Description
Panasonic’s unique quad-lamp system, with its new high-power UHM lamps, has helped to make the body
extremely compact while providing an astounding 20,000 lm* of brightness.
* The PT-DW17K has 17,000 lm of brightness.

Panasonic’s Dynamic Iris uses a scene-linking aperture mechanism to achieve a remarkable 10,000:1* contrast
without lowering its high brightness. This helps to reproduce deeper, richer blacks, and provides images
with more detailed textures.
* Full on/off, with dynamic iris set to “3”.

This unique Panasonic circuit optimizes the sharpness of each image, based on the
super-high-, high-, medium-, and low-frequency components of the extracted image information. The resulting images have more natural, lifelike expression.

This unique Panasonic technology optimizes image quality to improve the color perception of the projected image in bright rooms.
With a brightness of 20,000 lm*, it provides highly comfortable viewing even in bright lighting, and allows viewers to concentrate easily on the images.
* The PT-DW17K has 17,000 lm of brightness.

This imaging mode is similar to DICOM part 14, which is a medical imaging standard. It reproduces X-ray images with remarkable clarity.
* This product is not a medical instrument. Do not use it for actual medical diagnosis.

Frame Packing
Images for the left and right eyes are transmitted in one frame while the resolution for each remains as it is.

Side by Side
Images for the left and right eyes are transmitted in one frame while horizontal resolution is reduced by half.

Top and Bottom
Images for the left and right eyes are transmitted in one frame while the vertical resolution is reduced by half.
