Sanyo PLC-XL50 Review

By Bill Livolsi

The XL50 is arguably Sanyo's most unique projector offered to date, and can simplify projector installation in almost every instance.

The Sanyo PLC-XL50 is a projector with a purpose, designed to do one thing and do it well - project large images in little throw distance. It succeeds in this venture spectacularly. At $2900 street, the XL50 is a reasonably priced alternative to large ...

Sanyo PLC-XL50 Projector

Business-class projector is a good fit when space is tight, but the cost isn't so small.

Close-range projection ; Flexible horizontal or vertical placement

No digital input ; Doesn't support PC-less presentations

The PLC-XL50 carries a hefty price tag. But its ability to display big images in small spaces is unmatched

Sanyo's $4999 PLC-XL50 business-class projector can display an 80-inch diagonal image at just 3 inches from a wall or screen, making it ideal for use in close quarters. Would You Buy This?0Yes0No Sanyo PLC-XL50 Test ScoresOverall 81Got a Hot Tip?...

How to Buy a Business Projector

By M. David Stone

projector, with most of the differences counting very much in its favor. It doesn't look like most projectors, and its shape defies easy description. Unlike most projectors, its measured brightness is higher than the rated brightness (2,000 lumens) ...

Incredibly short throw, with 75-inch diagonal image at 3 inches from screen. Bright image. Vibrant colors.

Big and heavy. Setup takes more work than with most projectors. Maximum 80-inch diagonal image.

The Sanyo PLC-XL50 delivers a high-quality image from such a short distance that you can stand less than a foot in front of the screen without casting shadows.

Any way you look at it, the Sanyo PLC-XL50 ($2,500 street) is a remarkably different projector, with most of the differences counting very much in its favor. The Sanyo PLC-XL50's limitations for video keep it from being a good choice as a home...

Hitachi and Sanyo has released a separate installation projector with ultra-short projection distance. Hitachi can project an image measuring 60 inches on the diagonal, when it is only 9.6 inches from the wall. Sanyo is even more extreme, it can 80 inches...

Huge picture at short distances ;

picture is not entirely straight; Poor sharpness; Lite carpet colors ;

Projectors with extremely short projection distance, some opportunities not had before. Easier installation and to avoid any rises from the couch and skuggar screen is a good argument to choose such a projector. To say nothing of the projector can be set...

Test: Sanyo PLC-XL50

Give Sanyo eight centimeters to work, you get a picture of 80 inches. Good deal, right? Yes, actually. If you are a champion in Powerpoint, teachers or living extremely narrow lived. For film sugna? Well .

Great Photos at zero distance;

The images are not quite right; Poor sharpness; Slightly faded color;

Projectors with extremely short projiseringsavstand open for a number of opportunities they had earlier. Easier installation in addition to that you do not have the people walk past the lens and casts shadows on the canvas, are good arguments for choosing...
