SDC-12 Wolf Cinema’s “GRAYWOLF 4K” 3D Cinema Projector
Wolf Cinema is proud to announce our next-generation Wolf Cinema V4K™ projector, and the 
second in the GrayWolf series – model SDC-12, aka “GrayWolf 4K”. Developed for the true 
home theater enthusiast, the all-new SDC-12 is the perfect home cinema projector enabled for 
imaging excellence in 2D and 3D [stereoscopic] viewing.
The SDC-12 boasts a next generation three-chip, D-ILA® [Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier] 
light engine for high fidelity viewing. D-ILA is an advanced technology developed by the Victor 
Company of Japan [JVC], which produces stunning film-like pictures with deep contrast level 
performance and natural color renditions. The system is complemented by advanced video 
processing plus precision optics for razor-sharp imaging from today’s most demanding HD 
sources. Each projector is carefully hand-calibrated at the factory for top performance when 
viewing both 2D and 3D content.
Also featured in our SDC-12 theater projector is Wolf Cinema’s advanced V4K technology, delivering 
ultra-high resolution 3840 X 2160 performance from standard HD sources [broadcast, Blu-ray and 
more]. V4K merges two full frame 1080p images, and by a precision 0.5 pixel offset the projector 
can virtually eliminate the visible “pixel gate” often experienced in other HD projectors. The result? 
A seamless, filmic image that can easily fill home theater screens up to 12-feet in width.
New this year is an expanded Wolf Cinema VariScope™ lens memory system. This system 
enables rapid access to five of your favorite widescreen aspect ratios – ex: 1.78:1, 1.85:1, 
2.20:1, 2.35:1 and 2.40:1 – without the need for an external anamorphic lens. Now everyone 
can enjoy the full CinemaScope® widescreen experience without unwanted top/bottom “black 
bars” on suitable theater screens.
The SDC-12 is delivered in an elegant high gloss dark gray cabinet, and comes complete with 
a system IR remote control, LAN and RS-232 system control capabilities. Updated Wolf Cinema 
3D shutter glasses and emitter are also available.
