The Sony VPL-ES1 is an entry-level projection system, offered as a new player in Sony's line of Ultra Compact Projectors. It achieves a high brightness of 1500 ANSI lumens* and a native SVGA resolution (800 x 600) by use of a newly developed 0.62-inch LCD panel.
The design of the VPL-ES1 also puts maximum emphasis on ease of use. At the touch of the power button, the Intelligent Auto Setup Function sets up the projector in an instant, allowing presenters to immediately get started at any customer site. And with a smart appearance, the projector will ultimately match any business style.
High Brightness and High Resolution
The Sony VPL-ES1 employs a new 0.62-inch, super?bright LCD panel that offers native SVGA (800 x 600) resolution. This advanced LCD panel, combined with Sony original optical technology and a bright 185 W elliptic reflector lamp, allows the projector to achieve a high brightness of 1500 ANSI lumens. Brilliant images are projected from the ultra-compact body for impressive presentations.
Short Throwing Distance (100 inch @ 2.9m)
The VPL-ES1 comes equipped with a short focal-length lens with a focal length of 18.0-21.6mm. This enables a large screen size from a very short throwing distance. A 100-inch projection size*1 is achieved at a throwing distance of only 2.9 meters. This capability becomes an invaluable feature when room space is limited but presentations must still be dynamic.
Ultra Compact and Light Weight
Compact in size and merely 2.8 kg (6 lb 3 oz) in weight, and can be carried anywhere you need to make your presentation. A soft case is supplied.
Flat and Simple Design
To achieve a clean and simple design, only a few buttons and connectors are located on the top and sides of the projector. Connectors that are not frequently used are concealed with a cover. Therefore, the projector will keep a smart appearance even while being used.
Intelligent Auto Setup Function
Intelligent Auto Setup allows presentations to be started immediately. As soon as the power is turned on, the projector initiates a host of sophisticated set-up functions.
Powered Lens Protector
When power is switched on, the powered lens protector opens automatically. No more wasted time looking for a missing lens cover; it's always on the projector.
Powered Tilt Adjuster and Auto Keystone Correction
The shooting angle can be set with the power-operated tilt adjuster. The tilt angle is adjustable from the supplied Remote Commander unit and the new setting is retained in memory, which can be instantly recalled the next time the projector is used. Vertical keystone distortion is automatically corrected according to the tilt angle. Keystone distortion can be corrected up to 15 degrees. This means images can be projected with correct geometry even where installation space is limited.
Auto Input Search
Automatically checks the projector's input connectors and selects the one to which an input signal is supplied. Images are projected instantly from the moment the power is turned on.
Smart APA (Auto Pixel Alignment)
The Smart APA function automatically sizes and adjusts PC image displays for optimum picture performance – allowing users to concentrate on their presentations, rather than time-consuming technical adjustments.
