Companies come up with innovative products every now and then and this is one of them.

Fujifilm has developed a point-and-shoot digital camera which can take 3D photos using dual lenses.

Being priced higher than usual compared to other digital cameras isn’t necessarily a bad thing for this type of camera since it’s something unique, but bear in mind that you need special Fuji prints which have a clear plastic overlay if you want a 3D photo or an exclusively developed 8-inch 3D capable digital picture frame. Both of which are expected to be pricey.

The device can also function as a normal 10 megapixel camera if you choose to forego the 3D effects. Fujifilm plans to put up an online service which will allow you to purchase 3D prints, but no pricing schemes have been mentioned yet.

The picture frame will cost several hundred dollars, too; Fuji isn’t sure yet how much to charge for 3-D prints. “We know that if it’s over 500 yen [$5] per photo, it probably won’t sell,” says Takeshi Higuchi, general manager of Fujifilm’s Electronic Imaging Division.

The Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D is coming to American shores on September 2009 for an estimate retail price of $600.
