Sony VPL-XW7000ES/W

The Sony VPL-XW7000ES/W features SXRD display technology with native 4K UHD resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels, 16:9 aspect ratio) for crisp, razor sharp images. Strong optics are another feature of the XW7000ES with a 1.35-2.84:1 lens with 2.3x optical zoom as well as manual 85% vertical lens shift and 36% horizontal.

New features to the XW series is an all new Native 4K SXRD panel featuring a higher light relectance surface offering enhanced brightness and contrast to the image with finer colour reproduction and gradation. The wide dynamic range optics produces a higher level of contrast and brightness over a wide spectrum of colours producing larger colour volume compared to previous models.

The X1 Ultimate processor derives from technologies cultivated with BRAVIA  and optimized for projectors combining object based super resolution HDR remaster (detects individual objects in a picture and preserves the clarity and detail whilst adjusting individual objects colour, contrast or brightness where  required) with dynamic laser control for extreme clarity and  expanded dynamic range.

The all new Advanced Crisp Focused (ACF) Lens adopts the floating focus mechanism which was previously only available in Flagship models. The newly developed projection lens offers improved definition and contrast from the centre of the screen to the periphery regardless of projected screen size. 

If gaming is your thing, the XWseries feature HDMI 2.0b input 18Gbps for up to 4K60p 10bit.  2K120p with 13ms input lag is supported (when selecting input lag reduction mode) 

All of this in the most compact 4K projector currently available. (as of May 2022).

New technologies, more brightness and a new design. Sony’s new Era of 4K laser home cinema has begun.
