Compact Native 4K Laser Home Cinema Projector in Black/White

Create a true cinema experience at home with the JVC DLA-NZ500, a compact native 4K laser projector designed for films, sports, and gaming on a large screen. Its 4K D-ILA technology, 40,000:1 native contrast and 2,000-lumen BLU-Escent laser light source deliver sharp detail, deep blacks and natural colour. Gen2 Frame Adapt HDR adjusts HDR content in real time, helping bright scenes look clearer and dark scenes show more depth, The Vivid picture mode also gives SDR content a brighter, more dynamic look. , while HDR10+ support and FILMMAKER MODE help preserve scene-by-scene detail and the creator’s intended look.

JVC D-ILA Line up

 


All Components Redesigned

The optical unit, lens, and circuit board have all been redesigned to achieve the world’s smallest native 4K projector.


Gen2 Frame Adapt HDR Function for
Brighter and More Colorful HDR Images

The Frame Adapt HDR function, which uses a proprietary algorithm to instantaneously analyze the maximum brightness of any HDR10 content per scene or per frame and perform real-time tone mapping to optimal dynamic range for video projection, has evolved into the second generation (Gen2). The algorithm for tone mapping has been fully reexamined to achieve HDR images with higher definition. Furthermore, the proprietary algorithm for tone curve selection has also been improved to reproduce HDR images that are brighter, more colorful and have a wider dynamic range.

 


Deeper Blacks for Richer Gradation

 

The new Deep Black Tone Control has been added to Frame Adapt HDR, with a new algorithm to further subdue tones in dark areas to achieve more realistic darkness. This function maximizes the dynamic range of the new-generation 4K D-ILA devices and delivers images with more contrast than ever before. Scenes with light and dark shades such as nightscapes can be projected with greater realism.


High Brightness and Long life

JVC’s proprietary laser light source technology, Blu-Escent, uses a blue laser diode as the light source. The DLA-NZ700 achieves a high brightness of 2,300lm and the DLA-NZ500 2,000lm. Both models have a laser life expectancy of approximately 20,000 hours.


Superior Resolution

Newly designed large aperture (80mm, 11groups, 15lenses) 4K compatible lens delivers full native 4K D-ILA resolution to every corner of the screen.
