WXGA (1280 x 800) 16:10 display resolution gives plenty of crisp detail: ideal for making presentations direct from a laptop, mobile device or DVD player.

Energy efficient with long-lasting lamp life up to 10,000 hours
High-performance lamp technology offers reduced ownership costs plus reduced maintenance, with a recommended lamp replacement time of approx. 10,000 hours (with brightness in low mode - may vary depending on environment or how the projector is used).
Advanced energy-saving features

Auto Picture Mode automatically adjusts light output to suit the projected scene. Touching a button on the remote mutes the picture temporarily, dramatically reducing power consumption.

Customised input naming labels
Define your own input labels like 'BD Player', 'PC' and 'Document Camera', making it easier to see on screen what devices are connected and being used.
