Panasonic PT-P1SDU Multimedia Projector, 1500 ANSI Lumens, Native SVGA (800x600), with SD Card

The ultra-portable, ultra-versatile PT-P1SDU... a projector that's perfect for the in-home viewing of digital photos and movies and just as adept for displaying business presentations on the road and in the office.

The PT-P1SDU is the world's lightest and smallest LCD projector, weighing a mere2.9 pounds, and delivers 1,500 ANSI lumens of brightness and an array of time-saving display features.

The PT-P1SDU is the modern, multi-purpose version of the mechanical slide projector that was once highly popular with families for re-living vacations, events and treasured memories.

The PT-P1SDU has a built-in SD card slot for the big-screen display of digital still images* (or moving video shot with a digitalcamera*).

When the user slips an SD card into the projector's card slot, the PT-P1SDU automatically turns on and is ready to display images.

All the photos in a folder can be viewed automatically as a slide show, and several different transitions between slides are available, including Wipe, Fade Split, Blind, Checker, Slide In, Random and Off.

Viewers can run a slide show of favorite images in the projector's Direct Print Order Format (DPOF), and automatic photo rotation is also standard.

In addition to digital still images, the PT-P1SDU hasthe inputs to easily connect a TV, VCR, DVD player, laptop PC or gaming system.

(**Compatible with all Panasonic Lumix digital cameras. The PT-P1SDU can display only moving pictures recorded as QuickTime Motion JPEG files with a Panasonic Lumix digital camera.)

Getting down to business, the PT-P1SDU facilitates the delivery of PowerPoint presentations with and without a laptop for exceptional executive mobility.

Panasonic's Image Creator software converts the Microsoft PowerPoint file to a JPEG file, so laptops can be left at home or the office. The projector also features a presentation mode that starts a slide show automatically when an SD cart is inserted into the card slot.

The space-saving projector slips easily into a briefcase or travel bag, making it highly portable even when carrying it along with a laptop PC.

Thanks to its high-performance optical system and high-efficiency 130 UHM lamp, the PT-P1SDU produces high contrast (400:1 ratio) images at a sharp 800 x 600 native SVGA resolution (while providing advanced resizing technology to support UXGA).

The PT-P1SDU boasts Panasonic's exclusive Daylight View technology, achieving a substantial improvement in image performance. The projector's ambient light sensor detects changes in a room's light intensity and significantly enhances perceptible colors.

Because Daylight View achieves a superb level of color perception, users will experience less of a difference between PC display imagesand projected images. It also provides white balance adjustment settings for both fluorescent and incandescent lamps to match the room lighting.
