3D Image Acquisition Solutions
Cameras:
Sony has a broad lineup of products for 3D Imaging Acquisition
Solutions including high-performance POV-type cameras that are
more compact and versatile than regular cameras. All of these
products are provided to enhance the flexibility of 3D shooting.
n HDFA-200 HD Optical Fiber Unit
Users can configure a high performance, compact 3D camera rig
using the HDFA-200 combined with the HDC-P1. Signals can be
transmitted from two cameras to a camera control unit (CCU), using
a single optical fiber cable, and also power and genlock signals can
be supplied to the two cameras. With the HDFA-200, right and left
cameras can be controlled from a single remote control panel (the
RCP-1500, RCP-1501, or RCP-1530).
n HDC-P1 Multi-purpose Camera
With its remarkably compact body, the HDC-P1 full-HD CCD POV-style
camera is an excellent solution for a 3D camera rig.
n HDC-1500R Series Cameras with the HKC-T1500
Adaptor
The lightweight HKC-T1500 Adaptor linked with the HDC-1500R
Series camera is ideal for a 3D rig because of its flexibility.
n HZC-3DRCP Camera Operating Software
HZC-3DRCP software installed in the RCP-1500, RCP-1501, or
RCP-1530 Remote Control Panel enables operators to control a two-
camera 3D system without using an HDFA-200. With this software,
operators can control both right and left cameras simultaneously.

Recorders:
The HDCAM SR™ format adopted by the SRW-1/SRPC-1 portable
recorder is ideal for 3D content creation. This recorder provides the
highly effective capture of 3D images from two cameras.
In Dual Stream mode, the images from two cameras can be
recorded simultaneously. And in 3D Field Sequence mode, it’s easy
to monitor 3D images in the field using a compatible 3D monitor.
MPE-200 Stereo Image Processor
The MPE-200 is a versatile multi-image, high-speed processor in
which a broad range of software applications software can be
installed.
n MPES-3D01 Stereo Image Processor Software
This software allows users to analyze 3D images with a built-in
waveform monitoring function, and make fine adjustments to image
appearance through digital signal processing.
n MPES-2D3D1 2D/3D Converter Software
This 2D/3D converter software installed allows the user to convert
2D/3D images into natural 3D in real time using Sony’s unique
sophisticated algorithm. Impressive high performance, together with
versatile and user-friendly operability, makes this solution ideal for
incorporating 2D elements into a 3D production.
n MPES-3DQC1 3D Quality Control Software
With this software, users can evaluate in real time the mathematical
values of finished 3D content. This can help to correct any errors, or
prove that values are - in fact - correct.
3D Monitor:
For 3D video monitoring, Sony offers two types of high-performance
professional LCD monitor: a 42-inch and 24-inch solution.
These professional monitors incorporate a micro-polarizer screen
attached to the LCD panel, and are supplied with passive glasses.
Thanks to these lightweight circular polarizer 3D-system glasses,
users can view excellent flicker-free 3D images. This helps them to
engage in 3D production operations with less stress.
The hallmarks of these monitors are their highly acclaimed
Sony-unique ChromaTRU® color matching technology, and a full-HD
(1920 x 1080) resolution professional LCD panel with an excellent
wide viewing angle - developed without compromise because user
convenience has top priority.
With their dual-stream HD-SDI*1 interface, these two professional
monitors support 1080/59.94i, 1080/50i, 1080/24PsF, and
1080/23.98PsF formats.
*1 Requires dual-stream HD-SDI input adaptor, sold sep.
3D Editing Solutions
In addition to the SRW-1/SRPC-1 portable recorder, the SRW-5800
digital videocassette recorder mentioned, and the SRW-5100 digital
videocassette player, are ideal for 3D content workflow.
Both the SRW-5800 and the SRW-5100 enable highly effective
editing procedures in linear or non-linear editing rooms.
3D Live Solutions
In addition to solutions for 3D cinema production, Sony also delivers
3D content creation solutions for live use such as shooting at
stadium sporting events and concerts.
The acclaimed lineup of production switchers - the MVS-8000G,
MVS-8000X, and the new MVS-7000X - provides a simple 3D live
production system with high operability.
By installing optional software, the MVS-8000G can handle 3D
signals easily without complex link setting. Crosspoint assignment
for right-eye and left-eye signals can be set as a pair of signals.
Also, users can easily adjust the parallax value and disparity value of
these signals.
The MVS-8000X is the high-end model of the MVS-8000 Series of
production switchers with 3D, 3 Gbps, and 1080p real-time
processing capabilities. The MVS-7000X can be upgraded to HDTV,
1080p/59.94/50, 3D, and 3 Gbps production capabilities.
These switchers can stream right-eye and left-eye images in full-HD
1920 x 1080, and output these images to a 3D monitor or 3D
projector.

3D Cinema Projection System Solution
Sony offers an ultra-high-resolution projector system that effectively delivers 3D images to the screen.
The SRX-R320*1 4K SXRD projector combined with the LMT-300 Media Block server achieves full
resolution 1920 x 1080 3D images*2 on screens up to 15 meters (50 feet)*3 in width at 4.5 ft-L
brightness. This solution allows full 2K resolution for the left eye and right eye simultaneously, resulting
in a high-brightness, high-quality stereoscopic cinema presentation that - in particular - offers more
faithful reproduction of motion in 3D.
The LMT-300 Media Block is a digital cinema server that can play back DCI DCP (Digital Cinema
Package) files, and enables the SRX-R320 to project digital cinema programs.
*1 A 3D projection lens unit is required. For detailed information, please contact your nearest Sony office.
*2 To produce 3D images on screen, 3D filters are required (available from 3D system integrators).
For detailed information on 3D filters, please contact your nearest Sony office.
*3 Screens up to 15 meters (50 feet) wide are supported, when 3D images are presented in Side Masking mode.
Screen up to 12 meters (40 feet) wide are supported, when 3D images are presented in Top-bottom Masking mode.
For detailed information on supported screen sizes, please contact your nearest Sony office.
