Epson EMP-500
The EMP-500 is a "next generation" ultra portable projector. True SVGA resolution is combined with high brightness and excellent image quality in a new ultra-compact design.

Incorporating many features only previously available on high end projectors, the EMP-500 combines new miniaturised technology in an ultra small unit. New miniaturised optics, circuit board and a newly developed small size 120W UHP lamp enables the EMP-500 to produce a high bright 800 ANSI lumens. The newly developed retractable lens retains the compact size but also allows the lens to be protected during transportation.

The EMP-500 is a lightweight, high bright compact projector targeted at the mobile presenter requiring maximum portability, without sacrificing advanced features and brightness, for a versatile, professional presentation.
