Panasonic’s patented Smooth Screen
technology takes the projector image to a
higher, film-like level. When an LCD projector shows
images on a large screen, black lines can appear
between the pixels. This phenomenon—called the
chicken wire effect—is minimised in the PT-AE300 by
Panasonic-developed Smooth Screen technology. This
reduces the gaps between pixels inherent with
conventional projectors to give images a smooth
texture, so they become closer to those you enjoy at
the movie theatre.
The stillness of the musicians, the darkness of
the unlit stage before the final crescendo, images
from concerts to sports events are sharper and more
detailed with deeper blacks than ever, thanks to the high
contrast ratio of 800:1 and the superb brightness of 800
ANSI lumens. And they are faithfully reproduced by the
high-resolution 960 x 540-pixel wide LCD panels. It is also
equipped with a high-quality de-interlacer that
differentiates between the moving and still parts of images
with high precision to realize a crystal clear image. The PT-
AE300 brings you whiter whites, blacker blacks, and more
vivid natural images for your ultimate viewing pleasure.
You can choose exactly how you wish the PT-
AE300 to present your images. Fine tuning of
projected images is possible through 294 picture quality
settings, black/white level gamma correction, or colour
temperature fine adjustment. The image can be
positioned anywhere using vertical/horizontal keystone
correction. Various connections are available, now
including a SCART socket plus an SD memory card slot.
The PT-AE300 is also equipped with a digital video
interface (DVI), which accepts digital signals directly for
clearer images.
PT-AE300E: Smoothly textured images, as in a
movie theatre Conventional: “Chicken wire” effect
More than just powerful, the PT-AE300 presents
you with all the sensitivity of movie scenes and
the emotions associated with concerts. It is
packed with technologies aimed at
achieving the quality of film. Panasonic-
developed Smooth Screen technology
produces smooth film-like picture quality
that will remind you of your last cinema
experience. From the flash of summer
sun on colourful clothing to the dazzling
lights of a concert performance, all will
appear as vividly striking images
delivered by the superb brightness of 800
ANSI lumen and high contrast ratio of
800:1. You can even customize the colours
to your exact desire with 294 mode settings.
Film-like quality—it is what the PT-AE300
was bred to realize.
