Testurteil: "4.5/5"
Test: Einzeltest: Sony VPL-VW95ES
Zitat: Highly Rated
With the VPL-VW95ES, Sony has another winner on their hands. This premium projector emphasizes picture quality first and foremost, and every other aspect of the projector is constructed to complement the picture on the screen. While features like powered adjustments, Picture Position, and Motion Enhancer are helpful, they are not the reason why someone would buy this projector.
We are giving the Sony VW95 our Highly Rated award on the basis of its 2D performance, as it is a magnificent machine for 2D home theater. However, its 3D performance is weaker than some less expensive competitors. This does not reduce the projector´s value for those who need its strengths, those being a natural 2D picture and excellent gaming performance.
The Law of Diminishing Returns is an economics concept, and I´m no economist, but a version of it applies here. Is the VW95ES incrementally better looking than the Epson 5010 and Panasonic AE7000? Yes. Color temperature is more consistent, shadow detail is smoother, and the picture has that film-like quality that identifies a truly exemplary image. So is the VW95 "worth it"? Videophiles think so. If your only concern is image quality, the VW95 has it in spades.
If you´re out there looking for the best bang-for-the-buck, though, you´re going to end up scratching your head. There´s room in the projector market for both kinds of products, and people looking for one will rarely understand the allure of the other.
