Panasonic has released its newest range of compact 4K 1-Chip DLP™ Laser Projectors, the PT-FRQ60 Series. Highly anticipated by the local market, this series offers ultra-fine, ultra-clear imagery via Panasonic's specialised Quad Pixel Drive technology.

Chris Maw, Product Marketing Manager Projectors & Commercial Displays at Panasonic Australia said: “This projector offers the future-proofing of 4K in a compact chassis, with a 2x zoom lens to bring large image sizes to confined areas. This versatility and convenience are backed with the reliability and low-maintenance delivered by Panasonic’s laser technology.”

He explained, “with laser projection and filterless cooling, there’s no need for constant maintenance, saving time and cost. Customers can simply enjoy the benefits of a projector that offers impressively sharp big screen viewing in any situation. It can be installed in a range of rooms, with a wide image shift for those challenging spaces where projector and screen positioning may not be centred.”

From corporate presentations to classrooms and museum exhibitions, the PT-FRQ60 and PT-FRQ50 delivers smooth and richly detailed 4K (3840 x 2160) images. Furthermore, it also supports 240Hz/1080p frame rates with minimal input-to-output latency of under 8ms -– widening its scope to fluid motion requirements, such as simulation and e-sports.

To meet the rising demand for ultra-fine detail resolution, Panasonic added Quad Pixel Drive to its proven 1-Chip DLP™ laser projection technology to create the 6,000 lumen PT-FRQ60 and the 5,200 lumen projectors.

Quad Pixel Drive, Panasonic’s original pixel-quadrupling technology, produces extraordinarily detailed 4K images that retain natural sharpness and clarity. High-speed 240Hz processing and a narrow DMD aperture ratio creates an impressive sense of realism with the finest details and textures resolved in smooth, grid-less images. Rich Colour Enhancer produces accurate colours for faithful content reproduction.

Ensuring a long and trouble-free lifetime, the highly reliable and low-maintenance projector offers up to 20,000-hour maintenance-free operation, while Multi Monitoring & Control Software streamline maintenance and optional Early Warning functions can prevent unexpected downtime.

This versatile projector can address a wide range of projection applications and 4K installation environments. The PT-FRQ60 Series includes two HDMI inputs that support CEC commands from compatible devices; an easy-to-integrate DIGITAL LINK connection for 4K video and control-signal transmission over long distances; and separate LAN terminal for control.

The 2.0x zoom lens brings large image sizes to confined spaces with flexible throw-distances. Combined with a wide V/H Lens Shift (V: +71%, -49%, H: +34%, -27%), it provides more freedom to adjust projector location and image position. Geometric adjustment is easily performed using Free Grid via remote control without the need for a PC, while preactivated upgrade kits for Geometry Manager Pro[1] enable automatic calibration of multiple screens simultaneously via camera, and an expanded range of software-based geometric adjustment and sophisticated masking capabilities. Remote Preview Lite allows input-video checks on a PC without image projection.

The PT-FRQ60 Series will be available via Panasonic authorised reseller partners from January 2022.
