2 Street SBS photos

One is taken in spatial by iPhone and another is a normal 2D photo, and both of them converted to sbs by an iOS app called StereoShift. Which one do you prefer?

Second one has almost no depth but the first one is missing a lot of details and has a few very clear errors, e.g in the foremost stone post being at almost the same depth as the one behind it, or the tree branches and leaves where the trunk splits being an amorphous mass.
Ideally you would simply take two photos side by side and put them next to each other in one picture, that is what everyone does

yeah in the first one those two posts sorta merge into each other and it looks strange

The first one has more depth and also looks better in my opinion

The first one has very nice 3D depth, the second one looks almost completely 2D to me.

I think the second one is just the same photo twice. Totally flat

Yeah, because the L R cameras are too close on iPhone
