Pure White Generator Delivers High Brightness and Rich Colour

Pure White Generator, developed by Panasonic Connect, contributes to rich colour reproduction at high brightness. Efficient light collection uses a multi-reflection system to minimize loss of light-source energy noticeable with conventional systems. It achieves an optimal colour balance without sacrificing brightness for realistic and accurate colour expression.

Dynamic Contrast NX Realizes a New Dimension of Light and Dark Control

Dynamic Contrast NX, a further evolution of Dynamic Contrast, uses a newly developed video-scene analysis circuit to recognize differences in brightness and darkness more precisely than before.

Environmentally Friendly Energy-Saving Design, from Transport to Maintenance

Light and compact body improves loading efficiency and reduces CO2 emissions associated with transport. Laser light source and filter don’t need to be replaced for 20,000 hours, minimizing use of consumable parts and other waste. From transportation to operation and maintenance, the environmentally friendly design reduces labour and costs while supporting CSR, SDGs, and other green initiatives.

Multi-Laser Drive Engine Anticipates Unforeseen Circumstances

Multi-Laser Drive Engine ensures stable projection even if light-source problems occur. The projector is equipped with multiple modules consisting of many laser diodes, and in the unlikely event one of the elements malfunctions, Panasonic Connect's unique Failover Circuitry is activated so that projection can continue with virtually no reduction in brightness. This allows the projector to be used with peace of mind in situations where a drop in brightness could affect important presentations, such as large-scale lectures and seminars.

Long-Term Stability with Unique Liquid-Cooling System and Dustproof Structure

To achieve high brightness and stable operation, we adopted a liquid-cooling system originally developed for our DLP™ projection systems. This efficient design circulates cooling liquid to the light-source modules directly, preventing temperature increases associated with high-brightness projection. Combined with a highly reliable original dustproof structure, the system enables stable performance even in hot, dusty environments.

Backup Input Function for Enhanced Reliability

Backup Input function enables seamless projection even if the input signal is disrupted. With HDMI 1 set as the primary input and HDMI 2 set as the secondary input, the projector switches to HDMI 2 in as little as 0.3 seconds if the signal to HDMI 1 is disrupted. This improves reliability and ensures stable operation in environments where video presentation must not be interrupted.

Information Monitor for Changing Settings and Checking Status

Information Monitor is located on the main unit’s control panel and displays information such as temperature, voltage, operating hours, and input signals in real time. If a projector error occurs, the error number and associated details are immediately reported. The status of the main unit can be easily checked, and quick recovery from trouble is made possible.

Data Cloning Function Now Compatible with USB Memory

Data cloning function allows the user to copy settings and adjustment values from a Main projector to Sub projectors via LAN or USB memory device. This function reduces the time and effort required when setting up multiple projectors. (Note: Data-cloning is supported among models in the same series with the same resolution. Excludes passwords, projector ID, and network settings.)

Smart Projector Control App for Smooth Installation

Smart Projector Control app allows you to control the projector from a smartphone (Requires optional AJ-WM50 Series Wireless Module - sold separately). By scanning the QR code displayed on the OSD menu screen or Information Monitor and connecting to wireless LAN, switching input signals and other functions can be performed from a mobile device.

Geometric Adjustment Corrects Trapezoidal Distortion and Curved Screens

With built-in Geometric Adjustment, various distortions on the screen can be corrected via remote control. In addition to trapezoidal distortion resulting from angled projection, Curved Screen Correction fixes distortion caused by projection onto curved surfaces. Corner Correction allows the user to specify four screen corners, such as the upper right and lower right, for correction. Screen proportions can be maintained and corrections can be saved as data.

Free Grid Enables Pinpoint Correction of Local Distortion

In addition to built-in Geometric Adjustment function, Free Grid allows pinpoint correction of local distortion within the screen. Grids between 2 x 2 and 17 x 17 lines can be selected to allow point-by-point correction, or batch correction by specifying vertical and horizontal lines. Correction data is maintained even after changing the number of grids or points, allowing smooth transition from basic to detailed correction. This convenient function allows adjustment of special screens, such as irregular or uneven wall surfaces, with the remote control.

Preactivated Upgrade Kits for Geometry Manager Pro Software

For advanced screen adjustment, PT-MZ11K features Geometry Manager Pro software which expands built-in functions and enables adjustment from a PC. In addition to the standard functions included in the software, PT-MZ11K has built-in upgrade kits that allow access to all functions without license activation. PT-MZ11K offers unparalleled smoothness to reduce labor-intensive adjustment with camera-based geometric distortion correction, edge-blending, colour-matching, stacking, and automatic adjustment of brightness and black levels.

Black Level Correction to Match Screen Shape

With conventional black level correction, only the width and angle of the black border are specified for correction, making edge-blending on curved screens difficult. To solve this problem, PT-MZ11K is equipped with a function that allows the shape of black borders to be adjusted to match the screen shape. Using up to 17 points, flexible black level correction is possible even on curved screens, enhancing the sense of cohesion in multi-screen applications.

Remote Preview LITE for Remote Confirmation of Images

With Remote Preview LITE, you can check input images in advance even when it’s not possible to project content, such as outdoors during the daytime or during performance rehearsals. When your PC and the projector are connected to the network, you can use a web browser or Multi Monitoring & Control Software V3.3 or later to display thumbnail images of the input video. Check content even when the shutter is in use or the projector is in Standby while set to Pre-Show Mode to quickly identify any problems between the source device and the projector for faster recovery.

Detail Clarity Processor 4 Improves Dimensionality and Sharpness

Panasonic Connect's unique image quality correction circuitry reproduces details more clearly and sharply. It analyses video signal frequencies in each scene and adjusts for optimal sharpness based on information extracted from the signal. Compared to conventional image processing technology, this system reproduces images with an even more natural and three-dimensional feel.

Supports 4K Signal Input

Uncompressed 4K/60p input signals are supported via HDMI® or DIGITAL LINK. Since no external devices such as converters are required, 4K signals can be processed smoothly. This eliminates the need for re-encoding when the projector is used with other 4K-compatible equipment, making projection with 4K signals simple and efficient. (Input signals are converted to the projector’s display resolution upon playback. 4K/60p signals are supported via HDMI and DIGITAL LINK terminals. 4K/60p and 4K/50p signals input via DIGITAL LINK are supported in YPBPR 4:2:0 format only.)

Lens Line-up is Compatible with AFO (Active Focus Optimizer)

A variety of optional lenses are available to support a range of screen sizes between 80 and 600 inches, allowing you to select the optimal lens for your projection needs. These lenses are equipped with a temperature sensor and automatically correct focus in conjunction with the projector’s AFO function. This technology maintains a sharp image regardless of the brightness of the content, eliminating need for manual focus adjustment. Of course, powered lens-shift and zoom adjustment is also supported via remote control or Smart Projector Control app.

Compatible with Ultra-Short-Throw Zoom Lens for Space-Saving Installation

ET-EMU100 Ultra-Short-Throw Zoom Lens has a throw ratio of 0.330–0.353:1 and a screen size range of 100–400 inches, and enables large-screen projection even from tight installation spaces. With no gap (offset area) between the ceiling and the screen, ET-EMU100 eliminates need for adjustment and expands the range of visual expression by supporting the zoom function despite its ultra-short focus.
