Impressively small, light 5,300 lumen laser projector

Beautifully slim and light with the smallest body in its class, the VPL-PHZ51 laser projector combines outstanding picture performance with up to 5,800 lumen centre brightness and impressive reliability. A discreet blend-in design, minimal maintenance needs and flexible installation options make it the natural partner for today's integrated AV environments.

21:9 support opens doors to new applications

21:9 projection displays offer a new dimension of immersion across various applications, making them essential for those who seek to capitvate, educate and entertain. The VPL-PHZ51 will no support 21:9 aspect ratio with 2560x1080 signal input allowing you to innovatively project ultra-wide hybrid meetings on larger screens that optimise visual present of remote participants.

Bold, rich colour even in brightly lit rooms

Even powerful projectors can suffer from washed-out colours in strongly-lit rooms. Sony's Bright View technology delivers high-impact images without sacrificing colour. Reality Creation also ensures images, diagrams & text look clear and sharp, even in bright rooms. There's even an ambient light sensor to measure room brightness.

Clearer images and text

Reality Creation uses powerful algorithms that boost resolution closer to 4K-like quality. Reality Text improves visibility of characters: great for conference rooms, university seminar rooms and large classrooms.

Bright, beautiful colours

Bright View is Sony's unique processing technology that brightens images while maintaining rich colour - even in brightly-lit business and educational environments.

Enhanced viewing experience

Intelligent Settings with Ambiance uses a built-in light sensor to measure room brightness, automatically adjusting Bright View mode, colour gain and Reality Creation to suit your presentation environment.

Enjoy optimum pictures while saving energy

The VPL-PHZ51 makes sound business sense, helping you reduce running costs in corporate and educational environments. A new Auto Light Output feature works in conjuction with Ambiance, optimising image quality and maintaining high visibility while reducing power consumption.

4K 60P input support

Support for 4K 60P input signals makes life easier when you're using the VPL-PHZ51 in multi-screen setups with flat panel sub-screens. Just split the same 4K signal to drive all your display devices with no conversion needed. There's also support for devices with content protection such as 4K UHD players.

Brighter for longer with less maintenance

There's plenty of innovation inside the VPL-PHZ51 to keep pictures looking clear and bright over the projector's operational lifetime with minimal maintenance - in any environment.

Designed with intelligence

Intelligent Settings simplifies installation and maximises performance based on usage, image detail, colour richness and fidelity, light output, cooling level and output noise. The Meeting/Classroom function controls laser output to keep the brightness as high as possible for years of real-world use.

Keep dust out of the picture

The projector's laser light source is sealed to prevent dust accumulation and eliminate reduced brightness. The dedicated cooling duct structure for the projector's 3LCD panels is covered with an air filter to prevent dust from entering.

Hassle-free filter care

Focus on great-looking images instead of time-consuming maintenance. The new dust filtration system makes changing filters a thing of the past for general use in classrooms and meeting rooms*. For heavier use in dusty environments there's a new clogging sensor to advise when filter cleaning is needed.

*Dust density < 0.03mg/m3 and operating time < 10,500 hours (1,500 hours/year over 7 years).

Data cloning

Settings for one projector can be copied to other projectors using a USB memory drive. This greatly simplifies installation and setup of multiple projectors.

Auto input select

The Auto Input Select feature automatically selects an active signal input, so there's no ned to change input each time a device is connected to the projector.

Auto power on

Connect the VPL-PHZ51 to a switched-on computer, and the projector turns on automatically without having to operate the power button.
