Finally the explosive effects of 3D that have left movie goers the world over entranced in recent years are available to the amateur movie maker. No longer will we be forced to watch family videos and short clips of people hurting themselves in humorous ways in a boring old two dimensions, because the Aiptek i2 3D camcorder offers the kind of high-definition stereoscopic 3D recording capabilities that will make treasured family memories and drunken mishaps alike burst forth from the screen, in ways we could have only previously dreamt of.
‘Avatar’ the first in the recent wave of huge Hollywood blockbusters made specifically for the 3D market cost over 230 million dollars to make, but for the Aiptek i2’s launch price of just below 200 dollars (considerably cheaper) and a tin of blue paint, you and your friends could head out into the forest for the day and record the sequel, possibly netting some of the hundreds of millions of dollars profit that the original movie is set to make for your troubles. And if you feel like sharing your home 3D recordings with the world, look no further than YouTube 3D, where you can allow visitors from around the world to watch, comment on, and rate your homemade masterpieces (and if you’re smart you could even earn a little cash back from the YouTube/Google partner program).
The Aiptek i2 3D Camcorder
Utilizing powerful dual-HD sensors the Aiptek i2 3D-HD is able to capture both 3D stills and videos (as well as in standard HD format if preferred). Footage is stored to SD cards (class 6 and above recommended) and can be expanded upto 32 GB. The Aiptek i2 is able to take still images to 5 megapixels, and comes with a built in USB connector for easy uploading of video content.
Like other popular handheld cameras such as the ‘Flip’ and ‘Kodak Playsport’ the Aiptek i2 3D-HD is both light enough and small enough to fit into the pocket, meaning that now you really can film true 3D footage anytime, anywhere. And with the Aiptek i2’s 3D ‘live view’ technology your 3D footage can even be played back on the move, via this little beauties inbuilt 3D display.
The Aiptek i2’s battery life of 1.5 hours is a little less than I would have liked, but with the possibility's for fun that this device offers for the bargain price of less than 200 dollars, that’s something I can learn to live with (I’ll just have to remember to pack my solar powered charger).
So all in all the Aiptek i2 3D gets a big thumbs up. 3D movie making at an affordable price, go buy one.
