Sony VPL-VW1100ES Overview

The VPL-VW1100ES/X 4K Home Cinema Projector with 4K Media Player & 16 GB Xperia Tablet Z from Sony supports 4K images and provides 2000 ANSI lumens of brightness. It's fitted with Sony Iris3 technology and SXRD projection system. It supports a 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio as well. The projector also features a 2.06x motorized zoom lens, electric lens shift, and the ability to interface with home automation systems.

The projector is also able to upscale Full HD 1080p resolution content to near 4K quality and it also supports 3D viewing. 2D to 3D conversion is supported as well. The projector features Motionflow technology, which displays twice as many images and transitions per second than Full HD. You will be able to see every detail with minimal blur. Other features include dual HDMI inputs, Picture Position Memory technology, low 23 dB fan noise, 11 gamma modes, and nine picture modes. As an added bonus, this model includes an Xperia Tablet Z and a 4K media player.

4K Native Resolution (Four Times Full HD 1080p Resolution)
The VPL-VW1100ES provides 4096 x 2160 resolution delivered through three 4K SXRD panels that produce a 4K native picture with no artificial pixel enhancement.
Dynamic Contrast Delivers Detailed Images
4K SXRD panels and Iris3 technology work together to produce a dynamic contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. Deep blacks plus a flatter pixel surface help to create detailed images.
Triluminos Display Technology
The VPL-VW1100ES's optical engine and SXRD panels incorporate Sony's Triluminos Display technology to produce a broader color range, reproducing more tones and textures than many standard projector systems. The result is impressive purity, depth, and realism.
2000 Lumens of Brightness
At 2000 ANSI lumens, the projector incorporates a high performance lamp for an optimum viewing experience at home.
16 GB Xperia Tablet Z
A 16 GB Xperia Tablet Z is also included. A preloaded application gives you all the control you need to enjoy true 4K content at home. Browse your movie library or the Video Unlimited 4K store, read plot summaries and select what you want to watch. Play, stop or even use the touch screen to drag to specific times in each video. You can exit the application without disrupting the video as well, so you can use the tablet for whatever else you desire.
4K Ultra HD Media Player
Get the most out of your Sony 4K Ultra HD TV with the included 4K Ultra HD Media Player. It comes preloaded with 10 bonus feature films and video shorts, plus Sony's Video Unlimited 4K network video service, which offers access to a library of 4K movies and TV shows.
Reality Creation Upscales Your Movies to 4K
As well as native 4K material, you can see your current Full HD Blu-ray or DVD movie collection upscaled to 4K. Reality Creation is a Super Resolution technology that enhances Full HD content - even upscaling 3D movies to 4K.
Compatible with 'Mastered in 4K' Blu-ray Discs
Drawing on the same technology used to downscale 4K material for Full HD, the VPL-VW1100ES gives you a near native 4K experience with discs 'Mastered in 4K'.
Motionflow
For fast-moving scenes, our Motionflow technology means you'll see every detail with minimal blur. The VPL-VW1100ES displays twice as many images and transitions per second than Full HD for a crisp, clear, sharp picture - no matter how fast the action.
Delivers 4K Viewing at 60p
The projector displays up to 60p (60 progressive frames per second) for 4K. It's significantly higher than the previous 24p, for a smoother viewing experience with greater color and realism.
Wider Range of Color
The projector offers a wider than normal color space, allowing it to show a greater range of colors than Adobe RGB or specified by the professional DCI standard (Digital Cinema Initiatives).
Zoom Lens & Wider Lens Shift
A 2.06x motorized zoom lens and wide lens shift range (80% vertical and 31% horizontal) gives greater installation flexibility - even when the ceiling is very high.
Suitable for Home Automation
The projector is compatible with many home automation systems. It has an RS-232 interface, RJ-45 LAN control, and an IR input terminal.
Picture Position Memory
This feature remembers the position of the zoom lens. You can match it to a movie's aspect ratio (including 16:9 and CinemaScope) and store the settings for a future viewing.
Precise Panel Alignment
With electronic panel alignment, red and blue elements in every pixel are correctly positioned. For optimum clarity, adjustments can be made by as little as 0.1 pixels.
Quiet Fan
The projector's noise reduction technology ensures that projector sound is kept to a minimum of only 23 dB.
Gamma Adjustments
For greater detail, as well as color and tonal accuracy, you can make fine gamma adjustments (levels 1 to 6) with Image Director3 Software. Once you download it, plug in your PC via the RS-232C terminal and choose Fine or Course settings thanks to an innovative zooming function.
