BenQ SP891 1080p DLP Digital Projector, 4,500 ANSI Lumens, 3,000:1 Contrast Ratio, 400W Lamp, NTSC, PAL, SECAM

With Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution and 4500 ANSI lumens of brightness at a tack-sharp 3000:1 contrast ratio, the BenQ SP891 DLP Digital Projector creates a unique theater experience wherever it's used. The SP891 can deliver 720p, 1080i and 1080p/60/50/24 high definition signals from a satellite, a cable box and Blu-ray discs and those images will stay in pristine digital form (no analog conversion required) along the path between the device and the SP891, thanks to its HDMI 1.3 input.

The part that forms the picture in this projector is a Texas Instruments DLP DMD panel. It features an innovation that Texas Instruments calls it BrilliantColor and you'll call it amazing. Unlike other technologies such as LCD that use just three primary colors to produce the image, DLP Technology with BrilliantColor uses up to six separate colors.

Color accuracy is paramount to a quality image. BrilliantColor not only improves color accuracy, it brightens secondary colors as well. This combination produces a new level of color performance that increases the brightness of the colors by up to 50% over DLP projectors without BrilliantColor for accurate, true-to-life images. The SP891's Hollywood Quality Video (HQV) by IDT makes even 480i signals look almost as good as high definition while the digital comb filter further enhances color purity. Other features that contribute to the clean, smooth image rendition are true pixel-by-pixel processing and motion-adaptive de-interlacing.

This projector also has a set of four picture modes for A/V inputs. For each type there are inputs specialized for brightly lit rooms, presentations, viewing photos, standard and watching movies plus two "user" modes that allow you to save your own picture preferences. The SP891 not only projects stunning pictures, it can do so all over the world with its 100 to 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz auto-switching power supply and its ability to handle NTSC, PAL and SECAM video signals. Its OSD (on-screen display) offers your choice of 16 languages. It's even got a high-altitude mode.

The extensive connectivity includes HDMI, component and S-video as well as a PC in and monitor out. With all of those possible inputs you may find that you have multiple sources plugged into your SP891 at the same time. With Auto Input Search activated, it will automatically switch to the one that's got the live signal. An RJ-45 connector allows remote control of the projector over a network as well as e-mail alerts, maintenance scheduling and monitoring.

Best of all, your SP891 is energy efficient. It uses only 520 watts to project its super bright image and in standby mode it draws only a single watt. A security password and panel key lock ensures against unauthorized use. Auto-off shuts down the projector after a proscribed period of non-use and its quick-cool function allows you to pack up and move on to your next appointment.
