VPL-DS100

High Brightness and High Resolution

The VPL-DS100 employs a new 0.62-inch,
super-bright LCD panel that offers native SVGA
(800 x 600) resolution. This advanced LCD
panel, combined with Sony original optical
technology and a bright 185W elliptic reflector
lamp, allows the VPL-DS100 to achieve a high
brightness of 1200 ANSI lumens. Brilliant
images are projected from the ultracompact
body for impressive presentations.

Short Throwing Distance
(100 inch @ 9.5 feet)

The VPL-DS100 comes equipped with a short
focal-length lens with a focal length of 18.0-

21.6mm. This enables a large screen size from
a very short throwing distance. A 100-inch
projection size (viewable area, measured
diagonally) is achieved at a throwing distance
of only 9.5 feet. This capability becomes an
invaluable feature when room space is limited
but presentations must still be dynamic.

Ultra Compact and Light Weight

Compact in size and merely 6 lbs., 3 oz. (2.8 kg)
in weight, the VPL-DS100 can be carried
anywhere with its supplied soft case.

Flat and Simple Design

To achieve a clean and simple design, only a
few buttons and connectors are located on the
top and sides of the projector. Connectors that
are not frequently used are concealed with a
cover. Therefore, the VPL-DS100 will keep a
smart appearance even while being used.

VPL-DS100 – The Smart Choice
for Impressive Mobile
Presentations

As the newest player in Sony's line of Ultra­compact Projectors, the economical VPL­DS100 packs a high quality projection system
in a stylish and compact body. It achieves a
high-brightness of 1200 ANSI lumens* and a
native SVGA resolution (800 X 600) by use of
a newly developed 0.62-inch LCD panel. The
design of the new VPL-DS100 puts maximum
emphasis on simple operation. At the touch
of the power button, the Intelligent Auto
Setup Function sets up the projector in an
instant, allowing presenters to immediately
get started at any customer site. And with its
smart appearance, the VPL-DS100 will
ultimately match any business style.

* ANSI lumen is a standard measuring method of the

American National Standards Institute IT7.228. Since there
is no uniform method of measuring brightness,
specifications will vary among manufacturers.
