Dell DLP projectors 3D ready
Dell has quietly launched two new projectors. The 1420X and 1430X both carry a native resolution of 1024x768 and a contrast ratio of 2,400:1. The 1420X puts out 2,700 lumens of brightness, while the 1430X is slightly more powerful, providing 3,200 lumens.
Both projectors can project an image from 38 inches to 180 inches (diagonal) at distances from 3.3 feet to 26.2 feet. Input is through VGA, RCA, or S-Video connections. Each is 3D ready when paired with an appropriately equipped PC or other source.
The 1420X sports a 190W bulb with a lamp life of up to 4,500 hours normally or 6,000 hours in an economizing mode. The brighter 1430X's 240W bulb lasts up to 3,000 hours with normal use or 5,000 hours in the energy-saving mode.
Available now, the 1420X is priced at $599. The 1430X carries a price of $699.
