Memo

  • When 3D recording is performed, still images will be saved in both 3D and 2D formats.
  • 3D still images are saved as MP files (*.mpo).
  • 3D still images can only be printed by the 3D printing service.
    When printing by other than 3D printing service, use the 2D still images (shot simultaneously when 3D still images are shot) for printing.
  • Use the provided software (Everio Media Browser 3D) to transfer 3D still images to a computer for playback.
  • To record 3D images, refer also to “ Precautions on Recording and Playing Back 3D Images ”.
  • If the left and right images of an object close to the camera do not appear to be in alignment, or the 3D effect of a distant object is weak, adjust the parallax.
  • When “PARALLAX ADJUSTMENT” is assigned to the ADJ button, parallax can be adjusted manually using the ADJ button and control dial.
