High Contrast Ratio – 120,000: 1 with Advanced Iris 3 technology
The Advanced Iris 3 contrast enhancement works like the human eye, responding dynamically to the level of light in each scene, always selecting the optimum contrast. With a very high range of 120,000:1, Advanced Iris 3 can bring out the detail in darker sequences and prevent bright scenes from looking washed out.
Motionflow with Dark Frame Insertion technology
This technology brings fast-paced, cinematic action to your home. Motionflow with Dark Frame Insertion technology makes motion much smoother through a method called Double Speed Processing. This innovative process creates and inserts artificial frames, first comparing key visual factors on successive frames – for example the position of a car hubcap – then calculating the split second of ‘missing’ action. The optional insertion of darkened frames heightens the contrast and eliminates any judder – by allowing the eye to naturally blend one frame into the next. This action mimics that of actual movie projection
1080 Full HD SXRD Panel technology
With three of Sony’s 1920 x 1080 SXRD panels at the heart of this projector, a consistently superior image is produced across the entire screen.
The unique combination of three separate panels of 1920 x 1080 resolution (one each for red, green and blue) means that SXRD can deliver over 6.2 million pixels. SXRD provides film-quality smoothness by minimizing the space between pixels (0.25μm) for smooth and dot-less pictures.
3 x Cinema Modes
In Cinema Mode, films can be viewed as close to the original director’s cut as possible, reproducing details such as natural skin tone, lighting, colour, and contrast.
Digital Picture Processing – BRAVIA ENGINE 2
The unique BRAVIA ENGINE 2 delivers vibrant colours and exceptional image quality. It consists of eight separate stages of image enhancement – carried out in real time – each has a specialised function. Together they generate a picture that is optimised in every way, from the accuracy of the contrast to the precision of the colour reproduction.
Panel shift and alignment function
The panel alignment function allows users to select R (Red) or B (Blue) to make adjustments based on G (Green), and to adjust the horizontal and vertical direction by shifting a full image or each zone from 16x9 points of each colour, achieving the perfect colour registration of the projected images.
Anamorphic Zoom Mode
The VPL-VW85 has a “Anamorphic zoom” mode in the wide modes to enjoy wider aspect ratio. With this mode, it is possible to create a full 2.35:1 image just like a movie theatre when using a commercially available anamorphic lens.
24p True Cinema mode
This feature allows films to be watched as intended by the director for the big screen, at 24 frames per second.
