3D TV

It should look fine as long as you use one lens (as you said).

Actually, I'm not sure about that with the LCD shutter tech. I'm not sure if it relies on both eyes to hide the fact that the lens is being blacked out 60 (er, 24?, 30?, 48?) times a second.

On most content there should be a 2D option, as long as everyone in the room is happy with losing 3D. Though, sadly, the standard for 3D Blu-ray allows for discs that contain a 3D version only, with no 2D option.[/QUOTE]

If it DOES have an effect on looking with one single eye, then it would darken the image significantly, wouldn't it? If it doesn't, I guess you wouldn't notice the blacking out that much. Isn't the frequency increased a lot?

While there are many monocular (one-eye) cues that we use to perceive depth, those are not very useful for producing a convincing 3-D image on a movie screen. you really need the binocular cues that the glasses give you to see the 3-D effects.

Hopefully there will be a way to buy a regular hdtv or turn the 3d "features" off. I had to go find the NON 3d Avatar movie to see.. you see, although I have two working eyes, one has a deformity in the rear which gives me 20/400 (20/800 according to one quack) vision, and making "3d vision" worthless to me. Trying to view the red and blue images in those types of provided glasses is simply annoying. Same with the other non (refracted?) red/blue glasses. My non-fully-working eye functions mainly as an extended "corner of the eye".

I'm guessing that they'll have three of each channel once this goes mainstream. One in digital, one in HD, and one in 3D.
