brightness (color light output), and Epson 3LCD
projectors have 3x Brighter Colors than leading
competitive projectors.

One brightness measurement (lumens) is not
enough. A projector’s specification needs to
show both high color brightness and high white
brightness. If color brightness is lower than white
brightness, images may be dark, dull and lose
detail. If not provided, be sure to ask for a
projector’s color brightness specification.
