THE INDUSTRY’S FIRST 800 LUMEN SVGA
SUPERPORTABLE FROM THE WORLD LEADER
IN HIGH PERFORMANCE PROJECTORS
The Epson PowerLite® 500c is proof positive that
good things come in small packages. The PowerLite
500c packs the most brightness ever—an incredible 800
lumens—into a superportable 5.8 lb SVGA package. It’s
packed with all the features and reliability you’ve come
to expect from Epson. But, like all the projectors in
Epson’s Commuter Series, it sacrifices absolutely
nothing in delivering superior image quality.
From the moment you fire up the PowerLite 500c,
you’ll get breathtaking color and sharp, easy-to-read
text. The three-LCD projection system generates
outstanding corner-to-corner brightness and superior
color saturation to single-chip processing, such as DLP.
Image quality, brightness and contrast ratio are so
superb you can use the PowerLite 500c in the most
challenging lighting conditions.
The PowerLite 500c is also equipped with the
strongest feature set in its class. Our exclusive
SizeWise™ technology supports resolutions up to SXGA
(1280 x 1024). And it’s also armed with ±15˚ keystone
correction, a zoom lens, a USB mouse port and a fullfeatured remote control. A digital comb filter and
picture-in-picture capability make it ideal for video
presentations.
Worried about setup? Don’t be. The PowerLite 500c
has a simple four button control panel which includes a
context sensitive help feature. In addition, an easy-tonavigate 3-D menu system offers a variety of interactive
set up features.
Even technical support is high performance. The
PowerLite 500c is backed by Epson’s exclusive
PrivateLine,SM a person-to-person support hotline.
Epson also offers a renowned Road Service
support program and an international
warranty for multi-national accounts.
The EPSON PowerLite 500c—
the superbright, superportable SVGA
projector that’s easy on the arms, easy
on the eyes and easy on the budget.
