Sweet, Sony are pretty serious about this. I hope 3D cameras will take off so we can view pictures with depth in them.

Sony has offered further details of its rollout for 3D support on PlayStation 3, including movies, PlayTV and photos.

According to Sony Europe's Mick Hocking, speaking at an event in London attended by CVG, a firmware update for Blu-ray 3D movie support will be released in September.

Support for 3D photos and video camera recordings will come by the end of 2010, he said, but he refused to specify the timing.

Beyond that, PlayTV users can expect to access 3D content through the DVR software as soon as broadcasters start offering them.

Here you will see why sony is pushing 3D so much.

"Some have suggested that Sony should go attack the sub-$1000 HDTV segment because it is the fastest growing, but the truth is that Sony is not built for that, it doesn't think like that, it's not in its DNA. Despite a recent decline, the Sony brand -the company's most formidable asset- is still very powerful, and going after the low-end market will probably destroy it, without giving Sony any assurance of a victory over Vizio, LG or Samsung. This is a no-win strategy. To keep its brand while increasing its margins, Sony only has one option: go 3D all the way."

"Sony is not betting the farm on 3D, it merely tries to stay itself."
