Additionally, Canon Introduces a New High-End 4K Zoom Lens, the RS-SL07RST
BRAMPTON, ON, November 13, 2018 – Canon Canada Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced a new Canon Native 4K Laser LCOS Projector - the REALiS 4K6020Z. Compact and lightweight, it measures 18.8in (W) x 7.1in (H) x 21.4in (D) and weighs a mere 41.8 pounds, making it the world’s smallest and lightest projector in its class at less than half the weight of competing Native 4K laser projectors**. In addition, it offers peace of mind with an impressive Five-Year (or 12,000 Hours) Laser Limited Warranty***. Canon is also adding to the company’s lineup of RS projector lenses with the introduction of the RS-SL07RST 4K Standard Zoom Lens. The RS-SL07RST projector lens is the seventh in the lineup and features Canon’s trademark red line around the barrel of the lens, signifying the highest level of Canon optical engineering and quality. All seven RS projector lenses are compatible with the 4K6020Z .
Canon REALiS 4K6020Z Native 4K Laser LCOS Projector
The new 4K6020Z Native 4K Laser LCOS Projector is ideal for a variety of applications, including art galleries, museums, schools and medical institutions. It is also suitable for product design and simulation use where both high-quality imaging and accurate colour reproduction are a must. The 4K6020Z features a LCOS panel and Canon’s proprietary AISYS optical system that helps to deliver 6000 lumens. This technology, when combined with true Native 4K (4096x2160) resolution, helps the 4K6020Z to produce a cleaner and more robust image with virtually no grid lines.
The laser-light source can achieve up to 20,000 hours of operation in typical use or up to 40,000 hours when in Long Duration Mode 2****. The laser-light source allows the projector to start up in as little as two seconds while in Fast Boot mode***** as compared to conventional lamp projectors that may require additional time to light up and stabilize brightness. In addition, users are able to create presets to be set-up to their specific preferences and needs.
The HDR technology of the 4K6020Z increases the dynamic range ability, expanding not only the colour-gamut range but also the overall brightness, resulting in a more realistic and lifelike image. Additionally, it supports HDR10 and Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG), which produce broadcast-quality HDR images. HLG is becoming widely popular in broadcast industry use.
Additional Features of the 4K6020Z Include:
- Compatible with seven optional genuine Canon interchangeable lenses for a wide variety of applications
- High dynamic contrast of up to 22,000:1 is achieved by the combination of a powerful image engine that analyzes the contrast of each frame and a double-door type shutter system which allows the iris to operate fast -- tracking scenes instantly and reducing light leaks.
- Covers 99.9 percent of the sRGB colour space
- Supports HDMI, HDBaseT, Wi-Fi® technology and other various interfaces
- Compatible with Canon Service Tool for PJ App
- Six preset Image modes provide different variations of colour reproduction characteristic suitable for the type and projection environment, includes DICOM****** Simulation mode and additional five customizable modes that can be stored
Canon RS-SL07RST 4K Projector Lens
The new RS-SL07RST 4K Standard Zoom Lens features the distinguished red line around the barrel, indicating the highest level of Canon design and superb image quality. The lens can project images up to 600 inches and can even project onto curved surfaces; maintaining focus in the centre of the image when peripheral focus has been adjusted.
Additional Features of the RS-SL07RST Projector Lens Include:

- Substantial lens shift of vertical ±73 percent and horizontal ±11 percent

- Equipped with a UD lens to help reduce colour shift and bleeding
- Minimal luminance difference from wide to tele position as F value exhibits minor change from 2.1 to 2.4
- Deep focal length of 22.67mm up to 37.79mm
- Large zoom ratio of 1.76x
- Weighing in at 4.1 pounds, the easy-to-install lens can be conveniently secured in place or quickly taken out to be replaced with only one touch, using the spigot-type lever
