They don't look bad (actually, it's better than the Q-DOS does), but the shape of the left/right bokeh needs to be the same for the effect to be really nice. For example, this is a particularly good example of what's wrong with just covering opposite halves of the aperture with different color filters. Here's a crop of one OOF PSF from that image:

Basically, in stereo viewing the bokeh shape ends up overlaid half circles, which looks very unnatural.

Maybe one can add an opaque mask with max-diameter circle inside each halve? E.g. glue to the rear-side the filters and the mask?

At 135mm Q-DOS mode on A7RII

Notice that the anaglyph effect is quite good (very little vignetting), but there's nothing sharp in the Q-DOS mode.

Q-DOS lens is 70-210mm. With such long focal lenses vignetting gradually went away in my experiments too. Though your advice on vignetting mask was always beneficial.
