But don't take my word for it - click here to download a sample stereo panorama, and check out the 3D on the lanterns hanging above my rig. The 3D effect should be stronger and more comfortable across the whole zenith than with standard 2-camera zenith rigs.

For a look at how exactly I'm stitching and blending together these three zenith cameras, please check out my upcoming tutorial on stitching the 18-camera rig.

These days, I'm working on a newer version of my rig that should more completely address this issue - but in the meantime, if nothing else, please don't spend thousands of dollars on a 3D 360 rig built on an ineffective marketing gimmick.
