Sony VPL-HW65ES, VPL-VW365ES, VPL-VW665ES Projectors

Sony VPL-VW665ES

Sony announced two new 4K Ultra HD home theater projectors, models VPL-VW665ES and VPL-VW365ES with 5 digit price tags, which replace the VPL-VW600ES and VPL-VW350ES projectors, respectively. A new 1080p model VPL-HW65ES was also announced for substantially less money. Each offers a long-lasting lamp for up to 6,000 hours of performance, with high brightness and high contrast for even more vibrant images.

The Sony VPL-VW665ES (pictured top) is compatible with HDMI input of HDR (High Dynamic Range) content with a 300,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. HDR imagery comes closest to the reality our eyes see every day, with higher contrast, deeper blacks, and exceptional dynamic range. Sony is developing HDR support across its portfolio and the VPL-VW665ES gives home cinema enthusiasts the opportunity to experience total immersion in whatever they are watching.

Sony VPL-VW365ES

The new VPL-VW665ES and VPL-VW365ES use advanced SXRD panels for a native 4K picture, with no artificial manipulation of pixels. Rich and accurate color reproduction is ensured by Sony’s proprietary TRILUMINOS engine design, while Motionflow picture technology serves to deliver clearer, less blurry images when watching fast-paced, cinematic or sports action.

Both new models allow users to enjoy up-to-date 4K content services through the latest connectivity options using the latest HDMI standard and HDCP 2.2. A built-in RF 3D transmitter provides interface to industry-standard 3D glasses with a strong wireless signal for wider coverage and 3D synchronization stability. Professional calibration features allow operators to expertly adjust the picture to suit the viewers’ tastes. These color correction tools allow access to adjust the hue, saturation, and brightness of each color and the color space for red, green, blue respectively, to their desired level.

Sony VPL-HW65ES

For the non-4K crowd, Sony also announced the new VPL-HW65ES Full HD 1080p SXRD projector for substantially less money. The new model brings an advanced Reality Creation to the Full HD home theater experience along with higher brightness and longer lamp life of 6,000 hours. It also provides a built in RF 3D transmitter and a USB update function to enable the device’s firmware to be updated via a simple download and thumb drive transfer. The added IP control interface gives the projector versatile home automation compatibility, which combines with its compact size and front exhaust for a range of flexible installation solutions.

Now installers can take advantage of Projector Calibration Pro software on HD through 4K Sony home theater models, allowing them to manipulate all of a projector’s features from a simple PC interface, including the sophisticated color calibration tools. Setup configurations can be saved to a file to upload to any future installations, making future calibrations that much quicker. Additional adjustments made for a particular client can be saved in a separate file that will allow the installer to easily recall their original calibrations if ever needed to tweak that client’s system in the future.
