With 5000 ISO lumens and a contrast ratio of 3000:1 the XGA-resolutionEpson PowerLite 1960 Multimedia Projectorhas the projection power to present large images in venues where ambient light would be a problem for lesser projectors. The horizontal keystone correction slider bar makes it easy to create a perfectly rectangular image no matter where you place the projector. Because of the 1.6x optical zoom, larger images can be displayed from shorter distances, saving valuable space in the classroom or boardroom.
However, it's a gentle giant that works and plays well with others. It's got an international 100 to 240 V AC 50/60Hz power supply and it can handle NTSC, PAL and SECAM TV signals. The 1960 is also PC friendly. You can plug your PC into the 1960's USB type B port and play both video and audio through the projector. All of those signals benefit from the bright and high contrast Epson 3LCD projector panel. 3LCD delivers clear and vibrant images so true to life you may not believe your eyes.
With direct power-on, you can set the 1960 to turn it on as soon as it's plugged into the wall socket. And with Epson's instant-off technology there is no cool down period. As soon as you turn the projector off you can pack it into its included carrying case and move on.
