    Default Panasonic VT50 3d Glasses? Which are best?

    Amazon.com: Panasonic VIERA TY-ER3D4MU Active Shutter 3D Eyewear: Electronics

    Are these the best glasses to get for my VT50?

    Another stupid question, when you buy a 3d blu ray, is a 2d version typically included as well?

    That sucks that they are a bit more expensive, but I'd stick with the Panasonic ones unless there are some generics that are well reviewed. The glasses for my Samsung are only $20/pr. and they work very well and the batteries have lasted a long time.

    In the compatibility chart they show both passive and active shutter glasses are compatible with the 2012 VT50.

    Active shutter is the better of the two, yes?

    There were only a few reviews on Amazon for their glasses for Panasonics, but none were 5 star and other than one that said they worked, the rest said they did not work properly.
