Panasonic PT-VMZ61U7 6,200 lm WUXGA Laser LCD Projector / Digital Link / 4K Signal Input

Product Overview

The Panasonic PT-VMZ61U7 is a 6,200-lumen WUXGA 3LCD laser projector for conference rooms, training rooms, and lecture halls that need reliable brightness in lit spaces. Its SOLID SHINE laser engine holds color brightness equal to white brightness, keeping presentation content legible without dimming the room. A 1.6x zoom with lens shift and 6-point screen correction gives integrators placement flexibility on off-center ceiling mounts. As a commercial laser projector with Digital Link and 4K signal input, it fits structured AV cabling and current source devices.

Product Description

The PT-VMZ61U7 pairs 6,200 lumens with native WUXGA (1,920 x 1,200) resolution and a 3,000,000:1 contrast ratio for vivid color and deep blacks. A 1.6x optical zoom with lens shift and 6-point screen correction lets installers square the image on angled walls and into corners. Digital Link carries video, control, and signal over a single cable for long ceiling runs, while wireless LAN content sharing lets users present from a laptop, USB drive, or mobile device—useful in huddle and multi-purpose rooms. Daylight View Basic measures ambient light and optimizes halftone color and brightness for better legibility in bright rooms. For higher output on the same platform, compare the PT-VMZ71BU7 and the PT-VMZ62BU8; for a lower-output option, see the PT-VMZ51SU7.
