Panasonic PT-VMZ61BU7 6200-Lumen WUXGA Laser LCD Projector
Overview
The Panasonic PT-VMZ61 6200-Lumen WUXGA Laser 3LCD Projector in black incorporates a laser light system that is ideal for meeting spaces and classrooms, letting you give presentations and teach lessons with the lights on and blinds open. All while enjoying a crisp WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution image with a 3,000,000:1 contrast ratio, which delivers vivid color, natural skin tones, vibrant whites, and deep blacks. Getting your content projected is easy, with either use a mobile device via PC software and app, a USB flash drive, or via QR code over wireless LAN. That projection can be easily adjusted and delivered onto angled surfaces, even corners, with 1.6x zoom, lens adjustment, and 6-point screen correction.
Daylight View Basic enhances image sharpness by clarifying detail definition in dark areas of the picture, which can be difficult to see in bright light. A sensor measures the amount of ambient light in the room and optimizes halftone color and brightness for the best results according to surrounding levels of illumination.
The projector uses about 20% less energy than the previous series. Efficiency is further increased, and brightness optimized to suit ambient light levels, just by pressing the ECO2 button on the remote control. Adopting energy-efficient Panasonic projection in your meeting rooms or learning spaces helps you to achieve CSR environmental policy objectives while reducing waste.
In typical office and classroom environments, the projector's reusable ECO Filter doesn't need replacement until about 20,000 hours. That equates to about 10 years of service assuming about 40 hours of projection per working week. If it's necessary to maintain the filter before then, it can be washed and reused up to two times, reducing waste and parts inventories and contributing to your CSR environmental policy objectives.
Built-in 1.6x optical zoom (1.09-1.77:1) supports projection from close range or from a distance, enhancing projector location flexibility and bringing large, easy-to-see images to rooms of different sizes and shapes. V/H Lens-Shift function offers +44% to 0% vertical adjustment, useful when projecting from a high ceiling, and ±20% horizontal adjustment to correctly place the image when projecting off-axis to the screen.
One consideration when updating your school or business projectors is: will the replacement projectors fit the existing mount positions on the ceiling? In some cases, the throw distance required to produce an image at the desired size might exceed the projector's optical zoom range. Panasonic answers the problem with a new Digital Zoom Extender function. It provides a convenient way to fit the image to your screen beyond optical zoom range, reducing the need to relocate your projector mounts and potentially saving you time, money, and hassle on your next refreshment cycle.
You can control the projector via a dedicated LAN terminal or via the HDBaseT-based DIGITAL LINK connection. Both interfaces support 100Base-TX and 10Base-T compatible control signals via Panasonic, PJLink, Crestron Connected, AMX DD, and Extron device control and management applications.
This projector features a 6-Point Screen Correction. It allows you to perform 4-Corner and Horizontal/Vertical Keystone Correction via remote control to remove trapezoidal distortion when projecting from an angle, such as a high ceiling. An extra two control points located at center top and bottom of the screen can be used to remove distortion when projecting an image into the corner of a room.
HDMI inputs are compatible with control signals sent via a CEC command, giving you limited control over the projector using the compatible source device's remote control. The projector power ups from Standby and commences playback automatically on command from a compatible player, such as optional Wireless Presentation System PressIT, when connected to the projector via HDMI.
This projector accepts 4K video input signals via DIGITAL LINK and HDMI terminals. This is a big advantage when integrating the projectors into existing 4K-ready system infrastructure where 4K signals are distributed to a network of display endpoints with different screen resolutions without having to use an external converter or to reencode the source.
DIGITAL LINK is a single-cable AV and control solution based on HDBaseT that supports 4K video, audio, and control-signal transmission via a single Cat 5e STP cable (or higher) for distances of up to 164' or 492' for 1080p video, reducing cabling cost and installation complexity when projectors are at a long distance from the server room.
Screen Adjustment fits the image to the screen when projecting from an unusual angle. Curved Screen Correction removes barrel or pincushion distortion for projection onto curved surfaces.
You can connect your mobile devices to the projector over wireless LAN (AJ-WM50 series wireless module required and sold separately) just by reading a QR code displayed in the projector's OSD menu with your smartphone's camera. No password or SSID entry is required. Then use Panasonic's free Wireless Projector app to beam select media stored on your device to the big screen. This feature saves time and prevents disruption to the flow of the class or meeting.
Mirror your device's screen on the projector screen almost instantly, no software needed. Wireless Presentation System PressIT can connect up to 32 devices to the projector wirelessly, and allows people to display their screens and switch presenters with a single button-press. PressIT comprises a CEC command compatible HDMI receiver on the projector side, and transmitters that connect to PCs or mobile devices. Just connect, press a button, and your device screen is displayed on the projector via the system's secure 5 GHz Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac)-compatible wireless LAN. Get more value from face-to-face interactions and streamline communication without cable hassle at a safe social distance.
This projector makes life easy for faculty and staff, who use the projectors every day. Auto Input-Signal Search function detects the active source device, switches to the corresponding input, and allows playback to commence without the user having to manually perform these operations.
When the projector is switched on, the startup screen is displayed almost instantly at full brightness, with no gradual fade-in you expect from a lamp projector. This helps to maintain the momentum of your lesson or meeting. And unlike lamp projectors, you can switch off the projector and unplug it without waiting for cooldown. Direct Power Off function allows the projector to be safely shut off via the room's breaker switch.
You don't even need a computer to start presenting-just insert a USB memory device containing compatible still images to the projector's USB port, press the NETWORK/USB button on the remote, select MEMORY VIEWER, and start presenting. Advance or go back to the previous slide using the arrow keys on the remote.
