Fusion Camera System (a.k.a. Reality Camera System 1) is a Digital movie camera system developed by James Cameron and Vince Pace. It was developed as a way to shoot features in stereoscopic 3-D.[1] The Fusion Camera System makes use of Sony HDC-F950 and Sony HDC-1500 HD cameras equipped with Fujinon lenses.[2] The digital high-definition camera system was used on Cameron's documentaries and movies Aliens of the Deep, Ghosts of the Abyss and Avatar. Other directors have used the camera on movies including Robert Rodriguez's Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over and The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D, Eric Brevig's Journey to the Center of the Earth, Paul W. S. Anderson's Resident Evil: Afterlife , Joseph Kosinski's Tron Legacy, Michael Bay's Transformers: Dark of the Moon, and Jerzy Hoffman's Battle of Warsaw 1920. The camera system has also been used to film sporting events such as the 2007 NBA finals.[3]
