When image is everything…
The Vista S5 is the embodiment of Christie Digital’s unrivalled image
technology and the most advanced optical systems available today.
The Vista S5 promotes the highest-level of image performance and is the
flagship of the Christie Digital System’s Vista range.
The Vista S5 is driven by a refined 1200W Xenon CERMAX‚ illumination
system, capable of delivering 5000 ANSI lumens to produce intense and
well-defined images. The latest Digital Light Processing technology, a
3-chip DMD set with true SXGA resolution, combines with the illumination
system to stunning effect.
The culmination of more than 20 years experience designing and
manufacturing visual display solutions for fixed installations, has led
Christie Digital Systems to design a solution that encapsulates all the
requirements of a projection system to meet today’s presentation
demands.
The S5 provides pixel format input capability with independent horizontal
and vertical scaling and is supported by a comprehensive suite of fixed
short-throw and zoom lenses, enabling you to place the image perfectly
on the screen.
Users of Vista projection systems also enjoy class-leading connectivity
and compatibility, accommodating the widest array of analogue and
digital sources. This provides the presenter with the opportunity to utilise a
variety of different media and guarantees a memorable presentation.
The S5 is compact and lightweight, just 88lbs for such a powerful and
sophisticated system. Yet operating the system is simple, on-screen
display menus and an intuitive "Direct Access" offer you full control of the
image you project and on-screen help menus are on hand should you
need it. With up to 100 channel memories and automatic power-up and
set-up features you really can begin your presentation with just the touch
of a button.
The Vista S5, perfect performance, flexible and failsafe because image is
everything.
