Product Description

Manufacturer Description

The revolutionary CP-A100 3LCD projector features a very short throw distance, eliminating the problem of presenters obstructing the projected image by standing in front of the screen. Additionally, the CP-A100 offers networking capability, allowing multiple projectors to be controlled and monitored from a single location.

The CP-A100 boasts an extremely short throw distance; at 1.4 feet you can project a 60-inch image. This not only prevents image obstruction, but also means there are no shadows interfering with the image and no light in the presenter's face. The versatile CP-A100 can be placed vertically as well as horizontally, as well as inverted for ceiling mount applications, making positioning of the projector more convenient.

Adding to the user's convenience is the network connectivity of the CP-A100, which allows for simultaneous monitoring and control of several projectors from a remote location. This is particularly beneficial in schools and large corporate environments, where projectors are located throughout a facility and the monitoring of each projector is a time-consuming ordeal. With the benefits of networking technology, a technician can monitor details such as lamp life for each projector from his/her computer. Additionally, the CP-A100's performance stands alone among competitive models. It offers a brightness of 2,500 ANSI lumens, XGA resolution and a 500:1 contrast ratio.

The CP-A100 addresses the issue of security with functions such as multilevel PIN locks, a security bar and a Kensington slot. Moreover, the CP-A100 is easy to use, featuring advanced connectivity and proprietary Hitachi functions including My Buttons, Input Source Naming and My Text. The CP-A100's E-Shot feature allows users to transfer up to four still images from a computer to the projector.

Easy maintenance is another attractive function of the CP-A100, as its lamp door is on top of the model, and the filter is located on the back, allowing for easy access. The CP-A100 offers additional versatility with its Whiteboard, Blackboard or Day Time Modes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best projector for us, January 21, 2010

This review is from: Hitachi CP-A100 XGA 2500 Lumens 12.8Lbs Ultra Short Throw 3LCD Projector (Electronics)

This projector performs well. Outstanding short throw. We use it in a 70 foot deep by 28 foot wide classroom with the projector screen on one of the 28 foot walls. The projector needs to be about 1.5 feet from the screen to project a 6 foot wide image. NEVER have a problem with walking between projector and screen. You will need to place the projector at approximately the same height as the bottom of the screen. Image is clear and bright, even with full ambient lighting. Lightweight..2 video inputs so we can switch from computer to computer.

Really like the ability to "mute" the projection.

Have used for 165 hours.

Only drawback is it has a larger footprint.

Recommend putting a no-slip carpet backing between projector and table to prevent slippage.
