Description
The ViewSonic PA503X steps up from the PA503S with a native XGA (1024x768) resolution while keeping the same price-conscious design for small business meeting rooms and classrooms. A 190W UHP lamp delivers 3,800 ANSI lumens, and SuperColor technology provides a wide colour gamut for clear presentations, video and images.
Connectivity mirrors the PA503S with HDMI, dual VGA inputs, VGA out and composite video with audio in/out, supporting a wide range of laptops and legacy AV sources. The lamp runs for 5,000 hours in normal mode, extending to 15,000 hours in SuperEco mode, and Quick Power Off allows immediate shutdown without waiting for the lamp to cool.
A 1.1x optical zoom, 0.8x-2.0x digital zoom and ±40° vertical keystone correction give flexible installation for a 30 to 300-inch image, backed by ViewSonic's 3-year limited parts and labour warranty with a 1-year lamp warranty.
