Advanced Technologies Help Maintain Superior Brightness
New Drive System for Optimal Lamp Performance

Lamps used in a projector require much higher precision than ordinary household lamps. Panasonic employs a number of new technologies― including an original lamp drive system―that help maintain optimal lamp performance for longer-lasting brightness. This has resulted in a 5,000-hour* lamp replacement cycle.

*   The PT-FW100NT lamp replacement cycle is 3,000 hours. This is a maximum value calculated by continuously turning the lamp on for 3.5 hours and off for 0.5 hour. The lamp replacement cycle will decrease if the lamp is turned on/off more frequently, or if it is left on for longer intervals.

Auto Rolling Filter (ARF) and Anti-Dust Design

A Micro Cut Filter, a high-efficiency electrostatic filter with superior dust-collecting performance, combines with Panasonic's original Auto Rolling Filter and anti-dust design to minimize brightness loss due to dust accumulation. The projector automatically detects when dust accumulates on the high-efficiency electrostatic filter and impairs performance. Airflow sensor detection and a preset timer work together to wind the affected section of the filter into the casing, so the filter maintains its dust-catching capability. In developing the anti-dust design, Panasonic totally re-engineered the airflow path, from intake to exhaust, to create a cabinet that hermetically seals off the projector interior. This design and the Auto Rolling Filter team up to keep the air inside the projector dust-free at all times.

Micro Cut Filter
A high-efficiency electrostatic filter in the air intake section traps dust particles that are 1 microns* or larger. By capturing approximately 7 times as much dust as our previous filters, it guards against optical blocks and reduces the penetration of dust into the interior to provide stable operation by preventing drops in brightness.

Daylight View 4 Technology: Enhanced Perception of Brightness and Contrast

The PT-F200 series feature Panasonic’s Daylight View 4 technology*2. Sharp edges are achieved with the new “Edge Enhancer Control” and "Gamma Curve Control." Remarkable detail is provided and perceived brightness and contrast are enhanced. As a result, images appear crisp, vivid, 3-dimensional and easy to see even in brightly lit rooms. Daylight View 4 also includes a built-in ambient light sensor that automatically detects room brightness and adjusts operation accordingly.

The PT-FW100NT is equipped with the Daylight View 3 function. It does not perform edge enhancing or gamma curve control.
