In theory, you're right. The problem is that your maximal baseline length is the size of the aperture (Ren Ng, the inventor wrote that in some paper), hence 1 cm at most (f=50 mm, f/8 -> 6.25 mm). That won't give much of a depth resolution even with todays 16 or 20 MP sensors. -- Dr. Lars Krueger NEU: FreePhone - kostenlos mobil telefonieren!
