Suitable for corporate meetings, lecture theatres and hybrid environments, Panasonic has announced what it is calling the world’s smallest, lightest and quietest 20,000 lumens LCD projector.
It features a 22.3kg chassis and quiet operation (36dB), for a balance of high brightness and colour, the PT-MZ20K has a tuned optical engine featuring new 1-in LCD panels. Pure white generator harnesses extra light to improve colour accuracy for presentations.
Two 4K input-signal and CEC Command-compatible HDMI inputs enable On/Off control of the source device or Panasonic’s wireless presentation system, PressIT.
Additional time savings can be obtained with the NFC function, which supports IP set-up without AC power; the smart projector control app with auto-focus via smartphone camera; preactivated upgrade kits for geometry manager oro; and information monitor to display status on standby.
Compatible with a range of optional Panasonic lenses, such as the zero-offset ET-EMU100 Ultra-Short-Throw Zoom Lens, the PT-MZ20K can also be used for digital signage or in museums and entertainment venues.
The reusable air filter and laser light-source are maintenance-free for 20,000 hours. Failover circuitry prevents brightness loss from diode failure, while backup input prevents screen-blanking to provide peace of mind in mission-critical situations.
