PANASONIC
ANNOUNCES NEW HIGH BRIGHTNESS,
HIGH PERFORMANCE PORTABLE PROJECTOR
ATLANTA, GA (June 9, 2004) – Panasonic has introduced
the PT-L785 portable, high-brightness XGA LCD projector
here at INFOCOMM.
The new 13-pound LCD projector delivers stunning pictures, text and graphics
for computer and video applications in classrooms, conference rooms, auditoriums,
church halls and other mid-to-large venues. The PT-L785 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. The projector’s progressive
cinema scan (3/2 pull down) circuitry reproduces moving images in crisp, ultra-clear
resolution, and its sRGB color management assures highly-accurate color reproduction.
The PT-L785 offers a wide range of interface capabilities including three RGB
inputs; 24-pin DVI-D, S-Video and composite video inputs; and RS-232C and wired
LAN connectability. When connected to a wired LAN, the PT-L785 has an assigned
IP address, allowing a user to operate it remotely, check its status using a
web browser on a networked PC, and the projector can send e-mail messages to
notify an user when the unit’s operating condition changes or a lamp needs
replacing. The wired LAN connection drives down support costs and minimizes downtime.
To ensure easy operation, the PT-L785 has a powered 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.
The PT-L785 is outfitted with a host of useful anti-theft functions including
a Kensington lock, user password protection, control panel lock-out (which can
only be canceled by the unit’s remote control), and text superimposing
whereby a user can program a text line - such as the company’s name, URL
or warning of choice - at the bottom of the projected image.
Its Direct
Power Off function utilizes a built-in capacitor to keep the PT-L785’s fan running to
cool down the projector even when the power is turned
off. Other invaluable features include two 2 Watt speakers,
the ability to project on screens from 40” to
300, and easy lamp replacement via the unit’s
back panel.
Optional click-in type interchangeable lenses for short/long/extra-long
throw ratios include the ET-LE10 1.3-1.7:1 zoom lens,
ET-LE20 2.6 – 4.2:1 zoom lens and ET-LE30 4.0-5.6:1
zoom lens. A wireless USB mouse receiver (ET-RMRC2)
is also an option.
The PT-L785 is available in August at a suggested list
price of $5,999. |
