Product Overview
Designed to support a wide range of education and business applications, the PT-VMZ40U from Panasonic features a laser light-source enabling long 20,000-hour (1) operation to ensure lasting reliability, while delivering WUXGA resolution with 4,500 lumens of brightness (3) and supporting a 4K Signal Input (4).
Utilizing Panasonic's cooling technology - refined for higher-brightness models - results in the PT-VMZ40 being one of the world’s smallest and lightest (2) compact design with a brightness of 5,000 lumens. This laser projector features 1.6x zoom lenses for short throw-distances and supports wide V/H lens-shift to achieve flexible installation in small classrooms, meeting rooms, and limited spaces where multiple projectors are installed in one room.
