elegant design and outstanding performance, the VPL-CS4 is sure to

visual styling with its simple and elegant external design. At
first glance it appears as a simple, smooth shape - no lens, no
projector controls, no connectors. Then, at the touch of a button,
the front panel flips on to the top of the unit so that the
operational controls now face upward for convenient operation.
Twin speakers, mounted on either side of the controls, are angled

its supplied carrying bag, so that its clear and brilliant images
can be projected anytime, anywhere.

discharge system, with the exhaust positioned at the front of the

discharged air is kept away from the audience during
presentations.

unit, RM-PJ2, helps make presentations look smart and effective.

to 15 degrees can be digitally corrected from the On-Screen
Display or the supplied remote control unit. Images can be
