Overview

LCD Home Theater Projector
The Sanyo PLV-Z60 projector is representing another step forward in price performance for 1280x720 resolution widescreen LCD technology. The brighter, 1200-lumens PLX-Z60 is equipped with three 16:9 native, 1,280 x 720 pixel (2.76 million effective pixels) HD LCD panels that produce a phenomenal picture quality and beautifully saturated colors even in well-lit rooms. PLV-Z60 delivers amazing 10000:1 contrast ratio which makes it a unique machine.

EXTENSIVE INPUT CONNECTIONS 2 X HDMI
A full complement of input terminals, which include a digital HDMI interface and two sets of component video inputs, together with composite video and S-video connections, provide extensive flexibility. The user can even connect their PC to the projector via the D-sub 15 input.

12-BIT DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING
Using the 12-Bit Digital Processing IC, the PLV-Z60 projector achieves a high image quality with video decoder, scaler and gamma curve generator. The result is the reproduction of deeper, richer images. And thanks to greatly improve calculating precision, the Sanyo PLV-Z60 renders even tiny nuances in expressive details.

INNOVATIVE 3D COLOR MANAGEMENT
You can adjust and save the hue, gamma curve, and level of any color. Finetuning the image settings enables compensation for specific conditions in every viewing environment.

SAVVY INSTALLATION WITH 2X ZOOM & LENS SHIFT
With its 2X optical zoom, the Sanyo PLV-Z60 projector can project images onto a 100-inch screen from a mere distance of 9.8ft to 20ft. A pair of side panel controls adjust the lens vertically and horizontally to project a geometrically accurate and undistorted picture.

NEAR-SILENT FAN DESIGN – ONLY 22dBA
The redesigned internal cooling structure minimizes fan noise, achieving super quiet performance.

MOTOR-OPERATED SLIDING SHUTTER
The shutter can be opened or closed automatically by remote control, protecting the lens from dust.

ADVANCED IMAGE MODE
The Advanced Mode provides a range of adjustments to take care of your every video whim. Adjustments include RGB gain, RGB gamma, RGB offset adjustment, lens iris adjustment, outlines compensation, black level expansion, and contrast enhancement.
