More lumens, brighter ideas.

The IN42+ boasts 4,000 max ANSI lumens—bright enough to leave the lights on, or the window shades open during presentations. Upgraded LCD panels feature onboard Micro-Lens Array to eliminate pixel isolation while producing high contrast ratios and better color saturation. In addition, the ultra-precise manual zoom, focus, and lens shift allow for the finest adjustability available.
