20 June 2008 16:33 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz | 1 comment

InFocus has announced its latest projector for the UK, the X10 which is capable of Full HD 1080p and features a 16:9 native aspect ratio as well as a contrast ratio of 2500:1 that can be increased to 7500:1 using the company's special Active Iris lens.

The projector's 300W lamp gets a 1200 lumens brightness rating and has an expected 2000 hours of operation. The "1.2:1 fixed lens is able to create a clear image up to nearly 17 feet, or over 200 inches. Vertical Digital Keystone Correction is adjustable up to 13 degrees. The The DarkChip1 DLP chipset was sourced from Texas Instruments and the DLP color wheel is a 7-segment unit, calibrated to the D65K color accuracy standard," reads reports.

As is now standard, the projector will have an HDMI 1.3 input, an M1-DA port that can use DVI-D, VGA, HDMI and component video through adapters and and an RS-232 jack.

There was no word on release date but it was revealed the X10 will cost about about $4200 USD, so about the equivalent of 2100 in the UK.

$4200 isn't too bad, however I think I would hold off until reviews come in before dropping the coin on this (or really any) projector. [ + quote]
