Eco Mode Key
Users can easily select power-saving Eco Modes. The most energy-efficient mode is accessible though a single button-push, and further adjustments are available through an easily-understood menu system.
Front Exhaust
With a front exhaust system, users sitting behind the projector are not affected by expelled hot air and fan noise.
Easy to operate control panel layout
The Sony VPL-EX100's control panel is on top of the device for easy operation, with large, easy-to-locate controls.
Built-in upward beam angle and keystone adjustment
Normally, the front angle of a projector has to be adjusted to raise the beam to the screen. In the VPL-EX100, this initial adjustment is built-in and includes a corresponding keystone adjustment, saving two setup stages.
Automatic Keystone Adjustment
The projector can detect keystone distortion and can correct it automatically. (Note that since this is an electronic correction, it will reduce the picture quality slightly).
Smart APA (Auto Pixel Alignment)
When a computer is used as a picture source, APA automatically optimises Phase, Pitch and Shift values. These can also be adjusted manually.
Auto Input Search
Auto Input Search detects which input has an incoming signal, and automatically switches to it. This makes it easier for users to set up the projector prior to making a presentation.
Picture Muting
If the picture needs to be turned off, all it takes is a single button-press on the remote control. This will mute audio at the same time. There is also a separate “mute audio” button for audio-only muting.
Audio switcher facility
To avoid the need for a separate audio switcher, the projector can be used to select between two audio sources, routing them via a variable audio output to the room amplification system.
Picture Freeze Function
Picture Freeze is useful during presentations if you need to look at other material on your PC’s screen without the viewing audience being aware. Freeze the current image, and you can use your PC independently of the display from the projector
Digital Zoom
With Digital Zoom, if you are displaying a computer-sourced image, you can enlarge a selected area of the screen image by up to four times.
Filter replaced at the same time as lamp
The filter only needs to be changed when a new lamp is fitted, potentially halving disruption due to maintenance.
Multiple Picture Modes
Has six picture modes (Dynamic, Standard, Game, Living, Cinema and Presentation) that can be selected to suite the nature of the source material.
Built-in security measures
A package of security measures, including password protection, and physical anti-theft anchor points.
Off and Go
At the end of a presentation, you can turn off the power supply to the projector immediately, instead of going through a “power down” cycle.
Direct Power On/Off
With this function, there is no need to go through “Standby” mode when powering up the projector. The projector can be set to activate as soon as power is applied.
