Digital Cinema Projectors
Digital Cinema Projector Series
NC2500S-A, NC1600C-A and NC800C projectors
Using DLP Cinema® technology from Texas Instruments®, NEC’s digital cinema projectors deliver
exceptional image quality, brightness, resolution, contrast and colorimetry. NEC’s award-winning
digital cinema projectors are designed with a focus on quality and ease-of-use for movie theatres of
all sizes: NC2500S-A for the largest cinema screens (up to 82-feet wide); NC1600C-A for medium-
sized screens up to 65-feet wide; and NC800C for small theatres, screening rooms and post-production
facilities with screen sizes up to 26-feet wide.
Why Digital?
°Reduced Costs - Eliminate costs of printing and distributing film
°Stunning Images - Deliver a truly accurate, life-like image with vibrant colors
°Unsurpassed Quality - Avoid deterioration issues from film reproduction
°Audience Satisfaction - Enhance viewing experience of audiences
°Positive Environmental Impact - Eliminate harsh chemicals and landfill associated with 35mm film prints
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
° High Resolution and Contrast - Achieve contrast ratios of 2000:1 or higher by using DMD chips
that support a resolution of 2048 x 1080. These projectors faithfully reproduce digital cinema and
high-definition input sources, as well as input sources requiring superior color reproduction and wide
gradation.
° One-Touch Operation and Memory Functions - Direct-select buttons for eight stored projector
configurations; world’s first memory functions for lens position and lamp output; simplify display of
different aspect ratios through pre-set lens shift position, zoom and focus, while maintaining constant
screen brightness.
° 3-D Presentation Using a Single Projector - Present 3-D content from a single projector, eliminating
the need for a costly second projector
° Auto Lamp Brightness Control - Minimize fluctuations that occur during the life of the lamp.
The brightness level will not decrease as the lamp is consumed. These projectors optimize lamp
performance and ensure the brightest and most uniform image possible for the life of the lamp.
° Trouble-Free Lamp Replacement - Technicians can replace lamps simply from the back of the
projector even in a cramped space
° Built-In Web Server - Access and control projectors from any authorized web browser
° Minimal Maintenance - Custom DMD shielding protects the projectors from dust, oil and smoke
° Optional Touchscreen Control - Conveniently control the projectors from an optional touchscreen
° Compatibility with Most Standard Film Projector Lamps - For maximum flexibility, exhibitors are able
to use compatible third-party film projector lamps with a lamp adapter available from NEC
(NC2500S-A & NC1600C-A)
° Convenient Carrying Handles - Built-in carrying handles for easy delivery and setup (NC1600C-A &
NC800C)
° Ease of Transport - Especially important in rental situations, transport these projectors without having
to remove the lamp bulb (NC1600C-A & NC800C)
° Compact Size - Quickly and easily adapt to every conceivable installation specification inside or outside
a projection booth (NC800C)
