Panasonic Keeps on Dishing Out the 3D Gear…

Hopefully you all got to see DC’s post for Panasonic’s 3D camcorder, and as if that wasn’t enough 3D for you, the company is also releasing a standalone lens that will allow  still cameras to shoot in the 3D format.

It’s a lens of Micro Four Thirds proportions, built specifically for the LUMIX G line of cameras… the nature of the Micro Four Thirds standard means that this lens may very well work on similar cameras from Olympus as-is.

Even brands like Samsung, with proper adapters, can most likely work with this lens. Impressively, it manages to shoot 3D content even onto a single CMOS chip without reconfiguring the internals of the camera. That’s good news in that, even if you don’t like 3D, at least the industry knows better than to require a whole new camera to have it.

Details on the price or a date have yet to be released, all we know is that it’s coming by the end of the year.
