Re: 3D Photography - Can new tech make it more accessible?

I down-loaded your photo of a Stereo card. It is low resolution 1938 x 974 pixels for the overall side by side image. However with a suitable viewer it shows a reasonable 3d image. I put this image onto a smart phone which has a screen size of 6 inches and a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. I used an inexpensive plastic viewer £5.00 , The Lite Owl made by the London Stereoscopic Company Ltd. https://shop.londonstereo.com/LITE.html      I hold this viewer about 7 inches in front of the smartphone screen. It works very well. I am not convinced that it is necessary to have a smartphone with a 4K resolution to get reasonable results using this method of viewing. I also own a Sony smartphone with 4K resolution.
