Canon Features 5 Projectors with Excellent Color At InfoComm 2019

Canon displayed five projectors at InfoComm 2019, ranging from WXGA resolution to 4K. Art took a stroll through the Canon booth while he was at the convention in Orlando, Florida, back in June. The five projectors featured in this video are the LX-MU500Z, LX-MU502Z, WUX7500, WUX7000Z, and the 4K6020Z. Before we dive into that video, let’s take a quick look at each of these projectors and what they have to offer.

The $2,999 Canon LX-MU500Z is a 5,000 lumen DLP projector with a laser light engine. The projector features excellent placement flexibility thanks to a 1.60:1 zoom lens with manual lens shift – that’s +50% vertical, +23% horizontal – and HDBaseT. This projector has an excellent warranty! 5 years parts and labor, including the Advanced Warranty Service Exchange Program and Service Loaner Program.

The Canon LX-MH502Z is a $5,390 laser projector with 4K UHD resolution (3840x2160). Also 5,000 lumens, this projector can produce an image of up to 300 inches! The LX-MH502Z, too, has excellent placement flexibility. It has a 1.60:1 zoom lens with manual lens shift, this time +60% vertical, +23% horizontal, and HDBaseT. In addition to all this, the projector has 360° positioning. The LX-MH502Z has the same awesome warranty as the LX-MU500Z.

The Canon REALiS WUX7500 is a lamp based projector with LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) technology, and an MSRP of $8,749 ($5,150 street). This particular projector boasts 7,500 lumens and WUXGA (1920x1200) resolution. It’s another projector that has excellent placement flexibility – more so than the previous two – in that this WUX7500 has six interchangeable lens options, including an ultra short throw lens with generous lens shift (+15%, -75% vertical, +30% horizontal), and HDBaseT. It also has WiFi.

The Canon REALiS WUX7000Z has WUXGA (1920x1200) and a laser light engine, and LCOS technology (all higher-end Canon projectors have this technology). It has an MSRP of $10,199 ($8,549 street price), 7,000 lumens, and the same six interchangeable lenses available to the lower-cost WUX7500. The projector features HDBaseT, wireless capabilities, DICOM SIM., Edge Blending, Geometric Correction, HDR, and Crestron RoomView. The WUX7000Z has 360° positioning, allowing the projector to be installed in portrait mode, which is great for digital signage.

With the Canon REALiS 4K6020Z, we see a huge jump in price. This laser based LCOS projector has true 4K resolution (4096x2160) and 6,000 lumens, for a whopping $47,999. It’s a projector for commercial applications, and has seven interchangeable lenses for excellent placement flexibility. It features HDR, Advanced Calibration Settings, Motion Blur Reduction, and Edge Blending. The 4K6020Z also featured advanced networking via integrated software like Crestron RoomView, Extron XTP and AMX.
