Sony - VPL-FHZ85/1

The VPL-FHZ85 is a compact and lightweight 3LCD laser projector designed to deliver bright, colorful images even in brightly lit environments.

With a brightness of 7300 lumens (8000 at the center) and WUXGA resolution, it offers high-level performance across a variety of applications. Bright View technology ensures vivid colors without sacrificing brightness, while the Reality Creation system improves the sharpness of text and images, bringing output closer to 4K quality. Thanks to intelligent settings with an ambient light sensor, the projector automatically adapts brightness, contrast and color rendering to room conditions, optimizing the viewing experience. It supports 16:10, 16:9, and 21:9 aspect ratios, making it ideal for hybrid meetings on ultra-wide screens. The 4K 60p input allows for fluid high-resolution content, while the range of optional lenses and wide vertical and horizontal lens shift ensure installation flexibility.

The understated, slim design easily integrates into any environment, and maintenance is reduced thanks to the automatic filter cleaning system and the dust-sealed laser source, which ensures up to 20,000 hours of operation.

In short, the VPL-FHZ85 combines visual power, reliability, and versatility, offering a professional solution for those seeking quality and practicality in a next-generation projector.
