System Advantages/Features
High 2000:1 Contrast Ratio
The SRX-R320 offers a high contrast ratio of more than
2000:1 through the use of Sony’s unique SXRD device. The
SXRD device itself achieves a contrast ratio of over 4000:1.
This stunning picture quality makes the SRX-R320 ideal for
applications in which dynamic range is essential.
The high contrast ratio has been achieved through two key
technologies – the ‘normally black mode’ system and an
extremely thin liquid crystal cell gap.
Xenon Lamp Provides Highly Bright
and Pure Light Source
The SRX-R320 provides a high brightness on a wide screen
using a Xenon lamp. A Xenon lamp provides pure, superb
color tonal reproduction essential to meeting the stringent
requirements of digital cinema. Xenon lamps, which
are designed for the SRX-R320 and available from lamp
manufacturers, satisfy the wide color range required for
digital cinema by dispersion at a very flat and wide light
spectrum.
Variety of High-quality Lenses
Three optional zoom lenses are available for the SRX-R320.
All lenses utilize very large image circles that contribute to
minimizing the optical vignetting that typically occurs on
projector lenses, and to obtaining the highest possible values
of MTF (Modulation Transfer Function). With these features,
the optical systems of the SRX-R320 have the capacity to
reproduce resolutions higher than 4K, which is necessary to
project 4K content exactly at 4K resolution. In addition, these
lenses are designed to minimize chromatic aberrations using
Sony’s accumulated technical knowledge.
Variety of Interfaces
The SRX-R320 supports a wide variety of signal formats including
the 12-bit X’Y’Z’ signal that is stipulated in the DCI specification.
10-bit 4:4:4 RGB and 10-bit 4:2:2 YPbPr signal formats are also
supported for playback of other alternative content.
n
Two channels of SRLV (Sony original multi-pin interface),
which are used for connection to the LMT-300 Media Block
(for 4K projection: 4K DCP).
n
A DVI (HDCP) interface that accepts DVI (HDCP) signals for
up to 2048 x 1080 at 60 FPS (for 2K projection).
n
A dual-link HD-SDI/DC-SDI input* that accepts any of the
following signals:
• For HD projection: SMPTE 372M dual-link HD-SDI (4:4:4), or
SMPTE 292M HD-SDI (4:2:2)
• For 2K projection: Dual-link DC-SDI (RGB 4:4:4), DC-SDI
(YPbPr 4:2:2), or 12-bit X’Y’Z’ signals (4:4:4)
* To support this input, the optional LKRI-003 board is required.
Available Xenon Lamps
Sony-recommended Xenon lamps for the SRX-R320 are
available from lamp manufacturers such as USHIO, OSRAM,
and PHILIPS. For detailed information on the lamps, please
contact your nearest Sony or lamp manufacturer’s office.
