Super tough to make comparisons of projector images using a camera. I'd be very interested to know what he used to take the photos.

Sony's new flagship VPL-XW7000ES weighs 31 lbs. It's beautifully designed and the build quality is excellent and lighter than what I would have expected.

Wow... $28K! I hope Sony has it running in Dallas. I'd love to see it in action.

How does the image look (to you) straight out of the box?

When you select the "Reference" picture mode the picture quality is excellent.

I expect we'll see Sony's new XW projector line up to be demonstrated at CEDIA.

I'll be attending CEDIA with Lianne and would love to meet up with you.

Sony direct shipped all of our customers' XW5000ES, XW6000ES, and XW7000ES and also filled all of our orders for store stock. Even today, Saturday, we just received 3 more XW6000ES projectors for our store stock and one is coming home with me!
