2,000 Lumens for Vibrant Images
With 2,000-ANSI-lumen brightness, the Sony VPL-VW1000es delivers nearly twice the output of Sony’s previous home cinema projectors. Combined with 4K SXRD panels, this projector is able to offer both higher brightness and a higher contrast ratio for optimum viewing in the home environment.
Remarkable Dynamic Contrast for Highest Picture Quality
The projector’s 4K native SXRD panels produce outstanding native device contrast, reproducing deep blacks by improving the flatness level of the pixel surface. When combined with Sony’s Advanced Iris3 technology, this projector can achieve an incredible 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast for the best ever images.
Richer Pictures with Wide Color Space (DCI, Adobe RGB)
The VPL-VW1000es offers a wider-than-normal color space, enabling it to show the fuller color information provided by the professional DCI color specification and the Adobe RGB color space.
Lens Optimized for 4K Images
To achieve optimized 4K images, Sony has developed the 4K All-Range Crisp Focus (ARC-F) lens specifically for the projector. By incorporating this super high-resolution lens, high precision and detail are seen in all corners of the image. Both Full HD SXRD projector lens technology from Sony and 4K digital cinema technology from Sony are included in the 4K ARC-F lens. In addition, this lens offers very high-resolution power, and the high-resolution image on the 4K panel can be projected correctly.
-
Structure - An 18-piece lens structure is used, similar to that of a 4K digital cinema projector.
-
Floating focus system - By moving the floating lens group and focusing lens group simultaneously, the floating focus system corrects any curved field occurring at the time of focal adjustment of images. Thanks to this system, high precision and high picture quality are realized in every corner of the image.
-
Extra low dispersion glass - By adopting extra low dispersion glass – which provides an optimized refractive index for green, red, and blue light – clear and crisp images can be achieved.
“Reality Creation” 4K Upscaling
In addition to supporting 4K native resolution, the projector features an exclusive super-resolution 4K upscaler, “Reality Creation”, which dramatically enhances high-definition 1080p content, allowing viewers to get the most from their existing Blu-ray Disc™ libraries at home. For greater versatility, it can also display Full HD 3D and 4K upscaling of 3D movies.
Widescreen Friendly
Delivers a widescreen-friendly resolution of 4096 x 2160 based on the DCI specification. This means viewers can enjoy movies without annoying black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.
Picture Position Memory Matches Movie Aspect Ratio
With a picture position memory, which memorizes the position of the lens (focus, zoom, shift). Users can match a movie’s aspect ratio, including 1.78:1 and 2.35:1, and store these settings in the projector for easy recall.
Immersive 4K Upscaling 3D
Improved emission power for built-in 3D transmitter. The projector has a built-in 3D transmitter to synchronies 3D glasses, which alleviates the need for a cable. The emission power of the transmitter has also been boosted by 30% compared to previous models, allowing much wider coverage of the 3D signal
2D to 3D conversion
Sony is leading the way in creating an ever-growing selection of movies, sports, and TV programs in 4K 3D detail. Sony’s 3D projectors also convert 2D pictures into 3D, so viewers can even enjoy classic movies in this whole new viewing dimension.
Simultaneous anamorphic and 3D viewing
Able to display anamorphic images and 3D without requiring a lens change, making it as user-friendly as possible.
Experience Blur-free Action with Motionflow
To bring the thrill of watching fast-paced, cinematic action to the home, it features a technology called Motionflow, which makes motion much smoother. This innovative process creates and inserts artificial frames, first comparing key visual factors on successive frames, and then calculating the split second of ‘missing’ action in the sequence. This action mimics that of actual movie projection, so viewers experience movies and sports with a greater sense of realism than ever before.
Powerful Picture Calibration
Powerful features include dark room and ambient room. Users can quickly select the right picture calibration for each type of content, with nine unique modes including a variety of pre-sets: cinema film1, cinema film2, cinema digital, reference, TV, photo, game, bright cinema, and bright TV.
Panel Alignment Function
To ensure the best possible results, all models feature electronic panel alignment, allowing the user to achieve an exact alignment of the red and blue elements within each pixel. Adjustments can be made by as little as 0.1 pixels to achieve optimum clarity.
Whisper-quiet Operation
Incorporates the latest noise-reduction technology, including a whisper-quiet fan, to minimize projector sound as much as possible.
Home Automation Interfaces and Accreditations
Comes with an RS232 interface, RJ45 control, dual triggers, IR-IN, and self-diagnosis capabilities (for checking lamp life, etc.). The projector is also compatible with many home automation integrators and has AMX, Control 4, and Crestron certification
