Boosted Picture Quality with Up to 5,500 lm and 16,000:1 Contrast

WUXGA (1920 x 1200 pixel) resolution native to the PT-VZ585N/VZ580/VZ470 brings crisp Full HD to meeting spaces and classrooms for immersive viewing. With brightness of up to 5,500 lm*1 and a class-leading 16,000:1 contrast ratio*2, your audience is treated to vivid colors, inky blacks, pure highlights, and clearly legible text reproduction even in bright conditions.

*1 For PT-VW545N/VW540/VX615N/VX615. PT-VZ585N/VZ580 features 5,000 lm and PT-VZ470 features 4,400 lm of brightness. *2 Excluding PT-VZ470. PT-VZ470 features 10,000:1 contrast ratio.

6-Colors Adjustment and Color Correction Functions*

Correct slight color variations in the reproduction range of individual units set up for multi-projection. This is particularly useful for side-by-side configurations delivering ultra-wide-screen pictures. Very large images can be seamlessly presented in auditoriums and boardrooms.

* Excluding PT-VZ470.

Efficient Low-Maintenance Design

Less maintenance is not only good for your budget, but also the environment. Air filter replacement cycle is at a class-leading 7,000 hours, and the unit can be washed and reused twice *1 to minimize waste. Lamp life is also pushed out to 7,000 hours in ECO2 mode *2, meaning part refreshment can be performed together with filter maintenance to reduce downtime.

*1 Filter replacement cycle is calculated based on time when projector’s built-in sensor detects clogging and powers projector down. Please follow the procedures listed in the operating instructions when washing the filter with water. Replacement is recommended after filter has been washed and reused twice, or if filter is not sufficiently clean after washing. Filter replacement cycle is a guideline and may be reduced depending on environmental conditions. PT-VZ470’s filter cannot be washed with water. *2 Maximum value with Lamp Mode set to ECO2. 5,000 hours in Normal Mode and 6,000 hours in ECO1 Mode (7,000 hours in ECO Mode, 5,000 hours in Normal Mode for PT-VZ470). Lamp replacement cycle is a guideline and may be reduced depending on environmental conditions.

Daylight View Basic

Panasonic technology assures sharp and comfortably viewed images even with the blinds open by enhancing fine details (particularly in dark areas of the image) that are normally difficult to see in bright rooms. A built-in sensor measures ambient light while Daylight View Basic adjusts halftone color and brightness to suit ambient illumination*.

* With Daylight View Basic set to AUTO mode.

Quiet Operation

Technologies combine to keep noise levels down to just 29 dB*, so the sound of the cooling fan is less distracting. This helps to keep attention focused on the presentation and quiet video scenes.

* With Lamp Mode set to ECO2. 37 dB in Normal and 35 dB in ECO1 Mode. Operating noise for PT-VZ470 is 29 dB (ECO Mode) and 37 dB (Normal Mode).

Comprehensive Wireless Support

Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ Miracast

Supported on Windows ®

Full-screen Wireless Playback

Miracast supports stutter-free audio and Full HD video transmission from device to projector screen at 1:1.

Supports Multiple Display Modes

Easily control how content on your device is displayed on the big screen by selecting the appropriate mode.

Failsafe Transmission

To ensure confidential information isn’t mistakenly transmitted to another display, users can enter a PIN code before casting media via Miracast.

Performance Improvements

Compared to Miracast on legacy models, these current-generation projectors cut connection time by about a third, and increase connectivity ratio by almost a half.

Selectable Channels

Selectable 5 GHz/2.4 GHz channels are offered to provide a stable connection in rooms with network congestion or radio interference.

Moderator Mode and Cut-In Function

Three modes allow the meeting chair to choose which participants’ devices may display content or present content uninterrupted over Miracast. Interactive mode enables open chairing.

Apps Support Any Device

Panasonic offers free applications for smartphones, tablets, and personal computers enabling 3-step connection to get your media on the big screen swiftly and easily. Further, a new plug-and-share feature allows your to cast from PC without software or driver installation.

Plug and Share

Insert a USB memory device into the projector port. In less than a minute, configuration setting files and an application are copied. Plug the USB memory device into your PC, click the player icon, and transmit video and stills wirelessly to the projector—no software or network setup required.

Wireless Manager ME 6.4

Included Panasonic Wireless Manager software for Mac and Windows ®PC lets you cast media from the screen of your computer via wireless LAN with a host of display options right at your fingertips.

Wireless Projector

Dedicated apps for iOS and Android™ devices feature simple 3-step initial connection and support a variety of media and business document transmission. These apps also allow SSID and key information to be easily obtained via a QR Code that’s projected on a standby screen, again saving on setup time.

Supporting a full suite of features and eliminating the need for software installation, the Easy Wireless Stick dongle lets you plug and project from PC. After one-time initial setup, projection is automatic, and the device will display images from up to 16 computers at once, and is compatible with Windows ® 10.

* Availability of the ET-UW100 Easy Wireless Stick varies depending on country.

* Requires a firmware update.

Multi-Projector Mode*

Applications for PC, iOS, Android, and the optional Easy Wireless Stick dongle support Multi-Projector Mode. This function enables media display from up to 16 different devices in split-screen configuration. You can also transmit content from one PC to up to eight projectors or displays.

* The number of windows that can be projected simultaneously varies depending on application used. Please refer to operating instructions for the application.

DIGITAL LINK Connection

DIGITAL LINK transmits uncompressed video, audio *1, and control commands through a single CAT 5e or higher STP cable for distances of up to 150 m (492 ft) *2. Optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher or Digital Interface Box further simplifies installation, reduces cabling and associated costs, and enhances reliability.

*1 Audio transmission depending on model’s audio capability.
*2 150 m (492 ft) transmission available only with ET-YFB200G DIGITAL LINK Switcher for signals up to 1080p.

Memory Viewer

You don’t need a computer to start presenting—just insert a USB memory device containing media and start projecting straight away. This includes Full HD video as well as still images. A simple Graphical User Interface (GUI) assures a smooth and stress-free presentation.

Supports IEEE802.1X Protocol

Only authenticated users can connect to the IEEE802.1X network (EAP* over LAN), preventing access by unauthorized users. Compatible projectors support IEEE802.1X protocol over wired or wireless LAN.

* EAP: Extensible Authentication Protocol.

Free and Flexible Installation

1.6x Zoom Lens and Lens Shift Function

Zoom lens allows you to project from wide range of distances from tabletops or ceiling. Use vertical lens shift to quickly adjust image position without distortion.

* 40 % for PT-VX615N/VX610.
Note: Diagram for PT-VZ585N/VZ580 shown.

Quick Lamp and Filter Replacement

For convenience, the filter can be replaced via the side and the lamp from the top of the projector. There’s no need to remove the unit from its ceiling mount for periodic maintenance.

Auto Screen Image Rotation

Images are automatically* rotated depending on installation orientation—upside down on the ceiling or set on a table—using a built-in angle sensor.

* Manual setting also available via setup menu.

Easy Geometric Adjustment Function

Horizontal, vertical, and corner keystone correction adjusts the image shape for clear visibility when projecting off-axis or from an unusual angle. Curved Screen Correction allows for the projection of natural, distortion-free images onto curved or cylindrical surfaces.
