Style, Features and Convenience

Panasonic’s new PT-LB80 Series LCD projectors are ideal for anyone who wants an
easy-to-use projector but doesn’t want to compromise on image quality and performance.
The highly advanced dust-resistant design minimizes image degradation by
reducing the entry of dust into the unit. The design includes “gapless” touch-sensor controls
on the top panel and an airtight structure that concentrates the air intake into a
single location. Panasonic’s original Daylight View 4 feature provides bright, crisp images
even in brightly lit conditions. The network models*1 also include an easy-to-use wireless
function. In short, the PT-LB80 Series incorporates the unique essence and versatility
of Panasonic projector technologies while maintaining an elegant design.

Dust-Resistant Design and Full-Featured Performance
Dust-Resistant Structure Minimizes Image Degradation
After a projector has been used for some time, dust particles that have entered the interior
accumulate on the optical components and lower performance. The PT-LB80 Series
prevents this with a unique dust-resistant design. This totally redesigned package has
touch-sensor controls that eliminate the gaps around conventional buttons and a lens cover.
The design also incorporates a cover that protects the zoom/focus ring when not in use.
These features combine to help reduce dust entry. Inside the projector, the airflow is efficiently
controlled by a structure that reduces contact between external air and the optical
components. This all works together with the high-performance Micro Cut Filter to minimize
image degradation.

Daylight View 4 Offers Clear, Crisp Images Even in Bright Surroundings* 2
The PT-LB80 Series features Panasonic’s Daylight View 4 technology. Sharp edges are
achieved with the new “Edge Enhancer Control” and “Gamma Curve Control.” Remarkable
detail is provided and perceived brightness and contrast are enhanced, so images appear
crisp, vivid, 3-dimensional and easy to see even in brightly lit rooms. Daylight View 4 also
includes a built-in ambient light sensor that automatically detects room brightness and
adjusts operation accordingly.

Wide Images (PT-LW80NTU)
The PT-LW80NTU features wide-aspect LCD panels, which allow native reproduction of
WXGA (1,280 x 800) images from a computer. This provides a visually powerful display of
wide-screen images from DVD sources, as well as wide-screen images from wide-aspect computers,
which is already the mainstream.

Easy Wireless Projection
With the wireless capability of the PT-LB80NTU/ LW80NTU/LB75NTU, you don’t need cables to
connect a PC, either Windows® or Mac®. That means it’s easy to bring in a laptop (with a
wireless LAN function) and deliver a smooth, hassle-free presentation. You can make the
connection settings quickly and easily using the supplied Wireless Manager ME 5.0 software.
When the presentation is finished, Wireless Manager restores the PC to its previous
LAN settings, so the PC is ready to reconnect to your LAN. Multi Live Mode: Wireless Projection
from Multiple PCs

The network models (PT-LB80NTU/LW80NTU/ LB75NTU) provide a host of convenient wireless
functions, including Live mode and Multi-Live mode. In Live mode, the image projected
is identical to the image seen on the PC screen. In Multi-Live mode, you can wirelessly
connect with multiple PCs. Other wireless functions include Wireless
Prompter (Secondary Display Transmission), selective area transmission, and a 16-window
index style that lets you project images from up to 16 PCs at the same time. Wireless
transmission is possible from one PC to a maximum of eight projectors at a time.

Selective Area Transmission
By circling any area of the image, you can specify the necessary information to enlarge
and display that area on the projection screen.

Projector Signal Map
The signal map graphically shows the strength of wireless connection signals. This is convenient,
for example, when several projectors are being used in adjacent school classrooms
because it lets the user know which projector is to be used.

Extended Mac OS X Compatibility
In addition to its Windows Vista® compatibility, Wireless Manager ME 5.0 is fully compatible
with Mac OS X 10.4/10.5.* 3

function.

Elegant, Compact Design
The PT-LB80 Series has a sleek and elegant appearance that matches its high-performance
capabilities. The projector blends well with virtually any room interior, whether it is placed
on a desktop or mounted on the ceiling. At 2.96 kg, its light weight and compact design
also make it easy to move around.

Quiet Operation
The PT-LB80 Series’ operating noise is reduced to 29 dB,* 4 which minimizes noise interruptions
during meetings or lectures.

Quick Operation
• Three-Second Speed Start: With Speed Start, the image appears in about three seconds
after you press the power button.
• Auto Search: When a source is connected and you switch the unit on, it automatically
detects what kind of source is connected and
begins projection.
• Real-Time Keystone Correction: The projector automatically senses if you adjust its
angle (vertical direction) during operation and instantly makes whatever keystone correction
is necessary for optimum viewing.
• Direct Power Off: Because the cooling fan keeps operating until the lamp is cooled, you
can disconnect the power cable and move the projector as soon as your presentation is finished,
or turn off the room's main power when the unit is mounted on the ceiling.

Ceiling-Installation Capability
The projector can be permanently installed on the ceiling by using the optional ET-PKB80
ceiling mount bracket.

Abundant Connection Terminals
Designed for versatility, each projector comes equipped with a host of connection terminals.
The RS-232C specifications are the same as in previous Panasonic models, so replacement
is quick and easy.

Easy Lamp Replacement from the Rear
For easier maintenance, you can replace the lamp from the rear. The lamp is easily
replaced even after the projector is installed on the ceiling.

Easy-to-Use Remote Control
The control range and distance have been extended compared to previous models, and
the buttons are now larger and easier to use.
