Inside the HXR-NX3D1U's compact body there are two separate
cameras each featuring a high quality Sony G lens and a high-
sensitivity, back-illuminated “Exmor R” CMOS sensor. High-quality,
1920x1080 Full HD left and right images enable recording of
incredibly realistic 3D movies.

w/Active Mode and 10x Optical Zoom (34.4-344mm) in 3D
One of the most important considerations during 3D shooting is
obtaining stable images to prevent audience discomfort during
viewing. The HXR-NX3D1U features Optical SteadyShot image
stabilization w/Active Mode with 3-way camera shake stabilizing
technology that smoothes out up/down, left/right and rolling motion
when shooting in 3D. Capturing stable 3D images with minimal shake
is possible even for hand-held shooting.
When shooting in 3D, the HXR-NX3D1U lets you zoom from 34.4mm to
344mm (35mm equivalent). Frame composition while zooming is also
possible just like in 2D shooting.
3D Shooting with Two Parallel Cameras
The HXR-NX3D1U features two parallel lenses mounted 1 1/4” apart.
(the inter-axial distance is 31mm) Disparity adjustment can be
performed to change the read-out areas of the left and right CMOS
sensors so that they are closer together or further apart. This lets you
control perceived 3D depth and the proximity of regions of interest to
a virtual screen. Disparity adjustment is also possible during shooting
using the manual dial. Moving a region of interest closer to the virtual
screen enables shooting of comfortable 3D images with the desired
feeling of depth. When capturing 3D images, the minimum shooting
distance is 31 1/2 in. (at wide-angle setting)
