Panasonic ET-D3QW200

Short-Throw Zoom Lens with Lens Memory and Stepping Motor

Explore new opportunities for 50,000-lumen native 4K short-throw projection (with the PT-RQ50K projector) with zero offset, for captivating spatial performance.

Involve the audience more closely in the projection-designer's world. Viewers can approach to within about 5.9 feet (1.8 m) from a 350-inch image without casting a shadow. Powered vertical lens shift eliminates screen offset to further enhance audience engagement.

A throw ratio of 0.55–0.65:1, powered zoom, and V/H lens shift (vertical: -8%, +50%, horizontal: 0%, +17%) make it easy to deliver large native 4K images at short-throw distances from confined spaces, while supporting flexible image adjustment, without needing to relocate the projector during installation, saving time and effort.

Note: Please check the Compatibility tab to make sure that this lens is compatible with your projector.

Lifelike Native 4K Images Pull Viewers Inside the Experience

• Limitless Opportunity for Breathtaking Short-Throw Projection: Paired with Panasonic’s PT-RQ50K 3-Chip DLP™ Projector, which is optimized for vivid color reproduction with up to 50,000 lm¹ brightness, the ET-D3QW200 lens delivers breathtaking native 4K images from very short throw distances with flexible adjustment to streamline installation. Potential applications extend from single-screen installations to seamless 360° multi-screen panoramas on curved screens or over complex interior or exterior surfaces. The ability to deliver spectacular large-scale images from short throw distances opens exciting possibilities for high-brightness experience-oriented projection in diverse installation environments.

• Short Throw Distance and Zero Screen Offset for an Immersive Experience: Dissolve the barrier between audience and content with a short 0.55–0.65:1 (4K, 4096 x 2160, 17:9) throw ratio translating into throw distances from 172 inches (4,370 mm) for a 350-inch Native 4K image, allowing viewers to approach to within about 5.9 ft (1.8 m)² of the screen without casting a shadow and breaking the spell woven by color-rich 4K projection. Overwhelming realism is further enhanced by zero-offset projection capability. Wide-range (-8% – +50%³) powered vertical lens shift function can eliminate the gap between image and ceiling or projector mounting surface. Position the top and bottom of the image to meet ceiling and floor for seamless wall coverage, or to completely fill the available screen area. Short throw ratio and zero screen offset help to immerse your audience more deeply in the projection designer's world.

Outstanding Flexibility for Streamlined Installation

• Short Throw Ratio and L-Shaped Lens Reduce Installation Depth: Together with an exceptionally short throw ratio for projection in the 50,000-lumen class, the ET-D3QW200's L-shaped design reduces projector installation depth, bringing viewers closer to the content, while giving projection designers more freedom to create large-scale visual experiences in areas with limited installation space.

• Flexible Zoom and V/H Lens Shift Simplify and Expedite Installation: Optical zoom and wide-range V/H lens shift (vertical: -8%, +50%³ , horizontal: 0%, +17%) increase installation flexibility. Installing a projector fitted with a fixed short throw lens usually requires a high degree of precision, with installers sometimes having to remove, relocate, and reattach the projector several times before correctly placing the image. With the ET-D3QW200, adjustments can be performed at the technician's convenience after the projector is installed, using powered optical zoom and V/H lens shift, helping you to perform technically demanding installations on time and under budget.

Other Features

• AFO (Active Focus Optimizer): maintains optimal focus regardless of content brightness
