Panasonic’s Definition of “True Image” The pictures you see at home may be very different from the images that filmmakers intended to express. It was Panasonic’s aim to achieve “true image”—the image that achieves the “Director’s Intention.” そこで私たちは、 Trueイメージはどのようにすれば完成すのか 原点に戻って考えました。高画質を実現するには実際に作品を手掛けた 制作者の意図” Director’s Intention”を忠実にディスプレイに再現すればよいと 気がついたのです。

Full-HD Optimized Optical System New Pure Contrast Plates New Lens System 5th Generation Intelligent Dynamic Iris Images with… Amazing Dynamic Range, Clarity, Sharpness, Color Purity Uncompromised Picture Quality New Full HD LCD Panels Smooth Screen Pure Color Filter Pro First will be improvement of optical performance. We went over more than 40 points of this function and 15 actual parts is newly designed. We came up with not only full white and full black spec contrast But also greatly improved dimensionality .

Deeper Blacks Three Dimensional Image Pure Contrast Plate NEW 60,000:1 Contrast Ratio for Lifelike Images Conventional PT-AE3000 Deeper Blacks Three Dimensional Image Effectively block unwanted light leakage.

Carefully Tuned Lens System *Aspherical lens Image Clarity and Sharpness Manufactured in Japan: The same factory that makes Leica lenses for Lumix Cameras* Each lens is aligned by highly skilled technicians Adds Life to Images Aspherical Lens Aspherical lens: lens whose surfaces have a profile that is neither a portion of a sphere nor of a circular cylinder The asphere's more complex surface profile can eliminate spherical aberration and reduce other optical aberrations compared to a simple lens. A single aspheric lens can often replace a much more complex multi-lens system. The resulting device is smaller and lighter, and possibly cheaper than the multi-lens design. Aspherical Lens

Input signal will be analyzed by each frame by 1/60 seconds.(0.017sec) Analysis will detect the volume of brightness signal within the frame. After that iris will adjust appropriate light intensity and supply to the LCD panel. Only Panasonic can activate sequence of movement by frame. With iris closed With iris opened PT-AE3000 PT-AE3000

Detail Clarity Processor 2 NEW Natural Clarity to Even the Finest Details Original image High frequency Super-high frequency: More faithful reproduction of highly detailed information, such as finer hair, sands, and the film grain in movies. Medium frequency Low frequency Conventional PT-AE3000 Sharpness is applied uniformly, causing a halo or ring effect. Different degrees of sharpness is only applied to necessary components for natural look.

Detail Clarity Processor 2 PT-AE2000 PT-AE3000 Super-high-pass filter is added for more precise optimization. Signal frequency is extracted and analyzed for each frame Super-high-, high-, medium-, low-frequency regions are identified and necessary sharpness is applied at varying degrees Greater clarity and sharpness to details
