Description
Brightness and uniformity: Unlike many projectors, the CP-A200 exceeds its brightness specifications, providing 3095 ANSI lumens in day mode. In normal mode, brightness drops to 2495 lumens, in dynamic mode to 2065 lumens, and in "Cinema" mode to 1620 lumens. Whisper mode (or Eco) reduces brightness by 31% across all settings, and uniformity is a very respectable 87%... a relatively high percentage for a short-throw projector. The top of the image is slightly brighter than the bottom, but the difference is not noticeable. Inputs: Computer inputs range from VGA to UXGA (1600 x 1200), and video signals from 480i to 1080p are also supported. The auto-search function will select the next active input, or it can be selected directly from the remote control. Connections: Hitachi took an unusual approach by placing the connector panel on the right side of the CP-A200; for aesthetic purposes or permanent installation, a cable cover is included in the package, which can be attached with a single screw. There are two VGA computer input connectors and a separate set of RCA connectors for component video. Additionally, you will find inputs for S-video and composite video, a monitor pass-through connector, as well as audio mini-jack inputs and outputs. The RS-232 serial port is for monitoring and remote control of the projector, but there is no RJ-45 for internet connection. Image size and positioning: The maximum image size of the CP-A200, 100 inches, is not particularly good compared to its competitors, whose maximum diagonals can reach the 300-inch range. However, for small rooms where the CP-A200 performs best, images larger than 100 inches may not be needed anyway. For a 100-inch image, the center line of the lens is approximately 9 inches below the bottom edge of the image, so tabletop installation is ideal, although ceiling mounting may also be suitable. Image quality: The data and video images of the CP-A200 are comparable to many competitors in its class. Like many LCD projectors, the CP-A200 does not have a particularly high contrast ratio (500:1), so the video image is slightly blurred, although skin tones are natural and colors are balanced. Black levels are moderate at best, and some details in bright scenes are missing. However, in bright ambient lighting, the brightness of the CP-A200 can compensate for the contrast limitation. Computer images are sharp, and small text is readable even with maximum keystone correction. Focus is maintained across the entire screen, despite the complex optics required in short-throw designs. At standard lamp brightness, fan noise is 35 dB, although it is low-frequency and directed to the left of the projector, so most of the audience is not affected. Whisper mode reduces the fan noise level to 29 dB with a slight decrease in image brightness. Sound quality: The 7-watt speaker is more than sufficient for the small rooms where the CP-A200 is typically used. Across the entire output range, it does not hum or hiss, and in cases where its volume is insufficient, an external amplifier can be connected to the audio output jack. Security. In addition to RS-232 connection monitoring capabilities, the CP-A200 is also equipped with a Kensington lock and a security slot to ensure that the projector stays where you put it.
