Notes & Features: | Features two lenses and two image sensors, for native 3D recording. Can save 3D still images as MPO (Multi Picture Object, JPEG compressed), and 3D movies (3D-AVI, with two image channels in one video clip). Rear-panel LCD uses Light Direction Control technology to allow 3D image review without the need for special glasses, etc. Certain functions are not available in 3D mode, including macro focusing, and digital zoom. Zoom control is not available during movie recording. Microphone is stereo. |
