FeaturesHigh brightness, high picture quality•High brightness

This projector is equipped with a high- efficiency optical system made possible by adopting Sony’s new proprietary optical system. Because the VPL-PX40 utilizes a newly developed high N.A. LCD panel with a microlens and a 265W UHP lamp, it can reproduce bright images at 3500 ANSI lumens, while the VPL-PX35 with no microlens can reproduce bright images at 2600 ANSI lumens.

•High resolution

Three 0.99-inch, about 790,000 pixel,

XGA panels provide a resolution of 1024 ⋅ 768 dots for RGB input and 750 horizontal TV lines for video input.

Easy Setup

•Permits setup on a front-to-back slope This projector can be set up on a slope of up to 90 degrees up or down. The projector also permits rear projection using a mirror.

•Optional lenses

The projector can be adapted to a variety of different types of installations by using one of three lenses (sold separately), two with a short focus and one with a long focus.

•Direct Power On/Power Off function The AC power for the entire system can be turned on and off by means of a breaker or other switch.

•System expandability (network compatibility)

In addition to conventional serial control using an RS-232C connector, this projector also supports connection to an network environment through an Ethernet connector. This function can be used to control multiple projectors and also makes it possible to acquire status information from each projector, such as the length of time the lamp has been on.
