Australian Projector Specialist
Energy-efficient, wireless-ready portable projector
For great Performance, easy convenience and eco and economic responsibility the Sony VPL-EW276 is the right choice for the classroom.
Sony’s inorganic panels (BrightEra) delivers higher picture quality, substantially brighter images, higher efficiency, better contrast, consistent colour stability and longer durability and usability.
With eco conscious features that ensure outstandingly low total cost of ownership the projector provides 7000 hours of lamp life, three brightness mode, auto lamp dimming, auto picture dimming and an ECO Gauge that makes the VPL-EW276 one of the most eco-friendly projectors on the market today
The Sony VPL-EW276 features three brightness modes for your different uses – High for naturally white presentations in bright rooms, Standard for everyday use, and Low for video in darkened rooms.
The VPL-EW276 offers a throw ratio that accommodates the majority of installation replacements in all education environments.
Sony's 0.75 inch BrightEra inorganic TFT 3-LCD panels deliver improved panel light resistance, higher resolution, high brightness and increased panel reliability.
The VPL-EW276 has a colour light output of 2700 ANSI lumens and with a native WXGA (1280 x 800) 16:9 screen resolution panel is perfect for presentations direct from a laptop or PC.
New driving scheme reduces gap expansion that reduces brightness gradation and a new cooling system allows uniformity in the temperature of the glass bulb which prevents the glass from clouding.
Users can easily select power-saving Eco Modes. The most energy-efficient mode is accessible through a single button-push and further adjustments are available through an easily understood menu system.
Reduce power consumption without user detection or after a user pre-set time, reduce brightness and power consumption up to 30% power usage for ultimate power eco savings.
Adjust brightness depending on picture, The darker the picture, the less energy used by the lamp. (Max 70% Lamp power reduction based on image).
New Picture Mute reduces power consumption down to 30% power usage, saving cost and lamp hours. No need to power complete off and turn back on that does increase power consumption and time consuming.
At time of projector shut down an ECO achievement indication (gauge) appears to show the user how well they have used their projector. The more Eco features used, the better the ECO green leaf mark. (Calculated by use of Eco Functions and actual lamp wattage)
The projector can correct keystone distortion by +/- 20% for perfect installation adjustment to the smart board or screen. (Note that since this is an electronic correction, it will reduce the picture quality slightly).
When a computer is used as a picture source, APA automatically optimizes Phase, Pitch and Shift values. These can also be adjusted manually.
Auto Input Search detects which input has an incoming signal, and automatically switches to it. This makes it easier for users to set up the projector prior to making a presentation.
If the picture needs to be turned off, all it takes is a single button-press on the remote control. This will mute audio at the same time. There is also a separate “mute audio” button for audio-only muting.
To avoid the need for a separate audio switcher, the projector can be used to select between two audio sources, routing them via a variable audio output to the room amplification system.
Picture Freeze is useful during presentations if you need to look at other material on your PC’s screen without the viewing audience being aware. Freeze the current image, and you can use your PC independently of the from the projector.
With Digital Zoom, if you are displaying a computer-sourced image, you can enlarge a selected area of the screen image up to four times.
At the end of a presentation, you can turn off the power supply to the projector immediately, instead of going through a ‘power down’ cycle.
With this function, there is no need to go through ‘Standby’ mode when powering up the projector. The projector can be set to activate as soon as power is applied.
The filter only needs to be changed when a new lamp is fitted, potentially halving disruption due to maintenance.
The VPL-EW276 has six picture modes (Dynamic, Standard, Game, Blackboard, Cinema and Presentation) that can be selected to suite the nature of the source material.
Has a package of security measures, including password protection, and physical anti-theft anchor points.
