Panasonic Ships Portable XGA Projector
August 09, 2004
Secaucus, NJ - Panasonic's new PT-L785U portable, high-brightness XGA LCD projector is now shipping.
The PT-L785U offers 3200 lumens of brightness, a 500:1 contrast ratio, and displays vibrant images (in 16.7 million colors) in true 1024 X 768 XGA resolution, with a maximum resolution of 1600 x 1200 UXGA, the manufacturer describes. The projector utilizes advanced digital processing technologies -- including progressive cinema scan (3/2 pull down) circuitry, a 3D Digital Comb Filter and Dynamic Sharpness Control – to reproduce ultra-crisp, ultra-clear pictures.
The 12.8-pound PT-L785U has a motor-driven zoom/focus lens, one-touch auto setup and horizontal and vertical digital keystone correction. The HDTV-ready projector automatically synchronizes to display 1080i, 720p, 480p and 480i video, and supports most worldwide video standards, including NTSC, PAL and SECAM.
Its Direct Power Off function utilizes a built-in capacitor to keep the PT-L785U’s fan running to cool down the projector even when the power is turned off, thereby saving lamp life and protecting the components against lamp heat.
The projector also offers a wide range of interface capabilities including three RGB inputs; 24-pin DVI-D, S-Video and composite video inputs; and RS-232C connectability.
Other invaluable features include: quiet operation (as low as 35dB), sRGB color management to assure highly-accurate color reproduction, two 2-Watt speakers, the ability to project on screens from 40” to 300”, easy lamp replacement via the unit’s back panel, 4X digital zoom, selectable 9-language on-screen menu, advanced shutter for image muting, a freeze function, color temperature selection (standard/high/low), picture mode selection (standard/dynamic/natural), built-in carry handle, a cable cover (standard), and a full-function wireless remote with mouse control and laser pointer.
The PT-L785U is available at a suggested list price of $5,999.
