If you shoot in 3D, can you watch it in 2D? Is there a downside of shooting everything in 3D?

yes, you can watch it in 2 d if your monitor or tv is only in 2d... also thier is a 3d to 2d slide switch on the camera for both filming and viewing in either 3d or 2d.

The downside of shooting everything in 3D is your file sizes will be larger. Watching in 2D is possible. If you have a 3D TV, you can choose to switch to 2D mode. If you are watching on a computer, The AVCHD 2 file format will display in 2D in editing software that does not support 3D. Tip: If you are going to do editing with Sony Movie Studio ensure you get version 13. Version 12 crashed every time I tried to render 3D movies. I've tested version 13 and Sony have now fixed the bug.

No, you can not watch 3D in 2D mode. I did not experience any downside for shooting in 3D, I think sony did a great job for the HDR-TD30V.

Yes - only certain programming is 3D. You can choose whether or not to view those channels.

Dont worry, It will be 2D by default. It will only switch to 3D if it detects a source that is 3D compatable. Personally I love mine. Fantastic buy for the price and a great picture.

I've been trying to play 2 3D movies, but I in both cases I got a message saying that the player cannot display 3D movies. Does anybody have a clue why this is happening??????

Really counts on how much 3D do you want. I have watched several Blue Ray HD disk and there is great depth when running it in 3D mode. Nothing comes out of the screen at you but there is depth on the screen. So to me that is a select kind of 3D. I really enjoy my games on Xbox 360 have come alive some are 3D games some are not, yes I can a difference in the games that say 3D versus regular games but even the regular games have depth now that they didn't and to me, looks really cool. A very inexpensive way to change what you are seeing. It does claim that slow viewing IE: news events thing like that are not all that good and they are right but who wants to see their local weatherman in 3D anyway? I have been impressed but remember this is not movie going 3D it is adding depth to the clip nothing pops out or floats around your room like real 3D does. I have not been disappointed does exactly what Its says it will.

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.

Yes, but if your tv is 3D is better quality on 2D tv 3D image is with red and blue glasses but is okey, I like this device.

"Do I need software to view 3D content? Or am I only able to use the 3D button on the panel?" - The 3d button works very well with everything. no extra anything required.

Not at all. Both 2D and 3D image quality is as good or better than anything else I've seen.

Thanks for the response. Let me know if a 3D movie plays in this player as I am very interested in purchasing this unit.

Absolutely. 3D is always an optional mode, never "on" unless you request it.

Hi Mariana. Yes, I own this tv and it does convert 2d to 3d with the supplied glasses. 4 are included with the tv.

Hi E.J., if you have a 3D movie already as an ISO, you can burn that ISO to Blu-ray disc using ArcSoft TotalMediaExtreme for PC that comes with this bundle. If you're filming 3D movies yourself you'll need to have the right software to create the ISO as ArcSoft can't create 3D movies from 3D source material.Thanks,The DIGISTOR Support Teamwww.digistor.com/support

No, it does not have 2D to 3D conversion. But it does have some pretty amazing 3D imaging for a projector in this price range.

You can use in 2d and show anything unless its formatted for 3d. It shows normal hd channels in great picture do not need glasses unless you choose to upscale to 3d

Good question, however, I have never tried a 3d movie on it. Hopefully, you can find somebody who has.
