DCI image quality
Built upon the proven benefits of Barco’s renowned DP2K cinema projectors, the DP2K-8S guarantees crisp images over time thanks to its acclaimed manual color convergence mechanism. While its standard Xenon lamps offer vibrant colors, its motorized lenses ensure a perfect image ratio at all times.
Low total cost of ownership
Geared with integrated technology that drives operational and maintenance costs down, the DP2K-8S offers DCI quality images and ultimate reliability at a low TCO. As such, it is the perfect choice for exhibitors looking for a worry-free solution to go digital with a minimal hassle and risk.
The DP2K-8S projector is also available in a package with a third-party media server and it can be ordered without the Barco Alchemy module as well.
