HC7000 LCD Home Theater Projector
SRRP: $5,999.99
BDT Code: 120317
The HC7000 Home Theater Projector is setting the industry standard for image quality. Better black levels are a key to the home theater experience, and this high definition projector features new black optimization technologies that generates amazing image quality. It includes the latest LCD technology and HQV processor for the sharpest definition to image details. It’s designed with organic LCD panels to produce a stunning viewing experience. With exclusive algorithms to control its dynamic iris, it generates a sharp 72000:1 contrast ratio and is ultra-quiet at only a 17dBA noise level (low mode)

 HC7000 Features


Experiencing Is Believing: The Ultimate in Black Color Reproduction

Newly Developed Diamond Black Iris with 1/60-second Iris Control
Evolutionary advancements in the HC7000 include the adoption of Mitsubishi's original Diamond Black Iris technology. The iris section takes on a "diamond-cut" shape that prevents light refraction and realizes an enhanced level of contrast. True blacks are clearly depicted even during sequences of continual bright-dark scene intervals, ensuring the reproduction of every detail with vivid clarity. Combined together with Mitsubishi's innovative contrast control, a perfect balance between blacks, the brightest whites and the full color spectrum in between is achieved.

Extra-low Dispersion Glass Lens for Superior High-definition Resolutio
Superior image reproduction is provided using a 17-piece/14 cluster optical system equipped with extra-low dispersion (ED) lenses. Far exceeding the performance of conventional glass lenses, chromatic aberration is virtually eliminated and resolution across the entire screen, including the peripheral edges, is improved. Equipped with a fixed aperture, reproduction of every shade, from grays to the deepest of blacks, is ensured.

New Optics Compensation Panel Realizes Precise Light Focusing and an Amazing Level of High-contrast Images
Conventional projectors commonly have problems related to loss of light intensity; not so with the HC7000. Degraded polarization results from the offset position of the liquid crystal elements. An optical compensation panel has been newly developed and installed between the liquid crystal panel and polarization filter. This panel corrects the optical projection angle and prevents light leakage, thereby preserving the intensity and realizing new heights in the level of contrast. Together with our high-speed Diamond Black Iris, a high contrast of 72000:1 is achieved for the HC7000.

Innovative Liquid Crystal Panel Cooling System Design Realizes Industry-leading Quiet Operation - 17dBA (at low mode)
A new cooling system is introduced for the liquid crystal panel. It includes a new cooling duct design for the new chassis, a smaller fan motor and a large (low-noise) sirocco fan. As a result, a larger air-intake area is secured and the fan operates at a slower speed, providing improved cooling efficiency owing to the hermetic performance of the new chassis. The end result is industry-leading quiet operation of 17dBA (at low mode). Mitsubishi always aims to produce the quietest projectors in the market.

True-to-life Images That Excite the Five Senses

Precision Enhanced with the Addition of Fixed Film/Video Mode to the "Reon-VX" IC from Silicon Optics Inc.

HQV
Reon-VX: Next-generation high-performance video processor
Successor to the REALTA IC manufactured by Silicon Optics Inc., renowned for its IC solutions that deliver Hollywood Quality Video (HQV), this high-quality chip is the key to improved image reproduction.

High-precision I/P conversion for all signal sources
Precise and accurate rendering is what you get with Mitsubishi's 10-bit interlace/progressive (I/P) conversion image processing technology. Be it terrestrial digital, broadcast satellite movies, mixed video sources or even commercially packaged media, the end result is always the progressive reproduction of high picture quality.

>High-performance video scaler
This ultra-precise image scaling function guarantees superior pixel conversion processing when converting resolution up from 720x480p to 1920x1080p. A unique filtering technique enables adaptive switching to a total of 1024 filter tabs each horizontally and vertically, further contributing to the high-definition picture quality of the images. Our Fixed Film/Video Mode greatly improves conversion precision.

14-bit Digital Gamma Correction
Mitsubishi's original 14-bit gamma correction processing function expands gradation expression power 16-fold over the conventional 10-bit technology. This dramatically raises the projector's ability to reproduce the subtleties in dark images.

1.6X Power Zoom/Focus Dramatically Improves High-definition Resolution and Set-up Ease
Using the 100-type size (16:9) enables not only the adjustment of projection distance from 3.1m to 5.0m, but also brilliant crystal-clear images in tight spots where sufficient distance to the screen cannot be kept. With a vertical lens shift range of 75% and horizontal range of 5%, installation is simple and easy. Two-stage adjustment, quick and fine, has been added to the power drive to enhance usability.

Full High-definition Liquid Crystal Panel (1920x1080)
An inorganic liquid-crystal panel is incorporated, creating deep rich blacks and eliminating the need for the rubbing process. This realizes the reproduction of vivid high-definition images with no vertical lines. The rate panel service life is approximately tenfold that of organic film panels, translating into years of high picture quality viewing enjoyment.

24P Blu-ray Direct Input Compatibility - Reproduction of Original Image Motion
The HC7000 is compatible with Blu-ray 24P direct output. Thanks to an output of up to 48P (96Hz liquid crystal panel driver), twice the speed of conventional movie signals (24 frames/sec), unbelievably life-like images are reproduced with a smoothness and texture detail that mirror the original.

2-3 Pulldown
When processing 24 frames/sec images at 60 frames/sec, smooth motion becomes distorted because the signals in the 2- and 3-frame sequences cause overflow into the third B-frame.
24P Direct Output
With a signal processing speed of 24 frames/sec increased to 48 frames/sec, the sequence created aligns the signal, providing a smoothness and textured detail that mirror the original.


"Deep Color" Compatible HDMI 1.3 Input Terminals
The HC7000 has two HDMI input terminals, and is capable of processing high-contrast images from 10- and 12-bit video signals in addition to the conventional 8-bit signal.

Anamorphic Lens Compatibility - Choose Setting Based on Media Played
The anamorphic lens compatibility of the HC7000 widens the projection range of cinema-scope images. Mode 1 proves extended projection, and Mode 2 is for images other than cinema-scope, which mirror the original with the anamorphic lens attached.

Amazingly Easy to Use Anytime, Anywhere

3D Micro-surface Air Filter
The HC7000 comes with an air filter that has a three-dimensional honeycomb structure, a microscopic filtering surface and a special electrostatic film for enhanced filtering efficiency. It attaches to the side of the projector and works as an air purification system to prevent dirt and other air-borne particulates from entering the chassis.

Long-life Lamp (up to 5000 hours)
The projection lamp has a long 5000-hour service life for months of uninterrupted viewing pleasure. When its time to clean or replace to lamp, a side-loading installation design makes it so the projector does not need to be moved. So regardless of installation-whether suspended from the ceiling or sitting on a shelf-lamp maintenance and replacement is simple and easy.

Illuminated Remote Controller
The button on the remote controller illuminate automatically, promising easy, trouble-free operation even in the darkest of rooms. Convenience is also improved with a function that enables the screen to be adjusted directly from the remote controller.



Trigger Terminal
The HC7000 is equipped with a projector power switch/screen extension/retraction trigger combination, creating a convenient one-touch operation function for cinema viewing. An anamorphic mode is also incorporated.
