The VPL-FH500L's outstanding portfolio of features allows it to offer class-leading projection performance even in the most challenging of environments. Its 7,000-lumen color light output brightness, its zoom and its wide lens shift range, allow it to deliver the clearest image where other projectors would struggle - even in high ambient light. Once installed, the VPL-FH500L has excellent image capabilities and a long lifespan that delivers low total cost of ownership. Sony's BrightEra technology improves and maintains color purity throughout the life of the system by protecting the LCD panels against harmful ultra violet light.
