Even with its light, compact body, the PT-EZ570 Series produces brightness of up to 6,000 lm.* In addition, the iris automatically adjusts itself to match the situation, resulting in high contrast ratio of up to 5,000:1.**
* The PT-EX600 has 6,000 lm, PT-EW630 5,500 lm, PT-EZ570/EX500 5,000 lm, and PT-EW530 has 4,500 lm of brightness.
** For the PT-EZ570/EW630/EX600. The PT-EW530 and PT-EX500 has 2,000:1 contrast ratio.
In response to the increasing popularity of widescreen image viewing, including Blu-ray content, the PT-EZ570 features native WUXGA resolution for full-HD viewing. This brings you lifelike projection of intricate, highly detailed images.
Panasonic&s Daylight View Basic technology achieves sharp, easy-to-see images by clearly reproducing the details in dark image areas, which were previously difficult to see in brightly lit rooms. A built-in sensor measures the ambient light, and the Daylight View Basic function adjusts the halftone color and brightness level according to the surrounding illumination.
The cabinet is designed with a straight airflow path, from intake to exhaust. The shielding of the lens section, where dust is likely to enter, has been further improved to keep dust out. And the sealing performance of the air filter unit and air intake duct has been increased to prevent the entry of dust from the filter periphery, resulting in a highly dust-resistant structure.
The Eco Filter unit, which efficiently captures dust in the intake airflow path, requires no replacement for up to12,000 hours.* This large, pleated Micro Cut Filter (electrostatic filter) uses an ion effect to trap minute dust particles, further raising the overall dust-trapping capability. These features minimize the entry of dust into the optical block and maintain brightness over a long period of time, while reducing the hassle of maintenance. Also, in addition to achieving a long replacement cycle, the Eco Filter can be washed with water** and reused as an environmental consideration.
* The usage environment affects the duration of the filter.
** When washing with water, please follow the procedures listed in the operating instructions. Also, we recommend replacing the filter with a new one after it has been washed and reused twice. If the filter is not sufficiently clean after washing, replace it with a new one.
The PT-EZ570 Series projectors& optical block maintains a high level of performance over time, due to the use of inorganic materials in the LCD panels and polarizers, thus achieving a replacement cycle of 10,000 hours. It also makes them the logical choice for a truly dependable LCD projector system.
The PT-EZ570 Series projectors feature a lamp replacement cycle of up to 4,000 hours.* This helps to lower operating costs by providing longer usage between lamp replacements.
* This is the maximum value when the lamp power is set to Eco1 or Eco2, with the lamp turned on for 2 hours and off for 0.25 hours. Increases in the lamp on cycle or extended use with the lamp continuously turned on will shorten the lamp replacement cycle. When the lamp power is set to Normal, the lamp replacement cycle is 3,000 hours. The usage environment affects the lamp replacement cycle.
When the Standby mode is set to Eco, the standby power consumption is low at 0.4 W.* This lowers running costs, and helps to reduce environment impact.
* Standby mode: Eco. When Standby mode is set to Eco, network functions such as standby on via LAN are not available. Also, only certain commands can be received for external control using the serial terminal.
When the lamp power is set to Auto, the Intelligent Lamp Control system automatically adjusts the lamp output in accordance with the brightness of the projected image and reduces it by up to 70 %.* It also combines with color shift correction, which corrects the shift in the color balance that occurs when the lamp output drops. As a result, power consumption is effectively reduced while excellent color reproduction is maintained.
* With the lamp mode set to Auto.
A number of functions are provided to reduce power consumption. They adjust the brightness according to ambient light conditions, and reduce the lamp power when there is no signal input or the projector is in AV Mute mode*. You can easily set the Eco Management functions according to operating conditions by using the ECO button on the remote control.
* AV Mute: PT-EW530/EX500 only.

The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal/vertical lens shift function assures convenience and versatility during installation. It lets you easily make adjustments with the remote control. The unit can also be rotated 360 degrees vertically. This means you can install it at any angle you want, to accommodate different installation conditions.
NOTE: This illustration shows the lens shift of the PT-EZ570/EW630/EW530.
A lens-centered, symmetrical design provides ease of installation, eliminating the need for any special considerations when planning the installation site.
Choose from a wide lineup of optional lenses for your system, including short-throw, long-throw zoom and fixed-throw lenses for rear projection use. The additional lenses make it easy to adapt your projector to the installation site. The lenses attach and detach with one-touch ease.
* The specifications are the same as those of the PT-EZ570/EW630/EX600/EW530/EX500, respectively.
All you need to do is designate four points as the corners of the projected image, and this function automatically carries out horizontal and vertical keystone correction.
Web browser on a computer connected through a LAN system lets you remotely operate projectors and check their status. An e-mail messaging function can also notify you when a lamp needs replacement, and indicate the overall projector status.
In addition, Multi Projector Monitoring and Control Software is available for monitoring and controlling multiple Panasonic projectors from a single PC.
The wired LAN terminal is compatible with PJLink™ (class1), an open protocol that is used by many manufacturers, to enable integrated control of systems that contain different brands of projectors.
The LAN terminal allows a computer connected to the network to use Crestron RoomView™ application software to manage and control system devices.
Extensive interfaces include HDMI and DVI-D input terminals, two sets of computer (RGB) input terminals,* and a serial (RS-232C) terminal for external control. It is also possible to output audio during Standby mode. This is convenient when connecting an external audio system through the projector.
* One set supports YPBPR (YCBCR) signals.
The PT-EZ570 Series projectors feature a high-output 10-watt monaural speaker that produces a large sound volume without requiring external speakers.
The quiet design keeps noise levels down to 31 dB,* so the sound of the cooling fan is hardly noticeable. This helps the audience to keep their attention on the speech when someone is giving a presentation or on the screen images during quiet scenes.
* With the lamp power set to Eco1 or Eco2. 37 dB with the lamp power set to Normal.
Two different image sources can be simultaneously displayed onto a single screen. You can also switch to P-in-P (Picture-in-Picture) mode and display a sub-window onto the main screen. The sub-window can be positioned at any of the four corners (upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right) to expand the usable area as only a wide-screen projector can do.
* This function is not effective for some source combinations.
You can change the default Panasonic start up logo to any logo you want. A new logo can be easily uploaded by connecting a computer to the PT-EZ570 Series through the LAN or serial connection by using the Logo Transfer Software*. An abundance of other security measures are also included, such as a security bar, Key lock, and PIN code lock function. This is very effective for preventing theft.
* Still images that can be uploaded are limited to 1024 x 768 pixel bitmap files. Also, the application will reduce the number of colors to 191.
For easy maintenance, you can replace the filter from the side and the lamp from the top of the projector. The filter and lamp are easily replaced even after the projector is installed on the ceiling.
The mechanical lens shutter completely blocks annoying light leakage when the projector is on standby or temporarily not in use, such as during a meeting.
• Presentation support/control tools such as Presentation Timer, Freeze Function, and Digital Zoom
• Projector identification system for remote control allocation of up to 64 projectors
• Direct Power Off right after use
