Sony's VPL-VW200 and VW60 SXRD projectors come Stateside
Sony's been some busy busy bees in the last 24-hours -- must be the CEDIA juice in the Denver water. Official today come their 1080p/24 Bravia SXRD projector pair: the VPL-VW60 we've seen and new VPL-VW200 pictured above. The latter boasts the same specs -- 22dB, 35,000:1 dynamic contrast, 1,000 lumens -- only with a 120fps SXRD panel with three motion compensation modes and high-output Xenon lamp. Available Stateside, the VW200 hits in October for $15k while the VW60 will cost just $5,000. Full gallery over at Engadget.
Sony's Bravia VPL-VW60: the SXRD black pearl with 35,000:1 contrast
September 20th: know it home cinema buffs. That's the date Sony releases their SXRD followup to the VPL-VW50 "Pearl" projector in Japan. The new Bravia VPL-VW60 projects a 1,920 x 1,080 image with a 35,000:1 contrast ratio and 1,000 lumens courtesy of its (¥42,000 / $367) 200W high pressure mercury lamp and trio of 0.61-inch SXRD chips. It's also quieter than its predecessor at 22dB while packing a pair of HDMI-CEC class HDMI jacks supporting 1080/60p, 50p, and 24p. Best of all though, Sony managed to seriously up the specs while cutting the introductory list price nearly in half to "just" ¥441,000 (about $3,858).%Gallery-6177%[Via Impress]
