By Qofe.

I want to take 3D pictures and view them on my computer with a HMD such as Z800 or i-Glasses.
Questions:
1) What 3D digital photo camera can I use?
Can I do it with something like that

(or maybe I can simply buy some 3D adapter for a regular digital camera)
2) What would be the format of my pictures? Would it be TIFF, JPEG, GIF or something completely different?
(sorry for stupid questions)

For a quick start, you can do with a single digital camera and the 'stepping' technique (preferably for static objects, since you have to take two pictures one after the other): put your weight on the left foot, take picture, put weight on right foot, take second picture. By shifting your weight, there should be some distance for good parallax between the two pictures (practice helps).
Next, get stereophotomaker from http://stereo.jpn.org/eng/stphmkr/index.html
This will help you to align the pictuers properly and supports different display options (anaglyph, page-flipped for shutter glasses and interlaced, IIRC). Common format for saving is JPS, with the two images stiched together side-by-side and JPEG compression (so you will have e.g. a 1600x600 JPS of two 800x600 pictures).
