Which pops out the best interlock or digital?

[3DLUVER29]

I have good 3D eyes in spite of my astigmatism.Some people state that the digital don't pop out as much as the old interlock.Well, when I started to see Polaroid 3D beginning in 80's, I saw movies on the top bottom and side by side process and they all popped out.The only problem was that the images were smaller than the screen. Then I was introduced to 65mm Imax 3D and later learned that it was being interlocked projected and the sound was being synced with the new version of Vitaphone, DVD disc. It popped out good too.Then I got to see polarized 3D t.v It also popped out good.Not one popped out more than the other.all the systems were good 3D.

Hi, 3DLUVER29, you may wish to download and read The Theory of Stereoscopic Transmission by Raymond and Nigel Spottiswoode and Foundations of the Stereoscopic Cinema by Lenny Lipton. These are available for free online, just do a Google search. The latter title may be more readable, but both will explain the concepts of positive parallax, zero parallax, and negative parallax, the latter of which gives rise to the illusion of objects penetrating the screen and entering the auditorium.

This illusion is to some degree dependent on screen size and image clarity, but apart from those considerations, "pop-out" will probably be just as evident in any presentation format, whether film-based or digital.

^ What he said. I could see film maybe popping less if it is grainy due to how that may affect the image (especially if it had heavy grain, which is something 3d tends to avoid as much as possible, even when shoot on film). But I haven't come across it making any difference.
