Introducing the new SRX-R320 4K cinema projection system

Sony digital cinema projection systems are designed to meet the exacting standards set out by the DCI. Conscious of the investment required for conversion to digital projection, Sony has focused on developing equipment that conforms to the DCI’s forward-looking 4K image standard to ensure that investments made today will as far as possible meet the needs of exhibitors over the coming years. As movie production and distribution moves over to the increased detail offered by 4K, audiences visiting cinemas equipped with Sony systems will be able to enjoy an enhanced experience rather than being limited to the image quality commonly available today.

4K projection has been made possible by Sony’s own ultra high resolution display device, the SXRD panel. It combines tiny pixel size with an ultra-thin gap between pixels to be capable of showing FOUR times more detail than the best HD or standard digital cinema systems.

Sony continues to adopt the DCI’s preferred method of enclosing the Media Block within the projector body for added security. The SRX-R320 has achieved this while greatly reducing the overall size of the projector chassis compared with the earlier SRX-R220 in order. This provides greater installation flexibility.

The Sony LMT-300 Media Block stores and replays both 4K and 2K DCI compliant movie files. Sony projection systems can open up new business opportunities from showing alternative content such as concerts and music events, sports events and computer gaming. 2K movies and High Definition alternative content are automatically up-converted to 4K equivalent images by the projector.

Sony’s unique dual lens approach to 3D display is partnered with RealD’s patented light management technology to provide outstanding performance for the exhibition of 3D movies. The SRX-R320 can also exhibit 3D alternative content following some changes to its standard configuration.

The SRX-R320 is well placed to bring 4K quality to an even greater number of audiences.
