Panasonic PT-EX16KU

The new PT-EX16KU uses a Quad Drive LCD light engine to achieve a wider color space than conventional 3-panel LCD projectors. It does this by using a fourth panel as a filter to dynamically shape the green light spectrum to realize both the wider color space of a narrow band filter and the high light output of a wide band filter. The result is a 16K Lumens light output with a color space that is 20% wider than conventional 3-LCD projectors.

4-Lamp Optical System. The 4-lamp optical system uses high-output, 380 W lamps to deliver remarkable 16,000 lm brightness. And the contrast ratio is a high 2,500:1, to ensure bright, crisp, large-screen projection.

Full 10-Bit Image Processing System. The use of a full 10-bit image processing system provides smooth tonal expression. For example, skin tones appear natural and true to life.

Highly Durable Optical Engine. The LCD panels and polarizers inside the LCD projector’s optical block tend to degrade over time. Their degradation strongly and adversely affects image quality. The inorganic LCD panels and polarizers in the PT-EX16K resist time-related changes to achieve a replacement cycle of up to 10,000 hours. This maintains high image quality for a very long time.

Long-Lasting Air Filter. The use of a large pleated air filter has made it possible to achieve a replacement cycle of up to 5,000 hours. This greatly reduces maintenance hassles. The filter is also replaced from the front, so there is no need to detach the projector from its bracket in ceiling-mounted applications. When the projector is used in a heavy air contaminant environment such as around smoke or fog machines, the smoke filter accessory is recommended.

Horizontal & Vertical Lens Shift Function. Both zooming and focusing can be done by remote control. The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal/vertical lens shift function assures convenience and versatility during installation.

A Variety of Lenses. A variety of lenses are available, from short or long focus zoom lenses to fixed focus lenses for rear projection. This makes it possible to install the projector in a variety of locations.

Flexible Installation. The projector can be rotated 360° vertically for flexible installation. This allows projection from directly above or below, for exciting visual possibilities in art galleries, theaters and showrooms.

Corner Keystone Correction. All you need to do is designate four points as the corners of the projected image, and this function automatically carries out horizontal and vertical keystone correction.

Versatile Interfaces. The wide-ranging terminals include 2 sets of RGB inputs, an HDMI input, and a DVI-D input. Mounting the optional Interface Board ET-MD16SD1 also accommodates HD/SD-SDI signal input.

Illuminated Terminals and Control Panel. The terminal connection area is LED illuminated, and a backlight is provided for the control panel buttons, ensuring smooth and easy operation in the dark.

Mechanical Shutter for a Total Screen Blackout. The Mechanical Shutter lets you mechanically block the light to completely blackout the screen, and prevents light leakage from the lens. When closing the shutter, the projection image gradually fades out, then gradually fades in when opening, which brings more attractive stage effects.

Projector Control: The included Wired/Wireless remote supports up to 64 different projector ID codes. Using the projector’s LAN port, the projector is PJLink™ (Class 1) compatible, an open protocol that is used by many manufacturers to enable integrated control of systems that contain different brands of projectors. A Web browser on a computer connected through a wired LAN system lets you remotely operate projectors and check their status. An e-mail messaging function can also notify you when a lamp needs replacement, and indicate the overall projector status. In addition, Multi Projector Monitoring and Control Software is available for monitoring and controlling multiple Panasonic projectors from a single PC.

3-Year Warranty. You will receive the full U.S. factory warranty covering labor, materials and shipping on everything but the lamp which is covered by a 90 day warranty.
