Pressure lamp assembly. The result is evenly illuminated with crisp delineation from edge to edge.
In addition to new color filters, the VP-11S2 employs a multi-element adjustable-speed color wheel that spins at up to six
times normal speed to eliminate color rainbow effects and breakup. The Fluid Dynamic Bearing motor virtually eliminates
noise usually associated with high speed rotation. The resulting color accuracy simply adds to your enjoyment.
