Introduction

The Vidikron Vision™ Model 65 and Model 75 have been engineered for the top quality

1080p picture performance and installation flexibility heretofore associated with projectors costing far more.

The Vision 65/75's 1920 x 1080 native resolution DLP™ light engine features state-of-the-art technology for bright, pristine, high-definition images at today’s highest available resolution.

Contrast ratio and dynamic range extend to new heights with Vidikron's exclusive V² Aperture Control™ (VAC), an electronically-controlled iris system. The Vision Model 75 takes this technology a step further with DynamicBlack™, which analyzes the program material and adjusts the iris automatically, in real time to maximize contrast and dynamic range at all times.

The standard Vision 65/75 is equipped with a precision optics package offering zoom, focus and lens shift controls and a throw range of 1.88:1 to 2.19:1.

The Vision 65/75's illumination system incorporates Vidikron's exclusive DualV Stage Illumination™ (DVSI™), which provides two light intensity levels to allow maximum flexibility for screen size, ambient light conditions, brightness and contrast balance, and lamp life preservation. It also has a newly refined cooling system, which increases efficiency and reduces noise levels.

The Vision 65/75 has been engineered to comply with Imaging Science Foundation™ (ISF) standards for maximum home theater image quality. Vidikron's sophisticated parameters for white balance and color gamut control have also been implemented for precise balance of gray scale and color. The Vision 65/75 incorporates Vidikron-proprietary de-interlacing technology that provides exceptional scaling and film-to-video (3:2 pull-down) conversion for the most artifact-free images possible.

For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope” (2.35:1) format, the Vision 65/75 can be equipped with Vidikron’s patent-pending CineWide technology, a combination of software, electronics and high-quality anamorphic optics. CineWide maintains constant vertical height on the screen just as in a movie theater. When a viewer transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to 2.35:1, the image simply gets wider while full height is maintained. Also available with the Vision 65/75 is CineWide with AutoScope, an enhanced, remote-controlled version of CineWide.

CineWide requires the use of a 2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide format

Note screen.
