Epson has announced the launch of the EH-TW6100 and EH-TW5910 full HD projectors, delivering an immersive 3D experience for film enthusiasts, sports lovers and gamers. Affordable and easy to use, yet packed with the latest technology, the projectors feature:
* Radio Frequency (RF) 3D technology, providing a strong signal for 3D glasses
* 3LCD technology with equally bright White and Colour Light output for vivid, lifelike images
* 2D to 3D conversion at the tap of a button
* Up to 40 000:1 contrast ratio
* A throw ratio of 1:3-2.15:1
2D HD content can be converted to 3D at the touch of a button, while automatic colour optimisation, 3D depth adjustment and super-resolution technology further enhance the viewing experience. Epson's 3LCD technology and an equally high White and Colour Light Output of up to 2 300 lumens ensure colours are lifelike and every detail is accurately reproduced.
Both the EH-TW6100 and the EH-TW5910 sit at an extremely neat price point, offering the avid gamer and home entertainment enthusiast an immersive 3D experience without denting the wallet. The incredibly sharp 2 300 lumens and the high contrast ratio of the EH-TW6100 means images are crisp and detailed and that this projector can handle a range of different light conditions with ease.
Gamers will appreciate the crisp colours, deep blacks and the low noise fans. No bright, sunny afternoon will interfere with that retro trip to Black Mesa and, of course, let's not forget the immersive magic of WoW in 3D!
Epson hasn't forgotten sports fans and home entertainment lovers, as the user-friendly design, slideshow function and auto-colour optimiser ensure a seamless viewing experience from start to finish.
Kelvin Reynolds, general manager of Epson South Africa, says: "Since we entered the full HD 3D home cinema market a year ago, we've added some great new functions to our home cinema products, and these two projectors are a perfect blend of rich features and affordability."
The EH-TW6100 comes with a pair of USB-rechargeable, radio frequency, lightweight, active shutter 3D glasses, which can be used up to 10 metres from the projector.
The EH-TW6100 and EH-TW5910 are available from November, priced at R21 999 and R16 999, respectively
