3D pop, am I doing it right?

To me the Trivial Pursuit picture looks like an obvious composite. If there is any 3D effect it is of the die floating above the flat board. The board piece also looks flat. There is also a contradiction between the lighting of the die and the lighting of the board. I think that helps to keep them disjoint (as apposed to a cohesive 3D image).
 
The claims of 3D Pop due to depth of field control in composition should really be tested with black and white images due to chromostereopsis.

Same result, although i don't think every photo looks as good without color.

If you can't see the difference between one lens and another, all fine and well. The rest of us who do know will keep making pictures that are superior to yours.
So if i post a photo you can tell me what lens it was shot on? Lets make a game of this shall we? Hell anybody is welcome to play. Lets ask any forum member with the high end glass to offer a photo and you tell us which lens it was shot with. Are you game or are you going to chicken out?
There's nothing I hate as much as a stupid forum "test."
Pretty much how i guessed. It's put up or shut up in the grown up's world, i guess you couldn't put up. Shame, all that money you spend on your gear and you can't even back up what you say.
My pics back up what I say just fine. Yours prove what they show: that 3D pop doesn't exist, at least in your pictures. We're in full agreement there. You can't or won't afford better gear, so, like a number of participants in this forum, you're determined to drag everyone down to your level of sub mediocrity. Whatever floats your boat, but talk about a huge waste of time which would be much better spent out in the field. Sheesh!

And now this:

There is also a contradiction between the lighting of the die and the lighting of the board. I think that helps to keep them disjoint (as apposed to a cohesive 3D image).

Nicely done.

I've noticed, though, that both your dog shot and this are about f/4, which seems like a middle of the field aperture, not too little, not too much.

Yes for two reasons. First off, i think the sharper you can get the subject the more you can get it to stand out, even if it's at the cost of some BG blur. Also, deeper DOF is sometimes needed to get the sharpness to reach the edges, which are sometimes further away than where we focus (usually at the front of an object).

It all depends on the depth of the subject, how much space is in the BG, and camera to subject distance. Also sharpness of the lens matters as some may need to be stopped down less to get super sharp.

It's not a composite. It's a single shot.

It uses live composite, but that's only so I could light it with an iPad, rather than needing to get out the lights.
 
Pretty much how i guessed. It's put up or shut up in the grown up's world, i guess you couldn't put up. Shame, all that money you spend on your gear and you can't even back up what you say.
My pics back up what I say just fine.
Your pics, two of them which were shown in this thread, are the same as mine; using defocus blur to show depth.
Yours prove what they show: that 3D pop doesn't exist, at least in your pictures.
Maybe you are just not capable of seeing it? But then you never thought of that bc you have a huge ego and can't imagine there's anything you don't already know huh?
And now this:

I think that makes sense. For me at least, im used to light being camera to subject, aka front lit subjects. So the closer the item is to the camera, the brighter it will be via light falloff. I think this is natural, relating to the link the other guy showed about red vs blur and how color affects our perception (the red was brighter than the blue).

So the brighter die and the sharper die all lend to the perception of it being closer. Contrary to what Reiley Doofenbach has been saying, i don't see how that has anything to do with the lens and magical pixie dust.

I should put you on ignore for being thick as two planks, but mainly for attaching that ridiculous sig, Do you even care how offensive that is?
You have no idea how many comments i get on my sig, nor how happy i am when i do. I get a lot of therapeutic
idiotic
laughter reading these.
A troll's delight for sure. I think we're done here.

Yes a few months back, in honor of SJW and PC culture, i decided i identify as a middle aged arab man. Before that i was a 20 something gay white male. The beauty is they don't dare call me out on it bc that would be judgmental and they have no right to tell me how i feel. :-D

That avatar is my identity, how dare you judge me. Im calling the PC police !!!
 
And how many other banned accounts before those?
