HC3100
EXPERIENCE THE PERFECTION OF SECOND-GENERATION HOME CINEMA.
The legend has a successor: The HDready DLP® projector
HC3100 picks up where the legendary HC3000 left off and
impresses by improved and highly innovative new features.
The new DMD DarkChip3™ provides an amazing contrast ratio
of 4500:1 and the 720p resolution delivers pictures that are
incredibly clear and vivid, so lifelike as if they were real. The
motorized IRIS function rounds off your home cinema expe-
rience with a black level that is exceedingly intense. The low
operating noise of 25 dB, an adjustable 6-segment color wheel
and a lamp life of up to 3000 hours make this projector excep-
tionally reliable and easy to use.
Believe your eyes! Experience the enjoyment of home cinema
made perfect.
