VERTICAL DIGITAL

KEYSTONE CORRECTION

Absolutely essential for portable projec-
tors, Digital Keystone Correction reduces
image distortion by allowing for vertical
correction to create a more natural-
looking picture even when it is difficult to
set up the unit perfectly perpendicular
with the screen. This important feature
allows you to project at an angle without
worrying about trapezoid image distor-
tion or zigzagging.

Vertical 

distortion

No distortion

NATURAL COLOR 

MATRIX (NCM)

The XL5U produces vivid colors that 
precisely match their real-life counter-
parts, as well as giving you the ability to
precisely adjust color saturation and 
control color tones.
