High-Quality, Go-Anywhere Projectors Packed with Top Features
Finally, projectors that provide top features without damaging your bottom line. With the PT-LC75E and PT-LC55E, Panasonic offers two micro-portable LCD projectors that represent a perfect balance of performance and price. The PT-LC75E XGA projector and PT-LC55E SVGA projector are packed with user-friendly features and advanced digital technologies. In picture quality, both models stand well above others in their class. Both deliver 1200 ANSI lumens of br ightness, making them suitable for use in meeting rooms and classrooms. Both are
compact and lightweight (only 3 kg/6.6 pounds), making them easy to take anywhere you go. These multi-purpose projectors are ideal solutions for compa­nies, schools, or offices looking for high performance without the high pr ice.
The PT-LC75E and PT-LC55E fit a host of user-friendly features into compact, attractive bodies that are about the size of an A4 file.
One-Touch Auto Setup with digital key­stone correction — you’re ready to go in about 1.5 seconds.
Extra short-throw lens* displays an 80-inch diagonal image at only 2.4 m, for large images even in small rooms.
* Features manual zoom and focus
Advanced technologies provide uni­form colours, smooth gradation, and high-quality motion pictures*.
* Digital Cinema Reality and 3-D digital comb filter are
featured on the PT-LC75E only.
Bright 1,200 ANSI lumens and a high 400:1 contrast ratio.
Weighs only 3 kg / 6.6 lbs.
Whisper-quiet at less than 30 dB*.
* In standard lamp power mode
Two computer signal inputs and moni­tor out capability.*
* Allows you to view your presentation both on a screen
and on your PC display.Only one input can be used during RGB loop-through monitor ing.

Bright 1200 ANSI Lumens, High 400:1 Contrast Ratio
The PT-LC75E and PT-LC55E deliver super-bright per­formance with 1200 ANSI lumens, thanks to a newly­designed, high-performance optical system and high­efficiency 160-W UHM™ lamp. The high contrast ratio of 400:1 ensures that images are shar p, crisp, and easy to see. Both models also provide excellent br ight­ness uniformity of 90%.
Excellent Colour Rendition
The use of advanced 10-bit digital gamma correction circuitry with the latest algorithm gives the PT-LC75E and PT-LC55E naturally vivid, uniform colours and smooth image gradation. Plus, full compati­bility with the “sRGB” standard colour space adds more accurate colour reproduction to your presentations. The PT-LC75E also delivers outstanding moving pictures thanks to a Digital Cinema Reality (DCR) circuit and
3-dimensional comb filter*. * For NTSC signals only
One-Touch Auto Setup—Ready in Just
1.5 Seconds
The One-Touch Auto Setup function with digital key­stone correction saves adjustment hassles. Panasonic’s original built-in gravity sensor determines the projec­tor’s angle relative to the floor (up to 30 degrees) and corrects for keystone distortion accordingly. This makes set-up super-easy: Just aim the projector at the screen and press the Auto Setup button. The projector handles all picture adjustments, from phasing and dot clocks to vertical and horizontal position. Our newly designed algorithm slashes set-up time to just 1.5 seconds—half the time of our previous models.
Extra Short-Throw Lens
The PT-LC75E and PT-LC55E are equipped with a large-diameter, extra short-throw lens that shortens the necessary projection distance by 25%. Conventional projectors often have to be positioned in the middle of the meeting table, with considerable distance between the lens and the screen. The shorter projection distance of the PT-LC75E and PT-LC75E saves space. For instance, 2.4 m or less is needed to project an 80-inch diagonal screen, allowing the projector to be placed at the front of the table. This convenient feature enables
comfortable presentations with large, easy-to-see images even in small rooms.
Quiet Cooling Fans—Only 30 dB
Whisper-quiet fans and switchable dual-mode operation combine to reduce operating noise to 30 dB (in stanard lamp power mode). A newly developed exhaust fan also minimises light leakage.
Accepts Up to Two RGB Inputs and One RGB Output
Two RGB inputs eliminate the need to re-connect equipment when giving two different presentations back to back. The RGB2 ter minal can also serve as a loop­through monitor ing terminal for the RGB1 input. For instance, an instructor in a classroom can use this to give a presentation on a large screen while following the same images on a PC, eliminating the need to keep looking at the screen behind.
Unique Index Window
Any image in the presentation, RGB or video input, can be frozen, stored in memory, and displayed on the left side of the screen as an Index Window, while the dis­play of subsequent images continues on the right. This can make presentations much easier to understand.
3,000-Hour Lamp Life
The user can select from Standard and High lamp power modes. Designed for use in dark rooms, Standard mode uses a lower lamp power that minimis­es energy consumption and lengthens the lamp life up to 3,000 hours (2,000 hours in high lamp power mode).
Note: Brightness is reduced 25% in Low mode .

The sRGB Standard Colour Space
sRGB is a new standard that assures uniform colour expression among scanners, monitors, pro­jectors and other imaging equipment. Applying the sRGB standard minimises hue deviations to ensure the same high level of colour reproduction in each device.
