Ultra-high-quality 1.5M pixel-resolution images,
natural color reproduction, and versatile
projection functions for impressive, high-impact
presentations.
From engineering and architecture to fashion design and advertising, many businesses depend on accurate, high-quality imaging to develop
products or to communicate effectively with clients and employees. Simulations, 3D, and CAD all demand natural color reproduction and the
highest-possible resolution to ensure that projected images look as their creators intended. From small fonts and high-resolution graphics to
high-quality animation and motion pictures, the DLA-SX21 projector delivers stunning projection images with ultra-high 1.5M-pixel resolution and
superb color reproduction capability. For even more accurate results, this quality-oriented projector is provided with a color profile, DVI-D Plug
and Play, and DIST enhancer. Convenient presentation functions such as H/V digital keystone and GUI on-screen menu setting are also
provided. Versatile enough to handle the requirements of many different applications including multi-window and motion picture presen- tations,
the DLA-SX21 projector is equally at home in technical training classes, medical seminars, business conferences and executive boardrooms.
And, with its high-resolution pictures and superb color reproduction, this high-quality projector can also provide the foundation of state-of-the-art
home theater, as well.
New technologies
True SXGA plus (1400 X1050 pixels)
with D-ILA technology
The DLA-SX21 incorporates three high-performance SXGA+ (1400
x 1050) 0.7" D-ILA devices (1.5M pixels x 3) with a total of 4.5M
individual RGB pixels. These pixels are converged on screen to
produce a stunning, high-resolution picture with 1.5M high-density
converged pixels. The high-density, reflective liquid crystal
structure used in JVC's original D-ILA (Direct Drive Image Light
Amplifier) technology achieves the optimal combination of
brightness, resolution, contrast and color for the big screen.
Thanks to the fine pitch D-ILA device, images are smooth as silk,
boasting incredible detail and lush, vibrant, super-realistic color.
Because small text, 3D computer graphics, animation and moving
pictures are all displayed clearly right into the corners, this system
is ideal for multiscreen applications. You'll be able to effectively
combine each image with other images for a more powerful, highimpact presentation.
JVC has developed a powerful new optical engine that incorporates
PBS (Polarized Beam Splitter) circuits. The PBS circuits separate
light source into Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) components and
then use these RGB components to compose the image
reproduced on-screen. Incorporated in the DLA-SX21, this original
JVC technology minimizes dissipation in the light path and
suppresses stray light in the prism, making it possible for this small
0.7" device to deliver an impressive 1500 ANSI lumens with an
enhanced contrast ratio.
Developed specially for the DLA-SX21, this all-new circuitry (shown
below) improves the sharpness, S/N, and color reproduction of both
graphics and video. Gray scales and shading correction levels are
also enhanced.

JVC color profile
JVC's color profile technology has been developed to ensure that
colors are reproduced with greater fidelity to the original. Important
color reproduction elements such as "color temperature", "gamma"
and "RGB gamut" are optimized for each of four modes (sRGB,
MacRGB, AdobeRGB, EBU). Simply choose the mode that
matches your source for best results.
4 color profile modes are available.
1 sRGB mode: Corresponds to the color reproduction and color space defined by the
2 Mac mode: Gamma and gamut preset to match Mac computer
3 Adobe mode: Gamma and gamut settings optimized for Adobe applications such as
4 EBU mode: Suitable for broadcast video monitors.
DVI-D Plug and Play
Enables digital-to-digital input and ensures high-quality image
reproduction without degradation.

optimum device operation according to the
input signals. This operation processing
enables the D-ILA device to express film-like
gradations.
H/V digital keystone correction
Keystone correction can
be performed horizontally
(Ⳳ10 degrees) and
vertically (Ⳳ30 degrees).
So, projection is possible
offset at an angle, making
installation flexible.
Note :The maximum correction range
is narrowed depending on the resolution and the combination of horizontal and vertical corrections.

Original JVC DIST (Digital Image Scaling
Technology)
JVC's original DIST technology consists of IP conversion, pixel
density conversion and enhancer technology. Together these
technologies ensure full correspondence with most DTV format
signals, as well as with conventional NTSC/PAL/SECAM signals.
Input signals are converted to SXGA plus resolution with reduced
flicker and smear.
IP: The IP conversion system corresponds with all interlaced signals (including
NTSC/PAL/SECAM/1080i (50 Hz/60 Hz), 24sF, 25sF, 30sF) by selecting the optimum pulldown system (2-3 or 2-2 pull-down).
DPC: The pixel density conversion system achieves favorable frequency characteristics.
DSD: JVC's original contour correction technology (DSD - Digital Super Detail) is able to
accurately control horizontal and vertical lines while suppressing the influence of oblique
lines. Also incorporated is a color difference signal enhancer without overshoot that
minimizes smear in color details . Two additional enhancers (with overshoot and without
overshoot) are provided to enhance expression of details.
To ensure compatibility with DTV signals,
the DLA-SX21 accepts analog signals in the
720p, 1080i, 1080p and HDTV formats.
High contrast of 800:1
With extra-high contrast ratio of 800:1, the DLA-SX21 projects images with
sharp details, crisp edges and great depth. Even in a bright room, images are
clear, sharp and natural looking.
Digital shift
With Digital Shift, you can adjust the display position of the 16:9 image up or down
on the 4:3 screen. This gives you a lot more installation flexibility when using the
16:9 screen; for example, when suspending the projector from the ceiling.

User-friendly design
Easy-to-change lamp and low running cost
The lamp can be easily replaced from the side
and the filter from the front underside of the
projector. An NSH lamp (high-pressure mercury
lamp) is used, so running cost is kept low. The
lamp life is approx. 2000 hours.
Easy installation
Installation is a snap, so you can take this
projector anywhere for a presentation without
worrying about setting it up. The feet can be
adjusted to optimize the projection angle.
Compact, portable
The lamp replacement is easy. Just
remove the cover, unscrew the two
screws, and pull out the lamp. Place
a new lamp in the socket, screw it in,
and replace the cover.
