With 5000 lumens and a 3000:1 contrast ratio, the Panasonic PT-VX500 XGA LCD Projector possesses the image power to project vivid, saturated pictures in a variety of lighting situations.

Panasonic's Daylight View Basic technology achieves sharp, easy-to-see images by clearly reproducing the details in dark image areas, which were previously difficult to see in brightly lit rooms. A built-in sensor measures the ambient light, and the Daylight View Basic function adjusts the halftone color and brightness level according to the surrounding illumination.

With the inclusion of a RJ-45 port, the PT-VX500 allows for a number of networked features. A Web browser on a computer connected through a LAN system lets you remotely operate projectors and check their status. An e-mail messaging function can also notify you when a lamp needs replacement, and indicate the overall projector status.

In addition, multi projector monitoring and control software is available for monitoring and controlling multiple Panasonic projectors from a single PC. The wired LAN terminal is compatible with PJLink (Class 1), an open protocol that is used by many manufacturers, to enable integrated control of systems that contain different brands of projectors.

The LAN terminal also allows a computer connected to the network to use Crestron RoomView application software to manage and control system devices.

It is no secret that the Panasonic PT-VX500 is brighter and better than ever with a compilation of numerous Panasonic proprietary technologies.

              We are using three of these projectors in our sanctuary at our church for our multimedia projector system, and are very happy with how they work. Great brightness in lumens, lightweight and small in size, and work beautifully. Even though they were a little bit expensive for our budget, they work perfectly.

                            I purchased this projector for use in our church sanctuary. I am very pleased with the lumens and quality of pic. Compared to other Projectors this one is first class for the money I am not ashamed when we have visitors from other churches come.

                            We are using three of these projectors in our sanctuary at our church for our multimedia projector system, and are very happy with how they work. Great brightness in lumens, lightweight and small in size, and work beautifully. Even though they were a little bit expensive for our budget, they work perfectly.
