Normal Mode DICOM Simulation Mode
Improved video with 3:2 and 2:2
pull-down options
3:2 pull-down creates 60 frames per second and 2:2 pull-down
creates 48 frames per second from 24 frames.
• 3:2 pull-down: The image is smoother.
• 2:2 pull-down: One frame length is the same as lm. It is ideal
for movies.
Test patterns
The PowerLite Pro G5950NL also features four test patterns for
precise setup, including detecting distortion; checking linearity,
color reproduction and bleeding; and DICOM simulation mode.
Standard Cross-hatch
Color Bars Grayscale
Full-featured performance
DICOM simulation mode
DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine) is a
standard for handling, storing, printing and transmitting medical
imaging information. The projector’s DICOM Simulation Mode
enables users to reproduce images with an advanced grayscale
level that simulates DICOM Part 14. This mode is ideal for viewing
grayscale medical images, such as X-rays, for training and
educational purposes.2
6-axis color adjustment
For special projection material such as high-quality photographs
or artwork, users can adjust the hue, saturation and brightness for
six colors: RGBCMY (Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow).

This innovative feature enables you to broadcast customized
images/alerts over the network for announcements or instructions.
Messages can be sent to up to 1024 projectors simultaneously
and will overwrite the current screen content if the projector is
being used, unless this function is disabled by the presenter. If the
projector is off, message broadcasting will turn the projector on
and then display the message.

Easy and flexible installations
Centered lens design
The PowerLite Pro G5950NL makes installation easy to plan
with lens-to-screen alignment. Installers can position the ceiling
mount, screen and projector independently of one another,
knowing that the center of the screen will align with the lens
at the center of the projector.
Five lens options
Remarkable placement flexibility with a 1.8x standard lens
(not included). For even greater flexibility, Epson offers a total
of ve lenses with varying ranges, including a rear-throw lens.
This allows users to choose the motorized lens most suited for
their environment. A quick-release lever allows for a quick,
easy lens exchange.
Off-axis, flexible installation
The PowerLite Pro G5950NL also features a ±30-degree tilt
operation for off-axis positioning flexibility. As a result, it can be
used for a wide range of applications, such as projecting on
angled surfaces. Epson technology keeps the projector running
without compromising performance or causing overheating.
Epson lens shift technology
In addition to added reliability and amazing color performance,
Epson’s industry-leading 3LCD technology enables this projector
to achieve a wide range of lens shift capabilities, allowing you to
install around obstacles. This lens shift technology enables an
incredible range of ±50 percent on the vertical axis and
±10 percent on the horizontal axis.

to move any of the four corners of an
image independently at setup, using the
remote control, for a perfectly rectangular picture.
