Videoproiector Panasonic PT-RZ17KEJ

Quad Pixel Drive is Panasonic's original 2-axis pixel-quadrupling technology, shifting each pixel both vertically and horizontally at high speed to deliver a maximum resolution of 3840 x 2400 pixels (16:10) on the PT-RQ25K and PT-RQ18K models. Combined with high DMD pixel density and a narrow aperture ratio, the result is smooth, detail-rich 4K imagery with immersive depth and exceptional definition. Whether projecting intricate graphics, fine text, or cinematic content, Quad Pixel Drive ensures every detail is rendered with precision — making it the ideal choice for audiences who demand the sharpest possible image at any throw distance.

Panasonic's Dynamic Contrast technology has reached a new peak of 25,000:1 (Full On/Full Off, Dynamic Contrast set to [3], per ISO/IEC 21118:2020). Beyond the impressive ratio itself, this generation introduces advanced image-scene analysis that recognises light and dark areas with greater precision than before. The projector analyses content frame-by-frame and digitally adjusts light output to match the contrast requirements of each individual scene in real time. The result is a picture that feels alive — deep blacks, luminous highlights, and natural mid-tones that adapt continuously to whatever is being projected, whether a dramatic live event, a corporate presentation, or an immersive installation.

The PT-RQ25K Series is equipped with multiple laser modules, each protected by Panasonic's unique Failover Circuitry. In the unlikely event that a single laser diode fails, the circuitry immediately reroutes power to the remaining functional diodes within that module, keeping brightness loss to an absolute minimum. Without Failover Circuitry, a single diode failure can cause every diode in the module to shut down, producing a sudden and dramatic drop in output. The Multi Laser Drive Engine gives operators confidence in mission-critical deployments — live events, broadcast studios, houses of worship, simulation centres — where any interruption to the projected image is simply not an option.

Remote Preview LITE allows projectionists to confirm video-signal integrity by viewing thumbnails of the input signal on a laptop — before a single frame is projected on screen. Accessible via dedicated software or a standard web browser, it functions even when the projector is in Standby mode or when the shutter is closed. This is particularly valuable at concerts, corporate galas, and other events where checking content live on screen is impractical due to stage traffic, soundchecks, ambient sunlight, or tight scheduling. By catching signal issues before showtime, Remote Preview LITE reduces the risk of on-stage errors and helps technicians quickly identify whether a problem originates at the signal source. Requires Multi-Monitoring & Control Software Version 3.2 or later (available free from Panasonic).

An Intel® SDM-ready expansion slot allows operators to integrate optional proprietary or third-party function boards directly into the projector, reducing cable clutter and installation complexity in one move. Compatible boards include Panasonic's own DIGITAL LINK Terminal Board (TY-SB01DL), 12G-SDI Terminal Board (TY-SB01QS), and Wireless Presentation System PressIT Receiver Board (TY-SB01WP), as well as selected third-party PC boards, terminal boards, and AVoIP boards. This modular approach makes it straightforward to adapt the projector's connectivity for different venues and applications — now and in the future — without replacing the entire unit. Third-party Intel® SDM-specified function boards are sold separately; compatibility with PT-RQ25K Series should be verified against the published list.
