UNIQUE FEATURES
STANDARD FEATURES
Intelligent Eco Mode
Automatically changes the brightness of the lamp according
to the brightness level of the screen. Using ImageCare
technology, these features give optimal picture performance
with maximum energy savings.
ImageCare Technology
ImageCare is a lamp power control function that combines
optimal picture performance with maximum energy savings
by decreasing energy usage, improving contrast ratio and
lengthening lamp life. The result is a lower total cost of
ownership and decreased maintenance cost.
3,000 ANSI Lumens Light Output
The light output specification measures the brightness of light
output and with 3,000 ANSI lumens the result is bright, clear,
true to life images with incredible detail.
LIGHT OUTPUT
3000
2500:1 Contrast Ratio
Contrast can be automatically controlled through an active iris
to add depth perspective during both bright and dark scenes.
HDMI Input (HDCP)
Digital connectivity allows for highest image quality from your
HD device. Compliancy with HDCP.
6,000 Hour Lamp Life (Eco mode)*
Another key to low total cost of ownership is a long life lamp.
The lamp is rated at 4,500 hours in standard mode and 6,000
hours in Eco mode.
Power Saving Standby Mode
Power saving mode reduces the standby power consumption
to less than 0.5W.
Easy Maintenance
Easy maintenance is another attractive function, as the lamp
door is on top of the model.
