Didn't want to derail the thread where someone was asking opinions on 3D TV's hence this post.
I took part in a seminar a little while ago where it was stated that up to 10% of people cant see 3D on TVs.
3d TV viewing for young children (under 5 or 6) is not recommended. This is as if children watch too much 3D TV their braind don't learn proper depth perception. This in turn camlead to all sorts of difficulties later in life.
While less of an issue than it used to be, flicker is still an issue that can lead to health problems.
3D TV isn't real 3D. If you change your seating position your perspective doesn't change. let's rather call it 2D with depth.
Depending on the effects used 3D viewing can be hard on your eyes. Your eyes are forced to move a whole lot more than in real life.
When viewing 3D through glasses there is a colour shift. This may only be of concern to those of us who calibrate TVs but the increased brightness can be an issue. (and yes I've measured the colour temperature of a TV through 3D glasses)
On the plus side.
When properly done 3D can enhance your viewing experience.
In the education sector it can be used to enhance teaching. (viewing a heart in 3D is better than looking at one in 2D)
The technology used in 3D typically enhances 2D (faster refresh rates ETC)
