FULL HIGH-DEFINITION RESOLUTION – 1080p

The PLV-Z3000 unleashes the full 1920 x 1080 high-definition potential from today’s advanced full HD sources. This means rich, deep and accurate colors from SANYO’s exclusive TopazReal HD. TopazReal HD brings together a team of technologies including a variable iris and lamp reactivity, a 14-bit digital signal processing, real-focus HD lens system, and, most importantly, a 3D color management system that addresses changes in color phase and color level to obtain perfect color reproduction. PLV- Z3000 uses 120Hz super-fast Full HD panel, which can increase smoothness in videos due to doubled frame rate from 60 frames/second to

120frames/second using interpolation frame generation technology. The optimization of deep color from the color management system is supported via the projector’s two HDMI 1.3 inputs.

LENS MAXIMIZATION OF IMAGE DETAIL

Rated at 1200 lumens, the PLV-Z3000 is capable of an incredible

65,000 : 1 contrast ratio for superlative black levels, even in ambient light. Plus it has a newly-developed, high-efficiency lens that maximizes image details for exceptional optical performance.

ADVANCED LENS SHIFT FOR VARIOUS ROOM ENVIRONMENTS The PLV-Z3000 is outfitted with the industry’s most advanced lens shifting function. When coupled with the projector’s short throw capability and 2x zoom, the PLV-3000 can create a large screen image in any size room and from virtually any location. The lens shifting function allows wide- range shifting up or down to three screen sizes and left to right to two screen sizes. The throw design of the PLV-Z3000, which is capable of projecting a 100-inch diagonal image from 10 to 20 feet away, makes it extremely suitable for small to mid-size home theaters.

VIRTUALLY SILENT FAN DESIGN

A 1200 lumen projector generates a tremendous amount of heat and requires a high quality fan to ensure proper operation. At this level of brightness, the fan is ‘on’ most of the time and the noise can be extremely loud and disruptive, especially in smaller home theaters where the

PLV-Z3000 specifications

The Sanyo PLV-Z3000 is a high-performance home theater projector that has garnered attention for its impressive features, technologies, and overall picture quality. Although it may not be the latest model, it remains a popular choice among home cinema enthusiasts seeking top-tier projection capabilities.

One of the standout features of the PLV-Z3000 is its Full HD 1080p resolution, which ensures that users can enjoy vibrant, sharp images with incredible detail. This level of resolution is ideal for watching high-definition movies, sports, and video games, making it a versatile option for various viewing experiences.

The projector utilizes an advanced 3LCD technology, which enables it to produce brighter and more vivid colors compared to traditional DLP projectors. The 3LCD system works by using three separate panels for red, green, and blue light, leading to a more balanced color output and significantly reducing the risk of the color wheel artifacts that can sometimes plague DLP models.

Another notable technology featured in the PLV-Z3000 is its dynamic iris system, which automatically adjusts the aperture to enhance contrast and produce deeper blacks in darker scenes. This dynamic contrast enhancement allows for a better visual experience, particularly when watching movies with a wide range of brightness levels.

The Sanyo PLV-Z3000 is also equipped with various picture modes, including cinema, dynamic, and natural, providing users with the flexibility to choose the best settings for their viewing environment. This adaptability is particularly beneficial in diverse lighting conditions, allowing viewers to enjoy optimal image quality whether in a darkened theater room or a well-lit space.

Additionally, the projector boasts a built-in lens shift feature, which allows for easy installation by adjusting the image position without distorting the picture. This feature is especially handy for users with limited mounting options or those looking to project onto a screen that is not directly in line with the projector.

In terms of connectivity, the PLV-Z3000 includes HDMI inputs that support high-definition content, enabling users to connect a variety of media sources seamlessly. This ensures that the projector remains relevant in a world where streaming and high-fidelity video sources are increasingly popular.

Overall, the Sanyo PLV-Z3000 is a robust home theater projector with impressive features and technologies that cater to discerning viewers. Its combination of Full HD resolution, advanced 3LCD technology, dynamic contrast capabilities, and flexible installation options makes it a worthy investment for anyone looking to enhance their home entertainment experience.
