Tomorrow’s

Standard
In Projection Performance

Breakthrough D-ILA
to new levels of quality and convenience

JVC’s powerful new duo of D-ILATMprojectors boast the superior
picture performance you demand and the high-performance
multimedia capability you need. Combining true S-XGA resolution
with 2000 ANSI lumens of brightness and a super-crisp 350:1
contrast ratio, these compact, easy-to-install projectors are ideal for
boardrooms, training centers, or conference facilities.

D-ILATM— A Breakthrough In
Projection T echnology

TM

technology takes projection performance

The core of D-ILATM(Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier)
projector device is a high-density reflective type LCD able
to project high-resolution images. With a homeotropic
structure in which the LCD elements are aligned vertically,
the D-ILATMdevice produces extra-bright, high-contrast
images ideal for big-screen projection applications.
The key to more affordable home and general presentation
projectors, the new 0.7" S-XGA+ (1,400 x 1,050) device is

able to take advantage of
higher yield, allowing it to
lower cost while offering a
higher resolution.
Also coming soon is the industry leading Q-XGA (2,048 x 1,536)
device. Offering full HDTV (1080i) compatibility without
compression, as well as D-ILA
quality, Q-XGA is destined to become the premier display technology
for digital cinema and other high-end applications.

High-Brightness 2000 ANSI Lumens &
Extra-High 350:1 Contrast Ratio

The D-ILATM’ s high light ef ficiency is supported by a power ful Xenon lamp that
makes it possible for the DLA-M20/L20 to generate an amazing 2000 ANSI
lumens of brightness. In combination with the extra-high contrast of 350:1,
this ensures that projected images are clear,
bright, highly visible images even in a bright
room.

T rue S-XGA Resolution

When projected onto a large-size scr een, the DLA-M20/L20’s high-density LCD
panels provide true S-XGA resolution without scaling or loss ofquality. With
resolution of up to 1,365 x 1,024 pixels, even the small characters and icons
typical of computer displays can be reproduced clearly. This makes the
DLA-M20/L20 the perfect choice for projection of high-r esolution 3D graphics
or detailed CAD images.

Adjustable Lens for Flexible Configuration

For more flexible installation, both models feature lens shift
capability. The projection lens can be manually offset between
30% and 55% in the vertical direction.

• DLA-L20: 2.9:1—5.6:1 Zoom lens

With its long-focus 2.9:1–5.6:1zoom lens,the DLA-L20 can be installed
in a broad room, still maintaining easy adjustment of the screen position
even when projected from a distance. So you can install the
projector virtually anywhere in a room.

Advanced Picture
Improvement T echnologies

The Adaptive DPC (Digital Pixel
Conversion) circuitry optimizes picture
quality regardless of the input signal r eso­lution to ensure smooth, clear images. The
10-Bit Digital Gamma Correction cir cuitry
facilitates accurate gray scale and color
reproduction. In combination with the
natural emission spectrum of the Xenon
lamp, this further enhances the natural
characteristics of the projected color.

Designed for Professional Use

Specifically designed to satisfy the demanding
requirements of professional applications, the
DLA-M20/L20 is equipped with two PC inputs
for seamless integration into pre-installed cabling
setups. Input channel settings can be set inde­pendently for each of the computer inputs (up to
10 user-preset channel settings available) and a
wide range of scanning frequencies are provided
to enable these high-performance projectors to
accommodate most standard input devices.

• DLA-M20: 1.5:1 Fixed lens

With adjustable 1.5:1 lens, you can quickly obtain an optimum projection
image even when using two units of DLA-M20 in a stacked configuration,
allowing you to achieve even higher levels of brightness than is possible
with a single projector.

The Ideal Replacement for CRT Projectors

With a lens that the same projection ratio as that used in many CRT
projectors, the DLA-M20 can be installed in practically same
position, providing an easy replacement option. And thanks to the
lens shift capability, you won’t have to reposition the projection
screen either.
