The PT-RZ670 and PT-RW630 are additions to the company's existing Solid Shine line of projectors, and feature 20,000 hours of working life without lamp replacement and flexible, all angle, installation.
Hartmut Kulessa, marketing manager for Panasonic said, "The RZ670 series brings an unparalleled ease of installation for exhibition and museum applications. At the same time, critical applications such as control rooms and signage will benefit from the build quality and absolute reliability of the projector."
The PT-RZ670 and PT-RW630 both boast 6,500 lumens brightness and are WUXGA and WXGA respectively. Powered by a laser light source, there is no requirement for replacement lamps or filters, and the laser light source has a working life of around 20,000 hours* or more, depending on usage.
Easy installation allows landscape and portrait mounting as well as vertical/horizontal/tilting 360 degrees projection without any effect on the life of the light source, which is not possible with a traditional lamp source projector.
In addition, the PT-RZ670 model has built in geometric adjustment, enabling projections onto curved and irregular shaped screens, making it ideal for museums, exhibitions and show rooms - where creativity makes a difference.
"The second generation of Solid Shine projectors has raised the bar of projection reliability and flexibility," added Hartmut Kulessa. "The laser projector reproduces 150% brighter colours and up to 230% brighter in yellow than a conventional 7000 lumens projector, so users will enjoy peace of mind, as well as excellent picture quality over an extended period of time."
The projectors are also compatible with Digital Link, that allows transmission of digital signals (HDMI, uncompressed HD video, and control signals) up to 100 m (328 ft) with a single LAN cable.
