Videoproiector Panasonic PT-REQ12WEJ

With a 25,000:1 contrast ratio, Evolved Dynamic Contrast uses new scene-analysis circuitry to precisely detect light and dark areas, making blacks deeper and highlights more vivid. Rich Color Enhancer adds a 2-mode color optimization layer: Dynamic Mode balances brightness and color for bright-environment visibility, while Standard Mode expands red-channel output for vibrant, accurate color reproduction — essential for artwork and color-rich content. Gradation Smoother further eliminates banding in shaded gradients, with three correction levels selectable via remote, offering a real-time fix when there's no time to re-edit source material.

The REQ15 Series plays 2K/240 Hz video with an input-to-output latency of just 6 ms, reproducing fast-moving objects and action sequences with minimal blur. High-speed content can be edge-blended across multiple screens, making these projectors ideal for eSports events and any application where fluid motion matters. The series also supports Panasonic's optional ET-SWR103 Real-Time Tracking Projection-Mapping SDK, which works with infrared cameras to project imagery onto fast-moving objects at 2K/240 Hz — seamlessly merging digital and analog worlds for interactive XR attractions.

The REQ15 Series optical engine and laser light-source module conform to the IP5X Dust Protected (IEC 60529) standard, eliminating the need for a filter and enabling 20,000 hours of maintenance-free projection. A high-efficiency liquid cooling system supports both long operational life and low noise output — as little as 32 dB in Quiet Mode. Failover Circuitry across multiple laser modules ensures that if a single diode fails, power continues to the remaining diodes, minimizing brightness loss and protecting image continuity during critical events.

The REQ15 Series delivers full brightness up to 15,000 lm on AC 100–240 V power, removing the need to rewire venues for high-voltage circuits. This saves significant time, cost, and installation resources, especially in multi-projector setups where electrical infrastructure complexity can quickly escalate. The compact, lightweight body also means two people can carry and install each unit, smoothing logistics across large-scale multi-projection deployments.

The REQ15 Series is compatible with a new range of optional motor-driven fixed, zoom, and ultra-short-throw zoom lenses, with throw ratios starting from 0.308:1. These C1 Series lenses improve native contrast, minimize flare and color blur, and offer a wider lens shift range than previous generations. Lens Memory and Auto Lens Identification are built in, and powered periphery focus adjustment is now supported via remote control or the Smart Projector Control app — a first for Panasonic projection and a significant time-saver during complex installs.

The REQ15 Series includes built-in geometric adjustment tools with a point-based Free Grid function for correcting localized screen distortion. Preactivated licenses are included for the ET-UK20 Geometry Manager Pro Software Upgrade Kit — adding line, shape, and bitmap masking — and the ET-CUK10 Auto Screen Adjustment Upgrade Kit, which automates edge-blending calibration via camera. Black-level uniformity in blended areas on curved screens is managed with up to 17 control points, allowing precise adjustment within a half-pixel margin. A built-in gyro sensor displays pitch and roll angles in the OSD, enabling single-operator projection angle alignment.

Smart Projector Control app lets one operator manage up to 64 projectors from a phone or tablet. The NFC function allows projector configuration — including Projector ID and IP address — before AC power is available on site, accelerating setup the moment power comes online. Remote Preview LITE lets projectionists verify connectivity and assess image adjustments via thumbnail preview on a laptop, even with the shutter closed or the projector in Standby Pre-Show Mode — minimizing errors before live performances. Backup Input switching (HDMI 1 to HDMI 2) occurs in as little as 0.3 seconds without screen blanking, ensuring uninterrupted display during critical events.
