Smooth and Detailed 4K Images from the Smallest, Lightest LCD Projector in Its Class

Making Immersive 4K Visuals More Accessible

Panasonic’s first 4K¹ LCD projector delivers immersive detail from a sub-8 kg body—the smallest and lightest in its class². Proprietary 2-axis pixel-shifting technology and high 8,000 lm³ brightness ensure clear, dimensional 4K¹ visuals even in bright rooms. Precise detail reproduction suits diverse applications—from corporate and education spaces to experiential attractions such as museums—while Vivid Green Mode enhances natural greens for golf simulation.

^{1. Displayed resolution (3840 x 2400 pixels) with 2-axis pixel-shifting technology [ON].}
^{2. As of January 2026, according to our research, the PT-VMQ85 is the smallest and lightest 4K LCD projector with more than 8,000 lm, and the PT-VMQ75 is the smallest and lightest among those with more than 7,300 lm.}
^{3. Measured when [PICTURE MODE] is set to [DYNAMIC] and [LIGHT POWER] is set to [NORMAL]. Measurement, measuring conditions, and notation method comply with ISO/IEC 21118: 2020 international standards. Value is the average of all products when shipped.}

Easy to Handle with Flexible Installation

A compact, lightweight design and convenient adjustment tools simplify transport, installation, and image alignment. The 1.6x optical zoom and wide-range lens shift provide flexibility to fit various installation spaces, while Angle Monitor streamlines single-person installation. With 4K DIGITAL LINK⁴ and two CEC command-compatible⁵ HDMI™ inputs, the series integrates into existing systems and supports widescreen (21:9/27:9) formats⁶ for modern visual applications.

^{4. YP}_^B^P_^R^{4:2:0 format only for 4K/60p signals input via DIGITAL LINK.}
^{5. Depending on the connected CEC command-compatible device, the link control may not operate normally.}
^{6. Resolution may be reduced when projecting widescreen content at its native aspect ratio.}

Efficient, Eco-Conscious Design

Advanced optical engineering delivers high-brightness 4K¹ performance with outstanding energy efficiency of up to approximately 20 lm/W⁷. An Image Detection⁸ function automatically reduces light output when the projected image remains unchanged for a set period, saving power. The projector’s plastic body parts incorporate approximately 50%⁹ recycled resin, while recyclable paper trays replace foam insulation in the shipping carton, further reducing environmental impact.

^{7. For the PT-VMQ75 (light output: 7,300 lm, max. power consumption: 360 W). Values are preliminary.}
^{8. Settings cannot be made when [DYNAMIC CONTRAST] is set to anything other than [OFF], [ECO MANAGEMENT] → [AUTO POWER SAVE] is set to [OFF], [ECO MANAGEMENT] → [LIGHT POWER] is set to anything other than [NORMAL], a [TEST PATTERN] is displayed, or there is no signal. Image Detection function is supported when the input signal is transmitted via HDMI™ or COMPUTER IN terminals.}

Footnote Description	When [PICTURE MODE] is set to [DYNAMIC] and [LIGHT POWER] is set to [NORMAL]. Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO/IEC 21118: 2020 international standards. Value is average of all products when shipped. Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with American National Standards Institute standards. Value is the average of all products when shipped. Average light-output value of all shipped products measured at the center of screen in NORMAL Mode. Around this time, light output will have decreased to approximately 50 % of its original level ([PICTURE MODE]: [DYNAMIC], [DYNAMIC CONTRAST] set to [2]). Estimated time until light outputdeclines to 50 % varies depending on environment. Displayed resolution (3840 x 2400 pixels) with 2-axis pixel-shifting technology [ON]. Resolution decreases when using Digital Zoom Extender. Grid Adjustment, 6-Point Screen Correction, V/H Keystone Correction, and curved-screen correction are not available when using this function. The range of corner adjustment is limited. When Digital Zoom Extender is set to 80 %. Depending on the connected CEC command compatible device, the link control may not operate normally. YPBPR 4:2:0 format only for 4K/60p signals input via DIGITAL LINK. On standby, power supply is available with Quick Startup set to ON or Power Management set to Ready. The optional AJ-WM50 Series Wireless Module does not support IPv6. Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO/IEC 21118: 2020 international standards. On-mode power consumption measured at 25 °C (77 °F) operating temperature at an altitude of 700 m (2,297 ft). Filter cleaning cycle varies depending on the environment. The filter can be washed and reused up to two times. Filter cleaning cycle: 20,000 hours (under dust conditions of 0.08 mg/m³), 10,000 hours (under dust conditions of 0.15 mg/m³). Average value. May differ depending on the actual unit. Light output is limited at operating temperatures higher than 30 °C (86 °F), and projectors cannot be operated at altitudes higher than 2,700 m (8,858 ft) above sea level. When the optional AJ-WM50 Series Wireless Module is attached, the operating temperature range becomes 0–40 °C (32–104 °F). When using Presenter Light Software, images are projected with 1280 x 800 dots or 1024 x 768 dots onto the screen. Also, your PC display resolution may be forcibly changed, and audio playback disrupted or become noisy while images and sound are being transmitted. When using the Wireless Projector app, display resolution differs depending on youriOS/Android^TM device and the display device. The maximum supported display resolution is WXGA (1280 x 800).
