Features
Laser Light Source Projector with Sony 3LCD BrightEra™ Panel Technology
This projector combines a highly efficient laser light source with Sony's advanced 3LCD BrightEra™ technology. This synergy delivers exceptionally bright images with excellent colour accuracy, stability, high efficiency, and enhanced durability, contributing to a reduced total cost of ownership.
Clear, Bright, Punchy Presentations in Any Lighting Conditions
With 7,000 lumens of brightness, the VPL-FHZ700L ensures detailed, impactful, and realistic presentations, even in environments with high ambient light levels, such as large boardrooms, auditoriums, or retail spaces.
Crisp, Detail-Packed WUXGA Resolution Images
The projector supports WUXGA (1920 x 1200) 16:10 resolution, allowing for the display of fine details in PC presentations, videos, and multimedia signage.
Up to 20,000* Hours Operation with Virtually No Maintenance
The advanced laser light source provides a typical 20,000 hours of operation without the need for maintenance or replacement. This, along with 20,000-hour filter replacement cycles, helps maintain peak operating condition while minimizing maintenance visits and reducing lifetime running costs.
Wide Range of Lens Shift, Zoom, Throw Ratio
Flexible installation is supported by generous zoom, throw, and lens shift adjustments, allowing precise projector positioning, including close to ceilings, near screens, or with horizontal offsets. Optional lenses can further extend the throw ratio capabilities.
360° Free-Angle Installation Capability
Users can enjoy supreme installation flexibility, positioning the projector freely at any angle, including sideways or upside down.
Connectivity via HDBaseT™
The projector offers simple and cost-effective connectivity over long distances using an HDBaseT digital interface, supporting multi-signal transmission over a single cable.
Create Super-Size Displays with Edge Blending
Accurately color-matched images from multiple projectors can be seamlessly joined using the edge blending feature, enabling the creation of stunning, large-scale displays for retail, corporate events, and live applications.
Project onto Non-Flat Surfaces with Image Warping
Image geometry can be easily corrected for natural-looking projections, even on convex or concave surfaces. Corner and edge correction adjustments are accessible via the supplied remote and on-screen menu.
Advanced Energy-Saving Features
The projector incorporates advanced light source and control technology for robust energy-saving capabilities. The Auto Dimming mode saves energy when the projector is idle, while the Auto Light Output Mode dynamically adjusts brightness based on the projected scene. Light output can also be completely deactivated to minimize energy consumption when the picture needs to be temporarily muted.
