6X RGBRGB Color Wheel Delivers Rec. 709 HDTV Standard for Cinematic Color 

Users now can have lifelike cinematic color with Rec. 709, and enjoy big screen entertainment with BenQ Home Video Projectors. Rec. 709 is the international HDTV standard introduced in the 1990s to guarantee accurate reproduction of cinematic color as the film director had intended. Only displays that conform to Rec. 709 can reproduce the original quality and authentic color of HD content. That level of quality is now available in home projection with the release of BenQ’s W2000 and W3000 Home Video Projectors, which are precision calibrated utilizing a 6-times speed RGBRGB color wheel with finely tuned coating and color segments to replicate stunning true colors for a superb viewing experience.

 

In order to build a color wheel that produces Rec. 709 colors, BenQ took extra effort in the hardware design for color wheel angle and coating, software optimization for color fine-tuning and also production line quality control to make sure that W2000/W3000 projector delivers perfect Rec. 709 performance.

With BenQ Cinematic Color, you can now see the colors that film directors want you to see and enjoy consistent image performance for the entire movie.
