Yeah, capturing images is not too difficult with a smartphone taking 2 quick successive shots. No point in using dedicated equipment if sharing the images later is impossible. That's my main concern, I guess.

It will often be difficult to get alignment right taking two successive images, and if there are any objects moving in your scene these will look wrong using sequential images. There are probably 3D attachments for phones available for ~$10. I've seen SLR extras for sale at under $30. I suspect using dedicated hardware in this price range to simplify thing considerably.
