Compact Form-Factor Streamlines Workflow
The Panasonic PT-RQ25k is 40 % smaller and 35 % lighter with a body size similar to our 10,000-lm 1-Chip DLP™ projectors. Intel® SDM-ready slot integrates your preferred terminals with optional proprietary or third-party function boards. Smart Projector Control app with NFC function, Remote Preview Lite, and preactivated upgrade kits for Geo Pro simplify installation.
The World’s Smallest and Lightest 20,000 lm 3-Chip DLP™ 4K Projector
Create an Engaging Visual Experience
Smooth 4K Images with Quad Pixel Drive
Quad Pixel Drive, our original 2-axis pixel-quadrupling technology, creates smooth 4K images with vivid 3-Chip DLP™ color and high brightness. A new Dynamic Contrast setting delivers higher white brightness and deep blacks during high-contrast scenes. Gradation Smoother reduces color-banding via remote control, while improved point-based black-level adjustment supports edge-blending over curved screens with pixel-level precision.
Newly Improved Dynamic Contrast
Panasonic’s Dynamic Contrast technology has evolved to 25,000:1. In addition to the high contrast ratio, Dynamic Contrast gains new image-scene analysis that enables more detailed recognition of light and dark areas and better contrast expression. The technology analyzes content frame-by-frame and digitally adjusts light output according to the contrast requirements of each scene.
Gradation Smoother to Reduce Color Banding
Gradation Smoother technology reduces banding in gradients of shaded color that can become evident in content that lacks adequate color bit-depth. Use the projector remote to select from three levels of image correction depending on how much banding is present, or disable the function when it’s not needed. Gradation Smoother is a lifesaver when banding is apparent in the projection and there’s no time to re-edit the content.
Adjust Black Levels on Curved Screens
With conventional black-level adjustment, achieving uniform black levels inside blended areas on curved screens has always been tricky. This is because the curvature of the screen distorts the width of black borders used to set black levels. Panasonic answers the problem with advanced black-level adjustment to suit arbitrary screen shapes. You can use up to 17 control points to reshape black borders so they fit the screen without distortion, allowing you to set black levels uniformly with 0.5-pixel precision that’s ideal for 4K content.
Adjust Black Levels Inside and Outside the Image Display Area
Panasonic’s unique black-level adjustment has further evolved to eliminate distracting black-level bumps that can appear in blends outside of the image display area after geometric adjustment is applied. By unlinking black-level adjustment from geometric adjustment, black-level settings can be applied to the entire blend, including the image overlaps outside the image display area, for a completely seamless multi-screen image.
Reliable and Maintenance-free for Peace of Mind
Hermetically sealed optical block is cooled by a high-efficiency liquid-cooling system enabling maintenance-free projection for 20,000 hours.
Multi-Laser Drive Engine prevents brightness loss in the event of diode failure, while Backup Input switches to a backup signal if the primary signal is interrupted for peace of mind.
Compatible with Our 3-Chip DLP™ Lens Lineup
PT-RQ25K is compatible with Panasonic’s fixed and zoom lenses for 3-Chip DLP™ projectors1. Lens-shift range is now significantly wider with up to ±66 % (V) and ±24 % (H) of powered adjustment available with supported lenses. ET-D3LEU100/D3LEU101 Ultra-Short-Throw Lens and ET-D3LEW200/D3LEW2012 Short-Throw Zoom Lens produce jaw-dropping images from short throw-distances with zero offset at the top and bottom of the image. The projector also suits ET-D3LEF70 Fisheye Lens for full-dome 4K projection, and the new ET-D3LEW600 Zoom Lens.
Backup Input Reduces Chance of Interruption
Backup Input function provides a layer of insurance against display interruption during mission-critical events. Two identical signals can be transmitted to HDMI 1 (Primary) and HDMI 2 (Backup). If transmission to the primary input is interrupted, the projector switches to the backup signal automatically in a minimum of 0.3 seconds1 without screen-blanking. When communication is restored, the projector can be switched back to the primary input.
Includes Built-in Mechanical Shutter Function
With a built-in mechanical shutter. It’s useful at events where laser lighting is used. The shutter protects the DMD imaging elements from direct exposure to laser light that can enter the optical block via the lens. You can keep the projector powered on with the shutter closed, ready to resume playback at the touch of a button.
Multi Laser Drive Engine with Failover Circuitry
Multiple laser modules are equipped with Panasonic’s unique Failover Circuitry. In the unlikely event a single diode fails, Failover Circuitry continues to supply electricity to the functional diodes in the series, minimizing brightness loss. If the same issue were to occur in projectors without Failover Circuitry, all diodes in the module may shut down, resulting in significant loss of brightness. Multi Laser Drive Engine gives peace of mind in mission-critical situations when image display cannot be interrupted.
Wide Scalability with Intel® SDM-ready Slot
Intel® SDM-ready slot integrates optional proprietary or third-party1 function boards. These function boards reduce installation complexity and make it easier to adapt, scale, and expand your projector’s connectivity to suit different applications now and in the future. The projector works with Panasonic’s 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-party1 PC boards, terminal boards, and AVoIP boards.
Supports 20,000 Hours of Maintenance-free Projection
Features a hermetically sealed optical engine that prevents ingress of fine dust particles, eliminating need for an air filter and enabling 20,000 hours of maintenance-free projection. Newly refined liquid-cooling system and optimized one-way airflow path enable continuous operation in dusty environments.
