Panasonic affordable 3D camcorder unveiled

Panasonic is planning a more affordable stereoscopic 3D camcorderat a mysterious July 28th Tokyo unveiling. It's called the HDC-SDT750, and is advertised as the "World's first 3D Shooting Camcorder."

New info leaked about the HDC-SDT750:

• 3D recording mode = side-by-side 960x1080 +  960x1080
• Records at 17Mbps MP4 at 24 fps and 30fps
• stereo base = +/- 35 mm, Wide angle lens is 58 mm
• The SDT750 will go on sale in October. UK pricing was not available but it is expected to be priced at $1,399 (£908) in the US.

The surprising revelation is that the product may not be a brand-new camcorder, but rather an existing high-end 3MOS model (the HDC-HS700 ???) with a "3D conversion lens" attached.
