LCD Data Projector

VPL-CS

1

Ultra-compact and extremely lightweight

Thanks to newly developed 0.7-inch LCD panels and a unique design, the VPL-CS1 is ultra-compact and weighs approx. 2.9 kg (6.4 lbs.). What’s more, this projector comes with a carrying case and has an easy-to-grip handle and detachable strap that allow you to take it anywhere.

600 ANSI lumens brightness

Despite its compact dimensions, the VPL-CS1 incorporates advanced Sony technologies that provide an impressive 600 ANSI lumens of brightness. A new 120 W UHP lamp and brighter lens, together with

Sony’s unique 0.7-inch SVGA LCD panels and optical unit produce industry-leading levels of image clarity.

Quiet operation

Thanks to its new cooling structure, the VPL-CS1 operates with a low noise level. The use of sapphire glass on the polarizer dramatically reduces heat buildup, making only two internal fans necessary.

Exquisite form, handy function

The sleek front hood not only protects the lens from damage but also serves as the projector’s front stand when flipped open. The rear stand extends simultaneously when the front hood is opened.

Computer friendly

With a hot plug-and-play USB hub and Sony

“PROJECTOR STATION” software*, the VPL-CS1 makes for professional presentations. The projector is fully controllable from a computer, and presentation files registered in the software can be opened by pressing the function keys on the supplied RM-PJM1 remote control unit.

*PROJECTOR STATION software requirements:

Microsoft ® Windows ® 98 operating system.

RM-PJM1

PROJECTOR STATION

Multiscan converter

The VPL-CS1 accepts a wide variety of input signals, with 37 preset signal formats covering any video format used worldwide and PC signals up to SXGA.

Just plug in your computer with the supplied cable and you get a great picture with no need for complex adjustments.

Various inputs

The VPL-CS1 accepts various input signals: Composite video, S video, Y/Cb/Cr and RGB.
