Sony VPL-FX500L Brochure & Specs page 3

"Blend-in" Design
The VPL-FX500L showcases a newly designed low-profile
chassis, so the projector appears to blend into the ceiling or
wall on which it is mounted. The connector panel is located
on the front of the unit so its cables cannot be seen by the
audience.
High Picture Quality
Brilliant Color Performance
By combining a new-generation optical system that uses
Sony's BrightEra™ with Long Lasting Optics technology* and
a 3LCD projection system, the VPL-FX500L offers high picture
quality in XGA (1024 x 768) resolution and a high brightness
of 7,000 lumens.
* BrightEra with Long Lasting Optics is the Sony bland name for a new
generation of optical system, which uses a more advanced version of
Sony's original BrightEra technology. In addition to adopting LCD panels
that have pixels with large aperture ratios and inorganic alignment layers,
BrightEra with Long Lasting Optics technology also uses an inorganic layer
for polarization plates to greatly enhance reliability.
3LCD Projection Offers Brilliant Color Performance
The VPL-FX500L adopts a 3LCD projection system
incorporating three LCD panels. This system enables the
projector to present bright and natural images.
12-bit 3D Gamma Correction
The VPL-FX500L incorporates 12-bit 3D Gamma Correction
circuitry to perform highly accurate gamma correction,
achieving smoother gradations and a richer gray scale.
I/P Conversion and Film Mode
The video signal processing technology that Sony has
incorporated in the VPL-FX500L offers I/P conversion and 2-3
pull-down to generate high-quality images with outstanding
clarity.
