The Panasonic PT-WV430U Projector provides mobility, 4,300 lumens of brightness in a compact form-factor and can be moved from one room to another or installed from a ceiling. Equipped with a lamp and pleated micro cut filters that have 4,000-hour replacement cycles, labor and expense typically attributed to periodic maintenance is greatly reduced. With a 1.6x zoom lens and auto keystone feature, installation, setup and operation is easy. The PT-VW430U also has lens shift functionality in the vertical direction making it easy to move the image position vertically without distorting it. This lightweight projector is portable and eco-friendly with a low 0.48W standby power consumption rating. The PT-VW430U projector also includes a wide array of features including a 10-watt speaker and microphone input for audio playback directly from the projector, a built-in closed caption decoder and a carrying bag with a handy shoulder strap. Users can expect superb performance, quiet operation and with intelligent lamp control, minimal environmental impact. The LAN terminal allows a computer connected to the network to use Crestron RoomView application software to manage and control system devices. Dependable, portable and high brightness projectors, the PT-VW430U is ideal for use in corporate conference rooms, training rooms, classrooms and more.

Bright Picture
Capable of putting out 4,300 lumens, the PT-VW430U creates easy-to-see images even in a brightly-lit room. The model also incorporates a variable iris that produces a high contrast of 3,500:1. This all results in a brighter, sharper projection for versatile situations.
Long-Lasting Lamp and Air Filter
With a lamp replacement and air filter cycle of 4,000 hours, the projector reduces maintenance hassles for long period of use and helps to lower maintenance costs and reduce environmental impact.
10-Watt Speaker Power and a Microphone Input
The VW430U features high-output 10-watt speakers that create a robust sound volume without requiring external speakers. The model incorporates a microphone input that helps the presenter deliver a more effective presentation.
Real-Time Keystone Correction
With Real-Time Keystone Correction, the projector automatically senses if you adjust its angle (in the vertical direction) during operation and instantly makes whatever keystone correction is necessary for optimal viewing.

      Comments about Panasonic Wxga Lcd 4000 Lumens Projector:

      I am an AV Guy by trade, and I bought this for my personal and side business use.

      I have come across many of the common portable projectors for small / medium size use, and this one holds up fairly well. I have shown Powerpoints, Movies, and the Superbowl on this projector so far, with pretty good result.
      However, The following are my Cons:
      Black Level display: I could notice poor display of dark areas of a dynamically lit image, but on certain projector setting tweaks on gamma and iris I could see improved result.

      no Horizontal Lens shift: this unit only has vertical lens shift, which is nice, but leaves me lacking. Using this for a conference powerpoint setup, horizontal lens shift would've really helped me put the projector in an open space away from the seating.

      Conclusion: the very competitive price, brightness, definition and flexibility makes this projector quite competitive and a bargain deal. But be aware that you cant always get what you want, with the price you hope for.

        We recently improved our Church's Sound and Video Booth capabilities. It was recommended that I use the Panasonic PT-WV430U LCD Projector for the rear wall projection (where the platform people use this display as a cue card). It has exceeded what I hoped for in cost, size, instillation, quality of picture, and ease of operation. This unit has the capability of selecting what type of screen/wall it is to be projected on... I did not have to purchase a 6' X 9' screen because the wall display worked well. Our Worship Team have a real appreciation of quality video display. I will replace the front projector with the same unit when the time comes.

              I bought 3 of these projectors to use in conjunction with a TripleHead2Go and the Edge Blending module in ProPresenter 5. I was on a pretty tight budget of around $. In the past I have bought really cheap, $ Eiki projectors that literally did not last 6 months. So, I really wanted to get some projectors that would hopefully last longer. So far I've only had them for a week, but they seem to be much better quality (which I expected from Panasonic).Right away the brightness stood out compared to the 2500 ANSI Lumen projectors we have on our main screens. The only negative about the picture is that each projector looks different (which is not very good when you're trying to blend 3 pictures together). However, I expected this. The only way to get around that problem is to buy better projectors. Nonetheless, it works well enough.On initial testing, I loved the automatic keystone feature. However, it seems to not work if you hanging it from the ceiling (which I would think would be the way most projectors are hung). The zooming capabilities are quite nice. Since the native resolution is 16:10, it can cover a 10ft. wide span from 10ft. away.Overall, I am quite happy with this projector.
