VPL-HW50E
100,000:1 Dynamic Contrast
Thanks to contrast enhancer
technology and the Advanced Iris3
technology, the projector has a
dynamic contrast ratio of more than
100,000:1. It maximises black and
white levels without diminishing peak
brightness to ensure no detail is missed
in dark scenes.
Advanced Iris3 Control
This automatic Iris control feature
enhances the contrast in accordance
with the scene. It maximises black and
white levels without diminishing peak
brightness.
Dynamic Lamp Control
Technology for 3D
When each of the shutters on the 3D
glasses opens, Dynamic Lamp Control
Technology automatically boosts the
brightness (approximately 3x brighter)
in the image to that eye, maximising
the picture’s impact and the lamp’s
efficiency. This means that you will
not lose any brightness and attain the
optimal visual experience from the
comfort of your own home.
Built-in 3D Sync Transmitter
You can synchronise the projector
with the 3D glasses thanks to the 3D
synchronous transmitter built into the
front of the projector, thus reducing
set-up time and removing the need for
extra cabling.
Separate 2D and 3D Modes
The VPL-HW50ES allows you to pre-select
separate parameters for 2D and 3D
content under a variety of application
modes – Dynamic, Standard, Game,
Cinema and Photo – as well as
automatically recognising 2D or 3D input.
Extremely Low Fan Noise (21dB)
The VPL-HW50ES runs very quietly with an
advanced air discharge system. Through
a highly efficient cooling system, fan
noise is suppressed to a mere 21dB.
With whisper-quiet fan noise, you can
concentrate on a movie or game in a
quiet environment without distraction.
Gamma Adjustment Function
With 11 modes to select, it is possible to
fine tune image brightness according
to the room conditions or the screen
content.
Improved Lens Shift Range
The vertical range is wider than Sony’s
conventional models. This expands the
projector’s placement and installation
options without distorting image quality.
Vertical range: Max. +/- 0.71V
Horizontal range: Max.+/- 0.25H
Improved Panel Alignment
Function
The VPL-HW50ES is configured with a
function that compensates for gaps in
character or colour management. It is
possible to select R(Red) or B(Blue) to
make adjustments based on G(Green),
and to adjust the horizontal and vertical
direction by shifting the full image or
selecting zones of each colour.
RCP (Real Colour Processing)
Version 2
The VPL-HW50ES offers an “RCP (Real
Colour Processing)” function to adjust the
colour and hue of each target colour
of the projected picture independently.
Additionally, version 2 adds the ability to
adjust the brightness at the same time.
With this capability, you can tweak the
images to perfection.
