3D digital color uniformity
correction circuit creates more
natural-looking large-screen images
The 3D digital color uniformity correction
circuit divides the LCD panel into 825 (33
x 25) sectors. The uneven characteristic
of liquid crystal light transmission is
individually corrected for each sector. This
process is performed precisely in three
gradations of dark, normal and light for
each R, G and B panel to result in a stable
and uniform projection of images that are
free from uneven color artifacts.
Easy setup for instant enjoyment.

Using the vertical/horizontal lens shift
function allows you to precisely adjust
projection screen position as easily as
turning the dial specially shaped for
easy recognition and fine adjustment.
The projected image stays distortion-
free and without any quality degradation.

Digital keystone correction
Extremely useful when the projector is
positioned so that adjustment with the
vertical shift range cannot compensate,
the Digital Keystone Correction is
capable of up to +/-20 degrees vertical
adjustment. Projection of an undistorted
rectangular image at the easiest-to-see
position can be enjoyed. This feature
will also increase setup options.
