Ultra Short-Throw Laser Design: The EpiqVision LS650 combines Epson's 3-chip/3LCD projector engine with an advanced ultra short-throw lens and a laser-array light source to produce incredible picture brightness, black contrast and color accuracy. Plus, thanks to its unique ultra short-throw lens, the EpiqVision LS650 laser projector can be placed mere inches from the wall and screen for easy - drastically reducing the throw distance.

• Full Color: The EpiqVision LS650 reproduce up to 1.07 billion colors with 100% color brightness and 10-bit color processing for outstanding accuracy and vibrancy giving you an exceptionally rich and vivid picture.
• Dynamic Contrast: Taking full advantage of the Laser Array Light Source, LS650 projector is capable of a dynamic contrast ratio up to 2,500,000:1 for rich detail in dark scenes. You can even turn on the Dynamic Contrast setting to automatically optimize the image luminance to improve the image contrast based on the brightness of the content you project.
• High Brightness: The Laser Array Light Source also offers impressive 3,600 lumens of color and 3,600 lumens of white brightness for an exceptional picture in virtually any theater environment - even in rooms with some ambient light. Color brightness (color light output) and white brightness (white light output) will vary depending on usage conditions. Color light output measured in accordance with IDMS 15.4; white light output measured in accordance with ISO 21118.

3LCD: The Epson EpiqVision LS650 projector utilizes 3-chip LCD technology for amazing color, incredible detail and solid reliability. 3LCD's 3-chip architecture dedicates an entire chip to process each primary color - red, green, and blue, continuously. Unlike single-chip technology that delivers color sequentially, you get full-time color. The result is vibrant, realistic images and video all delivered with 3LCD's true-to-life color.

• True-to-Life Colors: 3LCD delivers up to 3x brighter colors in comparison with 1-chip DLP projectors. Color Brightness (Color Light Output) measured in accordance with IDMS 15.4. Color Brightness will vary depending on usage conditions. Additionally, 3LCD projectors have up to 3x Wider Color Gamut than 1-chip DLP projectors. With its 3-chip design, 3LCD delivers clear and vibrant images that are true-to-life. In contrast to 3-chip 3LCD projectors, 1-chip DLP projectors use a rotating color wheel that spins at a rapid speed, only displaying colors sequentially, which can result in color break-up or the "rainbow effect".
• Greater Detail & Contrast: 3LCD projection efficiently uses light to project to the screen with no color disruption. 3LCD technology delivers sharper and brighter images with superior gray-scale detail. Gray-scale is the shades of gray (from black to white) required for greater image depth and detail; it allows greater variation in shadows and brings superior accuracy to color, creating a jaw-dropping, true-to-life visual experience
• Energy Efficient: 3LCD projection technology uses light efficiently to create stunning images. In contrast to 1-chip technology, 3LCD requires 25% less electricity per lumen of brightness. 1-chip projectors use a color wheel, which leads to an inefficient design, thereby causing light loss. 3LCD does not rely on a color wheel. On average, 3LCD projectors are 25% more energy efficient.
• Simple & Reliable Design: 3LCD systems are reliable and use a simple optical design which includes 3 chips and 1 prism. Light flows seamlessly through the system to produce brilliant on-screen colors and sharp images every time.
