Hitachi Introduces New 8000+ Series Projectors Offering Advanced Installation and System Features

	Hitachi 8000+ Series 3LD projector

Hitachi America, Ltd. digital media division announces the new 8000+ Series 3LD projectors to their high-end projector line up; CP-X8800, CP-WX8650, CP-WX8750, CP-WU8600, and CP-WU8700. The 8000+ Series projectors come with advanced installation and system features for a host of applications from corporate boardroom to large auditorium venues. All five models offer HDBaseT, multiple interchangeable lenses, accentualizer and High Dynamic Contrast Range (HDCR), image optimizer technology and 360-degree rotation.

Professional installation features include edge blending and warping that makes smooth projection possible on spherical surfaces and in corners without image distortion. 360-degree projection is available on all series models for greater installation possibilities. Projectors can be mounted at an angle including at 90-degrees for vertical projection. Other features include a seamless design for the HDBaseT and power cord, and multiple digital inputs that include HDBaseT, HDMI, and display port. 3G SDI is available in the CP-WU8700.

All five models are complete with color management technology that allows users to change hue, saturation, and luminance of the six colors (red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, and yellow) individually. This feature allows the user to isolate the colors to only change one specific color at a time. The accentualizer and HDCR also help by enhancing the shade, sharpness, and gloss of the projection while increasing the contrast to allow for high quality color projection in brightly lit rooms.

Every projector in the series provides superior video quality for screens 30" to 600" diagonal with lumens that range between 6,000 to 8,000 depending on the model. Resolution also varies by the model ranging from XGA 1024x768 to WUXGA 1920x1200. All models have a contrast ratio of 10,000:1.

The 8000+ Series projectors include Hitachi's Status Monitoring System that produces information about the projector's operational status in real-time on a rear panel LED screen. Additional advanced features also include motorized lens shift, zoom, and focus; center lens design; picture by picture; picture in picture and DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) simulation mode. Every model is equipped to be compatible with five interchangeable lenses suitable for various screen sizes and installation environments. The lenses include the FL-701, SL-712, ML-713, LL-704, and UL-705.

The 8000+ Series models are embedded with control capabilities compatible with Crestron Connected, AMX Device Discovery, and Extron XTP.
