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......

In which of my initial samples do you pecieve disturbing discontinuities? It is good to know which image is not an acceptible 3D to your eyes but constitues such disturbance to your brain as to prevent the conventional 3D illusion.

Then I can decide whether your comments are constructive or can be ignored (no offence intended). I find with landscapes that the very limited foreground depth provided by, say 65mm lens separation of the human eyes, plays no part in such views while Cha-Chas on a much longer baseline render the foreground unintelligible. Now the latter foreground is when I find 3D images very disturbing and 3D perception is totally compromised, the eyes/brain being quite unable to reconcile the two halves.
