Did you know?
Over 50% of TV models on the market in 2012 will have 3D capability.
Tests on viewers watching 3D show an increased level of activity in certain parts of the brain, but a drop in heart-rate.

Consumer 3D Camcorders

3D Camcorders vary greatly in sophistication and should be matched to the amount of effort the user wishes to put into adjusting your 3D video capture and how you intend to view it. Simple capture systems may automatically choose depth settings and require a 3D monitor or TV to playback the 3D video. More sophisticated systems contain auto-stereo LCD screens which allow the user to view the content on the camera in 3D, and adjust 3D settings for depth and offer higher resolutions.

Most systems utilize the Side by Side format which makes it compatible with 3D monitors and TVs for full-family enjoyment.

3.50" OLED800x480More Info
As successor to the S80, the S100 is a compact digital camera with an image sensor offering 16.0-million effective pixels and a widescreen 3.5-inch, approximately 820k-dot OLED touch panel monitor with wide viewing angle for high-definition, high-contrast rendering. Various improvements to touch panel operation since the S80 have enabled more stress-free, intuitive operation. Adoption of a backside illumination CMOS image sensor, which offers superior performance when shooting at high sensitivities, suppresses the noise that often occurs with capture of night landscapes and dimly lit indoor scenes. In addition, support for recording of full-HD movies and a new 3D photography scene mode have been adopted to make photography with the camera more fun and the resulting images more beautiful. 3D images are captured by Cha-Cha method which captures first image, then offers guside to move the camera horizontally to capture second image. 3D images must be viewed on external monitor or TV.
