Sony HXR NX3D1 96GB HD 3D Flash Memory Digital Camcorder:
R 35 759.00
The Sony HXR-NX3D1 NXCAM 3D Compact Camcorder is
literally two camcorders in one, facilitating the capture of
high-definition stereoscopic 3D video at full 1920 x 1080 resolution.
The camera borrows several elements from Sony's NXCAM line, such as the
HD native Exmor R CMOS sensor (1/4", with ClearVid pixel array),
the 12x Sony "G" lens (10x in 3D mode) and solid-state
recording of AVCHD in many formats. (For the HXR-NX3D1, the imaging
elements are, of course, doubled.) But as a single-body handheld 3D
camcorder, the professional NX3D1 brings several innovations to the
table for this emerging class of camcorders.
First and foremost is a 3.5" lenticular LCD display, which allows
you to monitor the stereo effect while you're shooting - without the
need for any glasses. The screen offers several other options, as well:
You can view just the left image, just the right image, or a composite
mix of both, "flattened" so you can eyeball the disparity
between the left and right video channels.
That disparity (convergence) is adjustable. Though the interaxial
distance HXR-NX3D1 is fixed at 31mm, you can turn a dial to shift the
active image window (i.e. panning across the group of pixels on the CMOS
sensors that are actually being read out to the internal storage or SD
card/Memory Stick), to dampen or increase the stereo effect of what
you're recording.
In 3D mode, the files that the camera records are MVC, short for
"multi-view coding." For simpler stereoscopic workflows, MVC
files include both the left and the right channel clips as a single
file. Sony Vegas Pro editing software supports the import of this type
of file and further support is planned from other editing solutions. For
wider compatibility with NLEs, the included Content Management Utility
software allows you to de-mux these two channels to independent left and
right channels, converting MVC files to two 2D AVC files.
For any handheld video, image stabilization is crucial. For handheld
stereo 3D, it's even more so - preventing viewer headaches is Job One.
Sony's Optical Steady Shot corrects camera shake in three parameters:
up/down, left/right and rotational.
Features:
| 3.5" LCD Shows 2D or Glasses-Free 3D:
The HXR-NX3D1U's glasses-free 3D LCD lets you preview high-quality
3D images while shooting. Switching between 2D and 3D display is
also possible |
| Frame-Packing or Side-by-Side 3D Output via
HDMI: Output from the HXR-NX3D1U's HDMI jack to a 3D TV is
selectable between Frame Packing with Full HD output of alternate
left and right images and Side-by-Side with output of horizontally
compressed left and right images packed into a single frame |
| Multi-Format Recording: Compatible with a
wide range of formats, the HXR-NX3D1U enables 1920 x 1080
(60i/50i/24p) 3D recording and 1920 x 1080
(60p/60i/50p/50i/25p/24p) 2D recording |
| Internal Memory and Multi Card Slot: The
HXR-NX3D1U has 96 GB of internal memory, enabling extended
recording in 3D mode for approximately 7.5 hours. And there's a
multi-card card slot that lets you record video images on Memory
Stick media and SD/SDHC/SDXC Cards |
| Easy Editing & NLE Compatibility: Sony's
Vegas Pro 10.0d software offers native import support for MVC
video files, so footage can be directly handled as 3D clips to
enable import of left and right channel clips together |
| Converting MVC to Left and Right Channels:
The supplied Content Management Utility 2.1 software also enables
conversion of MVC video files to 2D AVC files with independent
left and right channels. With these capabilities the HXR-NX3D1U is
ready for a wide range of workflows |
| Double Sony G Lens & Double Exmor R
Sensors: Inside the HXR-NX3D1U's compact body are two separate
cameras, each featuring a high-quality Sony G lens and a
high-sensitivity, back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor |
| High-quality: 1920 x 1080 Full HD left and
right images enable the recording of incredibly realistic 3D
movies |
| Optical Steady Shot in 3D: The HXR-NX3D1U
features Optical Steady Shot image stabilization with Active Mode,
with 3-way camera shake stabilizing technology that smoothes out
up/down, left/right and rolling motion when shooting in 3D |
| 10x Optical Zoom in 3D: When shooting in 3D,
the HXR-NX3D1U lets you zoom 34.4-344mm (35mm equivalent). Frame
composition while zooming is also possible, just like in 2D
shooting |
| 3D Shooting with Two Parallel Cameras: The
HXR-NX3D1U features two parallel lenses mounted approximately
1.25" apart (center to center). Disparity adjustment can be
performed to change the read-out areas of the left and right CMOS
sensors so that they are closer together or further apart |
| XLR Adapter with Phantom Power and Shotgun
Mic: The detachable handle has an ergonomic design that is
comfortable and compact. Two balanced XLR audio inputs are built
in with phantom power and attenuation options that professional
shooters require for clean sound quality |
| Direct Copy to External HDD: Important shots
can be backed up by copying footage directly from the HXR-NX3D1U
to an external hard disk drive (sold separately) - without the
need for a computer |
