3.9 3D and SYNC

Two cameras with KineBACK-W can implement real 3D shooting; you can

shoot multiple cameras in total sync with more cameras and KineSYNC box.

For Kine cameras in sync state, the sensors are almost completely

synchronized: time code synchronization, frame synchronization and

scanning synchronization with less than 5us mismatch. You need to prepare:

1. Each camera equipped with KineBACK-W (3D shooting option

embedded); all cameras with the exact same firmware;

2. One or more 3D SYNC cables;

3. For multi-cam SYNC, a KineSYNC box is a must.

NOTE One KineSYNC Box can help a Master to synchronize seven

slaves. To synchronize 32 cameras, you will need 32/7=5

KineSYNC Boxes.

3.9.1 Steps to set the two cameras

For 3D shooting:

1. Connect the cameras: power off the two cameras, and connect them

with 3D SYNC cable to their SYNC ports on KineBACK-W;

2. Settings: mirror shooting parameters for both of the cameras such as:

shutter, sensor fps, project fps, resolution, ISO, highlights, etc. (suggest

factory reset at first);

3. Naming the clip: [ConfigurationShootingSlate] Please set the Lens

number of Master to 0001, and slave one to 0002, which represent the

left eye clips and the right eye clips. All the other clip parameters must

be set exactly the same, except clip names;

4. Auto WB with gray or white card for two cameras respectively, so that

they gain consistent color temperature;

5. SYNC: choose one camera to set: [ConfigurationSYNC3D Master],

and the other one: [ConfigurationSYNC3D Slave], then a sync

confirmation will pop up to confirm the serial number of the Master

camera.

After confirming the connection, Master/Slave in Green font appears on the

upper left corner of the screen, then press REC button of the Master Camera,

two cameras shoot fully consistent clips, which match the left eye and right eye respectively.
