Re: 3D HDMI 1.4a to twin SDI converter
 

The TS is 60i. The captured content is 24P. The captured L and R files are full resolution, 24P files. A TV MIGHT automatically switch to side-side mode and expand the output from the camera, but the Ultrastudio will not.

Re: 3D HDMI 1.4a to twin SDI converter
 

Maybe the import question for Ultrastudio 3D is, if the output from hdmi has bypassed the compression from the hardware-encoder in the Z10K or not. Do you know what is true for the Z10K?

Beside that the Z10K is a 8bit camera with 4:2:0 - so to shoot uncompressed in 10bit and up to 4:4:4 is nice, but the bottleneck will be the Z10K signalprocessing I think. But I agree that it could make sense to capture at least in 4:2:2 and 8 bit.

I don't think the camera would encode and then decode the signal to send to the display (EVF, LCD or HDMI). That would be atypical design. The question is - what DOES it do to the signal between reading it off the sensor and outputting to HDMI? I can say that the HDMI output is not especially beautiful, on first look.

Hopefully, I can get some testing done.

By the way, I think the camera does some device detection on the HDMI port. If it senses an HDMI1.4a device, it outputs the 24P in 60i PsF stream. If it detects a 1.3 device, it seems to fall back to 60i SxS (no matter how the camera is configured to shoot).

Yes it does - I mentioned this a few posts back! :)

Well, it would be great to know that, but I think it is hard to answer without internal Panasonci know-how. But it could be a deal-breaker.

Would this work for the Sony HDR-D10, the JVC GS-TD1 ?

Re: 3D HDMI 1.4a to twin SDI converter
 

Can anyone please confirm if the HDMI 1.4a output can be split to the two SDI channels from the Ultrastudio 3d and then captured to dual Hyperdeck shuttle ?
