Description
BenQ HT3050 Home Cinema Projector with Vertical Lens Shift & Rec 709 Manufacturer RFB – HT3050
Features
CinematicColor technology utilizes optimal color to bring out the most accurate and enhanced images to you. CinematicColor’s Rec.709 HDTV standard color coverage, 6x speed RGBRGB color wheel, high native ANSI contrast ratio performance and ISFccc visual calibration ensure an incredible image performance that delivers detailed, sharp and crisp visuals to accompany your home cinema enjoyment.
Of all DLP projector components, the color wheel has the greatest effect on color. Achieving perfect balance between color accuracy and brightness requires high precision and stringent quality control. Because even nanometer differences create great differences to color spectrum, BenQ CinematicColor uses precise nanometer-level references to test over 20 combinations of color wheel angle and coating. Each color wheel is carefully fabricated with high-pure-color coatings to meet Rec. 709 color gamut requirements and reproduce the true color of Hollywood films.
An ingenious solution that intensifies your viewing pleasure while saving money, SmartEco automatically adjusts lamp brightness based on content to project richer blacks and increase contrast for tiny text and subtle details.
Resonant chambers house 10-watt speakers precision tuned by BenQ sound engineers to maximize deep bass and soaring highs – all without wires. Four preset sound modes and an equalizer setting match the music and soundtrack of your choice to immerse you in total entertainment.
BenQ’s unique color management tool allows you to fine-tune the gain, saturation and hue of six primary colors (R/G/B/C/M/Y) individually. Now you can customize your colors to mimic nature, simulate faraway galaxies, and everything in between.
Vertical Lens Shift provides flexibility when installing or setting up the projector. Images can be shifted up and down without suffering a decrease in image quality.

BenQ Wireless Full HD Kit covers up to 100’* with four powerful antennas for crystal clear streaming, even through walls. Pairing with the projector via one-time setup and staying paired, the wireless kit’s zero latency delivers smooth video and gaming with virtually no lag, and dynamic frequency selection switches channels to ensure crisp, sharp streaming.
