Pure White Generator, developed by Panasonic Connect, contributes to rich color reproduction at high brightness of up

to 20,000 lm¹. Efficient light collection uses a multi-reflection system to minimize loss of light-source energy noticeable

with conventional systems. It achieves an optimal color balance without sacrificing brightness for realistic and accurate

color expression.

1 Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO/IEC 21118: 2020 international

standards. Value is average of all products when shipped.

Dynamic Contrast NX, a further evolution of Dynamic Contrast, uses a newly developed video-scene analysis circuit to

recognize differences in brightness and darkness more precisely than before.

Light and compact body improves loading efficiency and reduces CO₂ emissions associated with transport. In addition,

MZ20KL boasts the world’s lowest power consumption of any projector in its class¹ to reduce resources required for daily

operation. Laser light source and filter don’t need to be replaced for 20,000 hours², minimizing use of consumable

parts and other waste. From transportation to operation and maintenance, the environmentally friendly design reduces

labor and costs while supporting CSR, SDGs, and other green initiatives.

1 As of March 2023, based on publicly available power consumption values for LCD laser projectors with 20,000 lm brightness

and above according to internal research.

2 Around this time, light output will have decreased to approximately 50 % of its original level ([PICTURE MODE]: [DYNAMIC],

[DYNAMIC CONTRAST] set to [3], temperature 30 °C [86 °F], elevation 700 m [2,297 ft] with 0.15 mg/m³ of particulate matter).

Replacement of parts other than the light source may be required in a shorter period. Estimated time until light output declines

to 50 % varies depending on environment. Filter cleaning cycle varies depending on environment. Filter can be washed and

reused up to two times.

Multi-Laser Drive Engine ensures stable projection even if light-source problems occur. The Panasonic PT-MZ20K Series

Installation Projector is equipped with multiple modules consisting of many laser diodes, and in the unlikely event one

of the elements malfunctions, Panasonic Connect’s unique Failover Circuitry is activated so that projection can continue

with virtually no reduction in brightness. This allows the projector to be used with peace of mind in situations where a

drop in brightness could affect important presentations, such as large-scale lectures and seminars.

To achieve high brightness and stable operation, we adopted a liquid-cooling system originally developed for our DLP™

projection systems. This efficient design circulates cooling liquid to the light-source modules directly, preventing

temperature increases associated with high-brightness projection. Combined with a highly reliable original dustproof

structure, the system enables stable performance even in hot, dusty environments.

Backup Input¹ function enables seamless projection even if the input signal is disrupted. With HDMI 1 set as the primary

input and HDMI 2 set as the secondary input, the projector switches to HDMI 2 in as little as 0.3 seconds² if the signal to

HDMI 1 is disrupted. This improves reliability and ensures stable operation in environments where video presentation

must not be interrupted.

1 Primary Input (HDMI 1) and Secondary Input (HDMI 2) terminal assignment is fixed. Input signals to primary

and secondary inputs must be identical.

2 Varies depending on the Backup Input mode and the connected external device.

Information Monitor is located on the main unit’s control panel and displays information such as temperature, voltage,

operating hours, and input signals in real time. If a projector error occurs, the error number and associated details are

immediately reported. The status of the main unit can be easily checked, and quick recovery from trouble is made possible.

Data cloning function allows the user to copy settings and adjustment values from a Main projector to Sub projectors via

LAN¹ or USB memory device. This function reduces the time and effort required when setting up multiple projectors.

Note: Data-cloning is supported among models in the same series with the same resolution. Excludes passwords, projector ID,

and network settings.

1 Data can be copied to a maximum of 99 Sub projectors via LAN.

Smart Projector Control app¹ allows you to control the projector from a smartphone. By scanning the QR code² displayed on the OSD

menu screen or Information Monitor and connecting to wireless LAN, switching input signals and other functions can be performed

from a mobile device. In addition to being able to control up to 64 devices simultaneously, it also supports lens adjustment, test-pattern

switching, and focus adjustment using your device’s camera³ from a distance of 30 m⁴. For more information, please click here.

With built-in Geometric Adjustment, various distortions on the screen can be corrected via remote control. In addition to

trapezoidal distortion resulting from angled projection, Curved Screen Correction fixes distortion caused by projection

onto curved surfaces. Corner Correction allows the user to specify four screen corners, such as the upper right and lower

right, for correction. Screen proportions can be maintained and corrections can be saved as data.

In addition to built-in Geometric Adjustment function, Free Grid allows pinpoint correction of local distortion within

the screen. Grids between 2 x 2 and 17 x 17 lines can be selected to allow point-by-point correction, or batch correction

by specifying vertical and horizontal lines. Correction data is maintained even after changing the number of grids or

points, allowing smooth transition from basic to detailed correction. This convenient function allows adjustment of

special screens, such as irregular or uneven wall surfaces, with the remote control.

For advanced screen adjustment, Panasonic PT-MZ20K Series Installation Projector features Geometry Manager

Pro software¹ which expands built-in functions and enables adjustment from a PC. In addition to the standard

functions included in the software, Panasonic PT-MZ20K Series Installation Projector has built-in upgrade kits

that allow access to all functions without license activation. The Panasonic PT-MZ20K Series Installation Projector

offers unparalleled smoothness to reduce labor-intensive adjustment with camera-based² geometric distortion

correction, edge-blending, color-matching, stacking, and automatic adjustment of brightness and black levels.

2 Compatible cameras comprise Nikon D5200/D5300/D5500/D5600/D7500. Use of Auto Screen Adjustment

function with these cameras requires installation of Auto Screen Adjustment Plug-in (a free camera driver available

from PASS). Use of Auto Screen Adjustment function with D7500 requires Geometry Manager Pro Ver. 6.1.10 or later

and Auto Screen Adjustment Plug-in Ver. 5.1.10 or later.

With conventional black level correction, only the width and angle of the black border are specified for correction,

making edge-blending on curved screens difficult. To solve this problem, PT-MZ20K Series is equipped with a

function that allows the shape of black borders to be adjusted to match the screen shape. Using up to 17 points,

flexible black level correction is possible even on curved screens, enhancing the sense of cohesion in multi-screen

applications.

With Remote Preview LITE¹, you can check input images in advance even when it’s not possible to project content,

such as outdoors during the daytime or during performance rehearsals. When your PC and the projector are connected

to the network, you can use a web browser or Multi Monitoring & Control Software to display thumbnail images of

the input video. Check content even when the shutter is in use or the projector is in Standby² to quickly identify

any problems between the source device and the projector for faster recovery.

Panasonic Connect’s unique image quality correction circuitry reproduces details more clearly and sharply. It analyzes

video signal frequencies in each scene and adjusts for optimal sharpness based on information extracted from the signal.

Compared to conventional image processing technology, this system reproduces images with an even more natural and

three-dimensional feel.

A variety of optional lenses (eight models² in total) are available to support a range of screen sizes between 80 and

600 inches, allowing you to select the optimal lens for your projection needs. These lenses are equipped with a

temperature sensor and automatically correct focus in conjunction with the projector’s AFO² function. This

technology maintains a sharp image regardless of the brightness of the content, eliminating need for manual

focus adjustment. Of course, powered lens-shift and zoom adjustment is also supported via remote control

or Smart Projector Control app³.
