I am also curious to hear if they hold their sync better vs the TrueDepth and 201s.

I read a number of them are working on no glasses three D model, for me I care more about 4K or even better 8K with no lamp!

Put it out of site and operate it with iRule IP.

Sounds good! Curious to hear how they perform.

3D makes me nauseated, no thank I want 4K or 8K any day

Wow! No kidding? That is great news Zombie and I am definitely going to order a pair. Thanks for the report and I am excited to use these.

Are these universal glasses that will work with the JVC too?

Are there any child size 3D glasses that will work with the JVC RF emitter? Got a 4year old nephew, The Hobbit would be great for him! Also Zombie, have you tried the Samsung glasses yet?

I got 2 sets of these: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SSG-4100GB-Active-Glasses-Models/dp/B007K9P7H0/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=2TKRI2LXJ4UHH&coliid=I270304R655QCA and they work with the new JVC RF emitter. I really didn't want my 7 and 9 year old nephews using my JVC glasses and had gotten those with a little new 40 Samsung tv I purchased for our upstairs and they paired and worked like a charm.

Hope this helps.

I bought 6 pair of the Samsung 4100 glasses for my daughters & their friends. I will get my wife & I a nicer set, just don't know what yet. They were only $18 a pair on Amazon with free shipping.

finally got to see bbars x75 in action for 3D. thanks bbar for the opportunity. had to take my bd player to him so he could play region b blurays though hehe

we watched art of flight in 3D. good punch to the pic good detail and clarity. a few questions though for regular 3D watchers though as bbar detests 3D and probably no help with any of this ! .

it took a while to line up 3D on the PJ. perhaps this is because bbar doesnt have auto detect on 3D turned on ?. and had to go manual selection of 3D and then manual selection of colour profile preset and manually bump up the brightness. also RF 3D glasses in my case refused to synch - bbar said have to take it behind the pj for it to synch?. budd sitting next to me and ageless behind didnt have that issue. PQ wise noticed a couple of things there was a distinct ghosting/crosstalk ie the ghost line that followed the snow capped mountains and skier as went down the slopes. noticed a touch of blur as well. Additionally bbar definitely hasnt calibrated the 3D as there was a bit of red push and oversaturation in the colurs. I just would have thought the calibration for 2D caries over to 3D with auto adjustment compensating for tint and brightness ?

please dont some one read this as derogatory as picture quality was very good overall and 2D when we swapped to excellent. just some question marks, kind of stuff I'll have to check off on for jvc to be contender for me late in the year when hoping to do an upgrade

ps am reposting here incase some more jvc 3D watchers here which seem a bit of a rarity over at my home forum

Are these rechargeable? Very little info listed on any site's description.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply.

I figured they weren't. I'm not too keen on having to buy replacement batteries. Might have to go with the True Depths. I like how these seem to be difficult to break synch though.

Tough decision, whereas if they had just made these rechargeable (hello 2013 lol) it would be a no brainer.

Thanks again for the hands-on and the reply.

I agree with Zombie that rechargeable batteries are no big deal since the 2032's are so cheap. One can buy 50 for $10 on Amazon. I have also had the batteries in rechargeable glasses go bad and that is the end of the glasses.

I also just found out that 3D Active just received their new rechargeable 144k DLP glasses. I just ordered a pair and will report back when I receive them. I had a pair of their other glasses and they were the most comfortable ones I had found.

thanks as always zombie, not 2D to 3D conversion. art of flight 3D was released in the theatres late last year and on blu-ray here in oz little while back,

not seen that before but a good watch. have you seen life of pi as yet seems to be a reference viewing for both 2D and 3D. mine just shipped from amazon

thanks for reporting back re glasses, yeah defnitely possible just low in charge. good to know natural is good out the box. seems a pity jvc require to manually select colour presets. youd think like other pjs it would hold a colour preset so when detecting 3D would just select the correct colour preset ? otherwise would be a bit messy in use ? certainly not just case of stick disc in and hit play

Besides the projector specific issues you mentioned, how is the 3d in The Art of Flight? I would have to mod my Oppo to even import and watch it so I doubt I will do that, but I am still curious how the 3d turned out. I love this disc!

How long do these CR2032 batteries typically last before needing to be replaced? How long did your rechargeable glasses last before the battery wouldn't hold a charge?

How many hours would you guess a CR2032 gives you of movie watching? Have you had a rechargeable pair die on you completely, and if so, how many months did it take?

Just trying to gauge if the 2032's last longer before they need changing than a rechargeable pair lasts before it can no longer hold a charge.

Thanks Zombie for the advice on adjusting the Benq glasses. Mine arrived today from B&H photo in NY. They have them in stock at $79.99.

They are very uncomfortable out of the box. I used a heat gun to adjust them and they now fit fine. One has to be very careful with the heat gun it only takes a few seconds to heat the plastic to make adjustments.

I have briefly compared these glasses to the True Depth and Sansonic. The new Benq seems to block the light the best but the True-Depth glasses are not bad at all. Will do more testing later. I also have a pair of the new 3D active coming soon,.

I also like the fact that the glasses use the button 2032 cell. They are very cheap and one can find 100 for about $10 on Amazon. Better than a rechargeable one that can go bad.

Has anyone tried the Monoprice DLP glasses. They look nice and one review states that they work with the Benq 1070.

I saw that they last around 150 hours on the Sharp 4100. That's a lot of 3D movies! That was posted somewhere in the listing by Sharp.
