SOLID SHINE Laser phosphor drive with advanced LCD optical engine projects bright, vivid, and detailed images regardless of artificial light levels in the room. Text is finely resolved, while graphics and video retain high color saturation and contrast for immersive viewing.
High brightness
4,500 lm of brightness from a Panasonic PT-VMZ40 weighing just 7.2 kg (15.87 lbs), currently the smallest and lightest LCD laser projector series in the world. High brilliance makes pictures pop even under the glare of interior lights, making projection more engaging than ever.
High 3,000,000:1 Contrast
High-precision digital laser light output modulation achieves 3,000,000:1 dynamic contrast while minimizing power consumption. High-contrast performance adds depth, dimensionality, and realism to video, defining details in shadows even when bright and dark scenes frequently interchange.
Daylight view
Daylight View Basic enhances sharpness by optimizing detail reproduction in dark areas of the image, which can be difficult to see in bright light. A sensor measures ambient light, allowing halftone color and brightness to be optimized to best suit the surrounding level of illumination.
Reusable air filter
In areas with average levels of dust, such as classrooms and offices, the PT-VMZ40 projector’s air filter doesn’t require maintenance for up to 20,000 hours. The eco-friendly filter can be washed and reused up to two times, saving on replacement costs.
Single-Cable DIGITAL LINK Control and Video Connection
Upward HDBaseT™-compatible DIGITAL LINK supports transmission of uncompressed Full HD video and control commands through a single CAT 5e or higher STP cable for distances of up to 150 m (492 ft). Add an optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher or Digital Interface Box to further simplify installation in large venues while reducing cost and improving reliability at the same time.
1.6x Zoom Lens and Lens shift function
The 1.6x zoom lens with flexible 1.09–1.77:1 throw-ratio enables large-format projection from close up or far away from the screen: ideal for permanent installation in large or small rooms. Wide-range Vertical/Horizontal Lens-Shift aligns the image to fit the projection surface in moments. This is handy when the projection position is too high, too low, or off-center.
Supports 4K signal
The Panasonic PT-VMZ40 supports 4K/30p signal input via HDMI® or DIGITAL LINK terminals, enabling seamless integration into existing or planned 4K-ready system infrastructure.
Horizontal, Vertical and Corner Keystone Correction
Manual keystone adjustment fits the image to the screen when projecting from an unusual angle. Curved Screen Correction removes barrel or pincushion distortion for natural projection onto curved surfaces.
Wireless option
Project wirelessly via PC using Presenter Light for Windows® or Panasonic Wireless Projector appfor iOS and Android™ devices by connecting the optional AJ-WM50 Wireless Module to the projector’s USB input.
Memory Viewer
You don't need to connect a computer to start presenting—just insert a USB memory stick containing your media and start projecting straight away.
