Here's The Story... If you have a Mitsubishi DLP 3D Ready HDTV and want to start watching 3D content you will need a couple items before you get started. The first is a Mitsubishi 3D Adapter (Model #: 3DA-1), which includes: - Mitsubishi Adapter
- Remote for adapter with 1 CR2025 battery
- Adapter Stand
- 4 foot high speed HDMI cable
- 4 foot 3-Pin VESA cable
- AC power supply for adapter
Here's Why You Need The Adapter: Mitsubishi DLP 3D Ready HDTV's use what's called "Checkerboard" format to handle the 3D content. The problem is most 3D sources (i.e. virtually all 3D Blu-ray players, Satellite & Cable Companies, the PS3 Game Console, etc.) don't use this "Checkerboard" format. In fact, we have only been able to find three 3D Blu-ray Players that will let you send the content to your Mitsubishi DLP 3D Ready HDTV in checkerboard format. So if: - You don't plan on using any other content source than a 3D Blu-ray Player and
- You don't have a Blu-ray player right now or are willing to buy another 3D Blu-ray player...
Then we would recommend you go this route instead of buying this Mitsubishi 3D Adapter. Those Panasonic models are the: DMP-BDT100 , DMP-BDT300 , and the DMP-BDT350 (discontinued). However, if you plan on watching 3D content from any other type of 3D Blu-ray player, a game console like the PS3, Satellite & Cable TV, etc. then you will need to have this Mitsubishi 3D Adapter.
But Wait! You're Not Done Just Yet... Once you have 3D content coming into your DLP 3D Ready HDTV in the necessary "Checkerboard" format with either an adapter listed here or using one of the Panasonic 3D Blu-ray players mentioned above, you will then need to purchase 3D Glasses. You currently have 2 options: - DLP 3D Glasses or
- IR 3D Glasses
2 of the biggest problems people report with using DLP glasses are: - You can lose sync very easily with DLP for various reasons
- DLP can produce rainbow effects on the screen while you are watching 3D content
Below Are Your 2 Choices For 3D Glasses: OR Option #2 - IR 3D Glasses - If you decide to go with IR glasses because you want a better 3D experience you will need to take 2 steps: Step 1: IR Emitter - To go with using IR glasses you will first need an IR emitter (different than the adapter). We offer a high powered IR Emitter and the Mitsubishi Brand IR Emitter (if you want to settle for that instead), below are both options: Step 2: IR 3D Glasses - Once you have the IR Emitter you will then want to purchase IR Glasses, We looked at many types of 3D IR Glasses and these are your best options below: |
