Around the world, Canon products are synonymous with optical excellence, advanced image processing, and superb performance. And Canon projectors are no exception.

The family of Canon projectors includes the REALiS line of bright, high resolution, ultra-portable and affordable projectors. REALiS projectors combine the brilliance and sharpness of innovative LCOS (Liquid Crystal On Silicon) technology with Canon's proprietary AISYS light engine technology. The result is a unique set of advanced projectors that deliver exceptional image quality.

The SX60 features new, advanced AISYS technology - with improved light efficiency, uniformity, and expanded color space. At 2500 ANSI lumens, it is one of Canon's bright, ultra-portable, SXGA+ projectors. With its exceptional level of image quality, it is ideal for demanding professional applications and discerning home cinema buffs. Its 1.7x Ultra-Wide Powered Zoom Lens with Autofocus gives you the flexibility of the widest zoom range of any of Canon's projector lenses. Its super quiet (27dB) operation makes it great for the classroom and home cinema. And, its DVI-I terminal lets you project high quality video from satellite and digital cable boxes, as well as DVD players.

Canon Optical Performance

Project a positive image with Genuine Canon Optics. As with every camera or projector that Canon makes, the REALiS SX60 comes with optics of unparalleled excellence that give you a bright, crisp, clear image with no flare or distortion.

The 1.7x Ultra-Wide Powered Zoom Lens has the widest zoom range of any of Canon's projector lenses, giving you a diagonal screen size range of 40" (at a very short projection distance of 3.9') to 300". At a short 9.8' distance, you still get a 100" screen. And if that's not enough, the Digital Zoom feature gives you an additional zoom range of 1.5x to 12x. The REALiS SX60 performs in a wide range of room settings, proving that there's more to portability than projector size.

In addition to this quality and flexibility, the SX60 boasts one of the highest contrast ratios of any Canon Projector -- 1000:1 -- for sharp images and deep, rich colors, even with ambient light. It also gives you 88% image uniformity for an even image from corner-to-corner. What's more, the projector boasts a 2000:1 contrast ratio in Home Cinema Mode. It's perfect for an enhanced home cinema experience when you have control over your lighting environment and can minimize ambient light.

The optical performance of your SX60 doesn't stop there -- because the HDTV compatible SX60 displays true 16:9 HDTV broadcast images (720p), giving your audience a high-definition, widescreen experience. It's a cinematic experience that is further enhanced by the projector's 2:3 Pulldown feature on Progressive Scan images. The result is an image with the natural look of film.
