Precise colour reproduction thanks to Pure White Generator & Dynamic Contrast NX

With the Pure White Generator developed by Panasonic Connect, the PT-MZ11KLBE achieves rich colour reproduction at a high brightness of 11,000 lumens. It uses a multi-reflection system to minimise the loss of light source energy that is noticeable with conventional systems. This gives you an optimum colour balance without sacrificing brightness for realistic and accurate colour reproduction. The Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE's Dynamic Contrast NX technology (a further development of Dynamic Contrast) provides a new dimension in light and dark control: it uses a newly developed video scene analysis circuit to recognise differences in light and dark areas more precisely than before.

Up to 20,000 lm with an alternating current of 100-240 V 

The Panasonic PT-MZ20K series achieves a light output of up to 20,000 lumens with an AC input voltage of 100-240 V. Conventional projectors require an AC power supply of 200 to 240 V to project at 20,000 lumens. * However, the Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE can project your images from a standard power socket. This eliminates the need to install high-voltage power supplies and expands the range of situations in which you can use the 20,000 projector. 

_{*Measurements, measurement conditions and documentation methods comply with international standards under ISO/IEC 21118:2020. The value corresponds to the average of all products at the time of dispatch. (As of March 2023, based on LCD laser projectors with a brightness of at least 20,000 lm according to internal tests)}

Detail Clarity Processor 4 for improved dimensionality and sharpness

The Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE features the Detail Clarity Processor 4: Panasonic Connect's unique image quality correction circuit reproduces details more clearly and sharply. Video signal frequencies are analysed in each scene and the optimum sharpness is adjusted based on the information extracted from the signal. Compared to conventional image processing technology, this system reproduces images even more naturally and three-dimensionally.

Supports 4K signal input

The Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE also supports uncompressed 4K/60p input signals* via HDMI® or DIGITAL LINK. As no external devices such as converters are required, 4K signals can be processed smoothly. This eliminates the need for re-encoding when the projector is used with other 4K-compatible devices, making projection with 4K signals simple and efficient.

_{*Input signals are converted to the projector's screen resolution during playback. 4K/60p signals are supported via HDMI and DIGITAL LINK connections. 4K/60p and 4K/50p signals input via DIGITAL LINK are only supported in YPBPR 4:2:0 format.}

Multi-laser drive engine absorbs unforeseen circumstances

The Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE's Multi-Laser Drive Engine ensures stable projection even when problems with the light source occur. The projector is equipped with multiple modules consisting of many laser diodes, and in the unlikely event that one of the elements fails, Panasonic Connect's unique failover circuitry is activated so that projection can continue with virtually no loss of brightness. This allows the projector to be used with peace of mind in situations where a drop in brightness could affect important presentations such as large lectures and seminars.

Black level correction to adapt to the shape of the image

With conventional black level correction, only the width and angle of the black border are specified for correction, which makes edge blending on curved screens difficult. To solve this problem, the Panasonic PT-MZ20K series projectors are equipped with a function that allows the shape of the black edges to be adapted to the shape of the screen. With up to 17 points, flexible black level correction is also possible on curved image surfaces, which increases cohesion in multi-screen applications.

Geometric adjustment corrects keystone distortion and curved projections

With the Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE's integrated geometric adjustment function, various distortions on the screen can be corrected remotely. In addition to trapezoidal distortion, distorted projections on curved surfaces can also be corrected using Curved Screen Correction. With corner correction, the user can specify four screen corners, e.g. top right and bottom right, for correction. Image proportions can be retained and corrections can be saved as data.

Free grid enables precise correction of local distortions

In addition to the integrated geometric adjustment function, the free grid enables the precise correction of localised distortions within the image. Grids between 2 x 2 and 17 x 17 lines can be selected to enable point-by-point correction or batch correction by specifying vertical and horizontal lines. Correction data is retained even after changing the number of grids or dots, allowing a smooth transition from basic to detailed correction. This convenient function enables the adjustment of special projection surfaces, such as irregular or uneven wall surfaces, with the remote control.

Data cloning function now compatible with USB memory

The Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE projector supports data cloning, allowing you to copy settings and adjustment values from a main projector to sub-projectors via LAN1 or a USB storage device. This minimises the time and effort involved in setting up multiple projectors. Smart Projector Control App for smooth installation The Smart Projector Control App* allows you to control the Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE projector from a smartphone. By scanning the QR code displayed on the OSD menu screen or information monitor and connecting to wireless LAN, input signals and other functions can be switched from a mobile device. This requires the optional AJ-WM50 wireless module. In addition to the ability to control up to 64 devices simultaneously, it also supports lens adjustment, test pattern switching and focus adjustment with your device's camera from a distance of 30 metres (when projecting a 300-inch image, max. distance for a diagonal of 100 inches is 3 metres).

Long-term stability with unique liquid cooling system and dust-proof structure

To achieve high brightness and stable operation, Panasonic has utilised a liquid cooling system in the PT-MZ11KLBE projector that was originally developed for Panasonic DLP Projection Systems™. This efficient design circulates cooling liquid directly to the light source modules, preventing temperature increases associated with high brightness projection. Combined with a highly reliable original dustproof structure, the system enables stable performance even in hot, dusty environments.

Backup input function for increased reliability

The Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE's backup input function enables seamless projection even when the input signal is interrupted. When HDMI 1 is set as the primary input and HDMI 2 as the secondary input, the projector switches to HDMI 2 in just 0.3 seconds if the signal to HDMI 1 is interrupted. This improves reliability and ensures stable operation in environments where the video presentation must not be interrupted.

Information monitor for changing settings and checking status

The information monitor of the Panasonic PT-MZ11KLBE is located on the control panel of the projector main unit and displays information such as temperature, voltage, operating hours and input signals in real time. If an error occurs, the error number and related details are reported immediately. The status of the main unit can be easily checked and quick recovery from problems is made possible.
