Features
The Image Sharpness of SXGA+: Razor-sharp images are yours with Canon's new Realis SX50 projector. Going beyond XGA and SXGA, the SX50's SXGA+ gives you the stunning crispness of 1400 x 1050 lines of resolution - letting you keep pace with the increasing resolution of your notebook computer.
The Image Sharpness and Brightness of LCOS (Liquid Crystal On Silicon) Technology: With Canon's first LCOS projector, you get all the brilliance and image sharpness of LCOS technology, but in a portable and affordable projector unlike any other on the market.
AISYS, The Heart Of The SX50: Behind the crisp, bright images of the Realis SX50 is the heart of the projector: Canon's exclusive AISYS technology. While other projectors come with LCOS technology, only Canon combines LCOS with its innovative, breakthrough AISYS illumination technology.
More Brilliance: When you have to project over large distances or in a bright setting, the SX50 has the power you need. Not only does it feature the bright performance of LCOS and AISYS technology, it's also packing an impressive 2500 ANSI lumens.
Optical Quality and Versatility: Project a positive image with Genuine Canon Optics. As with every camera or projector that Canon makes, the Realis SX50 comes with optics of unparalleled excellence that give you a bright, crisp, clear image with no flare or distortion.
The 1.7x Ultra-Wide Zoom Lens lets you project in a variety of settings. It gives you a 40" screen from a very short 3.9', all the way to a 100" screen from 9.8'. And if that's not enough, the Digital Zoom feature gives you an additional zoom range of .5X to 12X.
A Mode for Any Image: Standard mode gives you images closely resembling the original, Presentation mode increases contrast between bright and dark areas, sRGB mode is optimized for sRGB images, Cinema mode emphasizes gradation to produce realistic depth and dimension.
Complete Color Control: With Memory/Vivid Color Correction, you can adjust the degree of vividness of each of the primary colors (red, green, blue) and each of the secondary colors (cyan, magenta, yellow). Choose between low, medium and high to project the image the way you remember it.
