Sanyo PLV-Z4000 Projector Specifications The Sanyo PLV-Z4000 is sharper than the average 1080p projector. It’s a touch better than most 3LCD projectors and also most of the LCoS models. On the other hand, many of the similarly priced DLP projectors (single chip) will be a bit sharper still than the Z4000. These are differences that are going to be pretty subtle when watching movies, but more so, with all digital 1080p content. Overall, sharpness is pretty good! plv-z4000LG_CF181DDLA-RS25HC6800PreviousNext HC7000HC38008500UBHD20PreviousNext Please note, we are slowly switching to using the Playstation video logo as our sharpness example, instead of the old dts-hd logo. The original sample test disc from dts died, and they can’t find me another. 1.
