No doubt the Sony 4K set a new reference in the sub 30.000 euros category ( costing only 18.500 ), and make it very difficult for products above that mark to justify them self other than light output.
The level of contrast, colour reproduction, video scalling and processing, lens quality, ..., is incredible. Just out of the box, on the default factory settings. No need for calibration, dont be fooled.
And it also offers 3D and native 4K for free !
4K content is around the corner and in the meantime 1080p content is scalled so good that you can happy wait for the new Bluray format.
I have been the factory in Japan last year testing the prelease units, I have it on my showroom and I can say this product will be a top seller once the customers see it and compare it.
I have compared it to many / most of your prefered projectors and ... competitors are geting nervous ... side by side others seem broken, not focused, no deep, no contrast, etc
There is a new King, we liked or not, but it is better to accept it and push the other manufacturers for more research and development to keep the battle going so we will get even better stuff in the future. If not in one year time we will have a problem like Google or Apple but in the HT projector market.
Who dont see this is blind or just need to not see it due others issues like personal interest.
If the sky is dark and rainy we cant say it is a sunny day, because the customers will notice it, they are not stupid, or do you think that a guy that can pay 20, 30 or 50 thousend euros for a product makes his money been stupid ?
What about the comming new 4K low cost ... under 10.000 euros ... thing about a product range of 3 or 4 models to compete on each price point ... the battle is served and Sony will open new fight areas .. the others need to react and very fast
Happy future ! ( I will be part of it and need more 4K options ... )
