The price to pay is some visual discontinuity....

A little imperfection is nothing compared to what the viewer accepts with colour Anaglyphs.

The problem with the presented techniques does not consist in "small discontinuities" but in observable and disturbing discontinuities if the images are viewed at a reasonable size, and if the resulting 3D images are viewed at large sizes, the discontinuities are very disturbing and the 3D perception is totally compromised.
Good results can be obtained only with a lot of work with very precise local distortions in the junction areas of several images with different depths to ensure a seemingly continuous passage between the different depths.
...Or with advanced techniques for 2D to 3D conversions.

But is fun to try and experiment with 3D images.

Hi, Gunner,

you refer to “discontinuities (that are) very disturbing”  and that “the 3D perception is totally compromised”.  These indictments are quite subjective; can you be more specifically objective? To what specific features of the presented images are you specifically objecting?

Thanks,

Dave
