Holography is most expected as a technology of the coming age for recording and repuroducing three dimensional (3-D) image. It has, however, a defect of needing coherent light. We, therefore, have developed a system which has advantages equal to those holography has, based on the principle of pinhole type integral photography. This system does not require coherent light and can make 3-D image zoom in, zoom out and move freely. Without any special glasses, 3-D image can be watched from anypoint with sensation in depth and focus of eyes can be controlled to any desired point. We manufactured a small working model to verify the principle and obtained a successful experimental result. This system has wide applications in science, education, art appreciation and amusement, etc..
