MULTIMEDIA PROJECTOR RANGE
BRIGHTER THINKING
Page 2
The original XEED SX50 took the projector world by storm
with its breakthrough resolution, brightness and contrast
… and its breakthrough size. XEED has now evolved into
a complete range – with a projector to suit every application
and every display environment.

SEAMLESS LCOS IMAGES
The distance between pixels in conventional LCD projectors results in images
appearing as if covered in a fine mesh. With virtually no gaps between pixels
in LCOS projectors, images produced are beautifully faithful and silky-smooth.
And with LCOS panels, moving images are smooth and flicker-free.
READ THE FINE PRINT
Professional presentations demand
professional levels of fine detail, which
is why the XEED SX6, XEED SX60 and
XEED SX50 boast SXGA+ resolution.
These projectors clearly display highly
detailed images, such as CAD drawings,
graphic designs, technical data and
medical images.

WORLD FIRST
For powerful presentations with
high quality, seamless images,
the XEED X600 provides a world first:
LCOS projection with XGA resolution
… and an XGA price tag.
The evolution of XEED.

Revolutionary
optical technology.
Project the future.
STUNNING BRIGHTNESS
With AISYS, the light path is optimised to prevent lamp light loss and
provide ultra-powerful brightness. The XEED SX60 and XEED SX50 deliver
2500 lumens brightness – more than enough power to project clearly,
even in well-lit environments. The XEED SX6 and XEED X600 achieve a stunning
3500 lumens – perfect for projection in all conditions, even large venues.
OUTSTANDING CONTRAST
A drawback of traditional LCOS technology is its tendency to produce low contrast
results. Supremely efficient AISYS technology allows XEED projectors to deliver an
incredible 1000:1 contrast ratio for rich colours and true blacks. In Home Cinema
Mode,the XEED SX60 boosts contrast to an outstanding 2000:1 ratio, yielding
incredibly vibrant colours and deep, inky blacks – perfect for viewing movies in
darkened rooms.
COMPACT AND LIGHTWEIGHT
Canon’s advanced AISYS technology dramatically reduces the focal length required
within the optics of XEED projectors, allowing them to be significantly more compact
than traditional LCOS models, and therefore lighter. The original XEED SX50 remains
the most compact LCOS projector on the market today.
THE FUTURE IS HD
With High Definition television broadcasts set to
take off across Europe, XEED projectors are at the
ready to display HD images. The SXGA+ resolution
of the XEED SX6, XEED SX60 and XEED SX50 means
that these projectors can faithfully reproduce both
720p and 1080i High Definition images.
PROFESSIONAL COLOUR ACCURACY
Designers and photographers can be certain that their
colours are reproduced entirely accurately with the
XEED SX6, which supports the Adobe RGB colour space.
Overcoming the drawbacks of traditional LCOS projectors,
which compromised brightness, contrast and size, Canon’s
pioneering AISYS (Aspectual Illumination System) technology
allows the compact XEED range to set new projection standards.
KEEP IT QUIET
Advanced AISYS technology is more
efficient, so less cooling is required,
meaning that distracting fan noise is
reduced. In Quiet Mode the XEED SX60
is virtually silent at a mere 27dBA, while
the XEED SX6 and XEED X600 offer
a Quiet Mode running at just 31dBA.

FLEXIBLE AND POWERED
Each XEED projector is equipped with
a 1.7x zoom lens, allowing for flexible
projector placement. The wide angle of
the lens permits large image projection,
even in small spaces. The models feature
Canon motorised zoom lenses, which
can be operated via the remote control.
AUTOMATIC INTELLIGENCE
A host of key functions are now
automated in the XEED SX6, XEED SX60
and XEED X600, making set-up and
operation a breeze.
With Auto Focus, the projector
automatically sets its focus to the
optimum position, taking into account
throw distance and projection angle.
Keystone Correction in the vertical axis
is automatic, rectifying distortion up to
+/- 20 degrees.
Auto Screen Colour Correction
automatically compensates for the
colour of the projection surface to
to effortlessly deliver a perfect image
with natural-looking colours.
Auto Input selection means the projector
detects the active input terminal and
configures itself accordingly.
Frame Lock is also automatic, ensuring
correct synchronisation when using
a computer to display fast animation.
Making life easy.
Thanks to advances in technology, the new XEED projectors
are easier to use than ever, with greatly enhanced automatic
features. You won’t need a degree in computer science to get
your presentations or movies working just the way you want
them – the projectors do all the thinking for you.
