PROJECTORS
Digital Photo and Video Projection
Canon high-resolution REALiS projectors use LCOS technology to display all the detail and
texture captured by your digital camera – projecting sharp, seamless images with film-like quality.
Equipped with advanced color management settings, REALiS projectors have everything needed to
display photos and videos with exceptional color and accuracy, all in a compact unit.
Technology Designed to Meet
Professional Demands
Canon has created the REALiS line of multimedia
projectors to meet the exacting demands of
professionals in fields ranging from medical
education to the fine arts. Used everywhere
from corporate boards and conference rooms
to classrooms, photo galleries, and houses of
worship, from the largest venues to the most
intimate spaces, REALiS projectors have the
technology professionals need built right in.
Incorporating LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon)
technology, genuine Canon optics and Canon’s
high-accuracy color management system into
our patented AISYS (Aspectual Illumination
System) Optical Engine, Canon REALiS projec-
tors are able to reproduce even the subtlest
hues and color gradations. High resolution,
bright illumination and quiet performance
deliver compelling presentations that get
the job done. For professional performance,
true- to-life color reproduction and unmatched
clarity, there is no substitute for REALiS.
The LCOS Advantage
LCOS (Liquid Crystal On Silicon) Technology
delivers the highest standard in projector
image quality. Lattice-free, seamless photo
reproduction and smooth, film-like quality
video are projected with realistic colors and
intricate detail down to the smallest text.
Thanks to the fast response time of LCOS
Light from the projector lamp is separated
into red, green and blue, and then reflected
from each of the three LCOS panels. The
separated light is then recombined by the
polarized beam splitter. Since the light is
reflecting from the LCOS panels, there is
virtually no “screen door” effect.
Light from the projector lamp is separated
into red, green and blue, then passed through
each of the three LCD panels. The seperated
light is then recombined by a prism. The light
passes through the LCD panels as small dots,
which tend to create a lattice-like pattern on
the screen.
A constantly rotating color wheel reflects red,
green, blue, and white image components
off a micro-mirror device to produce the
projected image. The three primary colors are
sequentially displayed and synthesized in the
viewer’s brain to produce images perceived
as full color.
LCOS Projector (Three-Panel)
Comparing Technologies
LCD Projector (Three-Panel) DLP Projector (Single-Chip)
panels, high definition video leaps off the
screen with impressive quality and integrity.
The advantages of LCOS are easy to see for
presenter and audience alike: images and
video with rich color, deep contrast and
sharp resolution.
The AISYS Optical Engine
Canon’s proprietary AISYS
Optical Engine enhances
image quality by maximizing
the performance of the LCOS
panels and equalizing light from the
projection lamp. This results in notable
brightness, high contrast and exceptional
color reproduction. Designed for optimal
performance at a minimal size, the AISYS
Optical Engine allows for compact, light-
weight, cost-effective projectors. Canon has
continued to improve the optical elements
incorporated into the AISYS optical engine.
The uniformity of light has been enhanced to
further optimize image quality, and the
Polarizing Beam Splitters (PBS) (integral parts
of the color separation and recombination
system) have been redesigned to achieve
more precise light control. REALiS projectors
set an entirely new standard in bright, beautiful,
high-definition, high-contrast images.

Exceptional Picture Quality, Installation
Flexibility, and Affordability
The REALiS WUX450 and REALiS WX520 Pro AV Compact Installation LCOS
Projectors combine the exceptional picture quality of large installation
projectors with the plug-and-play convenience of portables. Each weighing
13 lbs., the REALiS WUX450 delivers WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution
at 4500 lumens while the REALiS WX520 delivers WXGA+ (1440 x 900)
resolution at 5200 lumens. Offering placement flexibility, both units
are equipped with a constant fixed f/2.8 aperture lens with virtually no
light loss through its entire 1.8x zoom range. Additional features include
outstanding power efficiency, built-in edge blending, four-point keystone
correction, and Network Multi Projection function.
Short Throw Projector with
Wide Range Lens Shift
The REALiS WUX400ST and REALiS WX450ST Pro AV Short Throw Compact
Installation LCOS Projectors are designed for easy installation and
flexibility. Each under 14 lbs., the REALiS WUX400ST delivers WUXGA
(1920 x 1200) resolution at 4000 lumens and a throw ratio of 0.56:1 while
the REALiS WX450ST delivers WXGA+ (1440 x 900) resolution at 4500
lumens and a throw ratio of 0.57:1. In addition to high-level brightness,
superior image quality, and resilient short throw capabilities, these
projectors offer a 0–75% vertical lens shift and ±10% horizontal lens shift.
These elements can eliminate complicated setups, reduce the amount of
space required for installations, and provide cost savings.
3LED Portable Projector with Excellent
Color Reproduction
Designed for the mobile device market, the compact and lightweight Canon
LE-5W Multimedia Projector is an ideal traveling companion for those who
need to quickly and vividly share presentations or visual information.
Weighing just 3.5 lbs. and featuring 500 lumens of brightness with a
1280 x 800 (WXGA) resolution and superb color fidelity, the LE-5W has
a throw ratio (1.2:1) that achieves large-screen projections even in tight
spaces. With built-in 2.5-watt stereo speakers, the LE-5W is also perfect
for home movies, video games, and still or streamed images via its wide
range of connectivity. The LE-5W provides “PC-free” presentations directly
from a USB thumb drive, SD card, or its own built-in 1.5GB memory.
