ANSI Contrast

ANSI Contrast† is a way of measuring the true “real world” contrast performance you can expect from a projector. Only ANSI contrast has a documented, reproducible procedure that can be used to compare the performance of projectors using different display technologies. With an ANSI contrast ratio significantly (in some cases 2-3 times) higher than projectors using other technologies, DLP® is the only choice for Home Cinema purists that expect the ultimate image fidelity in their home.

24P

Most movies are shot at 24 frames per second.

To preserve the purity of the original image the HD20		24
can accept High Definition sources at 24 frames		FPS
per second and so to display movies exactly as the
director intended.
Optoma guarantees colour quality will
remain as new for 5 years*
For Home Cinema colour accuracy	is critical.	5
We are so confident that, unlike	competing

technologies, the HD20 colour will not change in use that we have guaranteed it will stay the same as the day you bought it, for at least 5 years.

The HD20 projector based on an all-digital DLP® chip delivers stunning picture quality again and again. Unlike competing analogue technologies, the semiconductor that makes DLP® projection possible is virtually immune to environmental factors that can cause an image to degrade over time.

*Optoma guarantees that in normal use, Optoma DLP® colour quality will be indistinguishable from when new. Please note that worn lamps will give slight variance. Exclusions: *(a) Guarantee is voided if the projector is subject to damage through mis-use. (b) Guarantee may be void in industrial or commercial entertainment environments where dust or smoke is particularly excessive (c) Guarantee will not apply if lamp brightness is below 50% due to wear or if the projector is not working due to other fault. † “ANSI Contrast” is a recognised contrast measurement technique as described in the standard IEC 61947-1 1Brightness and lamp lifetime will vary depending on selected projector mode, environmental conditions and usage. As is common with all lamp based projectors, brightness will decrease over the lamp lifetime. 2Typical lamp life achieved through testing. Will vary according to operational use and environmental conditions.
