Marketing Information |
The newest LCD home theater projector with
1080p (1,920 x 1,080 pixel) native resolution: the PT-AE2000U is
designed for savvy home theater enthusiasts and audio video
professionals who desire an immersive home entertainment viewing
experience, the new projector delivers 1080p images with a
carefully-tuned lens system to reproduce remarkable detail and clarity
with 1,500 lumen brightness and 16,000:1 contrast ratio.
The new PT-AE2000U model is the next evolution of its predecessor, the
PT-AE1000U, which has been widely accepted and used to display
professional movies. The new projector reproduces the original picture
quality intended by Hollywood movie and television directors -- all
within the comfort of consumers' home theaters.
Beautiful Picture Quality with Improved Clarity
The PT-AE2000U model comes equipped with Panasonic's new optical system
that's designed to display beautifully detailed images with a
captivating brightness of 1,500 lumens. Careful craftsmanship is
incorporated into each individual optical system by highly skilled
technicians to fully optimize the image for full high definition (HD)
resolution. The projector's new Detail Clarity Processor analyzes
frequency characteristics of each frame in three dimensions (horizontal,
vertical, and along the time axis) and applies necessary sharpness at
varying degrees to create natural, life-like images with exceptional
clarity.
The PT-AE2000U projector reproduces Hollywood movies, independent films
and other entertainment with exceptional color accuracy. Its enhanced
unique Pure Color Filter Pro uses optical adjustment to achieve a higher
purity level of the three primary colors; it also helps displays deeper,
purer blacks. The color space has been extended even more to match the
approximate level specified in the digital cinema industry.
The new projector also incorporates Panasonic's well-known Smooth Screen
technology that reduces the black lines between pixels that mar picture
quality. The technology has been tuned together with the new full-HD
optical unit, allowing consumers to enjoy vibrant, smooth images found
in commercial movie theaters. In addition, Panasonic's original Dynamic
Iris has also been improved for further stability and response by
controlling the iris speed at finer increments to help reproduce darker
blacks and brighter whites.
The image processing system has been improved dramatically, with a
maximum of 16 bit digital signal processing making it possible to
reproduce subtle hues and brightness variations faithfully with greater
smoothness. Furthermore, the projector also incorporates
next-generation, full high definition LCD panels (C2Fine), which are
characterized by inorganic alignment layer and vertically aligned liquid
crystals for enhanced black level performance.
Professional-Level Features
The new LCD projector also comes equipped with professional-level
features that let users personalize the images they see on the screen.
First, the projector's Split Adjust mode allows users to split the
screen into two halves, one to make picture adjustments and one to see
those adjustments as a baseline reference. Second, the PT-AE2000U's
waveform monitor -- seen mostly on professional video and film equipment
-- measures the level of brightness output from a given video signal
source. This feature also now automatically verifies that the source
device is outputting at full dynamic range, and quickly makes
adjustments to optimize it for your home theater setting. Users can
easily see a graphical representation of any changes made to the unit's
color settings.
In addition, the Cinema Color Management feature helps color correct
approximately 1,070,000,000 different colors for a more refined,
customized control of individual colors -- closely representing the
process used by Hollywood's motion picture color correction specialists.
The PT-AE2000U also incorporates picture modes demanded by film
production studios to help them with production and post-production
activities. You can now store up to eighteen personalized settings with
customized names.
Ease of Use
The PT-AE2000U is now equipped with three HDMI inputs, so you can
connect multiple HD sources without a HDMI switcher. Set-up and
installation are a snap with the PT-AE2000U projector's 2x powered zoom
and its wide lens shift range. Thanks to both features, the new model
can cast a 120-inch diagonal image from as little as 3.6 meters (about
11 feet) to 7 meters (24 feet) from the screen. The new projector's lens
shift capability enables full, 100 percent vertical adjustment and 40
percent horizontal adjustment so that viewers can suspend the projector
close to the ceiling in a stylish fashion, or conveniently place the
projector on a book shelf.
The projector's lens-centered design and maintenance features, such as
the replaceable side filter and top lamp, make the ceiling mount very
easy to install. The PT-AE2000U's jet black color and sleek cabinet
design also fit well in home theater environments, and its universal
remote control enables viewers to easily control their entire home
theater system from one device. |
