LIQUID CRYSTAL PROJECTOR FOR HOME THEATER

NEW RELEASE
LPF-B601

Incorporating "FINE MODE" function of our original development suitable for seeing movies

Owing to the commencement of BS digital Hi-vision broadcasting, rapid growth of DVD market and terrestrial wave digital TV broadcasting scheduled to start in 2003, the living environment is changing so that the dynamic large screen and high quality picture which people could enjoy only in the movie theater are now becoming readily available in ordinary homes. Thereby, the home theater market is expected to further expand in the future.

Under such market situations, we have developed the liquid crystal projector "LPF-B601" for home theater incorporating "Fine Mode" function of our original development and achieving high picture quality by utilizing various technologies cultivated by the development of "Plasmavision® " and data projector.

We will start selling those projectors in domestic and overseas markets from July.

"LPF-601" is a liquid crystal projector for home theater use complying with HDTV Standard "720p" in real image and realizing the industry's top level of high brightness 1200 ANSI lumens by adopting a Wide 16:9 panel and developing a new optical engine.

Furthermore, the new product is equipped with such functions suitable for seeing movies as "Fine Mode" function (Hyper cinema mode) which is highly valued in "Plasmavision® " and "2-3 Pull-down" function reproducing movies faithfully.

"Fine Mode" function is the optimum mode which, unlike conventional cinema mode, reduces the brightness without decreasing gray scale, suppresses glaringness of the screen and reproduces faithfully the detailed feeling of a material of the film in the original movie in a calm room.

"2-3 Pull-down" is the function which reproduces faithfully beautiful pictures of DVD matching the number of frames of movie, and the real live feeling of a movie theater can be sensed at home.
