Bright, Vivid Images that Deliver all the Emotion and Excitement Only a projector that offers superior brightness and contrast can give you vivid, faithful reproduction of images that have both light and dark areas. The PT-DW7000E series combines outstanding 6,000-lumen brightness with 4,000:1 contrast.
Featuring Texas Instruments Digital Light ProcessingT (DLPT) technology and unique 16:9 wide-aspect panels (1,366 x 768), this 3-chip DLPT projector truly excels in the projection of movie sources. The PT-DW7000E series also adds features such as Dynamic Iris, which improves contrast by matching the lamp output to the input signal.
The liquid-cooled optical engine boosts both reliability and durability while greatly reducing operating noise. The PT-DW7000E series is suitable for a wide variety of applications including:
- Boardrooms
- Conference rooms
- Post-production
- Broadcasting
- Premium home theatres
Features & Benefits
Native 16:9 Panels
The PT-DW7000 is the world's first 3-chip DLP installation projector with 16:9 wide aspect panels. Wide screen images can be projected without sacrificing the superior image quality provided by the DLP technology.
Powerful 6,000 Lumens
In addition to the 300-watt UHM lamp, the PT-DW7000E series incorporates digital and optical technologies that maximise the DLP technology advantages. They deliver 6,000 Lumens of brightness, offering superior colour reproduction. |

Astounding 4000:1 Contrast Ratio with Dynamic Iris
Dynamic Iris constantly monitors the input signal, and adjusts the intesity of the light source to match it. This highly advanced function provides high-speed, linear response to changing images with 256-step precision.
Liquid-Cooling System
Panasonic's newly developed liquid-cooling system extends projector performance and attains a high level of reliability. |
3-Chip DLP™-Based System
in a Sleek, Compact Body
The World’s Lightest 3-Chip Large-Venue
DLP™-Based Projector
The PT-DW7000E series combines the latest
3-chip system based on DLP™ technology with
a new optical system developed using our
exclusive technology. We have dramatically
reduced the cabinet size, creating a unit wit
only one-fifth the volume of conventional
large-venue 3-chip DLP™-based projectors.
This feat of design and technology achieved
the world’s lightest* WXGA 3-chip projector
with DLP™ technology. With a weight of 48.5
pounds (22.0 kg), the PT-DW7000E/E-K can
go places other bulky 3-chip projectors with
DLP™ technology have never gone before.
Image Quality from 3-Chip DLP™
Technology
DLP™ technology delivers outstanding image
resolution. In 3-chip systems with DLP™ technology—
considered among the world’s most
advanced projector engines—a Digital
Micromirror Device (DMD) chip is allocated to
each of the red, green, and blue signals. This
gives systems with DLP™ technology superior
light utilisation for high brightness, digital processing
for low noise and linear white balance,
extended device life for minimal image
degradation, and a quick response that eliminates
afterimages.
Powerful 6,000 Lumens
In addition to the 300-watt UHM™ lamp, the
PT-DW7000E series incorporates digital and
optical technologies that maximise the DLP™
technology advantages. They deliver 6,000
Lumens of brightness, offering superior colour
reproducibility.
Astounding 4,000:1 Contrast Ratio with Dynamic Iris
Panasonic’s original Dynamic Iris achieves
a dramatically improved contrast ratio of
4,000:1 in the PT-DW7000E series. Dynamic
Iris constantly monitors the input signal, and
adjusts the intensity of the light source to
match it. This highly advanced function
provides high-speed, linear response to
changing images with 256-step precision.
It also combines with dynamic gamma
control to produce deep, rich blacks while
preserving the brightness in the lighter portions
of dark scenes.
16-Bit Colour Depth for
Film-Like Natural Image
Applying 16-bit drive to each of the RGB panels
produces 8 times the level of expression
(a total of 24 times for all three RGB panels)
of conventional 13-bit drive devices. This system
creates extremely smooth tonal expression
with approx. 65,000 shades of gradation.
Progressive Cinema Scan (3/2 Pulldown)
This interlace/progressive conversion technology
automatically detects when the input signal
is derived from filmed material and selects the
optimum progressive processing method to
assure faithful reproduction of the original
image. It is also compatible with the high-definition
1080i format.
Dynamic Sharpness Control
The Dynamic Sharpness Control circuit adjusts
the video signal waveforms based on the difference
in the brightness of adjacent pixels
for a sharp, clear picture that is relatively
unaffected by signal noise.
Liquid-Cooling System
In systems with DLP™ technology, the microscopic
mirrors of the DMD chip turn the light
on and off. During the off period, light is
directed away from the lens. Handling the
heat from this light is a major point in maintaining
the long-term performance of projectors with DLP™
technology.
Panasonic’s newly
developed liquidcooling
system
extends projector
performance and
attains a high level
of reliability.
Dustproof Design with Sealed Optical Block
We have minimised the effect of dust by completely
sealing the optical block. This dust-free
design helps ensure that 3-chip projectors
with DLP™ technology will continue to deliver
crisp, sharp, high-resolution images over an
extended service life.
Dual Lamp System and Lamp Relay Function
The use of two lamp systems increases
brightness and eliminates the need to interrupt
a presentation if a lamp burns out (in
dual lamp operation mode). In single lamp
operation mode, the lamp relay function greatly
extends continuous operating time.
Optional Long-Life Lamp
A long-life lamp that stretches lamp life to
4,000 hours is available as an option. In single
lamp operation mode, the lamp lamp relay
function allows non-stop operation 24 hours a
day for up to 47 weeks without replacing the lamps. The use of UHM™ lamps dramatically cuts operating costs.
Easy Lamp Replacement
The PT-DW7000E series is designed to allow
easy lamp replacement with the projector in
its fully mounted condition. The lamp itself is
the only part that needs to be replaced, which
further increases overall reliability.
Dust Filter Cleaning
The dust filter is easy to clean, and you don’t
have to make any changes in the projector’s
mounting condition. This helps to minimise
user down time.
Horizontal/Vertical Lens Shift
The PT-DW7000E series is equipped with a
motor-driven lens shifting function that
moves the lens left, right, up, and down. It
gives you easy, accurate adjustment when
installing the projector.
Optical Lenses for Various Venues
A wide range of optional lenses with different
throw distances are available in addition to
the supplied lens. Optional lenses with superlong
focal lengths of 8.0 to 15.0 are ideal for
use in churches or screening rooms. These
powered zoom/focus lenses enable the projectors
to perform superbly in an array of projection
environments, from classrooms to conference
rooms. It’s a snap to replace the “clickin”
type lenses used in the bayonet system of the PT-DW7000E series.
Quiet Operation
The PT-DW7000E series is designed for quiet
operation. A newly developed liquid-cooled
optical system and noise-suppression duct
and control system help minimise operating
noise. The fan rotation can now be adjusted in
finer steps, so fan noise is reduced when
rotation adjusts to match room temperature
changes. This helps minimise sudden increases
in fan noise during operation.
Built-In Multi-Screen Processor, Colour
Matching and Edge Blending
MULTI-SCREEN PROCESSOR
The PT-DW7000E/E-K can project large,
multi-screen images without any additional
equipment. Up to 100 units (10 x 10) can be
edge-blended at a time.
COLOUR MATCHING
When several units are used together, this
function corrects for slight variations in the
colour reproduction range of individual projectors.
The PC software assures easy, accurate
control. Independent, 7-axis adjustment (red,
green, blue, yellow, magenta, cyan, white)
ensures high precision and minimises colour
variations. To simplify the set-up process, you
can adjust the projectors before delivering
them to the presentation site. The colourmatching
function accommodates up to nine
units, for multi-screen or single screen presentation.
EDGE BLENDING
This function controls the brightness at overlapping
image edges to assure uniform, natural-
looking, multi-screen images. When projecting
HD sources with a single projector, part of the DMD is unused. In multi-screen projections
with two projectors, the DMDs increase
the image’s horizontal resolution while maximising
vertical resolution. |
