As far as I can tell from that web page, it records only to an external desktop PC.

It's too bad all these camera manufacturers assume the entertainment industry wants 65mm baseline when there are already 2/3" HD heads that we can put side by side at 35mm baseline using C-mount lenses.

From the look of the picture, you can use any Nikon lens you want, so long as it has a 52mm filter thread. Or maybe not.

I don't get the idea of building a camera this way. If they would simply separate the 2 sensor heads with flexible cabling, they'd really be on to something.

But at the end of the day it is the lenses that restrict how close together you can put the sensors. Fast lenses for large sensors are going to have large diameters. I just can't see how they will cover the R&D costs for this, it's not one thing or another. The primary use for one piece S3D cameras with fixed Interaxial is IMHO for handheld work were you don't want to be tethered to a bulky external recorder. If your not handheld then it's normally quite reasonable to use a rig with a pair of cameras where you can adjust the Interaxial. Variable interaxial is vital if you want any flexibility in the way you shoot. I'd have been much more impressed if this was a pair of cameras with variable IA and a single combined controller.
