DLA-RS2200 Native 4K D-ILA Front Projector

The DLA-RS2200 is the worlds smallest 4K D-ILA projector available today*. The projector has been completely redesigned and includes a new casing, optical unit, lens system and circuit boards. Using JVC's proprietary BLU-Escent Laser light source with 2,300 lumens and Native 4K D-ILA devices to display 4,096 x 2,160 pixel images and a 40,000:1 Native contrast ratio. This projector features Gen2 Frame Adapt HDR to get the most out of HDR content, and vivid mode to display SDR content such as animations to satisfy a variety of users.

Exceptional Contrast, High Brightness, and Superior Resolution JVC Delivers Visual Excellence and Total Immersion

Third-generation, Native 4K D-ILA Device 8,192 x 4,320 pixels D-ILA device is the heart of projectors that plays an important role in projecting beautiful images. Device perfection continues to date – the third generation (Gen3) 0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA device has improved its alignment control of liquid crystals and enhanced the flatness of image pixels to offer 1.5-times* the native contrast ratio on the DLA-RS4200 compared to the Gen2 device.

Unparalleled Black Level and High Luminance The DLA-RS4200 boasts the industry’s highest native contrast of 150,000:1* with the Gen3 0.69-inch 4K D-ILA device and wire-grid optical engine, however in combination with the dynamic laser light control, which analyzes the incoming video signal to automatically control the amount of outgoing laser light, a dynamic contrast level of ∞:1 (infinity to 1) can be achieved in scenes with pitch blackness by completely shutting off the light source.

Light Source for Exceptional Brightness Another essential aspect of projectors lies in their light source. JVC’s D-ILA projectors feature “BLUEscent Laser” light source to achieve exceptional peak brightness of 3,300 lumens on the DLA-RS4200 and 2,700 lumens on the DLA-RS3200, both with longevity of 20,000 hours. Power efficiency improvements made on the BLU-Escent Laser also contributes to saving power.
