Fujifilm will be releasing its 3D Printing System as early as April in the United Kingdom. The 3D printer will produce lenticular prints and it will be compatible with the Fujifilm Finepix Real 3D camera. The Fujifilm 3D printer will utilize lenticular sheets that act as lenses in order to reflect the images back at the viewer at different angles, which allows viewers to experience the images depth-of-field effect. Printing sizes on these Lenticular sheets will range from 4 x 6 to 6 x9 inches.Unfortunately, at this moment in time no price has been associated with the 3D printing technology.

A built to order piece of 3D technology has recently been revealed. The Ikonoskop A-Cam3D is able to record two images as individual RAW files in DNG format at a resolution of 1920 x 1080p, which allows users to record 3D footage. The full details have yet to be revealed however the Ikonoskop technology is reported to support a color depth of 12-bits and has the ability to record at speeds of 25 to 30 frames per second. No price has been given for the camera, however due to the fact it is custom built, 3DGUY is assuming it will be fairly expensive.

After witnessing Panasonic’s 3D technology at this month’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, it is clear that Panasonic has become one of the industries leaders. The fascinating next generation 3D technology on display saw the HD 3D VIERA win the ‘innovation of the year’ award at CES. 2010 will see Panasonic’s 3D plans hit the consumer market as they release a line-up of next generation technology that consists of; 3D HDTV’s, 3D Blu-ray, 3D viewing glasses and a 3D video camera. The Panasonic line-up is all compatible with each other which will help put a stop to questions such as, what glasses are needed to watch 3D content?

3D Film Factory has released the first production-ready, cost-effective, durable and precise 3D camera system – the 3D-BS Pro Rig. This 3D beam-splitter rig was specifically designed for use with the Red One cameras, as well as, other larger, broadcast quality cameras.

“Up until now, there’s only a few high-end facilities offering 3D rigs for Red One cameras and they’re very expensive. So we set out to create a quality 3D Red system most filmmakers could afford. We’re interested in proliferating 3D production by making it accessible. The result was the 3D-BS Pro Rig, a great 3D rig for the Reds, that shoots incredible 3D at a fraction of the cost,” said company president Karl Kozak.

The company’s new 3D-BS (beam-splitter) Pro Rig allows users to manually adjust both the camera convergence settings (1° to 5°) and the inter-ocular (camera-to-camera) distances from 0″ to 6″. It’s constructed of black anodized aluminum that’s virtually indestructible, with a weight of approximately 32 lbs. Its durable frame adjusts to fit almost any pair of large-sized, broadcast quality cameras, including but not limited to; Red One, Sony, Canon, Panasonic, Silicon Imaging and JVC.

“It’s really that easy to start shooting 3D images, you just need a few good tools and some training”, said Kozak. “Of course, to achieve superior 3D, you’ll need a stereographer. We use one on all of our 3D productions, because the cinematographer can’t do it all. As a result, we hire out professional stereographers for 3D training and 3D productions worldwide.”
