Good TCO and ECO-friendly Design
Long-lasting Lamp
By incorporating a newly developed high-performance lamp 
and advanced lamp-control technology, the VPL-FX30 offers 
the recommended lamp replacement time of approximately 
5,000 hours.*
* In Standard mode.
Low Power Consumption
The VPL-FX30 offers remarkably low power consumption, 
allowing users to make significant savings on electricity 
expenses.
ECO MODE Key
With a single push of the ECO MODE key on either the 
projector or the supplied Remote Commander™ unit, user 
can select energy-saving setting in the ECO Mode menu.
Convenient, Simple Projector Replacement
The standard 1.6x zoom lens enables installation flexibility when 
replacing an existing projector with the VPL-FX30 – there’s typically 
no need to change ceiling mount positions.  For applications 
where more than a standard lens is needed, the VPL-FX30 
is compatible with the optional VPLL-Z1024 and VPLL-Z1032 
accessory lenses designed for Sony’s current VPL-FX40 Series.
Centered Lens Design
The centered lens provides symmetry for a balanced 
installation, and makes set up very simple.

and horizontally from -33% through to +33%. Images can be 
easily adjusted to the desired settings during installation.
