Sanyo PLV-Z3000 3LCD Home Theater Video Projector

Sanyo PLV-Z3000 MSRP: $3,295

Overview

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. PLVZ3000 uses 120Hz super-fast Full HD panel, which can increase smoothness in videos due to doubled frame rate from 60 frames/second to 120 frames/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 widerange
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 projector and the audience are in the same vicinity. To promote greater enjoyment of the film and to reduce noise levels during quiet passages of a film, the PLV-Z3000 is equipped with the industry’s quietest fan, a large aperture, low noise Sirocco cooling fan that never rises above 19dB in the economy mode.
