How Sweep Multi-Angle works

During a Sweep Multi-Angle exposure, your Cyber-shot™ takes and stores different images from 15 different angles as you move the camera. The camera’s processor then combines these images to build two files. One file allows you to preview the 3D-like picture on your camera’s screen. Tilting the camera from left to right (and back again) lets you see your image from different angles – as if you were actually moving your viewpoint or walking around your subject.

The other file is a full 3D picture, which you can view by plugging your camera into a compatible 3D TV and putting on a pair of 3D glasses.
