Yamaha Yamaha Upgrades Their DLP Digital Cinema Projector for the Ultimate in Home Entertainment Performance
by Giles Communications for Yamaha

Yamaha

Other noteworthy technologies include highly detailed scaling processing; jaggy reduction for HD sources by Multi-Direction Diagonal Filter (MDDF); highly advanced noise reduction, which judges the noise by pixel through Temporal Recursive Noise Reduction (TRNR); and high quality keystone correction by geometry engine (eWARP-2). In addition, Yamaha has incorporated two new technologies to further improve DVD picture quality: Mosquito Noise Reduction and a newly developed Yamaha Overshoot Suppressor.

The projector has a high-resolution lens (F = 2.7-5.0) that maintains resolution sensitivity to the edge of the lens. Four anomalous dispersion glass components have halved chromatic aberration while maintaining a short focal point and high magnification zoom.

The DPX-1300’s color wheel has seven segments with an ND filter-equipped green segment that provides a more true-to-life picture than ever before. Green resolution is 10-bit, which also significantly improves the representation of black tones.

Installation of the DPX-1300 is easy and versatile. A short focal length of 3m (100" 16:9) and high magnification with a zoom ratio of 1.6x facilitate installation. Motorized vertical lens shift is ±50% of projection height and iris, zoom and focus adjustments are also motorized.

The projector is user-friendly, and offers a one-line menu with a graphical menu configuration that keeps operation simple. Other features include Smart Zoom for projecting 4:3 sources onto a full 16:9 screen, Cinema Zoom for eliminating black bars on images wider than 16:9, six memories for each input, variable lamp power control, operation lock function, automatic aspect conversion, powerful trigger out (12V, 200mA) for flexible custom installation system design, and HDMI and DVI input for digital video connection.
