Sony VPL-SX535 Product Sheet

VPL-SX535 Projector

XGA resolution ultra short throw projector
with 3000 lumens brightness

The VPL-SX535 XGA projector offers a 0.34 - 0.36:1 throw ratio that produces a 2.03M
(80”) diagonal screen size image from only 0.46 metres (1.5 feet) away from the screen.
This projector has been designed to be easy to operate and to deliver a low total cost
of ownership. It is an ideal choice for ultra close projection applications in the corporate
and educational markets.

Furthermore, in common with all Sony projectors, the VPL-SX535 features the Sony
BrightEra 3LCD inorganic panel technology that delivers higher picture quality,
substantially brighter images, higher efficiency, better contrast, consistent colour stability
and longer durability and usability.

The VPL-SX535 also features 3 different brightness modes to suit each individual user’s
needs. In the high brightness mode, the projector has a brightness of 3000 lumens. The
low brightness mode generates lower operating costs by reducing power consumption
and extending the lamp lifetime to approximately 6000 hours. This projector also has a
contrast ratio of 2500:1, video inputs and RJ45 or RS232C connectors for control.

Maximum 3000 lumens brightness with
High, Standard and Low modes

The VPL-SX535 features three brightness modes for
different uses – High for naturally white presentations
in bright rooms (3000 Lumens), Standard for
everyday use (2400 Lumens) and Low for video in
darkened rooms (2000 Lumens).

Lens Shift Function

The projector is equipped with horizontal and vertical
lens shift functions for greater installation flexibility.
Using this function, the position of the projected
image can be moved vertically up and down by

4.6% and horizontally from -3.4% through to +3.4%.

0.34 - 0.36:1 Throw Ratio

The VPL-SX535 offers a 0.34 - 0.36:1 throw ratio
that produces a 2.03M (80”) diagonal screen size
image from only 0.46 metres (1.5 feet) away from
the screen.

ECO Mode Key

Users can easily select power-saving ECO
Modes. The most energy-efficient mode is
accessible though a single button-push, with
further adjustments available through an easily
understood menu system.

Filter replaced at the same time
as Lamp

The filter only needs to be changed when a
new lamp is fitted, potentially halving disruption
due to maintenance.

Key Features

ECO Lamp Dimming

This projector (if this function is selected)
can reduce power consumption and
brightness by 10 -15%. After a user
pre-set time, the brightness and power
consumption will reduce to 30% power
usage, with instant 100% brightness
returning as soon as a new signal input
is detected.

ECO Picture Mute - (Instant Off/Instant On)

The new ECO Picture Mute feature
reduces power consumption down to
30%, saving cost and lamp hours. This
feature can be used in the classroom as
instant off/instant on in-between class
changes. There is no need to power
completely off and turn back on, which
is time consuming.

6000 Hours Lamp Life

A new driving scheme reduces gap
expansion which minimises brightness
gradation. A new cooling system allows
uniformity in the temperature of the
glass bulb which prevents the glass
from clouding.

Other Features

Vertical Keystone Adjustment

The projector can correct keystone
distortion by +/- 5% for perfect
installation adjustment to the smart
board or screen. (Note that since this is
an electronic correction, it will reduce
the picture quality slightly.)

Digital Zoom

With Digital Zoom, users can enlarge a
selected area of a computer-sourced
image on the screen up to four times.

Six Picture Modes

The VPL-SX535 has six available picture
modes for correct picture quality;
Dynamic, Standard, Game, Living,
Cinema and Presentation. With six
picture modes and 3 brightness modes
combined, users can select the most
suitable picture/brightness mode
according to the picture source and
environment for the perfect image.

3LCD BrightEra Technology

The Sony 0.63 inch BrightEra inorganic
TFT 3LCD panels deliver improved panel
light resistance, higher resolution, high
brightness and increased panel
reliability.

Auto Input Search

Auto Input Search detects which input
has an incoming signal and
automatically switches to it. This makes it
easier for users to set up the projector
prior to making a presentation.

Picture Muting

If the picture needs to be turned off, all it
takes is a single button-press on the
remote control. This will mute audio at
the same time. There is also a separate
“mute audio” button for audio-only
muting.

Audio Switcher Facility

To avoid the need for a separate audio
switcher, the projector can be used to
select between two audio sources,
routing them via a variable audio output
to the room amplification system.

Picture Freeze Function

Picture Freeze is useful during
presentations where users need to look
at other material on their PC’s screen
without the viewing audience being
aware. Freeze the current image and
users can use their PC independently of
the display from the projector.

Direct Power On/Off

With this function, there is no need to go
through ‘Standby’ mode when powering
up the projector. The projector can be
set to activate as soon as power is
supplied.

Built-in Security Measures

The VPL-SX535 has a package of security
measures, including password protection
and physical anti-theft anchor points.

Smart APA (Auto Pixel Alignment)

When a computer is used as a picture
source, APA automatically optimises
Phase, Pitch and Shift values. These can
also be adjusted manually.
