FEATURES
3000 ANSI Lumens, Native XGA
(1024 x 768) Resolution
With an incredible brightness of 3000 ANSI lumens, 1 the VPL-CX85 is one of the brightest projectors in its class. This, coupled with the projector's native XGA (1024 x 768) resolution, provides outstanding image quality even in extremely high ambient-light conditions.
1ANSI lumen is a standard measuring method of the American National Standards Institute IT7.228. Since there is no uniform method of measuring brightness, specifications will vary among manufacturers.
Short Focal-Length Lens, Power Focus, Power Zoom
The short focal-length lens enables a large screen size from a short throwing distance. An 80-inch 2 image can be projected from a distance of only 2.4 meters. This feature is invaluable when room space is limited but dynamic presentations are required.

Transmission may slow or stop due to interference from devices such as microwave ovens, wireless medical equipment, or barriers. Animation effects and the slide show function in Microsoft PowerPoint® presentations can be used; however, transmission delays may occur if a large number of effects are performed at once or if several slides are turned at once. Wireless transmission should not be used with video. Applications that use DirectX® application programming interface may not be displayed properly.
