Will this camcorder connect to the 3D input of a computer and give you 3D? The USB input only gives me 2D with my Sony HDR TD10 camcorder.

Is your pc capable of watching 3d?? If you recorded a 3d using this one and transferred it to your pc using its usb cable then you can watch it there...y

No, it won't connect to your computer. You will need to purchase a transflash card which plugs into the glasses and an adapter also. After you have taken some picture you take the transflash card out, plug it into the adapter and plug that into your computer. I find it an easy and well thought out way of doing it. The card and adapter will be less than $20.

I've been told it does not work with 3D. I'm presuming the reason Sony is dropping the price now is that a new version is coming out that fixes the gracenote problems (hard to deal with discs that are not on gracenote) AND the next version will be 3D capable. This is strictly a guess, but every other Sony Bluray player is now 3D capable except this one. And since all the 3D movies aren't coming out unitl later this fall... I should just go and put in a 3D movie and see though. Sony's support on this player does seem to be a bit weak.

It did not work with my computer, a Dell XPS 8500. My Sony Digital Camcorder, model DCR-TRV103 NTSC was not recognized.

I can't tell you for sure, I wanted to use it with my JVC camcorder to PC and like many of the other reviews I couldn't get any software to connect with it. I think you have at least an 85% chance of failure. Hope that helps

Yes, the best results will be if you have a compatible Sony camcorder as you will be able to do many copy features via automation. Inputs available - DV (firewire), S-Video, composite video and stereo audio. NO HDMI input. If the camcorder is non-Sony you can still select your inputs from the menu but the camcorder will not automatically drive the DVD Recorder VRDMC5. See ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AY9BHCUnmTQ

It will take an HDMI input or a component input if you want HD. It also has composite input... Please note this model does not have hdmi output so you cannot loop thru hdmi on the camera.

You can either connect the camcorder to a computer using IEEE wire, I think they used to call it fire wire, and is the wire with a smaller connection than USB. Or you can use the other cables with the red, white and yellow ends and connect to a dvd or vhs recorder. All the wires come with the camcorder. The same wires you would use to connect to a tv to watch your tapes on the tv. You can access the owners manual for instruction at I think the Sony Support web site.

Does the 3D work with PS3? From what I have read you can only output 3D with a PC currently and not with PS3. Would be great to have someone verify whether you need the 3D-XL for this model.

it's been a long time since I've used mine....I converted to digital, but as I recall, it worked with my older computer and when I bought a new Toshiba laptop, it was not compatible with the usb input. I tried a few things that Best Buy suggested, but I couldn't get it to work. That's not to say there isn't a way...a converter perhaps. I will say that this was a great video camera. I've got dozens of videos that I will soon pull out and watch. I loved it, but technology advances very quickly.

I have not hooked up any 3-d movies. Before I purchased this unit I did read in a review that 3-D capability is not available through the HDMI connection, only through the lesser quality connections Such as the yellow RCA video connection. As I said, I haven't tried it.

hi, i got a hd66 if you don't have the 3d-xl the films in 3d is working with a bluray 3d player or not, thanks

Yes I have a 3D card. I need to update my review since I figured out what the problem was. It turns out 3D won't work with a dual DVI cable and it had completely slipped my mind that I was using the DVI cable I got with my 3DVision set up.

Yes you can via USB using supplied software. As you can read in my initial review I did have issues establishing communication between PC and camera. Try different USB ports until the PC "sees" the camcorder.

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..

I haven't tested it yet, but will today and I'll let you know. However, I'm fairly sure it will support 3D, since it is pretty standard these days.
