keystone correction and a horizontal easy-slide control bar for enhanced
image correction, allowing for a rectangular image from almost any angle
-- USB Plug 'n Play: Instantly project video and audio from a Windows(®)
PC or Mac(®) computer via a USB connection
-- HDMI Connectivity: High-quality audio and video content with one cable
-- Optional Wireless Connectivity: Connect directly to a computer,
smartphone or tablet with an optional wireless LAN module; free Epson
iProjection((TM)) app allows users to project wirelessly from most iOS
Apple devices running iOS 4.2 or later and most Android devices running
Android 2.3 or later
-- Quick Control: Direct Power On and Off delivers wall switch power
control, Instant Off(®) quickly powers down the projector with no cool
down time, and the A/V Mute Slide pauses the presentation without
turning the projector off
All Epson projectors feature the latest 3LCD, 3-chip technology to deliver amazing, true-to-life color and detail for powerful presentations; Epson projectors offer three times brighter colors than leading competitive projectors(3). This technology also provides an energy-efficient light engine which uses available lamp light to create stunning images, and in contrast to 1-chip DLP technology, 3LCD requires, on average, 25 percent less electricity per lumen of brightness(4).
Color Brightness Specification and Projector Performance
The new color brightness specification (measuring red, green and blue) published by the Society of Information Display (SID) allows consumers to compare projector color performance without conducting a side-by-side shootout. With today's high definition content, presenters can display content with higher quality in brighter environments. For a truly impressive image, projectors need to offer both high color brightness and high white brightness. High color brightness is important for larger screen sizes and provides flexibility for a variety of screen materials. Without sufficient color brightness, images may be muddy, soft and lose detail, even in a dark room. For more information, visit http://www.colorlightoutput.com.
Availability and Support
The Epson EX5230 Pro is currently available for through major retailers and direct on Epson.com. The projector comes with a one-year limited warranty that includes Road Service projector replacement program with projector exchange in one business day with paid shipping, and a 90-day limited lamp warranty.
