Engineered for enthusiast-level home theatre applications, the XV-Z18000 focuses on smooth image reproduction and stable, consistent visual performance suitable for large-format projection. Its design supports integration into custom home cinema rooms, making it a practical choice for users seeking a purpose-built projector for serious cinema-style viewing.
Full HD Home Theatre Performance
The Sharp XV-Z18000 is a high-definition DLP™ front projector designed to deliver outstanding value for home cinema enthusiasts. Its refined optical engine and robust feature set provide immersive large-screen viewing with strong brightness, excellent contrast, and finely detailed colour reproduction.
Full HD Resolution and Brightness
The XV-Z18000 features a Full HD panel with 1,920 × 1,080 resolution, delivering smooth, high-resolution images well suited to large-screen projection. With up to 1,400 ANSI lumens brightness in high-brightness mode, it maintains image clarity and impact across a wide range of viewing environments.
High Dynamic Contrast Imaging
A thoroughly developed optical engine using a reflective DLP® chip enables a dynamic contrast ratio of up to 33,000:1. By precisely controlling mirror angles to minimise light leakage, the system enhances subtle tonal differences and delivers deep black levels with accurate shadow detail.
Automatic and Manual Keystone Correction
Auto vertical keystone correction allows fast adjustment of projection angle with a single button press, compensating vertically within ±12 degrees. Manual keystone correction is also available for both vertical and horizontal adjustment, supporting flexible installation when the projector is placed off-axis.
Advanced Geometric Adjustment
Additional image control features include spherical adjustment for projection onto curved surfaces and picture rotation to correct horizontal image tilt caused by uneven placement. These tools expand installation possibilities beyond standard flat-screen setups.
Image Control and System Integration
Multiple picture modes can be selected directly from the projector or remote control to optimise viewing for movies, games, or general content. CEC functionality enables coordinated operation with compatible HDMI-connected video devices, while the image shift function allows precise on-screen positioning without moving the projector.
