The BenQ SH960 Dual Lamp Professional Projector, with its 5500 ANSI lumens and 2000:1 contrast ratio, works just as well in a home media room as it does in a brightly-lit classroom, auditorium or lecture hall.
A unique dual lamp system is adopted for the SH960 to deliver impactful presentations. With two lamps at work, presentations can be carried on without interruption. If one lamp goes out, the other lamp will simply work harder to perform with optimum brightness.
This projector can operate just about anywhere in the world. It can handle power from 100 to 240 V AC at 50 or 60Hz. Its onscreen display offers 28 languages to choose from. The SH960 can process and display video signals in NTSC (the North American TV standard), NTSC 4.43, PAL, PAL-N, PAL-M, PAL-60, SECAM and more than two dozen PC and Mac resolution/frequency pairs. It can also project in 720p, 1080i and 1080p high definition and those signals will stay in pure digital form from their source to the projector thanks to the SH960's HDMI v 1.3 port.
But the SH960 has virtues beyond its flexibility. Economical mode lowers fan noise to that of a whispered conversation and extends lamp life too. Auto Off also saves money. A built in FAQ button projects answers to frequently asked questions right on the screen. Quick Auto Search finds the active input fast when you have multiple connections. And Wall Color Correction corrects the color when you don't have a screen and have to project on a wall or blackboard.

Comments about BenQ SH960 Dual Lamp Professional Projector:
We used this product in a media installation at a new museum, and while I'm by no means a tech, it worked great, and I heard some lovely comments about the quality of the installation during the opening party. So I'm very happy with it.
