Spectacular Full HD pictures with Advanced Reality Creation

Advanced SXRD^® panel technology is teamed with Advanced Reality Creation - Sony's Super Resolution processing technology that refines subtle details, colors and textures. You'll see the difference with crisp, sharp Full HD pictures that take you closer than ever to the original 1080p source.

High brightness and high contrast ratio

With an impressive 1,800 lumens brightness and high contrast ratio, Full HD images are clear and with bright highlights and rich, deep blacks – even in well-lit rooms.

Smooth, fluid on-screen action

Coupled with the panel's super-fast response rate, Motionflow™ technology means you'll see every detail with minimal blur - no matter how fast the action.

Long-lasting lamp

Up to 6000 hour3 rated lamp operating life (in Low mode) means simpler maintenance, with fewer lamp swaps and reduced running costs.

Flexible home installation with wide zoom and shift lens

The manual zoom lens with a 1.6x zoom ratio and wide lens shift range gives greater installation flexibility in any room size, even with high ceilings.

Industry standard RF 3D compatible
The projector's built-in RF transmitter synchronizes with compatible Sony and 3rd party RF 3D glasses for wider coverage and greater stability, so there's no need for an external transmitter.

Cinema-like 3D brightness
Sony's dynamic lamp control technology and rechargeable 3D glasses work together perfectly to establish vibrant, cinema-quality brightness levels on your favorite 3D movies and shows.1.

Whisper-quiet fan
Forget that the projector is even in the room due to the advanced air discharge system. Sony's whisper-quiet fan emits only 22db during show time.

Powerful picture calibration features
Quickly calibrate your picture to the type of content you're enjoying with nine unique modes including a variety of cinema, gaming, photo and user customizable pre-sets.

USB updates
You're always up to date with the latest features and firmware updates via the projector's USB port.

Three-year limited warranty
All Sony Elevated Standard (ES) projectors enjoy three-year limited warranties.

Front-facing fan

With the fan exhaust positioned at the front of the projector, you don't need to worry about wall clearance and room for air intake/exhaust when installing. This helps maximize throw distance, for the biggest possible projected images.
