I use the Optoma glasses that are 80ish $. Not sure if the Sainsonic are exactly the same quality and sync well with the projector but being a brand new product (when I got the projector in September) I wanted to make sure they are perfectly compatible. I have to say I too have an issue with the 3D but it is only happening on certain movies (Iron Man 3 so far but only tried 3 3D movies). The 3D seems to occasionally "de-sync" causing the image to be blurry. The glasses are however connected. It isn't my receiver as I tried with the PS3 plugged directly into the projector and the same happened. Given it did not happen with all the movies I'm inclined to think the problem was with the movie itself but I still thought it's good to give you a heads up.

Its work and. it doesnt require emitter however I suggest you to buy 3d glasses from optoma coz sometimes this one doesnt work even I reset it..it having trouble to connect with the projector..

Just buy DLP-link 3d glasses and good to go. Emitter is built-in. Glasses from 3DTV is better than SainSonoic, and about the same price ($25-$30)/pair.

View sonic makes a 3d converter box that hooks up via hdmi to the projector. That and 3d glasses make a hell of a viewing expierence!

Yes, I have played 3d movies on this Epson projector via a 3d Blueray DVD, and not a download (suggest you buy a 3d Blueray DVD movie and "Avatar" is supposed to be a good test of 3d capabilities). You first must charge the glasses and once that is done, you have to initialize them that using the button on the glasses themselves, when done correctly, will show same on the screen, something like "Glasses are ready to use." Then, using the remote control, press the 2D/3D button which is on the left in the 9th row from the top. That should get you a 3d picture although there are other adjustments you can make. REVIEW THE MANUAL FOR MORE INFORMATION. I cannot speak for downloads as I have never tried that myself. Also, don't forget, to play a 3d Blueray DVD, you must have a 3d DVD player!

you need both a 3d player such as your (blueray) and a 3d tv OR 3d projector in order to watch a 3d movie , you will also need the corresponding glasses designed to go with your projector or tv

The glasses are all you need. I use them with my BenQ W1500, and the 3D is excellent.

If you want to watch 3d movies you need a 3d dvd player, and Not passive but 3d shutter glasses, you can find then as cheap as $9 a pair.... keep in mind... you get what you pay for... that in mind... good one's sell for about $15, ...If your using for games.... I've got nothing.... Hope this helps you...

Make sure the tv does not require an emitter for 3D. If it does not, these glasses will work.

Specifically, you use an HDMI cable. I believe that older HDMI cables don't work for 3D, but I might be mistaken.

I've read elsewhere that it requires a 3D source, the projector, and 3D glasses (the active-shutter type, IIRC). When the projector detects the glasses, the otherwise grayed-out menu choices become selectable. I would guess it also takes twice the bandwidth of 2D high-def, or 20Mbps if you're viewing source over the Internet, but home/work networks should have plenty of bandwidth. And if you're playing through your PC (via HDMI-out), it obviously needs a decoder, but I think it also must be HDCP compliant if accessing content over the Internet (or commercial content). That's less likely if you're using VGA-out.

Yes. If not, you may need the optoma 3dXL converter. This bridges the compatibility between 3d dlp projectors and 3Dtv channels/3d blu-ray. The glasses are perfect though.

There's actually quite a few. The glasses that came with our Samsung 3D tv work with our Epson projector as well. Spend a little time doing some research online and there's some deals to be found. My wife found a 5 pack of generic glasses for a little over $100 and they work fine.

Theoretically, yes. This projector is a DLP 3D ready projector BUT understand that the only video inputs on this model projector are VGA and the standard definition "yellow" video connection. In order to view a 3D movie on a 3D ready device (PS3, Xbox 3650, PC, etc) you would need to have that device plugged into the projector on the VGA port (standard def won't work for the 3D aspect) and have compatible 3D glasses (the cheapy red/blue ones don't work, nor do the plastic ones used at movie theaters, you'd need a TV quality set). As for myself I've never used the feature since I don't have the glasses. But it is supposedly possible.

yes passive 3d glasses will work, the paper ones that have the red in one lens and blue in the other, will work. However There are some 3d passive classes that will not work like the ones they hand out at movie theaters. I found that the only ones that work passively with this projector again is the paper ones that have the red and blue lens in it. I will say, the active glasses are amazing depending on the movie and with 3D games, watch out the screen flies at you from 18 feet away easily, very neat.Hope that helps

I have Optoma HD25e 1080p 2800 Lumen Full 3D DLP Home Theater Projector with HDMI and work very good and also I have Optoma BG-ZF2100GLS, Active Shutter 3D-RF Glasses and work perfect.

This projector is not capable of outputting 3D for passive glasses. Passive 3D from a projector is expensive, either requiring an extremely expensive projector or an extremely complicated dual projector setup. You would also need a special screen that can properly reflect the polarized light of the passive 3d image. There are converters, but they are more expensive than this projector. Converting projected active 3d to passive 3d removes the main benefit of passive which is absolutely no flickering.
