Other topics include auto-stereoscopic technologies coming to stores, James Cameron and Vincent pace going full-on 3D, the next gen HDSLR 2.0 and Blackmagic Design’s astonishing new Cinema Camera that shoots raw 12 bit footage for “Prosumer” prices. Monster apps like Draw Something and Instragram are discussed and movies John Carter, The Hunger Games and Pina 3D.
