VPL-FHZ85 / VPL-FHZ80
The industry's smallest, lightest 8,000 lumen* projectors** with innovative features
*VPL-FHZ85 7,300 lm (8,000 lm center) / VPL-FHZ80 6,000 lm (6,500 lm center)
**As of August 2021 (according to Sony research) in 3LCD laser projectors of over 8,000 lm center brightness
Powerful, compact, light, and superbly styled, these 3LCD laser projectors are bursting with the latest Sony innovations to deliver consistently rich, bright, colorful images. With versatile installation options and reduced maintenance, they’re ideal for projection in mid-size corporate, education, and public environments. The VPL-FHZ85/FHZ80 has already received multiple industry awards.
Bold, rich color, even in brightly lit rooms
Even powerful projectors can suffer from washed-out image colors in strongly lit rooms. Exclusive to Sony, Bright View delivers high-impact images that don’t sacrifice color. Newly improved Reality Creation ensures images, diagrams, and text look clear and sharp, even in bright conditions. Intelligent Settings with Ambiance match projected images with your environment for an enhanced viewing experience: there’s even an ambient light sensor to measure room brightness.
Reality Creation uses powerful algorithms that boost image resolution closer to 4K clarity. Reality Text improves visibility of characters; great for conference rooms and classrooms.
Bright View is Sony’s unique processing technology that brightens images while maintaining rich color—even in brightly lit business and educational environments.
Intelligent Settings with Ambiance uses a built-in light sensor to measure room brightness, automatically adjusting Bright View mode, color gain, and Reality Creation to suit your presentation environment.
21:9 support opens doors to new applications
21:9 projection displays offer a new dimension of immersion and engagement across various applications, making them essential for those who seek to captivate, educate, and entertain. In addition to 16:10 and 16:9 aspect ratios, the VPL-FHZ85/80 will now also support the 21:9 aspect ratio with 2560×1080 signal input, allowing you to innovatively project ultra-wide hybrid meetings on larger screens that optimize the visual presence of remote participants.
When combined with the Ambiance functionality, hybrid meetings are further enhanced by optimizing brightness, color, and resolution, depending on the brightness of the conference room, making it easier than ever to see emotive expressions of remote meeting participants while displayed content is being shared.
The use of 4K photos and videos is increasingly common in presentations. While the VPL-FHZ85/80 are WUXGA projectors, they offer a 4K60P input to display images with quality that’s close to true 4K resolution. Reality Creation is Sony’s processing technology that’s been improved for displaying 4K content better, ensuring images look crisper, with a stronger feeling of depth.
Sophisticated design and superior installation flexibility
The light, compact VPL-FHZ85/80 make an elegant addition to any modern work space. Its understated blend-in design features a flat-top surface that minimizes visual impact when the projector is ceiling mounted. Installation is simplified with a choice of optional lenses, while a class-leading lens shift capability overcomes challenges like ceiling obstacles and other AV equipment.
The slim, stylish case design features a flat-top surface that blends in discreetly when the projector is ceiling mounted.
The class-leading vertical +70% lens shift adjustment range offers more installation freedom. A range of lens options suits virtually any room size and throw requirements; the quick-release bayonet simplifies lens exchange.
The projector’s 4K 60P input capability makes life simpler when you’re using the VPL-FHZ85/80 in multi-screen set-ups with other devices like flat-panel sub-screens. Just split the same 4K signal to drive all your displays, with no conversion needed.
Brighter for longer
While other projectors can fade over time, the VPL-FHZ85/80 are engineered to maintain consistent image brightness. An exclusive Intelligent Settings feature automatically monitors real-world usage, optimizing settings to keep images consistently bright. The sealed laser light source and automated filter cleaning system prevent dust build-up, ensuring cool, efficient operation with uncompromised image brightness.
Intelligent Settings simplifies installation and maximizes performance based on usage, image detail, color richness and fidelity, light output, cooling level, and output noise. The Meeting/Classroom function controls laser output to keep brightness as high as possible for a period of actual usage time.
Focus on great-looking images instead of time-consuming maintenance. The automated filter cleaning system removes dust every 100 hours, ensuring unrestricted clean air intake for optimized cooling.
The laser light source is sealed to prevent dust accumulation and eliminate reduced brightness. The dedicated cooling duct structure for the projector’s 3LCD panels is covered with an air filter to prevent dust from entering.
Settings for one projector can be copied to a second and subsequent projectors using a USB memory drive. This greatly simplifies installation and set-up of multiple projectors.
The Auto Input Select feature automatically selects an active signal input, so there’s no need to change input each time a device is connected to the projector.
Connect the VPL-FHZ85/80 to a switched-on computer, and the projector turns on automatically without having to operate the power button.
