ViewSonic Intros PJD5352 Short-Throw 3D Projector

Earlier this month we told you about ViewSonic's PGD-150 Active Stereographic 3D shutter glasses. This week, ViewSonic announced the availability of the PJD5352 portable 3D-capable short throw projector.

With BrilliantColor technology, a short 0.9 throw ratio and 1.2X optical zoom, the PJD5352 produces a 50" image at a distance of only three feet away. The PJD5352 delivers 2,600 lumens with a 1024x768 XGA native resolution and has a 3,000:1 contrast ratio with DCR, for performance in even bright locations. It also has a 120Hz frame rate, integrated 5W speaker, and supports Texas Instruments' DLP Link technology, making it optimized for 2D and 3D performance.

The projector can be used tabletop or wall mounted (with optional short throw mount). Additional features include multiple preset presentation modes, closed captioning, an "Off to Go" feature (for bypassing the cool down phase) and a Kensington security lock and security bar. The PJD5352 even has an Eco Power Saving Mode for up to a 6,000-hour lamp life reduced noise, and <1W energy usage.

ViewSonic's PJD5352 is now available for $749.
