JVC – NZ7 in Black

The DLA-NZ7 D-ILA projector is the world first home cinema projector to feature 8K/60p/4K120p input. It is equipped with a new 8K/e-shift proprietary technology to reproduce 8K quality images. The projector is driven by three native 4K D-ILA devices, a high quality 65mm glass lens, and Ultra High Brightness of 2,200 lumens. The BLU-Escent laser diode light source also contributes to project images that come close to reality.

These projectors adopt LSIs developed with the latest technology to process the vast amount of 8K input data, and an upconverter to bring any source up to high definition 8K resolution. As a result, more beautiful and realistic video images full of contrast and reality can be enjoyed regardless of the source, from video streaming to 4K UHD-BD videos.

The high end DLA-NZ9 is equipped with an 18 element, 16 group all glass lens featuring a full aluminium lens barrel*1. To project high resolution 8K images to every corner of the screen, the projector incorporates five ED lenses calibrated for differences in the R/G/B refractive index to reduce chromatic aberration and colour fringing when lens shift kicks in to deliver precise reproduction of 4K- or 8K-resolution*2 projection.

*1: 65 mm diameter, 17 element, 15 group all glass lens is featured on the DLA-NZ8, NZ7 and N5 models. *2: Resolution varies depending on the model.

The light source for these projectors is the latest blue laser diode BLU-Escent, which is featured in JVC projectors. BLUEscent technology has been adopted for home cinema projectors to achieve exceptional brightness and longevity of 20,000 hours*. Laser diode allows dynamic control of brightness to reproduce images that are closer to human perception. Combining the latest BLU-Escent package with the D-ILA device achieves detailed, smooth, powerful video expression.

*In theory, this amounts to 20 years or more while watching a 2.5 hour movie every day.

When it comes to reproducing the rich video information of HDR content including the extended brightness range, BT.2020 wide colour gamut and 10 bit gradation, rely on one of the new D-ILA projectors. New models support all HDR formats including HDR10 for Blu-ray and streaming, HLG for broadcasting, and the latest HDR10+ signal format with dynamic metadata compatibility.

JVC projectors are compatible with the two dynamic tone mappings of HDR10+ and Frame Adapt HDR. HDR10+ contains the metadata of the producer’s intentions for each scene, Frame Adapt HDR instantly analyses the peak brightness in HDR10 content using an original algorithm. Ensuring you can watch any HDR content in optimal picture quality.

As these projectors are equipped with 4K120p input, signal latency is infinitesimal, making it effective when displaying high frame rate gaming content on large screens. What’s more, Low Latency Mode reduces delay in displaying PC signals and games and improves response to the users’ rapid operations.
