Features & Specifications for Model Number PTAE1000U Proview Digital is your source for the Panasonic PT-AE1000U projectors. The Panasonic PT-AE1000U 1080p LCD projectors are full-HD compatible home cinema projectors featuring 1080p LCD projector panels. Extensive research and development was conducted on the optical system, image processing engine, and other major components to bring high-resolution, full-HD images into the home for full and easy enjoyment. The development team collaborated with leading Hollywood colorists to further increase imaging precision through the "Hollywood tuning" process. The result is a full high definition home theater projector that packs comprehensive Panasonic technologies into a compact, stylish cabinet. The AE1000U 1080p projector offers a host of image optimizing features including a Dynamic Iris optical system. The Dynamic Iris helps provide the deeper, richer blacks you need for true-to-life images. This system works by analyzing histograms to determine the brightness level of each image, then adjusting the lamp power, iris and gamma curve accordingly to create the ideal image. With Cinema Color Management technology in Panasonic projectors, correction of individual colors becomes possible without affecting the colors in the surrounding parts of the picture. For quick and easy adjustment of zoom and focus, two test patterns are built-in The PT-AE1000U gives home consumers a 16:9 projector with the kind of waveform monitor used in equipment for professionals. This function displays waveforms to show how the Panasonic projector has adjusted the images of the input signals sent from the source device. The remote control can memorize the functions of up to eight home theater components (both Panasonic products and products from other manufacturers) so you can control an entire home theater system with a single remote.
