High-quality Images
✜
Extremely High Resolution (2K x 1K or WXGA)
in Widescreen
With a 2K x 1K LCD panel incorporated, the VPL-FH300L
projects extremely clear and detailed high-quality
images with a 2K X 1K (2048 x 1080)* resolution, even on
a large widescreen. While the VPL-FW300L offers WXGA
(1366 x 800) resolution for high-quality widescreen
images.
*2K X 1K (2048 x 1080) signals supplied to the VPL-FH300L are converted
to 2046 x 1080 signals by removing one vertical line from each side, and
then processed and displayed as a 2K x 1K image.
✜
Outstanding Brightness (6000 or 7000 Lumens)
From BrightEra LCD Panel and Dual-lamp
System
The VPL-FH300L and VPL-FW300L Data Projectors
achieve an outstanding brightness of 6000 and 7000
lumens, respectively. This allows for dynamic,
large-screen presentations even in high ambient lighting
environments. By combining a new generation of
inorganic LCD panels that utilize Sony's BrightEra
technology with a powerful dual-lamp system, these
projectors offer both brilliant pictures and stable
operations.
BrightEra Technology
BrightEra is a brand name for the category of next-generation
LCD panels that have pixels with large aperture ratios and that
adopt inorganic alignment films. Sony is the first manufacturer
to succeed in developing this technology for a High-
Temperature Polysilicon (HTPS) TFT LCD panel.

Dual-lamp System
The VPL-FH300L and VPL-FW300L adopt a unique lamp system
that uses two lamps for reliable, flexible, and efficient use of
light sources. In dual-lamp mode, the VPL-FH300L and
VPL-FW300L offer a maximum brightness of 6000 and 7000
lumens, respectively. In single-lamp mode, users can select
either of the two lamps manually, or the projector can
automatically select a lamp based on each lamp's operating
time.
In addition, the dual-lamp system enables virtually
fail-safe operations. In dual-lamp mode, if one bulb burns out,
the other can keep projecting images. In single-lamp plus
auto-lamp-select mode, if one bulb burns out, the other
automatically lights up to keep projecting images.
✜
3LCD Projection System
Because the VPL-FH300L and VPL-FW300L adopt a
3LCD projection system, projected images are bright
and natural. 3LCD is a projection system using three
LCD panels. This system provides high light transmission
and excellent color reproduction. It also provides
smooth gradients in dark areas, and even helps
prevent color breakup.
✜
Dynamic Detail Enhancer (DDE) for
High-quality Video Images
This unique video-enhancing technology from Sony
that is incorporated in the VPL-FH300L and VPL-FW300L
generates high-quality images of outstanding clarity.
For interlaced video sources, I/P (Interlace/Progressive)
conversion is applied to the signals to project clear
and sharp progressive images. When displaying film-
originated sources, signals converted by 2-3/2-2 pull
down are detected, and each frame of the original
film is accurately reproduced.
✜
12-bit 3D Gamma Correction and
3D Digital Comb Filter
The VPL-FH300L and VPL-FW300L incorporate 12-bit 3D
Gamma Correction circuitry to perform highly
accurate gamma correction, achieving uniform image
color and brightness that extends light to the corners of
the screen. What's more, the 3D Digital Comb Filter
separates Y signals from C signals with great accuracy,
which emphasizes fine images and shape boundaries.
