Ideal for corporate and educational applications in the classroom and boardroom, the Sharp PG-F212X Conference/Classroom Multimedia Projector provides enhanced colors and enriched imaging that bring presentations to life. In addition, it offers exceptional compatibility with a wide array of video and audio inputs and high reliability for an extremely versatile presentation experience.

Utilizing the latest BrilliantColor DLP technology, the PG-F212X offers a unique combination of high brightness, superior color reproduction and full feature set at a remarkably affordable price. With 2300 lumens, 2200:1 contrast ratio and XGA 1024 x 768 native resolution, the PG-F212X is perfect for most any educational or meeting room setting. With its HDCP compliant DVI-I input (for a noise-free digital or analog connection) and a full complement of inputs and outputs, including RGB loop-through, audio line output and RS-232-C, this compact and lightweight projector is ideal for both portable use and high-end integration.

High Quality Projection

DLP chip technology ensures that every picture is displayed in a seamless, finely detailed manner. To enhance dark scenes and provide crisp text and graphics, the DLP optical system and Sharp optical technology work together to create a 2200:1 contrast ratio and high brightness of 2300 lumens for a clear picture in virtually any lighting situation.
Employs a 3x color wheel with six color segments including yellow and cyan, added to red, green, blue and white, providing high-accuracy image reproduction. The color wheel uses an ultra-quiet cooling fan to reduce distracting fan noise to an almost unnoticeable 29dB (Eco Mode).
A DVI input terminal enables virtually noise-free images from digital sources. The terminal also complies with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) to support HD digital video content. High-speed on/off switching also helps deliver smooth full-motion video.

High Performance

XGA (1024 x 768) native resolution with PC compatibility up through UXGA (1600 x 1200) with ImageACE resizing.
HDTV/DTV compatibility including 1080i, 720p, 480p and 480i with 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios.
Offers quick start, going into full operation within three seconds of powering-on.
Direct Power Off lets users unplug and move the projector while concurrently controlling the power for multiple projectors via the room's primary power switch in together with the auto restart function.
Includes wireless remote control with forward/back PC and mouse control, spotlight function, on-screen pointer and image "freeze" and break timer.

Inputs/Outputs

Interfaces with PC and Mac laptop and desktop computers, as well as DTV and HDTV formats for connection to DVD players, cable and satellite boxes, HDTV tuners and video game consoles.
Computer inputs include 15-pin D-sub terminal (in/out) and DVI-I with HDCP. Has composite and S-Video inputs with L/R audio jacks, variable audio output and RS-232 interface. Variable audio output allows users to control the audio level right from the projector.

Conveniences

Incorporates a smart front exhaust design that moves potentially damaging hot air from the projector and away from meeting participants sitting to the side or behind the projector. This eliminates excess noise and distracting hot air.
Low power Eco + Quiet mode provides increased lamp life (up to 4000 hours) with reduced power consumption and ultra quiet operation.
Offers lower cost of ownership and longer lifespan thanks to the DLP sealed system that limits dust, dirt and smoke from entering core parts of the optics.
Includes an intuitive Setup Guide to demonstrate features interactively, including focus, zoom and height adjustment. Also includes interactive help menus that display commonly occurring problems, as well as built-in closed caption (CC1, CC2) with black and white text for easy readability.
Compact and lightweight (only 6.4 lbs.), the PG-F212X is perfect for portable presentations (as well as permanent installations).
Backed by a two-year parts and labor warranty including two years of Sharp's industry-leading 24-hour turnaround "ER" Express Repair support. The warranty on the user-replaceable projection lamp is 90 days.

Comments about Sharp PG-F212X Conference/Classroom DLP Multimedia Projector:

This projector was purchased to play DVD's of our year end sport videos for a high school team in a large room for about 200 people.

The color and brightness of the video actually exceeded my expectations.

It was played on a fairly large screen 6x6 feet and the screen was filled with no distortion of the image

only negative was it gets pretty warm, but they all may run this way as this is my only experience with this

    Comments about Sharp PG-F212X Conference/Classroom DLP Multimedia Projector:

    I use this unit for presentations mainly in medium sized conference rooms. The pictures are bright and it isn't washed out by small amount of incidental lights. It also works great when viewing movies, too. It has the best combination of features and function at this price range. Would definitely buy another.

        Comments about Sharp PG-F212X Conference/Classroom DLP Multimedia Projector:

        Projector is being used as a monitor on the back wall of a church so that those on the platform can see what is on the main screen. The keystone correction of this computer is great and allowed us to keep the projector on the sound desk rather than place it on a stand or hang it from the ceiling.

          Comments about Sharp PG-F212X Conference/Classroom DLP Multimedia Projector:

          I use the projector to watch movies on in my living room. It works great and is nice and quiet. The brights are bright and the darks are pretty dark. The only drawback to this projector, as with many, is that in order to utilize the component or HD inputs you need to buy an additional cord. Regardless of that one issue, the projector is a good little piece of equipment and is a great price! I would recommend it to anyone who wants a home theater projector without spending a ton of money on a projector specifically designed for home theater use.
