        Nope. The one I saw was real :-) It is similar to the H2 kit. Two cameras connected by a sync cable. But the sync cable has big connections for some reason. If

                    Just heard from a 'source' close to GoPro - he claims there will be no 3D for Hero 3 - as the Hero 4 will be released in Nov. Hero 3 will only continue as 'Black Edition' and will drop in price... 


                    Hero 4 will be the one with 3D but he wasn't sure if it will be on the initial release or somewhere down the line - he didn't think they were going to make another housing for the cameras, but rather a mount of some kind...


                    take this for what it's worth... the only certain thing is that GoPro just announced discount pricing on the Hero 3 black/silver editions...

                            There has been some discussion in other forums about post-syncing.  It is possible, but usually not likely.  Here is why:   If you happen to be exactly one whole frame out of sync, yes, you can pull a frame in post and be exactly in sync.  But, the odds are very much against it.  Considering the number of possible fractional frames that your sync can be off by, usually no post correction will take care of this.   It is very subjective, of course, and if there is not much motion, as Eric said, a post push or pull may get you slightly closer.  But, it still will be off.  And, while you can sometimes get away with a very slight audio mis-sync in 2D, in 3D the slightest error becomes noticeable in the image.

                              It's funny how the FIRST rule of 3D has always been cameras (both still and video) that in sync - I remember 'in the day' when I used to have my mechanical shutters checked for sync and if they were even 1/400 of second out of sync (as happened on an old twin rig I had) I would hold my head in shame and wonder how I would ever make 3D photos... and now on youtube there are dozens of 'experts' claiming to 'sync' gopros and other video cameras with remotes, cellophane and bubblegum!  I was at the LA 3D Film Festival a week or so ago and there was a documentary about Ireland that had some of the worst 3D I have ever seen, if you tried to get every single imaginable 3D violation into one film as a means of demonstration, you still wouldn't produce something like this; afterwards in the 'Q&A' the stereographer they shot with a couple of Canon Vixia cameras and was 'impressed' with how easy they were to match, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The only positive thing to be said about the experience - it made the bad conversions I've seen seem much better 3D by comparison... which is tooo bad...  the fight goes on...

                                If your subject is moving slowly, even 4 seconds (or more) of mis-sync can
                                be fine.

                                I was shooting for a Nat Geo 3D IMAX film recently where I was doing single
                                camera stereo... one high-resolution still camera and a stepper-motor
                                controlled slider for the old-school "cha-cha" method... most of my frames
                                were taken 3-4 seconds apart, and everything worked great because my subject
                                was moving very slowly.

                                So yes, the requirements of sync are solely based on the subject matter. No
                                need to hang your head in shame at 1/400s mis-sync if it captured the shot.
                                An "expert" uses exactly the technology he/she needs to execute the shot.

                                  True. However, that assumes you are doing dual projection polarized. With Real D and active glasses, a split-synch is already factored in. I think Tom Koester was saying a quarter-frame off in either direction is compatible with active glasses/Real D? He originally shot SLOW GLASS and others without synching cameras, flipping the frame in post when it was a quarter off, depending on which direction the drift.
                                   
                                  Of course, that was old wild-west days, and there is no excuse for off-synch by intentional neglect, now. Then again, we are still not in consensus on how to spell the darn thing. Synch is short for synchronization.

                                    Temporal disparity is baked in to the velocity of objects composed in a stereo pair when view sequentially wether the pair is projected simultaneous or asynchronous. If temporal sync is achieved when the stereo pair is originally captured, a stereo progressive tachistoscopic viewing of an assigned left and right stereo pair is not discernible by human visual perception.

                                      Sometimes multiple words can mean the same thing. We don't have to have a
                                      consensus if they're both acceptable.

                                         Gopro have released a Gopro 3+ (black and silver editions) with little spec difference except for a new lens (less chromatic aberration), better Wifi latency, and better in camera color processing. The case is a little smaller, but otherwise the camera seems to have the same dimensions, buttons etc. Protune is dropped from the Silver edition. No mention of a 3d kit!
