4000 ANSI Lumens combined with DLP™ Technology
Ensures Eye-Popping Brightness and Realistic Colorimetry
4000 ANSI Lumens Brightness 
with Unique "Intelligent" Dual 
Lamp System
With Sharp's advanced DLP™ Optical 
Engine, matched with dual 250W high-
brightness lamps, the XG-PH50X achieves 
4000 ANSI Lumens, with excellent contrast 
and uniformity, delivering bright, clear 
images in large highly-lit rooms.
4-Mode Single/Dual Lamp Switch- 
over
With Sharp's Intelligent Dual Lamp System, you 
can choose the lamp arrangement to suit your 
needs.  When both lamps are utilized, the      
XG-PH50X delivers 4000 ANSI Lumens in 
standard mode and 3000 ANSI Lumens in low-
power "eco" mode.  When only a single lamp is 
used, the projector provides 2000 ANSI Lumens  in standard mode, and 1500 ANSI Lumens in 
"eco" mode. In single-lamp mode, the 
projector can be set up to alternate between 
lamps (with the projector automatically 
switches from one lamp to the other after 
approximately 100 hours).  This helps 
maintain even brightness, and minimize bulb 
purchases.  Sharp's Dual Lamp System further 
provides "redundant reliability" - an 
important consideration in mission critical 
applications. In the event one lamp should 
fail, the second lamp ensures continued 
The DLP™ Advantage
Consider these DLP™ 
Advantages of the XG-PH50X
•  Superior Reliability - Estimated DMD™ 
Life of approximately 20,000 hours with no
image degradation
•  1000:1 Contrast Ratio - For sharper, more 
detailed images with higher black levels
•  Faster Pixel Switching - For full-motion 
reproduction without blur, smear or ghosting
•  "Seamless" images - Without annoying 
pixelization or "screen door" effect
•  Smoother Video Performance - With vivid, 
more accurate colors
•  No Convergence Adjustments - One panel 
design means no fuzzy, misaligned images
•  Quieter Operation - 35 dB in standard mode; 
33 dB in "eco" mode
Power Zoom, Focus and H&V 
Lens Shift!
In addition to power zoom and focus, the 
XG-PH50X offers powered H&V (horizontal 
and vertical) lens shift. This allows 
exceptionally flexible projector placement, 
while minimizing keystone distortion.
Six Interchangeable Lenses
For use in almost any size venue, a total of 
six optional lenses are available.  This 
enables continuous throw ratios from 1.5 to 
7.0.  Five of the lenses are motorized; the 
sixth is a 0.8 fixed focus.  [Note, the 
projector may be purchased  either with a 
standard 1:1.2x power zoom lens attached 
("XG-PH50X"), or without lens ("XG-
PH50X-NL").]Sharp's industry-leading CV-IC technology and 
ImageACE resizing ensure compatibility with 
an exceptionally wide range of input sources 
and signal configurations.

DLP™ System*
The XG-PH50X employs a DLP™ display 
device system which outshines the 
alternatives because, being mirror-based, 
they use light more efficiently. While other 
technologies lose a certain amount of light 
in transit, the microscopic mirrors in this 
system bring more light from lamp to 
screen. The hundreds of thousands of 
mirrors in the DLP™ Digital Micromirror 
Device (DMD™) are spaced less than one 
micron apart, resulting in a very high "fill 
factor". By minimizing the gaps between 
pixels in a projected image, DLP™ 
projections systems create a "seamless" 
digital picture that's sharp at any size 
without pixelation or "screen door" effect. 
Long-life High-Performance 
DMD™ Panel
DMD™ silicon chip formation with finely
structured mirrors provides stable performance 
and delivers high-quality pictures for longer 
periods. The DMD™ chip and color wheel in the 
XG-PH50X achieves a lifetime of up to 20,000 
hours*. Also, because there is no burn-in or 
remaining after-image, the projectors are ideal 
for still picture projection such as guidance board 
applications and projecting CAD images.
*The lifespan is measured at the surrounding temperature of 
25ºC. This is a reference value and is not guaranteed.
DDR DLP™ with Sealed Optics
The XG-PH50X utilizes the latest DDR (Double 
Data Rate) DLP™ technology - incorporating a 4-
segment, 3-speed color wheel with sealed optics.
This provides higher contrast (1000:1), with 
superior color accuracy and dependability.  The 
sealed optics minimize dust, dirt and smoke from 
entering the system.  This ensures maximum 
reliability (with minimal maintenance) - even 
during extended use.

CV-IC (Computer & Video Integrated Composer) II System Technology
Color Management System
The level of color shade, chroma and tone can be 
set for each of six colors (red, yellow, green, cyan, 
blue, magenta), making possible more subtle 
adjustment of color.
sRGB Compatibility
sRGB Compatibility, the color reproductivity 
standard defined by the International Color 
Consortium, provides faithful reproduction of the 
original pictures in color hue, tone and gradation on 
a computer display.
Enhanced Three-Two Pull Down
Detecting the video source (DVD software) recorded 
in 24 frame/sec. format, the XG-PH50X can 
beautifully reproduce natural high-quality pictures 
without blur by converting into 60 frame/sec. 
progressive images.
Noise Reduction
Noise Reduction circuits perform high-level noise 
analysis, reducing picture blur, and providing clear 
pictures comfortable on the eyes.
Network ConnectivityPresentation Convenience
New Digital Keystone Correction
Conventional systems have difficulty adjusting a slanted 
screen horizontally and vertically without jagged lines. The 
XG-PH50X easily compensates for pictures projected 
on angles both horizontally and vertically by only spotting
on an angle is needed, 
preparation and
adjustment are quick and 
easy, allowing you to start
presentations smoothly
and without hassle.
Exceptionally Quiet Operation
The new intelligent multiple-fan control system 
eliminates annoying sound during presentations 
and meetings.
Other Key Features
Conventional IP Conversion New Pattern Matching Motion
Detective PMD-IP Conversion Example: The red tones in the picture can be enhanced.
Wireless (or Wired) 
Remote with Mouse 
Control
The remote may be used either 
wireless or "wired." And, with its 
built-in mouse control, presentations 
can be controlled directly from the 
remote.
Pattern Matching Motion Detective
PMD-IP Conversion
With conventional Motion Detective IP conversion,
horizontally slanted lines and edges become a 
dotted or jagged line when moved. With Pattern 
Matching  Motion Detective PMD-IP Conversion, 
correlated pattern matching that was impossible 
with pixel conversion is measured by sampling the 
pattern information with a length of visual data. 
The resulting new pattern produces smoother lines 
and edges,  providing higher quality pictures.

Resizing
The built-in video scaler automatically detects
input
signal characteristics and adjusts the picture 
for the highest quality image.
Picture-in-Picture
The XG-PH50X can add video 
images onto a data screen 
image, resulting in more 
interesting and effective 
presentations.
Control System Compatibility
The XG-PH50X provides superior compatibility with 
industry standard control systems from vendors such as 
Crestron, AMX, Extron® and Bitlogix™. A separate RS-
232C input allows for local control in conjunction with 
remote access via the LAN.
Multiple Projector Management
A management PC with Sharp Display Manager* 
software installed can control multiple projectors 
individually. In addition, "group" settings are possible 
for groups formed from these projectors. These 
settings enable each group to be controlled 
independently.
*Sharp Display Manager software can be downloaded at no charge 
from the following websites:

and management of the projector without the need for 
special software. In addition it can be programmed to 
send e-mail notification to up to five user designated 
addresses if a problem is detected. Notification includes 
lamp failure, overheating or cooling fan failure.
