In addition to the new wide LCD panel, a variety of
functions are now available in the projector. These
include DRC-MF (Digital Reality Creation
Multifunction), Sony’s proprietary high-quality
image technology; CINE MOTION; 3-D Gamma
Correction, providing excellent uniformity; Cinema
Black Mode, a mode that reduces the black level
according to the input source/projection
environment; and 3-D YC Separation/DNR (NTSC),
a feature that reproduces a clear image without noise.
High-adaptability in the home
environment
• Reduced noise
The exhaust opening at the front is connected to an
internal fan and air duct. This means the distance
from the fan to the exhaust opening is long,
significantly reducing fan noise.
• Flexible setup
The projection lens has a short focus (100 inches at
3.3 m (10.7 feet) with an aspect ratio of 16:9). The
digital keystone correction function allows
projection at a wide angle. The projector’s white
color goes with any color (ceilings, walls, etc.).
• Detection of clogs in the air filter
This projector uses an air filter which allows a
microcomputer to detect the presence of clogs in the
filter according to the environment where the unit is
used.
To detect clogs accurately, reset the air filter the
first time you use the projector, and every time
you replace the air filter.
For details, see “To reset the air filter” on page 42 (GB).

high-definition television, high-definition LD, etc.
Video memory
The projector has a video memory function. The user
can store up to 6 settings (image quality, aspect,
