Can anyone provide step-by step instructions about how to set up 3D on this projector? What glasses do I need? Any extra equipment?

No. You get what you pay for. Look into the Aser H5360 - this is the best projector for the money and can be used for many purposes. I've used it for presentations, and watched 3D movies at home on it (3D requires Optima 3DXL converter.)

The projector is mainly 2D, it is what they call "3D ready" you will need accessories in order to view 3D. Once you have the accessories, you will be able to watch either, you can switch back and forth. What you'll need for 3D:3D converter box3D sync out RF emitter Glasses.

This projector is 3D capable, but you have to make sure the format is 1080i (not 1080p) and you have to set up the 3D format type to match your content (i.e. side-by-side, or top-bottom, etc.). I don't know what RF (radio frequency?) has to do with 3D question? As far as I know, this projector has no RF capability except perhaps the remote control.

thanks. I ordered the projector. I also ordered a surround sound home theater system that I will hook up to my playstation 3 for audio. I'm excited. It is going to suck hooking all this stuff up though!

you can use standard 3d glasses or 3d glasses with built in Emitters.yes you can use a ps3 with this projector. The projector is very light it probably only weighs about 5 pounds.

Any DLP glasses should work with this projector... I bought these glasses from Amazon along with this projector and they work great. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006DCZTAU/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The input/output configuration is fine and will definitely work. As for 2D/3D, you have to understand that it's an optical trick. A neat one, but a trick nonetheless. And, unless your video projector is a 3D projector (is there even such a thing?) it won't work of course. The conversion only works if on there's a 3D capable display on the output.

you have to have 3d sent to the projector. Some bluray players such as sony may up convert.

Sorry, from the research I did for that projector it looks like it needs a DLP link type of 3d glasses. Incredisonic does sell this type but it is not the same design. Not sure if the weight or picture is the same. Again sorry. You might look for reviews for that particular one. Good luck.

You need 3D TV as well.It plays back 3D BlueRay.You need 3D TV for 3 D movieThx

either direct connection with a VGA cable or connect o PC via USB and connect that to projector as usual with VGA cable. You ge better resolution when going via PC

Couple of questions.1. Is your projector a short throw or long?2. What is your desired screen size?

Theoretically, yes. This projector is a DLP 3D ready projector BUT understand that the only video inputs on this model projector are VGA and the standard definition "yellow" video connection. In order to view a 3D movie on a 3D ready device (PS3, Xbox 3650, PC, etc) you would need to have that device plugged into the projector on the VGA port (standard def won't work for the 3D aspect) and have compatible 3D glasses (the cheapy red/blue ones don't work, nor do the plastic ones used at movie theaters, you'd need a TV quality set). As for myself I've never used the feature since I don't have the glasses. But it is supposedly possible.

I honestly can't remember how I got them to work. I think there is an option in the Optoma menus that state what mode of 3D to use. I happened to find DLP Link was one of the options, but this was after about an hour of messing around with it. To be completely honest I sent these glasses back because of the comfort issue. I ended up going with a model from Quantum. Much more comfortable, and I don't feel like I'm looking under them. Once you get the projector set up properly you won't need to mess with it anymore. 2D movies will play normally and it will automatically go back to DLP Link when it detects a 3D signal. After you get the projector into DLP Link mode, keep in mind there is an 'invert mode' some movies you may need to press the power button once or twice to flip between modes, otherwise the picture looks funny. I can't explain it, but you will probably recognize it when you see it. It's like instead of projecting out towards you it's projecting in away from you. Good luck getting it set up. Again it took me awhile to figure it out, but hopefully you will have better luck.

Blu Ray on 3D are great, I would say on par with the theater; it mostly depends on the movie. The active shutter glasses are a little delicate, so store them accordingly. You are also limited to viewing 3D by the number of glasses you have synced with the projector.
