Last picture in this post is a great example of the 3D that the Contax 35/1.4 can produce: http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/839374/60#9903386

Hi, do you think Planar 50mm 1.7 T*, has a good 3d effect? Any example of this lens? Better Distagon 35mm T*? Thanks.

Despite strong purple (green) fringing it works great.

Many people say the 50/1.7 does have good 3D capabilities. The 35/1.4 is even better at it. Don't know about the 35/2.8.

@Jae: The shots with the 21 have implied perspective, but the 3D impression is a lot less because the HDR treatment has destroyed the midtone contrast. At least, the walls look very flat and blurred because of it.

The Meritar gives good 3D effect. Laughing

Getting the "3D" look has more to do with the composition than the lens. If you go around shooting fast lenses at their largest apertures, you end up frequently with a lot of images that look like objects were pasted into a blurred background.

Kind of like in this photo (just for example, if I may):


If you compose for a more gradual focus fall off, I think the effect is better.

I would say this image provides more of a 3D effect:


You can see the fence come into focus, then go out again. It's when things travel through the depth of field that the effect is most striking. The blur indicates distance better here.

Although I feel like the effect works best actually if you avoid using really wide apertures. For a 50mm lens, probably between f2.8 and f5.6 depending on the point of focus (if the point of focus is farther away a larger aperture may work better though). If you shoot wide open at close distances you start getting that "pasted on" look again.

Not sure if this is "3D" or not, but I love this shot, nice use of HDR.

Zeiss Prakticar 1.4/50mm (DDR Planar)

It must be me. I don't see any 3D at all in any of these pictures in this thread (apart possibly from Klaus's cross-eyed double ones but, try as hard as I can, I just can't overlay the two images). Some have lots of "pop", but I guess it's impossible to create 3D on a 2D plane.

It's mystical concept alright but you sure don't need 3D glasses to experience it Wink.

This is better. Still you don't mention the lens.

Looking at an old thread here and this shot has plenty of pop.

Some photos to explain the kind of shot I'm talking about (both with the 35mm L):
