Review Panasonic HDC-SDT750 3D camcorder

The Panasonic HDC-SDT750 is the first serious 3D camcorder for consumers, and it performs its job commendably. Simply attach the 3D Conversion Lens to the SDT750 for quick and easy 3D shooting. True-to-life 3D images like those created by Panasonic 3D recording technologies for use in Hollywood movies can now be easily recorded and viewed at home.



Panasonic HDC-SDT750 key features highlight:

1. 3D features

The key is a separate 3D conversion lens that threads (rather awkwardly) onto the camcorder. The 3D images recorded with the SDT750 can be easily played back by connecting the SDT750 to a 3D compatible TV, such as a VIERA 3DTV

2. 5.1-Channel Surround Sound System

The SDT750 is equipped with five electrets condenser microphones. The center mic helps capture the sound source and distance accurately, so you get a more 3-dimensional effect than you get with conventional systems, which capture all of the sound from the front. This lets you enjoy dynamic sound together with the lifelike 3D images.

3. Advanced 3MOS System

The high-sensitivity 3MOS System has 7.59 million effective motion image pixels (2.53 megapixels x 3). This advanced image sensor separates the light received through the lens into the three primary colors — red, green and blue — and processes each color independently.

4. 1080/60p Recording (Full-HD 1920 x 1080, 60 Progressive Recording

The HD Panasonic SDT750 uses the progressive method to record twice as much image data as the interlace method. Plus, the 60 Progressive Recording of the SDT750 produces 60 images per second.

5. Touch Screen Operation

The SDT750 features a touch screen that allows icons displayed on the LCD to be easily operated by touching them with a fingertip. The touch screen lets users operate a variety of functions intuitively without taking their eyes off of the subject on the LCD.

6. 18x Intelligent Zoom

The HDC-SDT750 features a 12x optical zoom and an Intelligent Zoom function that goes all the way up to 18x.

7. Wind Noise Canceller

The technology of the previous Wind Cut function has evolved to form the Wind Noise Canceller. The new function automatically detects and suppresses only wind noise, to give you natural sounds with lifelike ambience.

8. 35mm Wide-Angle Lens

The 35mm wide-angle lens on the HDC-SDT750 fits more people and more of the background into the frame than a conventional 44.9mm lens. This is especially handy when you want to take a group photo in a small room.

Reviews:

The good:

It has many features usually found on Professional models but when you connect the supplied 3-D attachment the buck stops here, or should I say the value. When shooting 3-D you do not have HD-1080P. In fact, shooting in 3:2 instead of 16:9 which means the High Definition quality is gone and you have a black border surrounding the screen. 3D film-making is no longer the preserve ofHollywood, an excellent 2D Full HD cam to boot

The bad：

As for the Panasonic， it does not shoot still photos at all in any format with the 3-D attachment. The 3D conversion lens is bulky, no zoom or auto-functions in 3D mode, high price premium for stereoscopy.

Quick verdict:

Whether viewed as the harbinger of a new era of creative 3D, or merely a gimmicky one-off, the Panasonic HDC-SDT750 gets two thumbs up. The ability to shoot in 3D may come with a hefty price premium (at the moment) and suffers technical limitations but the results are undeniably compelling. Its side-by-side 3D images have tangible depth, making stereoscopic home movies a lot more fun to watch than the likes of Yogi Bear 3D. As a Full HD 2D cam it’s also a peach.

Conclusion:

The dual images are recorded side-by-side into a single frame of AVCHD. This is one of the standard formats for 3D, and the main one currently supported by 3D-capable HDTVs.
