Panasonic Announces 3D Interchangeable Lens for Lumix G Micro System


The first to introduce mirrorless DSLR cameras, Panasonic has now become the first to announce a 3D lens for its Lumix G Micro System.

The 3D lens for the LUMIX G Micro System features two optical systems installed within the diameter of the lens mount, creating stereo images from the left and right lenses that are then processed with a 3D image processing system.

This new compact 3D-capable interchangeable lens will be easy to handle and allow instant 3D shooting, without distortion or time lag between left and right images – even when shooting moving objects.

Panasonic plans to release this new lens for sale before the end of the year.

Mirror-less DSLRs, also called compact DSLRs, feature DSLR capabilities in a compact-camera form factor. Their image sensors are as large and capable as those of DSLRs, and they support interchangeable lenses.

Olympus and Panasonic launched the world's first compact DSLR cameras in August 2008 based on their Four Thirds standard. Called the Micro Four Thirds, it retained the 18x13.5 mm sensor of their Four Third DSLR but dropped the mirror box assembly. Pansasonic's offering was called Lumix DMC-G1, while Olympus marketed its product as E-P1.

Compact DSLRs cannot use lenses made for traditional DSLRs.
