Enjoy your favourite movies in astonishing 4K detail Imagine the fully immersive cinematic quality of 4K in your own home. Sony VPL-VW260es home theater projector gives you a 4096 x 2160 resolution picture, over four times better than Full HD.
It’s just like being at the movies.
The exceptionally high dynamic contrast ratio of 200,000:1 with 1,500 ANSI lumens brightness produces stunning detail and rich, faithful colour – even in well-lit rooms.
Get the very best from your 2D and 3D discs
While more and more native 4K material is becoming available, the VPL-VW260ES uses our Reality Creation technology to upscale Full HD content for an incredible 4K experience. This Super Resolution feature means you’ll get the very best from your current Blu-ray Disc™ library, with fuller colour, greater clarity and more impact than ever before.
4K SXRD native resolution:
Advanced Sony’s SXRD (Silicon X-tal Reflective Display) panel technology featured in Sony’s digital cinema projectors delivers native 4K (4096 x 2160) resolution images, with more than four times the detail of Full HD. Fine details are wonderfully clear and natural, without jagged edges or visible pixels.
With more than four times the resolution of Full HD, native 4K offers 8.8 million pixels (4096 x 2160) for a picture that’s incredibly lifelike, which is why it is the resolution defined by the DCI (Digital Cinema Initiative) for cinema distribution.
See corner-to-corner clarity and watch movies from much closer than you would in Full HD.
Ultra high contrast ratio and brightness
Drawing on optical technology developed, we’ve achieved both high brightness (1,500 ANSI lumens) and high contrast.
Advanced SXRD panels
4K digital drive panels minimise the space between pixels in every frame with an incredible response rate of 2.5-milliseconds. That’s much faster, and more stable, than an LCD TV and produces ultra-smooth, dot-free pictures with natural, fluid movement – whatever the action.
New Motionflow
We’ve enhanced our Motionflow technology. ‘Combination’ mode uses our ‘Film Projection’ and ‘Motion Enhancer’, adding frames to reduce blur and maintain brightness in thrilling, fast-moving scenes. Cinema purists can choose ‘True Cinema’ to retain the original 24 frames per second.
TRILUMINOS Display
The optical engine and SXRD panels incorporate our TRILUMINOS Display technology to produce a much broader colour range, reproducing more tones and textures than a standard projector system. The result is greater purity, depth and realism.
The super-resolution Reality Creation
As well as native 4K material, you can see your current Full HD Blu-ray™ or DVD movie collection upscaled for a 4K experience. Reality Creation is a Super Resolution technology that radically enhances Full HD content, even upscaling 3D movies for 4K
Compatible with ‘Mastered in 4K’ Blu-ray™ discs
Drawing on the same technology used to downscale 4K material for Full HD, the VPLVW260ES gives you a near native 4K experience with discs ‘Mastered in 4K’. It’s as close as you can get to the 4K-pixel resolution and expanded colour range of the original
Low Latency Mode
A new feature for gamers. Experience our fastest ever response time between your controller and the screen for ultimate gaming action.
HDR Compatible
Get the most from your projector when viewing new UHD Blu-ray and streaming services with High Dynamic Range (HDR). HDR video offers a vastly expanded brightness range to deliver far more realistic, high-contrast images and brilliant colours. Compatible with both HDR10 and HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) formats. Sony’s home projectors reproduce colour and contrast faithfully to creators’ intentions
