Panasonic announced the launch of the world’s first consumer 3D HD camcorder, the Panasonic HDC-SDT750. This camera includes a 3D conversion lens that enables the camcorder to shoot 3D video content. In addition to shooting 3D, the SDT750 can record full 1080p High Definition. The camcorder features a powerful 3MOS Leica Dicomar lens and a 12x optical zoom. The Panasonic HDC-SDT750 will be available in October 2010 with a suggested retail price of $1,399.95.

To shoot 3D video with the Panasonic HDC-SDT750 camcorder, the user needs to attach the 3D conversion lens that comes included, to record dynamic images. The specially-designed 3D conversion lens records right-eye and left-eye images simultaneously through its two lenses, thus resulting in video that can be viewed in 3D. The right and left images (each with 960 x 1080 pixels) that enter through the lenses are recorded using the side-by-side method.
