BIOS: Technology Means Business

The Epson EMP-TW700 is an HD-ready premium projector for home cinema enthusiasts. With a native 16:9 resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels and HDMI input, it displays true High Definition content.

Image quality is one of the best in its class due to a contrast ratio of 10000:1 and 1600 ANSI lumens of brightness. The new 2.1x zoom lens delivers crisp, sharp images, colour flare reduction and improved lens shift. With its sleek charcoal and white design, the EMP-TW700 will make a stylish addition to your home.

The super high contrast ratio of 10000:1 is the result of Epson’s Auto Iris Optical System, which controls the intensity of light from the lamp. This means you benefit from deeper blacks and improved grey scaling in dark scenes and enhanced crispness and clarity in bright scenes. The inclusion of an advanced 2.1x zoom lens with 80lp/mm resolving power provide images that are crisp and sharp. The high-power lens also contains 14 sub-lenses including two aspherical lenses, which function to reduce colour flare, allowing you to enjoy still and moving images of superior quality.

The EMP-TW700 features Epson’s Cinema Filter for a high-quality image regardless of the environment. Enjoy the brightest images in a light room and clear contrasts in a dark room. The Epson Cinema Filter also faithfully reproduces a wide range of colours thanks to seven colour modes. You can choose the mode that is best suited to your environment. For light rooms, select dynamic mode or choose theatre black for a darker environment.

For those who don’t have the luxury of a large screening room, the EMP-TW700 will project a 60” screen size from just 1.8m away. Thanks to Epson’s horizontal and vertical lens shift technology, you can position the projector off-centre or on the ceiling. The lens can be shifted 102.3% up and down, as well as 50% left and right, meaning that the EMP-TW700 can be placed in a range of positions with no distortion to the projected image.

Phillip Oldham, Senior Product Manager Video Projectors, Epson Europe, says, “The EMP-TW700 is the projector of choice for those who want to recreate a true home cinema experience. It’s HD ready and combined with Epson’s 3LCD technology, images are of incredible clarity – it almost feels like you’re amongst the action. The high contrast ratio and advanced lens add further sharpness to the projection, producing the clearest images.”
