Canon Portable LCD Projector Announced
July 29, 2004
Mississauga, ON - Canon Canada has announced the new LV-X4 micro-portable projector, with integrated a high-precision ultra wide-angle lens, 1.6x optical zoom, and short throw distance with the ability to display a 254-cm diagonal image from only 2.5 metres.
The new LV-X4 micro-portable projector, which will replace Canon’s existing LV-X2 model, weighs just 2.9 kg, features an XGA resolution of 1024 x 768 and supports an SXGA resolution through high-quality compression, the manufacturer describes. In addition, the LV-X4 unit offers improved brightness, featuring 1500 ANSI lumens, an increase from 1100 ANSI lumens offered with the LV-X2.
Additional features include a 400:1 contrast ratio, 90% image uniformity and digital keystone adjustment with +/-20 degrees (vertical). The new unit is also equipped with progressive scan circuitry, which converts 480i/575i signal to progressive, as well as the option for a customizable logo display. The LV-X4 projector operates at 36 dB in silent mode.
By connecting the new LV-X4 projector with a Canon camcorder or digital camera, users have the ability to create high-impact presentations for any environment. For added versatility, Canon’s LV-X4 projector can be connected to a variety of other devices including: desktop and laptop computers (using standard VGA input), document cameras, DVD players or VCRs, using S-Video and RCA terminals, or component via VGA to component adaptor cable.
A wireless remote control, user-friendly on-screen display menu, and available USB mouse control, enhance operation function and ease. The unit is also equipped with pin code and key lock functions, which prevent unauthorized users from using the projector.
The Canon LV-X4 projector will be available in September at authorized Canon dealers, with a manufacturer’s suggested list price of $2,800 (CDN).
