Sony VPL-P501 series laser projectors short review

Sony launched a new upgraded version of the popular laser projector star model P500 series VPL-P501 series, including VPL-P501HZ, VPL-P501WZ, VPL-P501XZ three models, officially launched in July. Compared with the previous generation, the contrast ratio of the new product is increased to 3,000,000:1, and a separate network port is added. In addition to continuing to support the original HDBaseT function, it also supports Extron XTP. Among them, VPL-P501HZ and VPL-P501WZ two centers The brightness is up to 5200lm.

Sony VPL-P501 series laser projectors short review

The VPL-P501 series laser projectors still uses the 3LCD optical system and laser light source. The blue laser light emitted by the light engine excites the phosphor material to produce white light, which is then processed by the 3LCD optical system to produce constant and vibrating RGB colors, which is more eye-protective and stable and high brightness to meet the needs of commercial and educational applications.

Sony P series laser projectors have been launched for nearly 3 years, and have consistently performed well in the 5000lm market. The upgraded new products maintain high brightness. Among them, the central brightness of the VPL-P501HZ and VPL-P501WZ is 5200lm, and the brightness of the VPL-P501XZ is 5000lm. At the same time, the machine also has multiple brightness adjustment functions to reduce energy consumption and extend the life of the projector.

Automatic brightness adjustment: Automatically adjust the output brightness of the light source according to the brightness of the image. When projecting a dark image, it can avoid unnecessary power loss.

The brightness of the light source is dimmed: When the input signal does not change for 10 seconds, the brightness will be automatically dimmed by about 15%. After a preset period of time, if there is no operation, it will automatically detect the signal and dim the brightness to 5% of the initial brightness to reduce consumption.

VPL-P501 series laser projectors are equipped with and optimized many Sony image processing functions, so that the machine can achieve delicate and subtle image quality performance.

True creation: It can restore and supplement the lost part of the original signal transmission, make the output image sharper, and improve the texture details of the image.

Contrast enhancement
: It can automatically adjust the image contrast, compensate for the dark and bright parts, optimize the image, and enhance the contrast.

Color calibration: high-quality color reproduction can also be achieved after long-term use.

VPL-P501 series laser projectors further enhance the integration function, equipped with dual HDMI ports and HDBaseT interface (also supports Extron XTP), through a network cable to achieve a variety of signal transmission. In addition, the IP control synchronization function can realize the simultaneous control of multiple products, which is easy to operate. The knob-type design makes it easy to adjust and zoom the lens without additional tools.

At the same time, the VPL-P501 series laser projectors also support intelligent scene setting functions, including three options: meeting room/classroom, museum and entertainment. After the user selects the corresponding mode according to the usage environment, the machine will automatically optimize the brightness, cooling system and other function settings, adjust to the best use of the current environment.
