Under development: Panasonic twin-lens 3D digital camera

Fuji boldly came out with its 3D system and they may risk going bald before another manufacturer releases an actual 3D twin-lens camera model. But today we got a bit closer to the "another manufacturer" part with Panasonic revealing that they are working on a twin-lens Lumix 3D digital camera with 3D HD video recording capability as well. A prototype will be shown at IFA 2011 in Berlin. According to the press release, the camera will have two 4X optical folded-optics lenses with stabilization. More details will be revealed at a later time, with a "Winter" estimated release date.
