Calling Epson...

Jannard · 11-10-2009, 07:48 PM

We are very happy to see Epson's announcement of a 4K projector that will be shown this month in Japan. Now someone has to tell them to use the RED Reel for their demos! Epson does a great job with projectors and we think this will be great for the industry. 4K all the way, baby!

Someone let us know if they got the message... :-)

Just send them a Red Ray Jim. We know what that looks like in 4K. Great news

Austin Glass · 11-10-2009, 07:56 PM

wow, this is great! hope to see RED reels on that soon!

Can't wait!

I've read a few articles about this but so far no indication of what price range these will fall into. I know they won't be cheap, but wondering if they will fall into the 5 figure or six figure range. I suppose it depends on the implementation, feature set, etc. But exciting news for sure.

And they can send a projector around to my house too, for testing.

Epson has a 4k for $4k motto, right? ;-)

Epson has been doing some incredible work in the last couple years with the consumer projector segment, and as far as I know they do not have a line of projectors in the 5 or 6 figure market. It will be very interesting to see the price point they have in mind.

They don't have the "everything is subject to change" do they? If so, it may be a 5K surprise when it comes out.
