3) NEC Introduces New NP Projector Series
It is a
well-known fact that nothing is more damaging to a projector lamp than
turning it off too early during the cool-down phase. The new NP projectors
from NEC are now here to solve that problem. The NP1000 and NP2000 projectors
have a so-called “direct power-off function.” Thanks to a built-in energy
storage feature, the device is sufficiently ventilated even after being
separated from the outlet, protecting the lamp from damage. Impatient users
can thus disassemble the projector immediately after holding a presentation
without having to wait for the inconvenient cool-down phase. The NEC NP
projectors will replace the MT predecessor models. Especially well-suited for
permanent installation, these high-quality projectors offer numerous
convincing features, optimized presentation quality and improved operability.
The number of lenses, for example, was doubled from three to six. This
permits an image ratio of between 0.8 and 7.0:1, thus offering far more
flexible usage possibilities. The brightness of the NP1000 has been increased
by 300 ANSI lumens to 3,500, guaranteeing brilliant colours. More: http://www.de.nec.de/home.php/lang/ENG |

4) Mitsubishi’s HD4000 Projects without Dimming Lights
In late
March, Mitsubishi Electric has introduced a new certified HD-ready projector
with an excellent price-performance ratio, the HD4000. Thanks to its high
level of brightness and contrast, the versatile unit delivers optimum image
quality even without dimming lights. With its different individually
adjustable picture formats, the HD4000 can be used virtually anywhere. It is
not only a source of great entertainment at home, in restaurants and hotels;
it also ensures trouble-free presentations for customers or staff. Brightness
of 2,000 ANSI lumens and contrast ratio of 2,500:1 make the HD4000 the
perfect partner for home cinema, presentations or restaurants and hotels. The
projector features a DarkChip2, with DDP3020 signal processing and high-speed
LVDS, as well as BrilliantColor technology. This
improves the colour intensity throughout the spectrum and ensures
best-possible illumination of images and light density in the complementary
colours. Its HDMI input port and WXGA resolution of 1,280 x 768 pixels
guarantee state-of-the art projection in outstanding quality. More: http://www.mitsubishi-evs.de/en/home.asp 5) Toshiba: Wireless Projectors tw95 and tw100
