<\/h4>\n<\/h4>\nINDIANAPOLIS, September 8, 2011 \u2013 JVC today introduced new home theater projectors that display 2D HD content with full 4K precision. They feature JVC\u2019s new e-Shift technology capable of projecting images with 3840 x 2160 pixel resolution, four times that of full HD.\u00a0 The upconverting technology is available in four of seven new 3D-enabled projectors that boast a wide range of advancements, including higher native contrast than previous models for levels that remain unmatched by any other home theater projector.<\/p>\n
The new projectors are the Procision Series DLA-X90R, DLA-X70R and DLA-X30, marketed by JVC\u2019s Consumer Electronics Group, and the Reference Series DLA-RS65, DLA-RS55, DLA-RS4800 and DLA-RS45, available through JVC Professional Products Company.\u00a0 JVC\u2019s 4K e-Shift technology is featured in the top four models, while all seven new projectors offer other advancements that boost picture quality, improve 3D performance and enhance functionality.<\/p>\n
Earlier this year NHK Science & Technology Research Laboratories, NHK Engineering Service Inc. and JVC Kenwood Corporation collaborated in the development of a Super High Vision projection system that utilizes e-Shift technology. Now, that technology is available in the DLA-X90R, DLA-X70R, DLA-RS65 and DLA-RS55.\u00a0 Using e-Shift, 2D HD content is upconverted and scaled to a 4K signal (3840 x 2160) and the e-Shift technology displays it at full 4K precision.\u00a0 Compared to a Full HD (1920 x 1080) image, that\u2019s twice the horizontal and vertical resolution and four times the number of pixels, or over 8 megapixels.\u00a0 The result is a stunningly detailed image with minimal aliasing artifacts found in standard HD displays.<\/p>\n
All seven projectors are 3D-enabled and offer \u2022 2D-to-3D Converter \u2013 Converts 2D program material to 3D using technology derived from JVC\u2019s professional 2D-to-3D converter. Included are user adjustments for 3D depth and subtitle geometry correction;<\/p>\n \u2022 JVC\u2019s 3D anamorphic feature combined with an optional anamorphic lens make it possible to enjoy 3D movies in the popular 2:35 scope format;<\/p>\n \u2022 Compatibility with a wider range of 3D broadcasts, including 1080p\/24 and 720p side-by-side formats; \u2022 A Cross Talk Canceller further reduces cross talk through analysis of the left eye and right eye signals and applying appropriate correction;<\/p>\n \u2022 A parallax adjustment allows the user to tailor the 3D image effect; In addition, the top four models \u2014 DLA-X90R, DLA-X70R, DLA-RS65 and DLA-RS55 \u2013 have been designed to achieve THX\u00ae 3D certification and are scheduled for testing by THX.\u00a0 During the THX 3D certification process, more than 400 laboratory tests are conducted, evaluating color accuracy, cross-talk, viewing angles and video processing to ensure the superior out-of-the-box 3D and 2D display performance that home theater enthusiasts demand.<\/p>\n Other features shared by these four models include:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n \u2022 ISF certification;<\/p>\n Enhanced installation adjustment, including a new 1\/16th pixel shift function to precisely tune convergence via 121 adjustment points (11 vertical x 11 horizontal)\u00a0 and an increased number of screen mode preset positions, up to a maximum of 255;<\/p>\n \u2022 An upgraded optical engine that further improves black level and native contrast; ISF and THX Calibration via corresponding software to allow advanced adjustment by certified ISF calibrators;<\/p>\n \u2022 Three Xenon lamp color modes that emulate the characteristics of high-end movie projectors.<\/p>\n Other enhancements new for all seven 2012 projectors are:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n \u2022 Lens memory function \u2013 Three memory settings store custom focus, zoom and horizontal\/vertical lens shift position. This allows a constant height display of 4:3, 16:9 and 2:35 scope content without an additional anamorphic lens;<\/p>\n \u2022 A LAN connection that provides enhanced system control and easy firmware or screen mode updates.<\/p>\n To provide enthusiasts with a true measure of performance, JVC has long focused on native contrast and refused to artificially enhance contrast specifications through the use of a dynamic iris.\u00a0 For 2012, native contrast has been improved across the entire line, ensuring that every frame consistently and faithfully reproduces peak whites and deep blacks.<\/p>\n The new flagship projectors, the DLA-X90R and DLA-RS65, are built using hand-selected, hand-tested components and provide a 120,000:1 native contrast ratio.\u00a0 For 3D viewing, both models come with two pairs of 3D glasses and a PK-EM1 3D Signal Emitter.\u00a0 Both projectors also have a three-year warranty.<\/p>\n The DLA-X70R and DLA-RS55 offer 80,000:1 native contrast ratio, while the DLA-X30 and DLA-RS45 offer 50,000:1 native contrast ratio. All four projectors come with a two-year warranty.\u00a0 The DLA-RS4800 is ISF certified, offers a 55,000:1 native contrast ratio, comes with a three-year warranty, and includes a spare lamp.\u00a0 JVC Active Shutter 3D Glasses and the PK-EM1 3D Signal Emitter are sold separately.<\/p>\n All seven new projectors feature three 0.7\u201d 1920 x 1080 D-ILA devices and are designed around JVC\u2019s third generation D-ILA High Dynamic Range optical engine that is optimized to provide exceptional native contrast ratios without a dynamic iris to artificially enhance contrast specifications.\u00a0 A directed light integration system and wire grid polarizer ensures optimum light uniformity and minimal crosstalk in the light path.\u00a0 In the top four models (DLA-X90R, DLA-X70R, DLA-RS65 and DLA-RS55) a combined 16-step lens and lamp aperture adjustment allow the user to optimize the f-number (relative aperture) of the optics system in all steps. The DLA-X30, DLA-RS45 and DLA-RS4800 feature a 16-step lens aperture.<\/p>\n The new JVC D-ILA home theater projectors will be available in November at the following prices:<\/p>\n DLA-X90R\/DLA-RS65<\/strong> $11,999<\/p>\n DLA-X70R\/DLA-RS55<\/strong> $7,999<\/p>\n DLA-RS4800 <\/strong> $4,995<\/p>\n DLA-X30\/DLA-RS45<\/strong> $3,499<\/p>\n In addition to the JVC PK-AG1 active shutter 3D glasses currently available, JVC announced new glasses \u2013 the PK-AG2, which are more compact, lighter and rechargeable.\u00a0 The PK-AG1 glasses remain available and are ideal for use over eyeglasses.\u00a0 Both models are compatible with the currently available PK-EM1 3D Signal Emitter.<\/p>\n
