Pro-Ana (TM) PROFESSIONAL 3D Glasses for Red/Cyan 3D Movies - Technological Breakthrough

I purchased a 3 pack of Red/Cyan 3D glasses for about the same price as these Pro-Ana's from 3Dstereo and I was fine with them until my wife complained that she wasn't seeing any color and it wasn't worth watching 3D movies, so I took to the multiple Red/Cyan glasses' reviews here on Amazon. Many people preferred these Pro-Ana's so I went ahead and ordered them. Even though I didn't mind the other generic Red/Cyan glasses I had, I am totally happy that I went ahead and tried the Pro-Ana's out. The colors are vibrant and far superior to any other Red/Cyan glasses I've used in the past. I also really like the wrap around style, the others I had were flat like the 80's style Ray Bans, the wrap around is more natural with viewing.I've tested these with Avatar (Live Action/CGI) and Tangled (animation) on my 52" Samsung non-3D TV and it was awesome. In Tangled, the blonde hair actually looked blonde unlike the other glasses I have used, and all the bright and dark colors in Avatar were perfect. I definitely recommend these to anyone who needs Red/Cyan 3D glasses. I suggest not being cheap like I was and putting your money into this quality pair, you won't be disappointed.Last, I didn't want to take a chance and get a knockoff so I ordered these direct from 3Dstereo. I usually try to stick to Prime sellers, but I'm very satisfied with the service I received from 3Dstereo. I ordered these late on Friday and got them on Wednesday.

I tried this item (ProAna) and the ProX glasses for comparison.-ProAna (this item): 3D Glasses Pro Ana (TM) for movies - HIGH END - Anaglyph Glasses for Computers, Movies - Less Ghosting - Ships from the USA-ProX:Pro X Style Red/Cyan 3D Glasses for Movies and Games on Flat Screens---The ProAna (this item) work much better. The frames feel very flimsy, but the lenses are what matter. The lenses have the right colors, so when you look through both lenses, even bright light is eliminated (which means the red and cyan are tinted correctly to prevent ghosting). They definitely work, you get a strong 3d effect, but you still can't see colors well, at least using Nvidia Discover to play games. Sometimes makes me motion sick to play games with it, but that is true of all red/cyan 3d glasses.Overall, I am very satisfied with the purchase.EDIT: After using them a little longer, I can say that although the lens colors are matched perfectly, the color is not correct for most things. Oddly, the blue lens is good, but the red lens has significant ghosting and that makes things strange. I am curious why this happens, since the lenses are absolutely perfectly matched to each other and the blue is good the red should be as well, but there is definitely still ghosting in the red lens.I really don't know why tweaking anaglyph colors is never an option. Nvidia's colors are pretty off, and youtube's red is wrong for these glasses. I think both nvidia and youtube should have a simple flash or java color set-up process to account for variations in 3d glasses. It definitely would not be difficult!Overall, I think you have to trust your luck. But they are very inexpensive, so I can't complain too much

In actual use, these do work as 3d glasses, however there is some ghosting. Some images and videos work much better than others. It seems that some videos are created with an attempt to make the image appear closer than your monitor, and those then to be difficult to see. So if it is horrible for you, try a few different videos before giving up.There are sites with color bar tests you can use to test the glasses for leak by. In these tests, the right 'blue' side does perfect at blacking out the left image 'red'. However, the 'red' lense allows for part of the green to come through into the left eye. Since most all videos are actually red-cyan (not red-blue), the greens are supposed to only come through in the right 'cyan' eye. This leak through of dark-green into the left eye causes ghosting.The bottom line is that it seems the red is not the correct tint.Other than the image, the glasses are rather comfortable and do provide full coverage such that peripheral ambient light does not interfere with viewing.I think these would work well if you had a red-blue 3d image as apposed to a red-cyan image, though this can't produce full color. Also youtube 3d doesn't support red-blue. For multi-color glasses, it does support: Red/Cyan, Green/Magenta, Blue/Yellow.Product Purchased:Pro-Ana (TM) PROFESSIONAL 3D Glasses for Red/Cyan 3D MoviesSold by: Peep PartnersI haven't tried yet, but I think I may next try Trioscopic ("pure green" / "pure magenta"). If it works better, I will still keep these glasses when I don't have the option to use green/magenta. But first I have to find out if the green/magenta is compatible with anything other than youtube...-- Update ---After just a few more uses (used only by an adult, no abnormal use), the glasses frame broke in the plastic over the blue lense just to the side of the nose section. It seems that the plastic used in the frame is very brittle. I was able to super glue it back together, but breaking so easily/quickly looses another star.
