It also has an Auto235 mode that automatically positions Optoma’s optional anamorphic lens/sled kit to move the lens into place without user intervention for enhanced 2.35:1 content viewing. The projector features a 50,000:1 contrast ratio, and a brightness of 1600 ANSI lumens and the list price for it is $7499.99.For more information, please go to http://www.optomausa.com/
