Outstanding Features

1.High Color Purity and Broad Dynamic Range Due to Advanced Optical Engine

•Newly developed 12° DMD™ chip provides significantly improved opti- cal efficiency and excellent contrast ratio.

•Newly developed DDR (Double Data Rate) chip eliminates Color Break- ing phenomena common with previous generation DLP™ projectors.

•Superior image quality with Minolta™ optical lens system.

•Use of 270 W high-output lamp realizes both high color purity and high brightness. Natural images made possible by high color reproducibility can be created with high-brightness, powerful expression capabilities.

2.Advanced Computer & Video lntegrated Composer Technology

•Realizes vivid images using the latest image quality circuitry.

•New I/P conversion algorithm enhances the performance of the motion detect I/P conversion.

Extensive improvements on the jagged edges or slanted lines in moving images.

•New Edge Up-Scaling

As a result of reducing jaggies and flickering when up-scaling edges of slanted lines, even signals not reaching a panel resolution of 480I/P can be projected by converting to 720P high-definition images.

•New Film Mode Function

Three-two pull down enhancement for not only 480I and 576I signals, but HDTV 1080I signals as well.

•Noise Reduction

Allows for a clear image even with noisy source signals.

•Contrast Control Dynamic Gamma

Improved contrast and natural color gradation by minimizing hue change.

•Color Management System

Color Management System that freely adjusts only specific hues of RGBCMY enables easy adjust- ment of only specific locations of an image without affecting other portions of the image.

•Gamma Adjustment Function

Gamma Adjustment Function adds adjustments to each RGB gamma curve for finer image adjustment.

3.Low Noise Design

A new optical engine has been developed for this product resulting in minimized fan noise for undisturbed viewing.

4. All Digital Projection

Use of a DVI/HDCP terminal enables all processes from input to signal processing and projection to be performed digitally, resulting in the realization of all-digital projection without any data loss due to analog conver- sion. This also supports the building of home theaters using HTPC*.

*Abbreviation for Home Theater Personal Computer that enables high-definition DVD playback using a personal computer.
