* From centre of mirror to screen

• 3LCD
  A sophisticated, innovative technology that utilises 3 chips to deliver vibrant, true-to-life and consistent images for the most demanding audiences.
• Hybrid Filter
  The Hybrid Filter lasts for more than 4000 hours, ten times longer than conventional filters. This extension in maintenance intervals reduces the overall cost of ownership significantly.
• Security features
  Advanced security features include Multi-Level PIN-Lock, Transition Detector, steel security bar, Kensington Lock and prominent security labels.
• Blackboard/Whiteboard Mode
  Projecting onto coloured or shiny backgrounds can make images appear either dull or uncomfortably bright. This mode ensures optimal brightness whether the screen is black, green or shiny white.
• Low TCO
  Significantly extended maintenance intervals resulting from long-life parts reduces the total cost of ownership.
• Advanced Networking
  Manage and control multiple projectors over LAN. Turn the projector on and off, schedule email alerts and monitor projectors all via the network.
• AMX Device Discovery
  When integrated with an AMX Controller, the relevant communication modules and drivers are downloaded to the projector automatically.
• HD Ready
  High Definition (HD) uses the latest technology to deliver clearer and sharper images. HD Ready indicates that this product is ready for high definition broadcasts.
• HDMI
  Get the highest quality image by connecting the latest in A/V equipment to the projector with HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface).
• Template Function
  This unique Hitachi feature allows you to project different patterns of lines and grids onto a whiteboard, blackboard or flip chart, making writing and drawing easier.
• Virtually Maintenance Free
  Hitachi projectors are designed to be easy to use and require minimal maintenance. Long-life parts significantly extend the maintenance intervals, reducing cost and any inconvenience.
• Daytime Mode
  It can be harder to see a projected picture when the sun is shining brightly. Projections are always vivid and colourful in a bright environment with Daytime Mode.
• Quick On/Off
  Plug in, turn on and present. The Quick On/Off feature and automatic resolution equals fast set-up
• Input Source Naming
  Personalise devices and inputs to the projector - for example, re-name a device input to "Tom's Laptop" for easy recognition.
• Ultra Quiet
  With a low noise level of 29dB in our latest models, the internal fan is one of the quietest in its class. The audience will hear the presenter, not the operating noise of the projector.
• My Button
  Assign custom functions or common tasks to a programmable button on your remote control.
• Messenger
  Send text messages and announcements to multiple, networked projectors at the same time. This is ideal for projecting daily work schedules and university campus notifications to multiple classrooms simultaneously.
• Audio Pass Through
  When all you need is sound and not pictures, this convenient feature lets you hear the projector's speakers whilst the rest is on stand-by - helping to preserve lamplife.
• Vertical Keystone Correction
  Correct misaligned images automatically with vertical keystone correction.
• Progressive Scan
  Typically with moving images, each frame of video is shown in two halves - odd lines and even lines. Progressive Scan enables every line of a video frame to be displayed simultaneously resulting in crisp, smooth motion and reduced flicker and judder.
• On Screen Display (OSD)
  The new menu is much easier to use. Navigating through the different options is easier, whilst settings are clearly named.
