I have a Samsung 3D HDTV that shows beautiful 3D w/Blu ray 3D Movies. How do you rate the 3D effect you've taped on a 3D set w/active shutter glasses?

SG 47" with passive glasses - excellent results with strong 3D effect. convergence is around 7-8 foot and the 3D effect is noticeable at a much longer range than I expected. Side by side doesn't produce the sharpest images. Fantastic for the price. http://youtu.be/pEm1l7sJgHQ

The Z100 creates decent looking 3D video, easily and at a very low cost. I wouldn't expect Avatar, but for $150, I think you know that. The Stereoscopic effect is strongest between 3 and 10 feet from the camera, but at longer distances you will see the 3D effect weaken. Beyond about 50 feet, everything just about flattens out. Also, the camera records split screen Left / Right eye by compressing both into half of the HD width, so you lose some resolution. That said...I love my Z100. It's a great entry point into 3D video, but don't expect Hollywood quality video. Search Youtube and you'll find examples of 3D footage shot with this cam. Judge for yourself.

Yes. These are ACTIVE 3D glasses and an internet search of your TV demonstrates that the TV used ACTIVE 3d technology.

I found the 3D depth effect to be good - just as good as any TV I've tried, or seen in the store. I watched an IMAX movie on it, plus saw parts of Avatar (for testing) before I returned the TV. From what I've seen, all 3D televisions are capable of producing equal depth effect... its more the differences in the movies that cause a perceived difference in depth or pop-out. The most impressed I ever was with the 3D pop-out on this Samsung TV was in the store where they were running a demo disc where a bunch of people were throwing food around. If course, you are unlikely to see such pop-out in a movie... at least not much of it, as it would probably become kinda hard to watch after a while.

I actually didn't buy this TV for the 3D, but we really enjoy it. No problem with the passive glasses. We see a lot of movies in 3D at the theatre, and the 3D on this TV definitely rivals it.

Passive. This is the only kind of 3D I can watch. The active shutter glasses would make me nauseous and dizzy.Passive 3D is the best, in my opinion.

Is a great tv for it's price but I'm a huge fan of 3D and the passive format divides the resolution in one half for each eye. For a truly enjoyable experience get a tv with active shutter format. It's the closest to real 3d.

Hi Janet, only with the included anaglyph amber/blue glasses. Those are the glasses where one lense is tinted amber and the other lense is tinted blue. While watching you get the 3d effect, but the color is distorted. You won't need to put your bluray player into 3d mode to get 3d. You don't need 3d discs to get the benefit either. Hope this was helpful.

When watching broadcast tv. You have the option for the tv to digitally alter the standard 2D image to appear as 3D when wearing the glasses. It doesn't always look that impressive. However when you attach a 3D Blu Ray player to the set and use the supplied glasses.. The 3D looks pretty good. TITANIC translated really well. You have the option to view images in 2D,or by pushing a button on the remote control.. Enjoy 3D. Hope this answered your question?.. All 3D tv's have the same options. (Best for 3D is a set with 120hz processor minimum. 240hz is better. But 60hz still works satisfactory)

Not really. You can set the tv to 3d while watching media shot in 2d and it will have a slight effect, but not anything great. It is more cumbersome to wear the glasses than the worth of the "3d" quality. This tv works best for media actually shot in 3d and even if it is 3d specific. I just watched the new Dr. Who ep shot in 3d ( downloaded 3d file -> ps3) which was side by side and was probably the best quality 3d viewing I've gotten out of the tv.

I have only used samsung 3D glasses as recommended. I believe the model was made to use only samsung 3D glasses. Do an Internet and a u tube search to see what others have tried. Or call Samsung or try to contact the seller.

I did correspond with a person at Dimensional Optics and they were great to deal with! We ended up buying the glasses and have used them with success. Now if only we can figure out how to watch actual 3D discs through the Playstation, not just 2D --> 3D. We are happy with them though - definitely as good as the Samsung ones we tried.

It is an active shutter 3D and not passive. Any kind of active shutter glasses from Sharp, Samsung or Sony will work great. Also it has a LED lighting source combined with a LCD panel to create the image.

Yes i think So, because the same Original Samsung glasses worked on my Screen, so i think its ok with any Active 3D glasses.

3D is pretty good I have found some cross talk when you watch it in very tight angles but for most part it is very good and I prefer it over active shutter.

On the Sony XBR55HX950 Select: Home Settings Picture & Display 3D Settings 3D Display Simulated 3D (See 2D in 3D) We've found that the simulated 3D leaves a lot to be desired, but the actual 3D Blu-ray is very nice. Don't forget you need the active 3D glasses to view. Hope this helps.

If from this camcorder, but if your referring to 3D BluRay movie disc's, then you must have a 3D BluRay player...On my new 65" Vizio 3DTV, the 3D effect was larger than in real life :-) If your taking vids, you won't get much a 3D effect at long ranges btw if you don't have something close in the pic..

There are active glasses and passive glasses. This TV has passive glasses (like the movie theater) they don't need batteries like active glasses. TV's require one or the other. The picture is very similar with both types. 1080p is the highest resolution you will get with 3D without paying 5000+. So this TV does have good 3D, I bought it brand new in 2011. The only complaint I have is the pixilation occurs once in a while. I paid 2700 for it brand new, so under a 1000, this TV is a good deal. 3D is the same since it came out, the 4k TV's with 3D are the exception and they are expensive. LED is better than plasma, but more expensive. The viewing angle (how far to the right or left) is good with this TV. There are active glasses and passive glasses.
