Hitachi Launches Budget HD Projector

Prices are really starting to get competitive now in the high definition (HD) projector space and Hitachi is out to show that creating a high-def home cinema doesn’t have to break the bank.

The company is set to launch its newest HD projector, the PJ-TX300, next month with a price tag of around £1,400. A successor to PJ-TX200, the new model comes with a massive contrast ratio of 10000:1, up from 7000:1 for its predecessor.

The projector is based on LCD projector technology and the use of a Super Focus ED x4 lens should help eliminate the ‘chicken wire’ effect noticed on cheaper, LCD-based projectors. The resolution is 1280x720 and there’s the all important HDMI input.

Even better, the lens can be adjusted both vertically and horizontally which makes positioning this in any living room a piece of cake. It is expected to launch next month.
