A 2.1× optical zoom and horizontal and vertical lens shift supported flexible installation. Six colour modes covered bright rooms through fully darkened theatres.
Connections included two HDMI 1.3 inputs, USB, component video, S-Video, RGB and SCART. The menu also offered selectable 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown.
Operating noise was rated at 26 dB. Epson supplied a three-year warranty for both projector and E-TORL lamp.
