Sony Single-Lens 3-D at 240-fps


Sony is reportedly going to unveil a 240-frame-per-second, single-lens 3-D camera at CEATEC in Japan next week.  It’s not the first time single-lens 3-D has been shown, and it’s not necessarily ideal (what’s gained in eliminating dual-lens differences is lost in interpupilary distance), but it’s still interesting that Sony will be introducing a 240-fps camera.

  1. It seems to me that there would be other trade offs as well. A single lens feeding two sensors at high frame rates should yield low sensitivity. I haven’t done a ray tracing but it also seems that the edge of the optical frame would become more important, making the optics critically important.
