Comments by Projector Reviews staff:

The Sony VPL-GT100 projector  has great breeding.  This commercial 4K projector from Sony, is built on the same platform as their VPL-VW1000ES Home Theater Projector.  Art reviewed the home “version”, loves it and gave the VW1000ES our Outstanding Product of the Year award, earlier this year.    The VPL-GT100 looks to be an ideal solution when there can be no compromise in both resolution and color accuracy.  With 2000 lumens, this projector is ideal for a wide range of critical applications, from studio applications, screening rooms, super-hi resolution scientific and rendering applications.   Wherever WUXGA or 1080p is merely adequate, this 4K projector gives you four times the pixel count, and therefore can provide the same relative sharpness at half the viewing distance.   We look forward to reviewing the VPL-GT100 from a commercial perspective.  The VPL-GT100 will begin shipping this month (January 2013).
