For Powerful Presentations
…the VPL-PX40/PX35
The Key to Smart Presentations
…the Sony VPL-PX40/PX35 Projector
Leave a lasting impression. With its brightness of
3500* ANSI lumens** and a high contrast level, the
VPL-PX40 is the easy and effective way to view
presentations in any environment or lighting
condition. Its 3D Gamma Correction and 3D Digital
Comb Filter features, plus an RGB Enhancer for
RGB and DDE for video, combine to make pictures
always look their best.
*The brightness of the VPL-PX35 is 2600 ANSI lumens.
**ANSI lumens is a measurement unit defined by the
American National Standards Institute IT7.228. Since there is
no uniform method of measuring brightness, specifications
may vary among manufacturers.
High Brightness and Contrast
With a new optical system incorporating Sony LCD
panels and a 265 W UHP lamp,the VPL-PX40 offers
an outstanding brightness of 3500 ANSI lumens,
while the VPL-PX35 provides an impressive 2600
ANSI lumens. High-quality images can be projected
even in high ambient-light conditions, producing an
extremely highcontrast ratio.
High Resolution
By utilizing three
0.99-inch XGA LCD
panels, the
VPL-PX40/PX35
provides a clean and
detailed reproduction of all images.
Digital Signal Processing
The VPL-PX40/PX35 achieves high picture quality
with Sony original Digital Signal Processing
technology. The VPL-PX40/PX35 provides digital
signal processing by adopting a newly developed
driver for the LCD panel that directly accepts digital
signals; thus the projector is capable of projecting
images with high accuracy.
Smart APA
Dot phase and image size or shift can be
automatically adjusted to their optimal settings
according to input signals.
3D Gamma Correction
The 3D Digital Gamma Correction circuit
simultaneously provides superb grayscale
reproduction and helps to improve overall picture
uniformity.
Dynamic Detail Enhancer (DDE)
This unique Sony technology generates high
quality images through the Interlace/Progressive
conversion processor. Signals of film-originated
sources converted through 2-3 and 2-2 pull down
process are detected, resulting in extremely
accurate image reproduction.
RGB Enhancer
For a crisper RGB image, the VPL-PX40/PX35 is
equipped with an RGB Enhancer function. A simple
adjustment provides heightened image quality to
match any image source – whether text, photos, or
graphics.
The Benefits of Networking
The VPL-PX40/PX35 can even be controlled via a TCP/IP-
based network connection, which also enables users to
receive maintenance information. This functionality is
ideal for offices and schools equipped with a Local Area
Network (LAN).
Back-to-Front Tilt
The VPL-PX40/PX35 can be tilted
upwards or downwards by 90 degrees.
This flexibility greatly expands the
projector’s application possibilities.
Digital Keystone Adjustment
Keystone distortion, caused when the projection angle is
not properly calibrated, can be easily corrected within a
wide adjustment range of +/- 20 degrees. The necessary
adjustments can be easily made via the On-Screen Display.
On-Screen Display (OSD)
The OSD, which provides
easy projector control, is
available in a choice of nine
languages: English, French,
Spanish, German, Italian,
Japanese, Chinese,
Portuguese, or Korean.
Direct Power On and Off
With this function, standby mode can be skipped over
to activate the VPL-PX40/PX35 immediately. And thanks
to a cooling fan with drive circuitry that works even after
the power has been cut, the projector can be turned on
or off using a circuit-breaker switch on a switchboard.
Password-Authentication System
This function restricts unauthorized use of the projector.
Once a password has been set, the VPL-PX40/PX35
cannot be used without it.
Optional Lenses
Two optional lenses are available, giving users the
ability to customize the VPL-PX40/PX35 to perfectly suit
any projection environment.

Throw ratio*: 0.9:1
*Throw ratio is the distance between the center of the projector lens and
the screen, divided by the screen width.
Multiple Inputs
Using a built-in high-performance scan converter,
the VPL-PX40/PX35 accepts a wide range of input
signals: composite video, S-Video, Y/R-Y/B-Y,
Y/PB/PR and RGB video, as well as analog and
digital computer signals. A variety of DTV signals
(480/60i,575/50i,540/60p,480/60p,575/50p,720/60p,
720/50p, 1080/60i, and 1080/50i) are also fully
supported, extending its potential even further.
DVI interface
The VPL-PX40/PX35 accepts digital signals directly
thanks to its DVI interface.
4-times Digital Zoom
To help convey a clear message, the 4-times Digital
Zoom function allows users to zoom in on any part
of the projected image during a presentation.
Stereo Sound
Users can improve the impact and effectiveness of
presentations with stereo audio output from the
built-in stereo-speaker system.
Useful Remote-Control Unit
The supplied remote-control unit is
equipped with keys to control
various projector functions, for
smooth, persuasive presentations
every time. It has an integrated
mouse function for point-and-click
control of a USB-connected
computer, and it can work as a laser
pointer to direct the audience’s
attention and guide them through
the presentation.
Complete the experience. An integrated stereo-
speaker system delivers audio to support the
presentation visuals for even greater impact.
A laser-pointer, mouse function and 4-times Digital
Zoom – all included on the supplied remote-
control unit – help to make presentations run
smoothly and keep the audience enthralled. The
projector itself – the main presentation tool – goes
virtually unnoticed, because of near-silent
operation.
The broad installation capabilities of the VPL-PX40
/PX35 enable the projector to be mounted on the
ceiling or floor, or installed in a rear-projection
system. Installation flexibility is further enhanced
by the choice of two optional lenses. With the
Direct Power-On function, the projector can be
turned on or off quickly using a circuit-breaker
switch on a switchboard, and, for added security,
the VPL-PX40 /PX35 incorporates a password-
authentication system.
