Panasonic PT-DZ870UW WUXGA 1-Chip DLP Projector, White

A unique dual-lamp drive system has helped to make the body compact, while two newly developed, high-output, 420 W lamps provide high brightness of 8500 lm for the PT-DZ870. Dynamic Iris for a High 10000:1 Contrast Ratio Panasonic's Dynamic Iris uses a scene-linking aperture mechanism to achieve a remarkable 10000:1 contrast without lowering its high brightness. This helps to reproduce deeper, richer blacks and provides images with more detailed textures. The New Dynamic RGB Booster Enhances Both Brightness and Color Reproduction Panasonic's RGB Booster achieves high image quality with levels of color reproduction and brightness that make each color stand out. It combines Panasonic's proprietary Vivid Color Control technology with a Lamp Modulation Drive System for a 1-chip DLP projector that produces bright and vivid colors. This has been further advanced in the PT-DZ870 Series with the development of the Dynamic RGB Booster. Images are analyzed frame by frame and scene-linking and realtime modulation are used to achieve high brightness and vivid color reproduction. Vivid Color Control This unique control technology optimizes the use of the color segment areas of the color wheel. It increases the brightness of each RGB color by minimizing the unallocated portions between the colors, to achieve truly vivid coloring. Lamp Modulation Drive System With the advanced lamp modulation technology, the projector is able to control the lamp intensity for each of the red, green, blue and white segments of the color wheel separately. Because the actual light output is controlled in relation to each color segment, light usage is optimized and color balance is obtained without lowering the brightness. This results in bright vivid images with increased color fidelity. Detail Clarity Processor 3 Gives Natural Clarity to Even the Finest Details This unique Panasonic circuit optimizes the sharpness of each image, based on the super-high-, high-, medium- and low-frequency components of the extracted image information. The resulting images have more natural, lifelike expression. System Daylight View 2 for Enhanced Color Perception This unique Panasonic technology optimizes image quality to improve the color perception of the projected image in bright rooms. With a brightness of 8500lm, it provides highly comfortable viewing even in bright lighting and allows viewers to concentrate easily on the images. DICOM Simulation Mode This imaging mode is similar to DICOM part 14, which is a medical imaging standard. It reproduces X-ray images with remarkable clarity. Note: This product is not a medical instrument. Do not use it for actual medical diagnosis. Rec. 709 Mode for HDTV Projection Optimal color reproduction can be achieved by selecting this mode, compliant with ITU-R Recommendation BT.709, when images from an HDTV source are projected. Waveform Monitor Function When the output level of the source device fluctuates due to the performance of the device or its cable connections, the original black and white levels of the image content cannot be reproduced correctly. With the PT-DZ870 Series projector you can view the waveforms on the screen and adjust the settings either automatically or manually as you prefer. Full-HD Ready WUXGA Resolution The PT-DZ870 features native WUXGA resolution for full-HD viewing. This brings you lifelike projection of intricate, highly detailed images.

The Lamp Relay mode also operates the lamps alternately to enable 24/7 projection. Long Lamp Life Contributes to Low TCO The PT-DZ870 Series projectors lower the total cost of ownership because they have a lamp replacement cycle of up to 4000 hours Filter-Less Dust-Resistant Optical Engine A Heat-Pipe Cooling System Maintains Stable Operation up to 45 deg. C A new optical cooling system featuring a heat pipe block suppresses temperature rises inside the projector and allows stable operation up to an ambient temperature of 45 deg. C (113 deg. F). The use of this heat-pipe cooling system also achieves quiet operation, enabling viewers to concentrate on the presentation or on quiet movie scenes. Dust-Resistant Optical Block The optical block, the heart of the projector, is hermetically sealed to resist the effects of dust and other particles in the air, which makes it possible to remove the air filters for optics. It also contributes to the low TCO. Easy Lamp Replacement For easier maintenance, you can replace the lamp from the rear. This makes it easy to replace a lamp unit while the projector is still in the mounting bracket or dual stacked. System Integration Flexibility DIGITAL LINK - The Single Cable Solution Equipped with a DIGITAL LINK terminal, the PT-DZ870 Series allows transmission of HDMI, uncompressed HD digital video and control signals (Ethernet, RS-232C) for up to 100 meters (328 feet) through a single CAT5e (STP) cable or higher. This simplifies cabling and system upgrades, making it ideal for ceiling-mounted and other permanent installations. Also Supports Other Manufacturers' Peripheral Equipment DIGITAL LINK is an original function added to HDBaseT technology. Used together with the new ET-YFB100G Digital Interface Box or other compatible equipment, the installation of this projector is easier than ever, without any need for external receivers. Art-Net Compatible The PT-DZ870 Series projector is compatible with the Art-Net protocol for lighting management. Art-Net compatibility lets you connect the projector to the lighting console and operate functions such as shutter on/off, input change, power on/off, etc., together with the light control. Multi-Screen Support System Seamlessly Connects Multiple Screens The Multi-Screen Support System optimally adjusts multiple screens: Edge blending, Color matching and Digital image enlarging. Edge Blending The edges of adjacent screens can be blended and their luminance controlled. Digital Image Enlarging The PT-DZ870 Series features a digital zoom function that allows images to be enlarged up to 10 times (horizontally and vertically). Up to 100 units (10 x 10) can be edge-blended at a time to create large, multi-screen images. Multi-Unit Brightness Control This function automatically corrects the brightness fluctuations that occur over time in the individual projectors of a multi-screen system. Up to eight projectors can be controlled by connecting to each other via a hub and this can be increased to a maximum of 2,048 projectors by using "Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software." Geometric Adjustment for Specially Shaped Screens This function adjusts the image for projection onto spherical, cylindrical and other specially shaped screens. You can make the adjustment easily using only the remote control, with no external equipment needed. New 4-Corner Adjustment and Keep Aspect Off functions also simplify fine adjustment. Active 3D Projection Capability The series is compatible with both passive and active 3D projection systems. It combines with either a separate, external 100/120/144 Hz drive with IR emitter and active shutter glasses or an active filter and passive glasses, for viewing 3D images. Flexible Installation The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal/vertical lens shift function can be easily adjusted with the remote control. The unit can also be rotated 360 deg. vertically, to accommodate various installation conditions. The lens-centered design contributes to easy Installation. Multiple Terminals with HD-SDI Compatibility The PT-DZ870 Series has an array of terminals, including 3D sync, DVI-D and HDMI terminals. The PT-DZ870 also features an SDI (SD-, HD- and 3G-SDI) input terminal.
