Sony has announced the latest addition to its range of BRAVIA high definition projectors. The VPL-HW10 features a new design, triple-panel Sony SXRD, and 8-stage image processing with BRAVIA ENGINE 2 technology.
Silicon X-tal Reflective Display (SXRD) technology creates a fine-grained image and should eliminate the screen door effect. It also has a 2.5ms response time, reducing the risk of ghosting and other problems in fast moving scenes.
The projector features an All Range Crisp Focus lens with 1.6x manual zoom, and vertical and horizontal adjustment. It has a contrast ratio of 30,000:1 thanks to Advanced Iris 2 contrast enhancement, and supports x.v.Colour.
Two HDMI inputs both support 24p True Cinema mode, and the projector also has BRAVIA Sync built in. The VPL-HW10 runs at 22dB in normal operation.
Exact availability and pricing to be confirmed. Sony will also launch a "bigger brother" to the VPL-HW10 in due course.
