The BenQ W500 takes home theater entertainment to a whole new level, featuring color and detail that's sure to win rave reviews from friends and family alike. With 1100 lumens and the vivid realism of 3LCD technology, this projector will make your home the hottest ticket in town. Experience movies, games and sporting events like you never have before. As stylish as it is entertaining, the W500 is the perfect performer, adapting well to virtually any scene, whether you mount it on a ceiling, shelf or table.

The W500 features an iris-like lens design that mimics our own eye, adjusting the aperture after analyzing the incoming video signal. The aperture is contracted during dark scenes for truer black tones and enhanced detail, while it is enlarged for bright scenes to maximize light output and enable a wider dynamic range. No matter what type of content is on, the W500 ensures that you get the very best viewing experience.

Key Features

• Senseye Contrast Enhancement: The W500 maintains high contrast, whatever is on screen and wherever you're watching.

• Senseye Clarity Enhancement: The W500 is designed to give you pristine HD-quality video even when the source is noise-ridden SD.

• Senseye Motion Optimization: The W500 remedies shortcomings in regular projectors when it comes to handling fast-changing video content.

• Senseye Color Management: Getting the widest possible range of colors and displaying them with precision accuracy is another key advantage of the W500.

• Color Correctly: The W500 achieves greater color accuracy by handling each color signal in the video input individually, applying its brightness value directly in rendering the video. In contrast, regular projectors use a sampling process, which inevitably results in a loss of information about specific color signals and color distortion in the final projection image.

• Converts SD to HD Quality: The W500 not only converts SD content such as analog TV broadcasts to HD-quality video, but it analyzes an amazing 1,024 pixels in the source for each pixel in the final HD version for native HD-like picture quality.

• Noise Reduction: The W500 analyzes multiple frames in source video to identify and then eliminate pixels giving rise to visual noise, and also corrects for distortions resulting from too much compression.

• Make the "Jaggies" Go Away: Sophisticated Multi-Dimensional Diagonal Filtering (MDDF) technology smooths away the "jaggies" that crop up along the edges of moving objects-even those lying at shallow angles of 5 to 7°.
