THE FEATHERWEIGHT ULTRAPORTABLE SVGA
PROJECTOR WITH SUPERIOR IMAGE QUALITY.
Image quality that’s the best in its class. Color
saturation that’s superior to its competitors. 850 bright
ANSI lumens to captivate your audience. All slipped
into a featherweight 9.4 pound package so slim it’ll fit
easily into an airplane overhead compartment. Add it all
up and you’ve got a pretty good idea why the EPSON
PowerLite®5550C is the ultraportable projector you’ll
want to add to your mobile presenting arsenal.
For starters, the PowerLite 5550C’s
revolutionary 3-LCD projection system produces
richer, more vibrant color and sharper, easier-to-read
black text than its single LCD or DLP system
counterparts. The result? You can count on audience-
captivating projection every time you present.
You’ll also find the PowerLite 5550C’s
color saturation better than that from single device
ultraportable projectors. And a more efficient 120W
lamp, combined with its improved LCD aperture ratio,
lets you project easy-viewing images under a wider
variety of lighting conditions.
Plus, the EPSON PowerLite 5550C is equipped
with Epson’s exclusive SizeWise™resizing technology. So
you can use it with XGA, SVGA and VGA computers. It
supports different power and video standards from
different countries. And, if you’re thinking of adding
music and sound effects to your presentations, you’ll
be happy to know the PowerLite 5550C comes with a
built-in SRS®3D stereo sound system.
Take a close look at the EPSON PowerLite
5550C and discover for yourself why it’s the
SVGA projector for the presenter
who demands the finest
in both projection
technology and
portability.
