Sony launches first HDR-ready 4K laser digital cinema projectors with high contrast ratio of 10,000:1

Sony Digital Cinema 4K confirms the launch of a brand-new family of 4K laser digital cinema projectors.  The SRX-R800 Series is the first digital cinema projection system combining Sony’s latest-generation native 4K SXRD with a long-lasting laser light source.

It doesn't mention the lightsource in the linked announcement, but this is not a commercial version of the prototype dual engine RGB machine shown at CinemaCon. It is the commercial version of the Blu-Laser-Phosphor machine previewed at CineEurope.

Sony Digital Cinema 4K returns to CineEurope with an exciting display of how next-generation movie presentation could look. Join us from 20-22 June at the CCIB in Barcelona, where we’re previewing a brand new HDR-ready projector using a long-lasting phosphor laser light source to present spectacular 4K images.

Pricing and availability for the new 4K laser phosphor projector are yet to be confirmed. Demonstrations are being held hourly by invitation, during tradeshow hours from Tuesday 20 June to Thursday 22 June. <\q>
