Broadening the appeal for compact, high-performance, portable
front projectors, Sony Electronics today announced the expansion
of the Sony Cineza projector line, unveiling
the VPL-HS10 and VPL-HS2 home theater projector models.
The new projectors incorporate proprietary LCD technology
that offers high contrast ratio, enhanced brightness, improved
detail with rich colors, as well as the popular SideShot™
feature. The two new portable projectors offer simple set-up
and ease of use, provide great value and larger screen entertainment
for consumer home entertainment applications.
"With our new Cineza LCD-based front projectors, consumers
can now enjoy a large, theater-like experience at home without
an elaborate custom installation, " said Tim Alessi,
director of marketing for Sony Electronics' Visual Network
Products Company. "These new models offer the best of
both worlds, strong performance and a terrific value that
lends itself to portable applications for an exceptional home
theater entertainment experience."
Leading the line-up is the VPL-HS10 model, which offers brilliant
performance and can be used on a tabletop or ceiling mounted
for screen size of 40- to 300-inches. It incorporates a Wide
XGA LCD panel with 1366 x 768 resolution, 1200 ANSI lumens
and a 700:1 contrast ratio.
In addition to its outstanding contrast ratio, the VPL-HS10
projector incorporates CineMotion™ reverse 3:2 pull-down
technology, and a DVI-HDTV connection that enables copy-protected,
high-definition video content to be delivered from a DVI/HDCP
(High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) compatible set-top
box, such as Sony's SAT-HD200 HD/DIRECTV receiver.
Numerous inputs allow for home theater content to be delivered
from such video sources as HDTV sets, VCRs, and standard and
progressive-scan DVD players. It also includes a Memory Stick®
media slot for convenient viewing of favorite JPEG images.
In addition, the new projector can be connected to a computer
using an optional cable.
The VPL-HS10 home entertainment projector features the SideShot2
digital keystone correction, offering maximum room placement
flexibility. It conveniently allows users to place the projector
on an angle to the screen, yet still project clear images
that are centered on the screen. This second-generation feature
expands the correctable area by simultaneously adjusting the
image both horizontally and vertically for more accurate,
centered correction. It can also help save valuable space
front-and-center of the room for viewers.
Created for those with limited space (40- to 150-inch screen
size) or the need for informal home entertainment for watching
movies, playing video games or showing homemade video, the
entry- level VPL-HS2 model integrates a wide VGA LCD panel
(854 x 480 resolution), 1000 ANSI lumens and a 600:1 contrast
ratio.
Both the VPL-HS10 and VPL-HS2 models will be available this
fall for about $3,000 and $1,800, respectively.
In addition to the two Cineza projectors, Sony offers a reference
standard LCD projector, the VPL-VW12 model, for a complete
line of front projectors that meet a variety of entertainment,
lifestyle and home theater applications. The VPL-VW12 model
is available now for about $6,500.
