It's a dual-laser projector, and Optoma says it delivers 90% DCI-P3 cinema grade color accuracy. It's designed for flexible installation, and can be placed in a front, rear or ceiling-mounted setup. The projector is powered by Optoma's PureEngine Ultra, the latest generation of its home theater image processor, and it comes with ISF calibration to optimize the picture for the viewing conditions. There's also Filmmaker Mode so you can enjoy movies as their creators intended.
