Midwich wins distribution rights

Distributor nets JVC contract

Midwich has been granted distribution rights for JVC’s True Black HD1 Intelligent Projection System, which was launched in February.

JVC’s other two distributors, Anders & Kern and Marata Vision, already stock the product.

Steven Carter, product specialist at JVC, told CRN: “It is the first projector with a native contrast ratio of 15,000:1. This is achieved without an iris mechanism to ensure true black reproduction and to make colours sparkle, highlighting subtle nuances in scenes. For example, stars in a night sky often look grey or are invisible, whereas the True Black projector enables you to see more stars and they look brighter.

“The price point is £4,000, so it is a high-end projector,” he added.

Midwich said it would focus the projector at the leisure and home cinema markets.
