Panasonic PT DW5100E

Panasonic PT DW5100E ... produce crisp, sharp images even when projecting images with a wide aspect ratio in ordinary daytime lighting.

The system daylight view function uses an image processing circuit to compensate for the loss of color saturation that occurs when light reflects onto the screen from bright surroundings. It is especially effective for producing crisp, sharp images in dark portions containing gradation. The function can be adjusted in three steps.

Newly developed AC lamps with full 300 watts of power offer excellent brightness and greater reliability then other types. A new lamp drive system also lowers the stress on the lampelectrodes while the lamps are lit. The new lamps have a lifetime of approximately 3,000 hours (lamp mode: low), which is reassuring for applications where the projector is frequently used. The AC lamps also minimize color irregularities.

Panasonic's original liquid-cooling system directly cools the DLP chip, which extends PT-DW5100E performance and attains a high level of reliability. It also enables operation in temperatures up to 45°C/113°F for use in a wider variety of environments, and maintains a more stable performance even in harsh conditons while keeping the operating sound down to a quiet 29dB.
