Christie announces new line of digital projectors
June 18, 2009
The five new products in the series offer a wide range of resolution and brightness levels for exhibitors who require projection from the smallest to the largest screens. The new product line includes the Christie CP2210, Christie CP2220 and the Christie CP2230, all available 2K and 4K-ready, as well as 4K projectors for screens up to 100 feet: the Christie CP4220 and the Christie CP4230, delivering 30,000 lumens of brightness.
Each of the five projectors features a new modular architecture, an optional integrated media block, and incorporates Christie’s Brilliant3D™ technology.
Jack Kline, president and chief operating officer, Christie Digital Systems USA, Inc., stated, “As we move into the second decade of digital cinema projection, we recognize the need for our exhibitor partners to have an even wider choice of projectors to address the dynamic market landscape. Our current product line will continue to meet both exhibition and studios’ immediate demand for both 2D and 3D presentations—and in 2010 and beyond, our Solaria series will meet our customers’ expanded needs for choice in brightness, resolution and cost of operation. Based on the knowledge gained from our current worldwide installed base, we estimate that 80% of all screens will be 2K and the balance will be 4K for larger screens.”
The Christie CP2210, Christie CP2220 and the Christie CP2230 will be available in the first half of 2010. The Christie CP4220 and CP4230 will be available in the second half of 2010.
