If you have been to the movies you have probably watched a film on a Christie projector. My local theater likes to show the little Christie logo film twice before it shows the film. Christie has announced some new projectors in the high-end Pro Av projector class.

The Christie M series has six new models ranging from 5000 lumens up to 9500 lumens and two resolutions are available including 1400 x 1050 and 1920 x 1080. Two new lens options are also offered on the series with a short zoom 1.25-1.6:1 SX+ / 1.16-1.49:1 HD and a long zoom 7.5-11.2:1 SX+ / 6.9-10.4:1 HD. Pricing is unknown, but this is one of those things that if you have to ask, you probably can’t afford.

"We're thrilled to offer an unprecedented number of standard features in this Series with no additional hardware or software required. In addition to the new Intelligent Lens System, we've added embedded warp capabilities, optical color space expansion, an easy-to-use web interface, high-end electronics, dynamic iris, multi-window processing, automatic shut-off, and more," adds Tsintzouras. "The feedback from our dealers has been tremendously positive – it's exciting to hear that we've hit the mark in terms of what they want."
