Sony VPL-FH35 Pro Reviews

The combination of high resolution, excellent data image quality, better than par video quality, and a suitable level of brightness makes the Sony VPL-FH35 an attractive choice. The DICOM GSDF simulation makes it of particular interest for medical-related use. Also very much on the plus side are the 1.6x zoom and lens shift, which give significant flexibility in where you can place the projector. The lamp life counts as another small plus. Although the 2,500 hour lifetime, or even the boost to 3,500 hours in Eco mode, isn't impressively long, it's enough longer than the more typical 2,000 hours to make a difference. At $499 list per lamp, even one fewer lamp used over the life of the projector contributes to a lower total cost of ownership and one less climb up the ladder to replace a lamp. All told, the Sony VPL-FH35 is an impressive choice, with lots of good points, no serious shortcomings, and not even many minor issues to detract from its strengths. Quite simply, it's a bright projector with a high resolution, a high quality image, and a more than reasonable price. If you need a projector for a large conference room or small auditorium, count it as a strong contender.
