Full HD D-ILA Front Projectors
Taking Your Dreams a Step Closer to Reality.
JVC’s D-ILA projectors are specifically designed to satisfy users who demand the very best in
home cinema entertainment by ensuring “true black” performance — clearly displaying all the
smooth textures and delicate nuances of an image even in the darker areas of a picture. These
D-ILA projectors and their innovative technologies have earned a well-deserved reputation for
excellence worldwide, receiving a number of distinguished awards from the electronics
industry. With the new DLA-HD950 and DLA-HD550 D-ILA projectors, the dream of recreating
the quality of film in movie theatres, at home, is now a step closer to reality.
Exceptionally high contrast ratio
JVC’s D-ILA Projectors —
Unrivalled Picture Quality
Conventional projector with dynamic iris
The new 2009 D-ILA front projector models incorporate a number of
advanced technologies such as JVC’s proprietary D-ILA device, a wiregrid optical engine, and high-performance lens. But what really
differentiates JVC’s D-ILA projectors from other projectors is that they
do not employ a dynamic iris. JVC’s D-ILA projectors instead use a
fixed aperture to eliminate unnecessary light that can lower contrast
levels, making possible some of the industry’s highest native contrast
ratios. Innovations such as these and many other superb features

Clear Motion Drive
Clear Motion Drive technology successfully generates an accurate
intermediate frame even for images with fast-moving action by
employing a high-precision interpolation algorithm that strengthens the
precision of picture-character detection. Whether the video signal source
is 60 fps broadcasting or 24 fps movie content, viewers can enjoy
smoother and clearer images with reduced motion blurring thanks to this
unique interpolation technique that optimises the number of frames.

enable the DLA-HD950 to achieve an exceptionally high native contrast
ratio of 50,000:1*.
Enhanced brightness (extended white peak) and deeper, richer blacks
(wide dynamic range) ensure image reproduction that is vivid and full
of depth, making these projectors perfectly suited for viewing diverse
content, such as movies and music videos as well as live concert
performances and sports programmes.

Inverse telecine (reverse 2-3 pulldown)
In order to display TV broadcasts or commercially available DVDs
created using the 2-3 pulldown process, the inverse telecine (reverse
2-3 pulldown) function found on JVC’s D-ILA projectors re-converts
the video source back to a 24 fps signal and displays it at double
speed or 48 fps, ensuring cinema-like viewing that is very faithful to
the original source.

Highly Regarded Industry Certifications
Certified by ISF
(Imaging Science Foundation)
The DLA-HD950 projector has been licensed with the ISF C3
(Certified Calibration Controls) mode, enabling trained dealers to
professionally calibrate it to your choices of screen surface, lighting
environments and video sources and then securely store precision
settings into the projector. This helps to ensure reproduction of film
or video content accurate to the source and excellent picture
quality optimised for specific environments.
Outstanding Flexibility and Convenience
Flexible and easy set-up
Setting up the projector is easy as the ±80% vertical and ±34%
horizontal lens shift function is powered, allowing the picture to be
moved horizontally or vertically effortless via the remote controller.

Certified by THX
The DLA-HD950 projector features THX mode. This means the
projector has passed the THX Certified Display Program, which is
a series of tests conducted on display devices to verify the high
definition display performance that home theatre enthusiasts
demand today, ensuring that the projector will always deliver
superb picture quality faithful to the source.
And when positioning the projector outside of the lens shift
coverage area, the Digital Keystone function with ±30° vertical and
±40° horizontal adjustment helps to make distorted images look
more natural.
Also featured is a unique automatic lens cover that opens and
closes with power on/off to protect against dust, so even if the
projector is installed up on the ceiling, you’re assured of easy,
trouble-free operation via the remote controller.
The vertical and horizontal lens shift function cannot be set to the maximum values
simultaneously.
Newly designed remote control
The remote control unit for the new D-ILA
projectors has an attractive silver-grey colour that
adds appeal to its performance. It also features
well-positioned buttons for the picture modes
(see page 3) and direct input selector (HDMI 1, 2,
Component, Video, S-video and PC), which help
to enhance user-friendly operation.

Fine-tuning Promises an Excellent Picture
JVCís original picture modes
Recreating the quality of film in movie theatres with every nuance
reproduced was what JVC had in mind when it equipped its
D-ILA front projector models with original picture modes.
Colours displayed by projectors and those found in film are
processed differently as projectors display colours using an
additive colour mixture method where RGB primary colours are
layered on top of each other. On the other hand, film in movie
theatres use a subtractive colour mixture method that filters
CMY colours out of the light source. With the additive colour
mixture method, colours become brighter as colours are added
and due to an increase in energy, eventually turn white.
However, the opposite can be said for the subtractive colour
mixture method where colours become darker and eventually
turn black. JVC engineers thoroughly analysed the two methods
and succeeded in developing an optimised picture display by
performing advanced processing using a built-in LSI. So this
means that now what was once difficult to reproduce in the
home environment such as the delicate textures and nuances of
film can now be seen just like at a movie theatre.

Screen Adjustment Mode
As the quality of projected images may vary slightly depending
on the type of screen and its RGB reflective characteristics,
JVCís new D-ILA projectors have screen adjustment modes that
allow users to select the optimum mode to match screen
characteristics for more natural and balanced colour
reproduction.
High-performance 2x motorised zoom lens
The high-performance 2x zoom lens with motorised focus
features a large-diameter lens system to ensure the projection of
full HD images with exceptional depth. And to display the
deepest black possible, this lens is also equipped with a
16-step* lens aperture that
enables adjustment of
brightness according to user
preferences and operating
environments.

●
The projector is equipped with a high-pressure mercury lamp, which may break, emitting a loud noise, when it is subjected to shock or after it has been used for some length of time.
●
Please note that, depending on how the projector is used, there can be considerable difference between individual lamps regarding how many hours they will operate before requiring replacement.
●
An additional payment is required for installation of a new lamp, if necessary.
●
The projector lamp requires periodic replacement and is not covered by warranty.
●
Please be aware that, because the D-ILA device is manufactured using highly advanced technologies, 0.01% or fewer of the pixels may be non-performing (always on or off).
