The HDC-Z10000 camcorder embedded with 2D/3D twin-lens by Panasonic was unveiled. Owing to its 1,152,000-dot, 3.5-inch 3D LCD, users can capture and view video in 3D sans glasses.

The Panasonic HDC-Z10000 claims to have the closest 3D video macro setting with a twin-lens at around 17.8-inches. It comes embedded with a dual-SIM card memory slot and microphones for recording Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround sound, besides two XLR audio inputs with a 48-V phantom power supply for external use. The device is equipped with the company’s double 3MOS System that delivers supposedly brilliant full HD 3D video content, detailing and coloring. It helps in recording separate images for the left and right eyes at the same time. The speedy Crystal Engine Pro II powers the high-speed processing for the creation of apparently high- 2D and 3D images.

Users are enabled to shoot bright images or videos even in dim lighting with reduced noise due to the new F1.5 lenses. These lenses feature Nano Surface Coating, which is a microstructure film with a low refractive index on the lens surface that minimizes the light reflection and results in clearer image rendering. The camcorder’s 32mm wide-angle lens possesses a 10x optical zoom while shooting in 3D or 12x optical zoom for 2D.

The integrated Hybrid and Power O.I.S. aid in controlling handshake and image blurring which may occur when shooting while moving, besides providing horizontal, vertical, yawing, and pitching four-axis correction. Compatible with the AVCHD 3D standard, the camcorder employs MVC or Multiview Video Coding to record and playback 3D images through the Frame Sequential Method.

To be available in black, the pricing and availability details of the Panasonic HDC-Z10000 camcorder will be announced a month before its shipping commences.
