NEC extends digital-cinema financing program

Dec 23, 2009

NEC Display Solutions of America announced the extension of its financing program for theatre owners looking to upgrade cinema projector capabilities to digital. The company will continue the program until March 31, 2010, offering eligible organizations special financing packages with low introductory payments on eligible NEC 3D-enabled digital-cinema projectors.

Jim Reisteter, general manager of NEC’s Digital Cinema Division, says the technology “has the potential to pay for itself within 12 to 18 months."

NEC digital-cinema projectors require the use of a 3D enabler in order to display 3D films, and enablers are available through Dolby, RealD and MasterImage. NEC's 3D-enabled digital-cinema projectors, the NC2500S-A and NC1600A-C, meet DCI specifications for performance and reliability.

These financing options are available through NEC Financial Services, LLC. To learn more, visit www.necdisplay.com/3Dpromo, or contact NECDigitalCinemaLease@neclease.com. Interested parties can also fill out the online credit application available at www.neclease.com/credit_application.asp.
