High Image Quality

3LCD BrightEra™ Natural and Vivid Color Images

Thanks to an optical system that constantly projects three basic colors, this projector offers excellent light efficiency which ensures colorful and bright images. Sony’s BrightEra™ panels deliver improved panel light resistance, higher resolution, high brightness, and increased panel reliability. High color reproducibility is important especially when using colorful content, such as materials typically used in classrooms.

High Brightness: 4,200-lumens Color Light Output

With very high brightness of up to 4,200-lumens color light output, projectors in the VPL-E300 Series give a clearer image in high ambient light, making them very suitable for larger venues.

Various Picture Modes for Optimal Picture Quality

VPL-E300 Series projectors have six available picture modes for correct picture quality: Dynamic, Standard, Presentation, Blackboard, Whiteboard, and Cinema. With the choice of six picture modes and three brightness modes, you can select the most suitable picture/brightness combination according to the picture source and environment, to create the optimal image.

Ease of Use

Simple Installation with HDBaseT

HDBaseT is a multi-signal transmission system via a single cable, which simplifies the installation task. It cuts total system cost by reducing not just cabling requirements but also the number of required signal extenders and receiver boxes. One Cat5e/6 cable can run up to 100 meters, reducing the number of cable runs and eliminating the need for signal extenders. And fewer signal extenders and receiver boxes mean fewer potential points of failure. In addition, Cat5e/6 cables are much easier to terminate than cables such as HDMI, and therefore can be simply and quickly terminated even onsite during the installation process.

Dual HDMI Input Terminal

Thanks to dual HDMI input terminals, you can use both standard signal sources (PC/Video) and the latest wireless input adapters without switching connections.

Network Presentation (LAN)

When the projector is installed in a LAN, presentations can be projected from any PC and Mac on the network. A tablet or smartphone can be connected at the same time. You can project jpg, pdf, and other supported formats. Up to four users can project PC/Mac images simultaneously, while up to eight*1 users can connect to one projector.

Wireless Presentation Software

Multiple Inputs

VPL-E300 Series projectors accept a wide variety of inputs signals, greatly expanding system connection possibilities.

Silent Design

With an advanced air discharge system, Sony’s whisperquiet fan emits less than 35 dB during operation (Lamp mode: High/Low: 35 dB/29 dB)

Slim, Attractive Blend-in Design

The slim, stylish case design features a flat top surface that blends in discreetly when the projector is ceiling mounted.

Rear Side Lamp Access for Easy Maintenance

The lamp change position has shifted to the back of the unit. This enables easy lamp access when the projector is hanging from a ceiling mount.

Input Label

You can customize the input label that appears in the input menu on screen. This gives you a clear understanding of which equipment is connected.

Network Presentation Portable Edition

The portable edition function allows you to install the Network Presentation application into a generalpurpose USB mass storage device. This enables guest users to run the Network Presentation application via the USB device without having to install the app on their own laptop.

Three-way Wireless Connection

These projectors support three different methods of wireless connection, so you can achieve the system best suited to every situation

Good TCO, Energy-efficient Design

Long-lasting Lamp

The lamp driver optimally controls the wattage of the lamp and achieves a long-lasting lamp replacement time of 10,000 hours with lamp brightness set to low. This extends the lamp replacement time by more than 43% compared with the previous model.

Auto Power Saving Function

• Auto Mode (Auto Brightness Adjustment Function)

The brightness of the lamp’s output is automatically adjusted depending on the brightness of the projected image, to avoid unnecessary power consumption. When showing darker images that don’t require high brightness, lamp output decreases.

• Blank

The VPL-E300 Series projectors can temporarily disable video signal output. This function can be easily operated with just the touch of a button on the supplied Remote Commander™ unit. In addition, this function allows blank image projection with low power consumption using lamp control technology.

• Lamp Dimming Function

The VPL-E300 Series projectors are equipped with a lamp dimming function. After 10 seconds of a static signal feed, the lamp dims by approximate 15% which is hardly noticeable. If one of these projectors is left powered on while not in use, after a set period of time it will automatically detect no change of signal input and will dim the lamp to as low as approximate 30% of original brightness to significantly reduce energy consumption.

ECO MODE Key

With a single push of the ECO MODE key on either the projector or the supplied Remote Commander unit, users can select an energy-saving setting from the ECO Mode menu.
