A Whole New Level of 3D Viewing LCD Panels Driven at 480Hz and Original Overdrive Technology for Bright 3D Image The PT-AE8000 features 480Hz-driven LCD panels, which lengthen the time that the shutter is open about 1.5 times the duration of a 240-Hz drive system. Together with Panasonic's original high-precision overdrive technology, this improves the brightness of the images viewed through 3D Eyewear, while at the same time minimizing crosstalk, or double image seen as a result of the left image entering the right eye and vice versa. 3D Motion Remaster Delivers Correct, Natural 3D Movement This new technology solves the problem caused by a phenomenon called Or i gi nal the Mach-Dvorak effect, which occurs in many systems during 3D viewing. The active shutter 3D system displays left-eye and right-eye H igV^ \]ibdk ZbZci images alternately. This means that Mach- Dvorak Effect left-eye and right-eye images that ™ L]ZcVcdW_ ZXibdk Zh[gdb were captured at the same instant left to r i ght are shown with a time lag. During this time lag, especially when watch- ing a scene in which an object moves quickly and horizontally across the screen, the viewer's brain ™ L]ZcVcdW_ ZXibdk Zh[gdb r i ght to left automatically speculates and forms a image at a position that differs from the actual shown image. This results in incorrect depth perception and makes the horizontal movement appear unnatural. 3D Motion Remas- The viewer's brain perceives the depth incorrectly. ter technology achieves smoothly The PT-AE8000's 3D Motion moving 3D images by creating properly positioned images to compensate for the time lag.

Dual Core Processing Engine High-quality 2D image processing, including Frame Creation and Detail Clarity Processor, can be enjoyed in 3D as well, with the incorporation of the high-performance dual core processing engine. Frame Creation 2 for Motion Blur Reduction in 3D/2D Viewing A double-speed frame interpolation display for both 2D and 3D viewing, even during 2D-3D conversion, greatly improves the clarity of motion images, reproducing sharp and clear images for fast moving scenes in sports and action movies. For 24p signal input, four frames are calculated and interpolated for each existing frame, to enable 5x speed (120-Hz) display.

Customization and Installation Flexibility Lens Memory for 2D/3D Viewing Up to six settings, in 2D or 3D viewing, can be stored in the Lens Memory, including zoom and focus positions for projecting in the normal 16:9 or 4:3 image ratio, and wide cinema projection settings. These memories can be recalled manually for 2D or 3D, or can be set for automatic switching in 2D. The projector is able to detect 2.35:1 and 16:9 sources and retrieve the stored setting automatically. The Lens Memory function lets you easily enjoy images with different image ratios on a wide 2.35:1 screen for an immersive theater-like experience. 2.35:1 projection image 16:9 projection area Blu-ray/DVD contents Lens Memory In 2D viewing, the projector recalls the zoom and focus positions by detecting the aspect ratio. 16:9 projection image 2.35:1 projection area 2x Optical Power Zoom/Focus and Wide Lens Shift Range A 2x optical power zoom/focus lens and a lens shift function together make it possible to project a 120-inch picture from as close as 3.6 meters (11 feet 10 inches) to the screen or as far as 7.2 meters (23 feet 7 inches) away. In addition, the image can be shifted ±100% vertically, and ±26% horizontally. This gives you outstanding setup flexibility. If you choose to ceiling-mount the projector, you can zoom and focus by remote control. Waveform Monitor for Precise Calibration With the PT-AE8000 you can view the waveforms on the screen and adjust the settings both automatically and manually as you prefer. Advanced Gamma Adjustment Function The gamma curve can be flexibly controlled, allowing precise calibration according to the signal source and environment. Brightness (Y), R, G and B can each be adjusted at any fifteen points. Adjustment point positions can be shifted both horizontally and vertically to bring out the desired gradation level. Adjustment is easy because the small menu screen does not block the image. Split Adjust Mode for Easy Picture Adjustment You can freeze any scene you wish, and then make adjustments while easily comparing the original image and the adjusted image side by side. Cinema Color Management Premium Enables Flexible Color Control This color correction system enables free color control in two different modes. The Point Color Correction mode lets you pick a point in the image and adjust that color without affecting the neighboring colors. The Six Color Correction mode enables independent adjustment of red, green, blue, cyan, magenta and yellow. Adjustment is possible for either 2D or 3D viewing.
