JVC DLA-NZ8 Home Theater Projector

The DLA-NZ8 D-ILA projector is the world first (as of September 2021, according to a research by JVCKENWOOD) home theater model to feature 8K/60p/4K120p input. It is equipped with a new 8K/e-shiftX proprietary technology with 4-direction shift to reproduce 8K-quality image from 4K signals. 4K120p input also makes the projector ideal for gaming when combined with Low Latency mode. The projector is driven by three 0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA devices, high-quality 17-element, 15-group all glass 65 mm lens and Ultra-High Contrast Optics that contribute to deliver optical brightness of 2,500 lumens.

• Newly developed 8K/e-shiftX technology reproduces 8K image quality
• BLU-Escent Laser Light Source
• 2x HDMI (48 Gbps, HDCP 2.3) inputs, supporting 8K60P and 4K120P input signals
• New 0.69-inch 4K D-ILA (4096 x 2160) device x 3
• 17-element, 15-group all-glass 65mm diameter high-quality lens
• High brightness of 2,500 lm provides vibrant and dynamic images
• Native Contrast Ratio of 80,000:1 translates to a spectacular Dynamic Contrast Ratio of ∞ :1
• Wide Colour Gamut above exceeds DCI/P3 spec creating saturated, beautiful images that come to life
