The VPL-FHZ55 is the world’s first 3LCD Laser Light Source Projector. Sony launched the new projector for Asia in Singapore today. Priced at S$7,999 and available in black or white chasis in Asia Pacific by August 2013.
The VPL-FHZ55 is a WUXGA-class (1920 x 1200) installation projector based on a blue laser light source, and is the world’s first 3LCD laser projector.
I was impressed by a demo of the projector in action in a fully lighted room. The resolution was detailed while the colours were extremely vivid and accurate.
The picture quality was good enough for home entertainment use although the projector is targeted mainly at business and corporate use.
Capable of achieving 4,000 lumens, it is one of the brightest projectors of its kind, and delivers a range of performance capabilities that eliminate many issues associated with conventional lamp-based projection.
