Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Optoma EP770 may be just the multimedia projector you need for your entertainment room, your next business presentation or perhaps both. At its heart is a single chip 0.7-inch DLP engine, which creates sharp, detailed images. The projector puts out 3,000 lumens of brightness and can focus an image at distances between four and 40 feet.

Projects an image up to 20 feet in size

Image Processing
The 3,000 lumens are delivered by a 220-watt UHP lamp that's rated to last for 3,000 hours in economy mode, 2,000 hours in standard mode. It has a 2000:1 contrast ratio--the difference in brightness between its darkest and brightest pixels--which is pretty much par for other DLP projectors in its price class. It features advanced digital keystone correction and full screen image re-scaling.

PC, Macintosh, and HDTV Compatible
The Optoma EP770 is a true XGA display (1024 x 768 addressable pixels) compatible with both PC and Macintosh graphics cards. It can also display SXGA images through compression.

It supports 720p and 1080i HDTV sources, too, through a HDCP compliant DVI-D port. While it doesn't support HDMI connections out of the box, it can be done through a separately sold adapter. It also supports lower-resolution sources, such as 480i/p and 576i/p, as well as analog NTSC, PAL, and SECAM sources through S-video and composite video ports. There's also a VGA loop-through port, which would allow you to see the signal simultaneously on another screen.

Other Features
It comes with a full-function remote control, multilingual on-screen display menu, a user-friendly control panel, and adjustable-speed cooling fan. It measures 10.4-by-4.11-by-9.3 inches and weighs just 5.3 pounds.

What's in the Box
Projector with lens cap, power cord (1.8m), VGA cable (1.8m), composite video cable (2m), remote control, 2 AA-size batteries, carrying case, SCART RGB/S-Video adaptor, user's guide, quick-start guide, warranty card.

Product Description

The all-new Lightweight EP770 from Optoma follows in the footsteps of the award winning EP739H. Now redesigned and enhanced, this versatile high specification multi-media projector is equally at home in boardrooms, the classroom and on the road.

This review is from: Optoma EP770 Multimedia Data Projector, XGA 3000 lumens, HDtv ready,5.3 Lbs (Office Product)

I haven't been too happy with this unit. It is no where near as bright as a lot of the 3000 lumen projectors I have had in the past. With a computer image the clarity has not been very good either. I am looking to replace it with a different type of projector.

Provides a much better image then I had hoped for. Very sharp and bright regardless of magnification. I am extremely happy with the item.
