Panasonic Quartet Colour Harmonizer Realizes High Brightness and Accurate Colours

Expect saturated colour and finely expressed detail from next-generation 1-Chip DLP™ technology without sacrificing brightness thanks to Quartet Colour Harmonizer, an original colour-wheel technology with optimized optical design that precisely modulates light-source output according to colour requirements.

Supports 4K/60p Signal Input 

PT-RZ990 Series supports uncompressed 4K/60p signal input* via HDMI® or DIGITAL LINK terminals. The ability to play Ultra HD video at the projector’s actual resolution is useful when the same signal is distributed to multiple endpoints of differing display resolutions, making the hassle and expense of external converters a thing of the past. These projectors fit your system infrastructure and work flawlessly with other 4K-ready display devices.

^{* 4K signals are converted to the projector's resolution (1920 x 1200 pixels) upon projection.}

Optional Lenses Offer New Creative Possibilities

Eleven optional interchangeable lenses cover every installation situation at wide throw-distances from 0.280:1 to 8.58:1. Compatible lenses include the ET-DLE020 Ultra-Short-Throw Zoom Lens. As the world’s first UST lens with optical zoom, a range of post-installation adjustments are enabled via zoom and V/H lens-shift with zero screen offset. The mirrorless, aspherical glass lens suits compact projector bodies to enable front- or rear-projection in spaces otherwise too small to support short-throw projection.

Geometric Adjustment with Free Grid Correction

PT-RZ990 benefits from a proprietary Free Grid function built into onboard Geometric Adjustment that supports grid-based image adjustment via remote control. Grid resolutions of 2 x 2, 3 x 3, 5 x 5, 9 x 9, or 17 x 17 can be projected and areas of the image reshaped or geometrically altered to fix screen distortion. This correction is performed by adjusting control-points at grid-line intersections. Move freely between grid resolutions to achieve the desired level of granularity without losing work progress. This clever data-saving function allows technicians to quickly create a distortion-free image.

Filter less Projector Structure with Airtight Optical Block

Heat-pipe-based filter less cooling, dust-resistant architecture, and efficient airflow path enable deployment of a hermetically sealed optical engine. With dust resistance exceeding the industry’s toughest guidelines, you’re assured of a linear brightness ramp, superior colour uniformity, and maintenance-free projection for 20,000 hours^*1. These benefits are welcome when the projector is installed in a difficult-to-access location.

Estimated time until brightness decreases to 50 % varies depending on environment and usage conditions}

Dual Lasers for Failsafe Reliability

Dual laser optical engine groups diodes into two discrete modules. A redundancy circuit works to minimize brightness- and colour-uniformity loss in the unlikely event a diode fails, making supported products ideal for applications where picture presentation must be maintained.
