1. Stereoscopy method, comprising:
recording at least one image of a scene from a first viewing angle,
recording at least one image of the scene from a second viewing angle which differs from the first viewing angle, and
obtaining an image of the scene with depth information from the images of the scene recorded from the first viewing angle and the second viewing angle,
wherein the scene is recorded multiple times from the first viewing angle,
wherein a first combination image is obtained from the various images recorded from the first viewing angle, said combination image according to the stipulation of a comparison algorithm having smaller differences in relation to at least one image recorded from the second viewing angle or smaller differences in relation to a second combination image obtained from the images from the second viewing angle than each individual image recorded from the first viewing angle, and
wherein the image of the scene with the depth information is obtained from the first combination image and at least one image from the second viewing angle or the second combination image.
