the unit has at high lamp mode (very quiet) no iris at all
contrast at full 100 (no clipping) with d 65 color and lens to the adjust to the biggest
picture it can do with oppo bd player in 2d and 1 hour at the lamp
1920 center lumen!!!
when you select that the 1920x1080 24p signal was scale up to
full wide of the panel the vw 1000 offers
2064 center lumen!!!
i see not any problem by using the scale mode to fill the full panel.
not any bug that i can see.
the lens is very very good at least at the position i select (max big picture).
very sharp and it show the pixels when you go to the screen.
no chromatic bugs in the corners no other issues what a good lens!
i try also the reality creation and when i switch it on you can see that the picture gets much better.
you can adjust than there the level of resolution and noise reduction.
i adjust all to minimum.
as the picture is still at min. a bit to sharp i adjust the general sharpness to 0.
but even than it was for my taste to sharp so i take the oppo adjustments and i found
with -10 sharpness a very nice way to further decrease the picture enhancement
to a level i like it.
that together with the big improvement when you adjust reality creation gives a very nice bug free picture that i like a lot and with this adjustments it looks very good
and naturally and very good.
the other important point are the cr. number that are discussed here at avs
like the lumen number a lot.
i found with open iris max. light out at d 65 with biggest picture from the lens
11050:1 cr.
you need to know that my numbers when i compare it with other people numbers are always a
bit low so i expect even higher numbers from other people that this pr. have native.
all above was at color space rec 709 and color temperature d65.
i am not sure if its really necessary to further calibrate the colors as they looks to me
right out the box very good.
this pr. is a big positive surprise as it have the lumen at d 65 sony promise
(2000 lumen) and the cr. native was with my measurements at over 11000:1 native
also very nice if you think about how bright the unit is.
when you thing that this is a true 4k pr. with native 4096x2160 almost
9 mil. pixel and the lumen and the cr. this pr. is a very good deal if you can afford it.
in 2 days i will have a computer here with the first gc that outputs true 4k via the
hdmi output.
lets see how good the still pictures with 4.27 times the resolution full hd have will looks....
Mayer - Do you plan to test 3d performance at all? I know not everyone on this thread is a fan but it is a factor for me. My guess is it should be excellent based on the feedback I've read on the VW95.
I'm sure complete measurements will follow in time but for now I'm interested to hear how the machine does in low lamp and at 2.0 throw. I suppose wide open iris and also min iris.

Great news and feedback Wolfgang! I'm glad it seems our faith in the production units delivering the promised light output has been validated.
Can I ask what Video Card you are getting for your PC? I will be in search of one to drive this beast shortly too, time to retire the old Nvidia 450 GTS!

Wait, is it verified that you can hook up a full 4k source video card to this projector? I thought that there were limitations with HDMI that would prevent it.
Ok on the Radeon 7970 on the AMD side, what about Nvidia?
Thanks. Spot on. I've been trying to google a card with 4K res like this and it for some reason is proving really hard. This one could be the one. I might be back to the AMD camp if Nvidia has no comparable card to this.

Any graphics card that supports HDMI 1.4 will do native 4K at 24hz. That's the only refresh rate HDMI currently supports. It shouldn't be an issue for our lot considering that's the refresh rate we want for films anyways.
