Optoma W309ST

Bright WXGA short throw projection

Impress your audience with stunning visuals using the 3,800 lumens, WXGA Optoma W309ST short throw projector. The 0.52:1 short throw ratio, brightness and 25,000:1 contrast ratio enable 100-inch projections from several feet away, making it ideal for classrooms, small conference rooms and other space-constrained environments.

Robust inputs include HDMI, VGA and composite for connectivity to a wide range of digital and legacy devices. Energy saving features and a long lamp life, up to 15,000 hours, provide many years of use with minimal maintenance for low total cost of ownership.

Key Features:

• Short throw lens: lets you project an impressive 100" image from just over a meter (3.3 feet) away. This allows you to place the projector closer to the wall, reducing shadows so you can present with ease.

• Amazing colors: Give powerful presentations and educational lessons with stunning colors. Optoma projectors provide reliable color performance suitable for any content and environment, from accurate sRGB colors for lifelike images to vibrant punchy presentations. We have a display mode to specifically meet your needs, perfect for a range of graphic and video presentations.

• Superior contrast: Add more depth to your image with a high contrast projector. Compared to competing technology, Optoma DLP projectors provide brighter whites and ultra-rich blacks. Images come alive and text appears crisp and clear — ideal for business and education applications.

• Full 3D: Optoma projectors can display true 3D content from almost any 3D source, including 3D Blu-ray players, 3D broadcasting and the latest generation game consoles.

• Integrated speaker: A powerful built-in speaker provides exceptional sound quality and an easy setup without the need for costly external speakers.

• 24/7 operation: Optoma projectors have been designed to operate 24 hours a day in standard orientation. Perfect for applications where prolonged periods of use is required. Subject to 24 hour terms and conditions.*

  (* Standard lamp warranty applies. Projector warranty is based on standard business usage hours. For optimum performance Optoma recommends that your projector is turned off or placed in standby mode for 30 minutes every 24 hours to prolonging the life of your lamp.)

Eco+ Features

Eco+ technology brings together high contrast, improved lamp life and energy saving features that are easy to use while reducing power consumption.

• Energy saving: Using the specially designed lamp modes, you can reduce the power consumption by up to 70%. Each mode also has a positive effect on the lamp life, while lowering the total cost of ownership and reducing maintenance.

• Auto power off: To help save energy, this feature automatically turns off the projector after a set period of time if it is not being used

• Eco AV mute: Direct your audience's attention away from the screen by blanking the image when no longer needed. This also reduces the power consumption by up to 70%, further prolonging the life of your lamp.

• Quick resume: This feature allows the projector to be instantly powered on again, if it is accidentally switched off.

• Direct power on: The projector will start up instantly when power is supplied to the unit. This eliminates the need to manually turn on the projector via the remote control or the keypad, ideal for use in rooms with a “master” power switch.

• Direct power off: Power off your projector immediately or directly at the mains. This means you don’t have to wait for the projector to cool down before turning it off.
