High Picture Quality and Bright Images
The VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 incorporate three high aperture
0.63-inch LCD Panels, offering native XGA (1024 x 768)
and SVGA (800 x 600) resolution, respectively. A
brightness level of 2100 (VPL-EX4) and 2200 (VPL-ES4)
lumens is achieved resulting from the combination of a
highly efficient optical system and a 165W lamp.
3LCD Projection System
Because the VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 use a 3LCD projection
system, projected images are bright and natural. 3LCD is a
projection system using three LCD panels (also known as
high-temperature polysilicon or HTPS). This system provides
high light transmission and excellent color reproduction. It
also provides smooth gradients in dark areas, and even
helps prevent color breakup.
Short Projection Distance
The VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 come equipped with a short
focal-length lens, which makes it possible to project
images from a short distance. For example, an 80-inch
image
*1
can be projected from a distance of
approximately 7-1/2 feet (2.3 meters).
Quiet Operation (Low Fan Noise)
Both the VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 have a very low fan noise
allowing audiences to concentrate on the speaker
during presentations.
Quick Start
Approximately four seconds
*2
after power is applied to
the VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4, the projector's “start up image”
is displayed and your presentation appears shortly
thereafter.
High-Security (Control Panel Key Lock, Password
Authentication System, Security Bar, and
Kensington Lock)
Both the VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 have a control panel key
lock and a password authentication system to help
prevent unauthorized use of the projector. Also, a built-in
security bar or Kensington
®
lock can be used to help
prevent theft.
FEATURES
Useful Remote Commander Unit
The supplied card-type Remote Commander unit can
be used to adjust the VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 projector
settings such as digital zoom and audio volume or to
activate APA, picture muting, and picture freeze
functions. Also, because IR receivers are located on
both the front and rear of the projector, the Remote
Commander unit is effective from almost anywhere in
the room.
Input Flexibility
(Multiscan Converter)
The VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 accept a wide variety of video
input signals from standard definition (SD) to high
definition (HD), including composite, S-Video (Y/C), and
analog RGB/component via the HD D-sub 15 pin
interfaces.

In addition, the unit can accept computer
signals from VGA up to SXGA+ (1400 x 1050).

The VPL-ES4 has one D-sub 15 pin interface supporting both
RGB and component signals. The VPL-EX4 has two D-sub 15
pin interfaces; however, only one supports both RGB and
component signals, while the other supports RGB only.
