Thanks, but use the digitally signed "https" web site instead: »https://fios3d.verizon.com/ I ordered a 6-pack.

Do the glasses work for this NASA picture? Sarychev Peak Volcano in Stereo It needs red on left eye, blue on right eye.

I was hoping that these glasses would be useful for something other than a movie.

said by rockotman :

They are!

You can make your own 3-D images with a digital camera and Photoshop.

The one difference: Since these glasses are green and magenta, in step 4, select the red and blue channels vice the green and blue channels.

Follow the steps carefully. I used a tripod to make sure that the two photos were individually aligned. This was for a different technique that I tried a few years back, as seen in this animated gif...

3D glasses for viewing your Verizon FiOS 3D Movies

I don't think these are the old red/blue ones you are thinking of. I saw this in the theater and it used the clear polarized lenses. Don't think it would be any different.

What they need to offer is glasses that you put on that make this movie better

Ah, to do that you need to find a set of rose-colored glasses.

I threw mine in the trash. However, I examined the glasses carefully before I tossed them, and it doesn't appear as if the technology behind these so-called "3D glasses" has changed at all since the 1950s.

If they're anything like their 1950s-1970s counterparts, the only 3D images these glasses will produce will be the headache-induced spots you'll see before your eyes after wearing these things for an hour. I actually can't believe they're still trying to market "3D" anything at this point. After all, who really needs "3D" in the High Def age?

I saw the U2 3D show at the Bob Bullock Texas History museum in Austin back in 2008, while at an engineering conference. It was awesome. Definitely better than anything I have ever watched in HD.

They used the polarized glasses for the show. The polarization technique yields a much better result.

A pair of them wshowed up in the snailmail box today, un-requested.

I got my (6) 3D Glasses yesterday and we sat down to watch Shark Boy and Lava Girl and I gotta say I was pretty disappointed. My twin 6 year old boys didn't like it either and we ended up stopping the film. So.. this morning I placed an order for a few "Pro-X Professional Anaglyph 3D Glasses" 3D Glasses from Rainbow Symphony. Hopefully these will yield a better viewing experience.

BTW - We were watching in a dark room, 5 feet away on a 47" LCD standard DVD playback from a PS3.

I guess you get what ya pay for -

You do realize that "Shark Boy and Lava Girl" requires red/blue 3d glasses to view. The pairs you received from verizon are magenta/green glasses. They aren't compatible with each other.

Are you sure about that? The order form does not say this.
When dealing with Verizon I would not assume that the absence of a price equates to free. Good possibility they will try to charge your account anyway, unless it is specifically stated as being free.
