SONY VPL-PHZ61 - WUXGA Laser Projector

Incredibly Small and Light 6400 Lumen Laser Projector

The VPL-PHZ61 has the smallest body in its class and combines exceptional image quality with up to 7000 lm center brightness and extraordinary reliability. Its discreet design, minimal maintenance requirements, and flexible installation options make it the perfect partner for today's integrated AV environments.

• Vivid, rich colors even in brightly lit rooms
• Even the most powerful projectors can suffer from washed-out colors when used in brightly lit rooms. Bright View, Sony’s unique processing technology for projecting bright images while maintaining rich colors, delivers impactful images even in brightly lit business and educational environments. The new improved version of Reality Creation ensures crisp images, diagrams, and text, even in bright conditions.
• Sharper images and text
• Reality Creation uses powerful algorithms that boost image resolution closer to 4K quality. Reality Text improves visibility – ideal for conference rooms, university lecture halls and large classrooms in general.
• Optimized viewing experience
• Intelligent Settings use a built-in light sensor to automatically adjust Bright View mode, color gain, and Reality Creation to suit your presentation environment.
• Optimal images and energy saving
• The VPL-PHZ61 is suitable for businesses and helps you reduce running costs in business and educational environments. A new Auto Light Output function works in conjunction with Ambiance, optimizing image quality and maintaining high visibility while reducing power consumption.
• Supports 4K 60p input
• Support for 4K 60p input signals simplifies life when using the VPL-PHZ61 projector in multi-screen setups with sub-displays. Simply transmit the same 4K signal to all displays with no need for conversion. There’s also a high-performance image scaler that effortlessly converts 4K input signals to WUXGA resolution, yielding an image quality that’s close to 4K. Now optimized for 4K 60p signals, Reality Creation is Sony's unique image enhancement feature that delivers even sharper, deeper projected images. There’s also support for content-protected devices like 4K UHD players.
• Smart design and easy to install
• Flexible installation options offer a wide range of vertical lens shift of 55% making it easy to create perfectly proportioned images without the need for long brackets or keystone correction when the projector is ceiling mounted. Sony has also widened the range of throw ratios, making it easier to replace a previously installed projector without the hassle of repositioning an existing ceiling mount.
• Brighter images for longer, with less maintenance
• The VPL-PHZ61 projector delivers many innovations to keep images looking crisp and bright throughout the projector’s operational lifetime, with minimal maintenance, in any environment.
• Smart design
• Intelligent Settings simplify setup and maximize performance based on usage, image detail, color vividness and fidelity, brightness, cooling level, and output noise. The Meeting/Classroom function controls laser output to maintain the highest possible brightness for years of real-world use.
• Forget about dust
• The projector’s laser light source is sealed to prevent dust accumulation and eliminate issues with brightness reduction. The dedicated cooling duct structure for the 3LCD panels is covered by an air filter to prevent dust from entering.
• Hassle-free filter maintenance
• The new dust filtering system means replacement filters are now a thing of the past for general use in classrooms and meeting rooms. For more intensive use in dusty environments, a new obstruction sensor is available to indicate when the filter needs cleaning.
• Data cloning
• The settings of one projector can be copied to other projectors using a USB memory stick. This greatly simplifies the installation and setup of multiple units.
• Auto input selection
• The auto input selection function automatically selects an active signal input, so there is no need to change the input every time a device is connected to the projector.
• Auto power-on
• By connecting the VPL-PHZ61 to a powered-on computer, the projector will automatically wake up, with no need to use the power button.
