Panasonic 3D camera

A little steep for my budget. Could be an interesting rental.

I have to wonder about it being AVCHD and not AVC-I though. Thats a lot of info to crunch onto 24mbps. Unless it is usiuing dual DSP's/compressers and recording each lens to each card. Even so, that is still more info that 720 60P or 1080 60i (HMC150 etc).

It's essentially recording 1080p 120 fps (60P per lens).

I wonder how they sync these new glasses? Or are they already in common use? According to panny, the glasses shutter each eye in sync with the left/right imagery.

Just don't try watching that stuff near fluorescent lighting, it'll drive you nuts!

It sounds pretty clear it will record two separate streams to two cards. Makes sense as it is the only way to stay in the AVCHD spec.
It can record for up to 180 minutes on dual 32GB SD cards in Panasonic's professional AVCHD PH mode
...
Right and left Full HD video streams of the twin-lens 3D camcorder can be recorded as files on SDHC/SD Memory Cards

What is also interesting is that it uses "3MOS" chips. Don't think we've seen one of those in this form factor yet (though I bet 3mos versions of the 150/170 aren't far away). I have to wonder if this is the 1/4" chip from the hmc40, the 1/3" chip from the hpx300 or something else.

So this new camera will do 3d AND jello?!? :D
