Sony has introduced a new HD projector and believes it will "re-create the cinematic experience". If this is true can’t be said yet, but let the company’s press release be the first step to judge whether it has enough features to stun the real "home cinema enthusiast".

The new BRAVIA VPL-VW80 SXRD projector is supposed to be the next step in home entertainment. Sony believes that the "fine-grained" 1080p Full HD viewing experience will persuade movie and game buffs to buy the SXRD projector.

Offering High Frame Rate SXRD that operates at a rate of 100fps combined with Motionflow Dark Frame Insertion should re-create the promised cinematic experience. Motionflow works by creating intermediate frames from the original video source and inserting them to double the number of images displayed every second.

Besides these features the projector supports Deep Colour technology, a technology that increases the number of colours available within its given boundaries. Without getting to technical this technology is supposed to increase your experience and is best enjoyed with a next-gen gaming console.

So, if this projector is made for you depends on a few things… Are a real home cinema enthusiast, ready to drop some money and the proud owner of a next-gen gaming console? Yes? Well, according to the press release this projector should fit you…

If it really will "re-create the cinematic experience", then you ought to be able to buy over-priced refreshments from it.

If the VW70 is $8000, then I can only imagine how much this is going to be, $9999 maybe? Hmmm, I think I will pass.

In addition to the 10 grand or so, if you didn't have your own teenagers, you would have to hire some to sit behind you and talk loudly throughout the movie, in order to truly "re-create the cinematic experience".

Don't forget...

The back kicker.
The smelly food.
The noisy food and drink.
The crying baby.
The cellphones.
People who have to visit the toilets.
Coughing and sneezing.
Stupid annoying laughter.

ADVERTS AND TRAILERS!

Not to mention the quality of the print.

Out of focus.
Not centered correctly on the screen.
Screen with damage.
Speckled print.
Tramlines on the print.
Jitter.
Panning judder.
Poor color reproduction.
Broken speakers.
Surround sound that is a mess.
Flickering projector lamp.

Oh and of course overpriced tickets.

The Panasonic PT-AE2000U does a very decent job. However the upcoming PT-AE3000U for US$3,500 is the Ultimate Super Projector and will effortlessly trump Sony BRAVIA whatever.
