / Sunny / Cloudy / Tungsten / or Fluorescent. You compose your photos via the 1.44” LCD screen on the back of the camera. You shoot photos on an SD card, which is not included. It can handle SD cards up to SDHC 16GB. When you take a photo you’ll hear the shutter go off and a split second later, the second shutter click. After you take your photos you print them out on any printer using 4 X 6” photo paper. You fold the picture edges along the dotted line and they’re ready to view.  When you see them in the included viewers, they really in 3D! I was quite impressed, considering the price. The camera features a 1.44" LCD screen to frame your subject. It’s powered by two AAA batteries. The camera has auto shut-off after two minutes to save battery power. The kit includes the DXG-018 3D Camera, three 3D Viewers, 2 AAA batteries, a USB cable and the instruction manual. It’s available in various colors. MSRP Price is $69.95, but if you do a web search you can find it online for about $50.
