Sony Vpl-bw7 User manual

This HD Ready home cinema projector has been designed for use in brightly

lit environments, so you don’t need to dim the lights for a home cinema

experience. The VPL- BW7 incorporates BrightEra™ technology invented by Sony

which minimises degradation of colours over time, achieves higher brightness

and sharper images in even well-lit rooms - and delivers exceptional reliability

and longevity.

This projector is perfect for families wanting to watch a movie together, or other

leisure pursuits such as gaming and viewing sport on a big screen. It features

native WXGA (1280x800) resolution, making it ideal for true 16:9 widescreen

display of film and video in stunning colour and exceptional detail, direct from

a Blu-ray player, set-top box, games console or PC.
