"NEW YORK, June 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- (CE Week, Booth #116) -- Epson, the number-one projector manufacturer in the world, today announced the new, premium Pro Cinema 6040UB and Pro Cinema 4040featuring 4K Enhancement Technology1 Epson's first Pro Cinema projectors with 4K UHD signal input and high dynamic range (HDR) support. These newly designed Pro Cinema projectors deliver up to 2,500 lumens of color brightness and 2,500 lumens of white brightness2 and an expansive color gamut to display the entire sRGB and DCI color spaces3. The projectors are engineered with up to 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and display high dynamic range content, with eye-popping bright colors and Ultra Blacks for a fully immersive large-screen experience."

(Pseudo) 4k and HDR coming to projectors below $4000! This is a good but tough time to be shopping for a new projector. HD projectors are $2500 but transitional 'FauxK' projectors are now out for $4000 or less.

And I'm even more confident there will be true 4k HDR projectors for under $5000 in two or three years.

Friends don't let friends buy fake 4K when perfectly serviceable 1080Ps are in wide production at great prices. Wait for real 4K and both DV and HDR 10 in one unit is my advice to anyone who has more sense than money.
