You can shoot and print or order the production of several types of photos: 3D, LIVE, PARALLAX and SEGUE. When ordering the production of photos, you can also choose from the options “Postcard”, “Magnet" or "Photo in frame". “Magnet” type contains a weak magnet on the back of the manufactured photo and it makes possible to attach the photo to metal surfaces like a kitchen fridge. What are the differences between types? 1) 3D photos create the illusion of a three-dimensional object inside the image, this effect is achieved using the effect of binocular vision, when each eye sees an individual image plan. 2) Animated LIVE photos create the illusion of animation of the movement of the object inside the image, which appears when the photo is tilted horizontally. 3) PARALLAX photos like 3D photos create the illusion of a three-dimensional object or illusion of objects in the photo located at different distances from the viewer 4) SEGUE photos create the transition between 2 regular photos which appears when the photo is tilted horizontally (Top-Bottom transition) or vertically (Left-Right transition) You can export files for printing and print out your own 3d or animated live photos by yourself.
