FEATURES
High-Quality Images and Incredible
Performance
Outstanding Brightness of 4000 ANSI
Lumens in a Beautifully Styled Projector
Both the Sony VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 Data
Projectors achieve an outstanding brightness of 4000
ANSI lumens for dynamic, large-screen presentations
even in high ambient lighting environments.  By
combining a new generation of inorganic LCD panels
that utilize Sony BrightEra
TM
technology
*3
with a
powerful 275W lamp, these beautifully styled
projectors are excellent for bringing your
presentations to life.

BrightEra" is a brand name for the category of next
generation LCD panels having pixels with large aperture
ratios and adopting inorganic alignment films.  Sony is the
first manufacturer to succeed in developing this technology
for a High-Temperature Polysilicon (HTPS)  TFT LCD panel.
Extremely High Resolution (SXGA+ or XGA)
Offering native SXGA+ (1400 x 1050) resolution, the
VPL-FE40 projects extremely clear and detailed high-
quality images even on a large screen.  And the 
VPL-FX40 offers native XGA (1024 x 768) resolution
for high picture quality.
3LCD Projection System
Because the VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 adopt a 3LCD
projection system, projected images are bright and
natural.  3LCD is a projection system using three LCD
panels (also known as high-temperature polysilicon or
HTPS).  This system provides high light transmission
and excellent color reproduction.  It also provides
smooth gradients in dark areas, and even helps
prevent color breakup.
Dynamic Detail Enhancer (DDE) for High-
Quality Video Images
This unique Sony video-enhancing technology
incorporated in the VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40
projectors generates high-quality images of
outstanding clarity.  For interlaced video sources, I/P
(Interlace/Progressive) conversion is applied to the
signals to project clear and sharp progressive images.
When displaying film-originated sources, signals
converted by 2-3/2-2 pull down are detected, and
each frame of the original film is accurately
reproduced.  
12-bit 3D Gamma Correction and 3D Digital
Comb Filter
The VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 projectors incorporate
12-bit 3D Gamma Correction circuitry to perform
highly accurate gamma correction, achieving uniform
image color and brightness that extends right to the
corners of the screen.  What‘s more, the 3D Digital
Comb Filter separates Y signals from C signals with
great accuracy, which emphasizes fine images and
shape boundaries.
