The PT-AX100U lets you see the biggest stars in larger-than-life size, right in your living room, anytime you want. Fill a big screen (up to 200" diagonal) with Panasonic's remarkably clear, vivid, high-definition images, and you'll discover things you'd never see on a small screen. Until you meet your favorite stars in real life, Panasonic PT-AX100U will get you closer to them than you've ever imagined.

Intelligent Light Harmonizer
Images are crisp, vivid and easy to see even in bright light
Pure Color Filter
The Pure Color Filter allows optical technology to deliver true "Hollywood" picture quality; The lamp is adjusted to produce a level of light that maximizes the performance of the LCD panels, which expands the color range and produces truer blacks
Smooth Screen Technology
Smooth Screen technology, effectively reduces the "chicken wire effect" the black lines between pixels that mar picture quality
Dynamic Sharpness Control
Dynamic Sharpness Control sharpens only the pixels in the image areas where there is a small change in brightness level; This greatly reduces noise amplification and delivers clear, natural-looking images
Cinema Color Management (CCM)
CCM makes it possible to reproduce images that closely match the colorist's intention; Before CCM was developed, correcting one color affected certain others; This technology now allows individual correction of approximately 1,070,000,000 colors and it also controls both contrast and brightness

      AVOID-serious reliability problem

      By Hiro

      from CA

      Comments about Panasonic PT-AX100U WXGA Projector:

      Although this projector makes bright and beautiful images, it has serious reliability problem. I have found many people reported the reliability issue on the Internet.

      Expertise: EE

      Problems Encountered: Iris of this projector broke after 11 months of use. Broken iris causes projector shut-off in few minutes. After repair at Panasonic authorised factory, new iris broke again after 8 months of use. Panasonic warranty expired when the same problem occurred second time. I have not decided if I send this for repair again.
