VPL-DS100 – The Smart Choice for Impressive Mobile Presentations

As the newest player in Sony's line of Ultra- compact Projectors, the economical VPL- DS100 packs a high quality projection system in a stylish and compact body. It achieves a high-brightness of 1200 ANSI lumens* and a native SVGA resolution (800 X 600) by use of a newly developed 0.62-inch LCD panel. The design of the new VPL-DS100 puts maximum emphasis on simple operation. At the touch of the power button, the Intelligent Auto Setup Function sets up the projector in an instant, allowing presenters to immediately get started at any customer site. And with its smart appearance, the VPL-DS100 will ultimately match any business style.

*ANSI lumen is a standard measuring method of the American National Standards Institute IT7.228. Since there is no uniform method of measuring brightness, specifications will vary among manufacturers.

FEATURES

High Brightness and High Resolution

The VPL-DS100 employs a new 0.62-inch, super-bright LCD panel that offers native SVGA (800 x 600) resolution. This advanced LCD panel, combined with Sony original optical technology and a bright 185W elliptic reflector lamp, allows the VPL-DS100 to achieve a high brightness of 1200 ANSI lumens. Brilliant images are projected from the ultracompact body for impressive presentations.

Short Throwing Distance (100 inch @ 9.5 feet)

The VPL-DS100 comes equipped with a short focal-length lens with a focal length of 18.0- 21.6mm. This enables a large screen size from a very short throwing distance. A 100-inch projection size (viewable area, measured diagonally) is achieved at a throwing distance of only 9.5 feet. This capability becomes an invaluable feature when room space is limited but presentations must still be dynamic.

Ultra Compact and Light Weight

Compact in size and merely 6 lbs., 3 oz. (2.8 kg) in weight, the VPL-DS100 can be carried anywhere with its supplied soft case.

Flat and Simple Design

To achieve a clean and simple design, only a few buttons and connectors are located on the top and sides of the projector. Connectors that are not frequently used are concealed with a cover. Therefore, the VPL-DS100 will keep a smart appearance even while being used.
