Christie is expanding its D Series projector lineup with three new “value-priced” single-lamp models, which are available with up to 8100 ISO lumens and both WUXGA and HD resolutions.
“With a combination of brightness, image quality, lens and resolution choice, and a compact form factor, the Christie D Series leads the market in balancing great overall value with the best price point in this projector class,” according to a Christie press release. [related]
The new Christie D Series projectors “offer 65,000:1 contrast ratio, 3,000 hours of lamp life, and easy integration – making them ideal for higher education, business, museums, houses of worship, government facilities and selected rental and staging venues where they seamlessly integrate into any environment,” according to the announcement.
“For the more budget-minded user, the new LWU720i-D, LWU620i-D and LHD720i-D projectors are the most viable alternative to laser phosphor projectors, given their high brightness and feature-rich design at roughly half the cost of competitive laser-phosphor units,” said Jim Hall, senior product manager at Christie.
“Customers can also continue to use their full D Series single-lamp lens suite – including the Ultra Short Throw (UST) lens – for even greater installation flexibility. And with new, more efficient 3LCD panels, these news models provide even better color and brightness than before.”
The new Christie D Series models come with a three-year parts and labor warranty and ship in December 2017.
Christie Merit Series LED displays play a prominent role in this year’s Barneys New York Madison Avenue holiday window displays in New York City. Haas for the Holidays is a collaboration with artists Simon and Nikolai Haas of The Haas Brothers, represented by R & Company.
It celebrates inclusion in part by bringing diverse characters to life with Christie LED Displays.
#HaasRules will encourage followers to share a photo of themselves within a Barneys New York #HaasRules environment or from anywhere sharing their own Haas rule.
With each post with the #HaasRules hashtag through Jan. 1, 2018, the Barneys New York Foundation will provide a $5 donation for Children’s Defense Fund (CDF).
