cinema projectors cinema projector technology dpx-1300 advanced technologies deliver extraordinary performance natural black concept how a video system reproduces black and all its gradations is what determines contrast and generally makes the difference between an image that is merely good and one that is sharp and richly detailed at every level of brightness in quest of superior contrast performance yamaha developed the natural black concept whereby various technologies parts and functions combine to achieve truer deeper levels of black than those of conventional home cinema projectors black reproduction by dpx-1300 and conventional projectors 720p darkchip3tm engine this dlp chip is texas instruments most advanced digital micro mirror device as the name implies it provides deeper blacks while improving contrast in dark areas high-resolution lens yamaha has gone beyond the capabilities of other projectors with the use of a new high-resolution lens that maintains resolution sensitivity to the edge of the lens four anomalous-dispersion glass components are used to reduce chromatic aberration by half while maintaining a short focal point and high zoom magnification dpx-530 natural black and superior features for high contrast high brightness and magnificent colours 4,000:1 contrast ratio the dpx-530 utilizes dlptm and other advanced technologies to deliver superior overall projection performance in addition to a having a wide-panel dmdtm with a mirror angle of ±12° the optical engine features a high-detail allglass lens the prism shape and lens arrangement have been precisely designed and a special coating reduces the light reflection that can affect contrast performance as a result contrast is an amazing 4,000:1 and small details that would ordinarily be obscured by black areas are visible in addition the highest level of brightness in its class 1,500 ansi lumens lets you enjoy clear images in ordinary living room lighting motorised iris control for higher contrast the dpx-530 utilises motorised optical iris control optimising the shape of the iris contributes to the high contrast performance and helps to increase the depth of field seven-segment color wheel this projector uses an improved color wheel with seven segments including a white segment that makes bright scenes extremely vivid quiet operation the dpx-530 runs with the quiet efficiency customers expect from a high quality home cinema projector it uses effective ducting and minimises cooling fan operation by continually adjusting it according to picture brightness viewers can lost themselves in the movie without the annoyance of projector noise low light leakage the chassis is designed to block light leakage from the front where stray light is more likely to affect picture quality 4,000-hour lamp life the lamp has a long service life of approximately 4,000 hours lamp cinema mode thanks to an improved temperature control system dvi-d terminal and hdmi compatibility a dvi-d terminal is provided so digital signals can be received for maximum picture quality this terminal can accept copy protection hdcp signals by using a connector conversion cable hdmi input is possible via the dvi-d terminal 9 yamaha natural black makes subtle degrees of black in textures shadows stand out more clearly with other projectors black contrast may be soft and fuzzy rather than sharp and clear seven-segment color wheel the dpx-1300 incorporates a seven-segment color wheel with an nd filter-equipped green segment resulting in excellent color reproduction natural color adjustment system the dpx-1300 features a color balance adjustment menu that enables higher precision adjustment with easier operation with three color adjustment modes convenient memory functions for each set of input terminals there are a total of six memory positions for storing different combinations of parameter settings and each can be used for two different input signals enabling up to 84 different memory setting patterns mounting flexibility mounting the dpx-1300 is easy and versatile lensto-screen distance can be anywhere from 9 ft 10 in to 15 ft 9 in 100 screen thanks to the powerful 1.6x zoom lens motorized vertical lens shift is ±50 of projection height so the projector can be used at any height between the top and bottom of the screen iris zoom and focus adjustments are also motorized in addition vertical and horizontal keystone hdmi and dvi terminals for versatile interfacing in order to connect the dpx-1300 to any component which outputs a digital video signal it is equipped with both hdmi and dvi terminals this also enables it to handle a variety of other data as well such as component type aspect ratio and calorimetry which can be adjusted taking projector performance to a higher level the dpx-1300 makes use of a wide range of new technologies to deliver extraordinary video performance contrast is an incredible 5,000:1 brightness is 800 ansi lumens picture sharpness is outstanding and color reproduction is stunningly natural new 10-bit video signal processing designed for discerning home theatre fans the dpx-1300 utilizes 10-bit video signal processing from a/d conversion all the way through to dmdtm output in addition the newest hqv technology from silicon optix inc has been adopted to enable programmable per-pixel processing plus at high-definition tv resolution high-level de-interlacing processing 1080i to 1080p is performed is performed at the pixel level complex cadences are handled with ease not only with 3:2 pulldown but also with broadcast film and animation programing for smooth stable de-interlacing other remarkable technologies include highly detailed scaling processing jaggy line reduction for hd sources an exclusive overshoot suppressor is more natural outlines in images to further improve dvd or sd tv picture quality powerful digital video noise reduction minimizes mosquito noise and block noise.
