nano3D builds upon the award winning nanoFlash by combining two nanoFlashes, with sophisticated 3D firmware to provide an elegant, camera-mountable, stereoscopic recording and playback solution.
Each recording will start on the same frame, and playback will be in “Pixel Sync”. Professional or consumer 3D monitors may be used to analyze your images as the nano3D includes 3D Image Combiner and Processor functions. Side by Side Image Combiner is provided in Live View, Recording, and during Playback. Menu selectable Pixel Offset is also provided.

When not shooting 3D, the two nanoFlashes may be used independently, or used for Fully Redundant Recording, or for creating both High Resolution and Proxy Mode recordings simultaneously.

Records Isolated “Left Eye” and “Right Eye” or if desired, records combined “Side by Side” 3D footage.

• Playback is in “Pixel Sync”.
• Works with both Professional and Consumer 3D Monitors\
• Records up to 280 Mbps for very high quality recordings.
• Uses low cost CompactFlash media
• Includes Image Combiner and 3D Processor Functions which work in Live View, Recording, and Playback
• Includes Image Flip (Vertical), Image Flop (Horizontal) and both, for Live View and before Recording.
• In 2D Mode, the nano3D can record the signal from one camera with full redundancy or one can record for both On-Line and Off-Line editing, High Bit-Rate and low Bit-Rate Proxy modes simultaneously.

• nano3D works with almost all HD-SDI or HDMI equipped cameras that have a clean output. HD-SDI cameras are typically preferred. With HDMI cameras, playback requires a simple cable change.
• Genlocked cameras are recommended for 3D work. Alternatives to “Genlock” for certain HDMI cameras may also work.
• The nano3D supports Long-GOP and I-Frame Only; for 3D work, I-Frame Only is recommended.
• I-Frame Only Bit-Rates supported are 100, 140, 180, 220 and 280 Megabits per second (Mbps), all recorded in 4:2:2.
• The nano3D can be quickly split into two separate nanoFlashes for non-3D work, by removing four screws.
• Long-GOP HD Bit-Rates for non-3D work are 18 and 35 Mbps in 4:2:0, and 50, 80, 100, 140 and 180 Mbps in 4:2:2.
• Frame Rates supported: 1080p23.976, 1080p24, 1080p25, 1080p29.97, 1080p30, 1080i50, 1080i59.94, 1080i60. and 720p23.976, 720p24, 720p25, 720p29.97, 720p30, 720p50, 720p59.94, 720p60. Note: the nano3D, in 720p under 50 frames per second, does not currently support playback from the unit itself.
• Menu Options are available for conversion of Progressive Segmented Frames (PSF) to True Progressive, as well as removal of pulldown frames. This includes removal of 3:2 pulldown, 2:2 pulldown, and others.
• Image Flip (Vertical) and Image Flop (Horizontal) and Both are supported. Image Flip and Flop occur before recording and the monitor out signals are Flipped and Flopped, as appropriate.
• Side by Side 3D Image Combining is supported, no separate processor is needed. This is currently the best option, as it preserves the vertical resolution. Ideal for viewing on a consumer 3D television.
• 3D Image Processing is provided in the nano3D. This includes the Flip/Flop and the combining functions as well as image offset functions so that Live View and Playback may be analyzed on-set.
• The nano3D records the “Left Eye” and “Right Eye” as two isolated channels. A menu option allows combined image to be recorded, if desired.
• Monitoring is via two HD-SDI outputs for professional 3D monitors, or via a HD-SDI to HDMI converter for consumer 3D televisions. The AJA Hi-5 is recommended which is typically located near the televisions so that a single, low cost, HD-SDI cable run can be used.
• Up to 8 Channels of 24-Bit/48K audio (per “Eye”) are supported via audio embedded in the HD-SDI signal or up to 2 channels (per “Eye”) of mic/line analog audio via a 3.5mm mini-jack. Mixer Tape-Out can be used, if desired. Thus, up to 16 isolated audio channels can be recorded.
• nano3D records in native Quicktime for Final Cut Pro and native MXF for Avid, Sony Vegas, Edius, Adobe CS3/4/5, etc.
• nano3D includes two nanoFlashes, Remote Control with Tally Light, heavy duty AC Power Supply, P-Tap Power Cable, two HD-SDI cables, Y-Power Cable, Y-Cable for Remote Control, and special hinged Bracket to hold the two nanoFlashes.
