Viewing 3D Images Viewing 3D Images About viewing 3D images You can use the projector to view 3D videos by playing Blu-ray 3D compatible discs on a 3D Blu-ray player. This projector can also convert 2D videos to 3D for viewing. To enjoy stereoscopic 3D images, Panasonic 3D Eyewear (optional accessory) is necessary. 3D Eyewear is not included with this projector. See page 101 for the 3D image signals supported. Supported 3D Eyewear (as of September 2012) Panasonic TY-EW3D3 Series (rechargeable) TY-EW3D2 Series (rechargeable) TY-EW3D10 Series (disposable battery) The product number of the 3D Eyewear differs depending on the country of purchase. ■■Viewing 3D images Using the projector menu controls, set so that 3D images are shown. zzYou can watch 3D images in the following cases: - When a 3D image supporting Blu-ray disc is played on a 3D image supporting player/recorder connected using a HDMI cable to a 3D image supporting projector. - 2D->3D (Simulated 3D) ( page 69) 1) Wearing the 3D Eyewear zzSwitches on the 3D Eyewear power. zzPut on the 3D Eyewear 2) View zzWhen the HDMI receives information in which 3D mode is detected, 3D images are automatically displayed according to the signal. zzIf the 3D images are not displayed correctly or the images cause discomfort, the images can be adjusted by [3D INPUT FORMAT]. 3) After Use zzSwitches off the 3D Eyewear power. Attention zzAvoid keeping the 3D Eyewear at a location with high humidity and high temperature. For details on care and maintenance of 3D Eyewear, see the operating instructions of 3D Eyewear.
