If the Lamp or Temp indicator still lights up after turning the power back on, please contact your dealer. See "Indicators" on page 61 for details.

Recognized for its exceptional image quality and advanced features, the MP730 offers a blend of functionality and ease of use, making it a popular choice among professionals and educators alike.

At the heart of the BenQ MP730 is its high brightness of 3000 ANSI lumens, which ensures vivid, detailed images even in well-lit rooms.

Coupled with a native XGA resolution (1024 x 768), the projector produces sharp and clear visuals, making it ideal for presentations, video conferencing, and educational uses.

The MP730 employs DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, which enhances the projector's color accuracy and reduces the risk of image distortion. This technology also contributes to the overall reliability of the projector, with a longer lifespan for the lamp, enabling extended operational periods without the need for frequent replacements.

User-friendliness is a core characteristic of the MP730. With features such as auto keystone correction, users can quickly adjust images for perfect alignment, while the built-in setup wizard simplifies initial configuration. The lightweight design of the MP730 also facilitates easy transportation, making it an excellent choice for traveling professionals or educators who need to move between different locations.

Moreover, the MP730 demonstrates an environmentally conscious design. Its energy-saving mode significantly reduces power consumption when the projector is idle, with features like the SmartEco technology optimally adjusting brightness to extend the life of the lamp while minimizing energy use.

In conclusion, the BenQ MP730 is a versatile projector packed with features that cater to the needs of business professionals and educators.
