HC5000
HIGH DEFINITION HOME THEATER PROJECTOR
1080P Full HD
(OPTIONAL WHITE CABINET)

High Definition (1920x1080)
Equipped with the latest of
new generation liquid crystal
panel (C2 Fine™)*
The C2 Fine™ new-generation LCD panel
with inorganic orientation film shows
the richest blacks and vividly colored, high
definition images over a longer period
because the life of the inorganic orientation
film in the new C2 Fine panels is rated to
last approximately 10 times longer than
conventional organic orientation film. That
translates to years of pure HD enjoyment
with colors that stay vibrant and high-definition
images that come alive every time you play
your movies.
*C2 Fine™ is a trademark of Seiko Epson.
C2 Fine™ (normally black)
When no voltage is applied,
the liquid crystals line up
vertically on the glass
substrate, eliminating light
leakage usually found in
conventional LCD systems.
This allows the HC5000 to
project richer blacks and
deeper contrast.
.
Powered zoom and focus adjustments with lens
shift function greatly enhances ease of set-up
Impressive big-screen images can be enjoyed even in a small
room with the 1.6x powered zoom and focus lens built into every
HC5000. You can project a 100-inch diagonal (16:9) picture at
just 10 feet away. In addition, the motorized lens shift simplifies
vertical and horizontal adjustments, providing maximum flexibility
wherever you place the HC5000 projector.
Extra-low dispersion glass lenses showcases high-definition
resolution in all its glory
The HC5000 is built with a lens system comprised of 17 elements in 14 groups,
including three extra-low dispersion glass lenses, which deliver higher performance
than conventional lenses. This lens system dramatically improves chromatic
aberration and peripheral focus.
With the Mitsubishi original auto-iris in place,
high contrast soars to a maximum of 10,000:1
The auto-iris function automatically controls the level of light projection, tuned
to the specific bright and dark spots in the picture being displayed. To comple-
ment conventional detection from brightness data, Mitsubishi has added its
original color information recognition feature, resulting in more vivid color
reproduction, even in darker scenes.
Conventional system
(normally white)
Even with voltage applied,
liquid crystals don’t usually
fall into perfectly vertical
lines on the glass substrate,
and light leakage occurs.

19 dBA* at Low Mode makes HC5000 the Quietest
Projector in its Class
We’ve revamped the cooling structure and mounted a new whisper-quiet
fan. The result is an impressively silent 19dBA operation, and we rewrite the
new standard on projector fan noise.
Equipped with Side-Loading 5000-hour* Long-Life Lamp
Improved temperature control plus Mitsubishi Electric's unique lighting tim-
ing extends the useful life of the HC5000 lamp to a maximum of 5000
hours. The side-loading design also offers maximum convenience during
lamp replacement.
* Maximum of 5000 hours at low mode and 2000 hours at standard mode. Lamp
life is defined as the average time until brightness is reduced by half; it is not a
guaranteed life for all lamps. Lamp-life will vary considerably depending on usage
environment and conditions, and whether regular maintenance such as cleaning
and proper cooling is performed.

HDMI™ Support
The HC5000 simplifies connections to all DVD players or other digital equip-
ment. Savor the move to full digital transmissions and enjoy visual pleasures
free of picture degradation from AD/DA conversion.
Illuminated Handheld Remote Control Unit
With a backlit remote control, the button portion illuminates
for easy operation even in darkened rooms. Picture
adjustments, AV memory and other convenient feature
can be accessed with a simple touch.
12-Volt Trigger Terminal
The HC5000 is designed with a screen trigger that links its power
switch to a motorized screen. Detailed in the pursuit of user-friendliness
and the ability to start the show at a finger’s touch.
Dust protection for the LCD panel
To prevent dust from adhering to the LCD panel, the LCD block
inside the HC5000 is equipped with a dust protection cover.
Unparalleled HQV™ next generation performance
Mitsubishi’s HC5000 is simple and easy to use
High-performance video scaler
In addition to I/P conversion, the Reon-VX in the Mitsubishi HC5000 packs
high-precision image scaling (pixel conversion) capabilities into a single chip.
The result is impressive up-conversion of 720 X 480 display to 1920 X 1080
images.
Reduced chroma up-sampling errors
With the Reon-VX chip, HC5000 properly compensates for color data
compressed at the production level of most DVD titles. This results in a
more faithful reproduction of high-definition images without color blur
or loss, including subtle contours.
Full 10-bit 4:4:4
Identical to broadcast-use Masters, the HC5000’s 10-bit signal processing is
an ideal level, which allows gradations to grow richer, and colors more
numerous than general 8-bit types, thus setting a new standard in repro-
duction expression.
HQV™ noise reduction for crystal clear image reproduction
The HQV™ in the HC5000 has a new function to measure noise and move-
ment by pixel units. Analog and image compression noise, typical elements
that
affect picture quality in damaged DVD titles and broadcast content, are
detected and reduced.
Reon-VX next-generation high-performance processor
This high-performance chip carries on the legacy of the REALTA made
popular by Silicon Optics, whose known for visual performance using
the name HQV™ (Hollywood Quality Video). It excels behind the scenes
as the genuine core of fine visual expression in our HC5000 HD projector.
High-precision I/P conversion, serving all sources
With 10-bit image processing, I/P (interlace/progressive) conversion in
the HC5000 is rendered extremely accurate. Even with video-film mixed
sources, specific materials are detected and processed with top speed
and precision. This ensures progressive reproduction of higher picture
quality. For terrestrial or satellite digital movies broadcasts, 2-3 pull-down
zaps out most jaggies, making the image look perfect. High-precision
3D processing and 24P new generation discs are also supported.
•Reon-VX TRNR
Use of a pixel unit movement
adapted type time axis filter
steers clear of artificial appear-
ance and bugs that accompany
conventional noise filters.
With no unnecessary noise
processing on moving pixels,
it is possible to reproduce
the high-definition details.
MNR/BAR
This is the state of the art in
HQV™ noise reduction tech-
nology. Shuts down mosquito
noise, block noise and other
noise caused by the excessive
image compression typically
seen in DVD titles, satellite
broadcasts, cable broadcasts
and terrestrial broadcast content.
With striking contours and
smooth gradation, images are
reproduced in startling clarity.
