As 2010 draws to an end, the most important names in the A/V industry are already starting to gear up for 2011, this also being the case with Epson, who's just announced the addition to the PowerLite Pro G-series installation projector line of two new professional projectors, bound to become available in early 2011, namely the PowerLite Pro G5450WUNL and G5750WUNL models.

The PowerLite Pro G5450WUNL and G5750WUNL are WUXGA projectors, delivering 1920 x 1200 native resolution, and also deliver a very good brightness level, the PowerLite Pro G5450WUNL reaching 4,000 lumens of color and white light output and the PowerLite Pro G5750WUNL hitting 4,500 lumens of color and white light output.

These new projectors offer the same advanced features as all PowerLite Pro G-series units, including 3LCD, 3-chip technology, closed captioning, functional design elements including simple lamp and air filter replacement, optional wireless, digital connectivity with HDMI and DVI-D, centered lens design, an impressive range of horizontal and vertical lens shift, Quick Corner for easy image positioning, off-axis tilt function for installation flexibility, and five optional lenses including a rear-projection lens.

Other technologies packed by the two new Epson projectors include the Six-Axis Color Adjustment system, Advanced Sharpness, Split Screen, Multi-PC Projection, Crestron RoomView Enableing, as well as Network Content Distribution.

Naturally, they also offer plenty of advanced connectivity options, including two digital inputs, HDMI and DVI-D, a computer VGA port, two audio-in, USB, Hardwire remote, five BNC, Monitor Out, RS-232, and optional Quick-Connect Wireless.

"Ideal for creative, defense, engineering, and medical industries, the addition of these two WUXGA resolution models perfectly rounds out the Epson PowerLite Pro G-Series line to deliver true high-definition quality," said Sean Gunduz, product manager, Projectors, Epson America, adding that "in addition, these models deliver cutting-edge technology with improved image quality, reliability, and networking advancements that are necessary for high-end installations."

The PowerLite Pro G5450WUNL will sell for around $3,999, while the Pro G5750WUNL has a MSRP set at around $4,999, both of which slated to become available at some point in January 2011 through pro audio/visual dealers.
