Sony’s Bravia 7 Projector Promises More Brightness, Better Contrast

Sony, known as VPL-XW5100ES, announced 7 of the Bravia projector 7 and joined the projector 8 and 9 in the current staff. The new projector replaces VPL-XW5000ES and uses SIX, SONY LCOS (Liquid crystal in silicone) Option that promises better contrast ratios than more common DLP and LCD chips.

The latest Sony Projector we have reviewed, Vpl-vw325eshad the best contrast proportion we measured for years. This new PJ is a fairly safe assumption that it will be better. In the new projector 7, 2,200 alleged lumens and potentially have a laser light source for better color.

In addition, the laser light source will quickly blacken with dark scenes that offer more effective black levels. Black levels do not have a problem with SXRD projectors in the past. Thanks to the laser, which combines the strong local contrast of the SCRD with a dynamic contrast, should look beautiful in 7 dark rooms.

It was a problem with brightness, historically, Sony projectors. Both DLP and LCD projectors, who could not compete with LCO (or Sony or JVC forms), but went for higher brightness. Us Recently looked at several projectors With more than 3,000 rated lumens. Although they are always measured, they are still effective. Lumen claimed by the projector 7’s 2,200, must be adequate for special home theaters.

For comparison, one of the best-looking projectors I recently review is a short shot Benq x500iHe also rated for 2,200 lents, but puts 911 measured. I measured 1,136 Lumen with 1,136 lumen with 325es. Thus, if there is a similar ratio of a projector as 325es, it will be brighter than a very bright X500I.

In terms of the contrast ratio, I measured a surprising 8.327: 1 in the old Sony. Beng X500i was one of the best in recent years, and still it was still in 325es, 190: 1. In the last few years, the average contrast ratio for projectors we measured in CNET is 854: 1. Although 7 of these projectors are more expensive than both of these projectors, its contrast should be greater than its influence.

A slightly controversial, a slightly controversial feature: “CinemasCopope screens are complicated between 2.35: 1 and 16, between the 9th, how it reads, projector 2.35: 1 will end the contents to adapt to the screen. Sown is bad. Plant. I prefer a motorized lens with a pre-targeted target. In this way, you can follow the type of both content correctly, as you can adapt that it is correct, 2.35: 1. What you have to do is push a button. As long as the projector has a zoom range, manual adjustment is good.

There is still no price, but the projector is $ 16,000 and VPL-XW5000 is $ 6,000, so there should be somewhere between the two.
