Features

Making Immersive 4K1 Visuals More Accessible

Panasonic’s first 4K1 LCD projector delivers immersive detail from a sub-8 kg body—the smallest and lightest in its class2. Proprietary 2-axis
pixel-shifting technology and high 8,000 lm5 brightness ensure clear, dimensional 4K1 visuals even in bright rooms. Precise detail reproduction suits diverse applications—from corporate and education spaces to experiential attractions such as museums—while Vivid Green Mode enhances natural greens for golf simulation.

Easy to Handle with Flexible Installation

A compact, lightweight design and convenient adjustment tools simplify transport, installation, and image alignment. The 1.6x optical zoom and
wide-range lens shift provide flexibility to fit various installation spaces, while Angle Monitor streamlines single-person installation. With 4K DIGITAL LINK3 and two CEC command-compatible8 HDMI™ inputs, the series integrates into existing systems and supports widescreen (21:9/27:9) formats9 for modern visual applications.

Efficient, Eco-Conscious Design

Advanced optical engineering delivers high-brightness 4K1 performance with outstanding energy efficiency of up to approximately 20 lm/W10. An Image Detection11 function automatically reduces light output when the projected image remains unchanged for a set period, saving power. The projector’s plastic body parts incorporate approximately 50%12 recycled resin, while recyclable paper trays replace foam insulation in the shipping carton, further reducing environmental impact.

1 Displayed resolution (3840 x 2400 pixels) with 2-axis pixel-shifting technology [ON].

2 As of January 2026, according to our research, the PT-VMQ85 is the smallest and lightest 4K LCD projector with more than 8,000 lm, and the PT-VMQ75 is the smallest and lightest among those with more than 7,300 lm.

7 Resolution decreases when using Digital Zoom Extender. Grid Adjustment, 6-Point Screen Correction, V/H Keystone Correction, and curved-screen correction are not available when using this function. The range of corner adjustment is limited.

8 When Digital Zoom Extender is set to 80 %.

9 Depending on the connected CEC command compatible device, the link control may not operate normally.

10 YPBPR 4:2:0 format only for 4K/60p signals input via DIGITAL LINK.

11 On standby, power supply is available with Quick Startup set to ON or Power Management set to Ready.

14 On-mode power consumption measured at 25 °C (77 °F) operating temperature at an altitude of 700 m (2,297 ft).

15 Filter cleaning cycle varies depending on the environment. The filter can be washed and reused up to two times. Filter cleaning cycle: 20,000 hours (under dust conditions of 0.08 mg/m3), 10,000 hours (under dust conditions of 0.15 mg/m3).

16 Average value. May differ depending on the actual unit.

17 Light output is limited at operating temperatures higher than 30 °C (86 °F), and projectors cannot be operated at altitudes higher than 2,700 m (8,858 ft) above sea level.

18 When the optional AJ-WM50 Series Wireless Module is attached, the operating temperature range becomes 0–40 °C (32–104 °F).

19 When using Presenter Light Software, images are projected with 1280 x 800 dots or 1024 x 768 dots onto the screen. Also, your PC display resolution may be forcibly changed, and audio playback disrupted or become noisy while images and sound are being transmitted.

20 When using the Wireless Projector app, display resolution differs depending on your iOS/Android™ device and the display device. The maximum supported display resolution is WXGA (1280 x 800).
