Optoma HD28HDR

Features

DLP Projector: The Optoma HD28HDR projector incorporates DLP technology from Texas Instruments (TI), which creates razor sharp pictures and amazing videos with incredible colors and brightness, while also providing reliability and longevity. It can be used with 30" to 300" screen sizes.

• DLP is a reflective technology and can deliver images with both high native ANSI contrast (50,000:1) and exceptional brightness (3600 lumens), creating a picture that is natural and life-like.
• Video and graphics produced by the latest DLP technology are sharper because the mirrors on the DLP chip are so close together that the gaps between pixels in an image are less noticeable. Spaced less than one micron apart, its mirrors create a crisp, detailed image.
• The inherent speed of DLP technology means that Optoma projector can output video and images at an astonishing rate of 120Hz for clear, seamless motion.

240W Lamp: The Optoma DLP projector utilizes a user-replaceable 240W lamp for high brightness and long-lasting life. The 240W lamp delivers high brightness (3600 lumens) for a vibrant image in well-lit environments (with no direct sunlight or lights directed on the screen). It has a lamp life of 15,000 hours (ECO) / 10,000 hours (Dynamic), or 4,000 hours (Bright). You can order a replacement lamp from Optoma by entering the serial number of your projector here.

Projection Lens: The Optoma HD28HDR features a F2.1-F2.31 projection lens with a focal length of 15.99mm to 17.14mm. The projection lens offers an optical (1:1x) and digital (0.8-2.0x) zoom with a manual zoom lever and focus ring to make sure your projected image looks great on screen. To adjust the image size, turn the zoom lever clockwise or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the projected image size. To adjust the focus, turn the focus ring clockwise or counterclockwise until the image is sharp and detailed. The projector will focus at a distance of 3.3' to 32.15'.

• Image Shift: Image Shift electronically adjusts the projected image position horizontally or vertically (this is not true Lens Shift where the actual lens moves).
• Keystone Correction: Keystone Correction adjusts the image distortion caused by tilting the projector. It has a manual vertical keystone correction of +/- 40 degrees.

1080p Native Resolution: 1080p resolution gives you sharp and detailed images from HD content without downscaling or compression; perfect for watching Blu-ray movies, HD broadcasting and playing video games. Most movies are shot at 24 frames per second (fps). To preserve the purity of the original image, The Optoma DLP projector can accept high definition sources at 24 fps to display movies exactly as the director intended.

• BrilliantColor: The Optoma HD28HDR DLP projector lets you watch your movies, TV shows, and play games with vivid colors. Its capable of reproducing the Rec.709 color gamut (over 1.07 billion colors), the international HDTV standard to guarantee accurate reproduction of cinematic color exactly as the director intended. BrilliantColor technology utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and enhancements to enable higher brightness while providing true, more vibrant colors in picture.
• Dynamic Black Technology: Dynamic Black Technology gives more depth to your image by smoothly adjusting the lamp output, based on the brightness information of each frame. As a result, the Optoma HD28HDR DLP projector can create a stunning high contrast ratio of 50,000:1. Bright scenes appear crisp and clear, while dark scenes remain detailed with deep blacks and exceptional light and shade detail.

The projector should be placed flat on a surface and 90-degrees (perpendicular) to the screen. The projector is equipped with three adjustable feet for adjusting the image height when installing the projector on a tabletop. There are three M4 threaded inserts on the bottom of the projector to attach a ceiling mount bracket (sold separately).

• The tilt angle of the projector should not exceed 15 degrees, nor should the projector be installed in any way other than the tabletop and ceiling mount, otherwise lamp life could decrease dramatically, and may lead to other unpredictable damages.
• Allow at least 11.8125" on both the left and right sides of the projector, as well as allow at least 3.9375" above and behind the projector for proper ventilation.

Note: Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you select. Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of a suitable power outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector and the rest of your audio/video equipment.

Projection Distance: The further away the projector is placed from the screen the projected image size increases and vertical offset also increases proportionally. See chart below for recommended projector distance based on size of screen; or use the Optoma Projection Calculator to assist you with placement of the projector.

Sleep Timer: A Sleep Timer allows you to set the projector to automatically turn off after a predetermined set amount of time.

Auto Power Off: There may be instances when the projector is left running when not in use. To help save energy, the Auto Power Off feature automatically turns off the projector after a set period of time if it is not being used.

Detachable AC Power Cord: The Optoma HD28HDR DLP projector comes with a detachable 6' IEC 3-prong power cord that will need to be plugged into an AC wall outlet; preferably a surge protected AC outlet.
