In the movie world, each creator has a personal definition of the perfect image. During development of the PT-AE700, to realize
an image on screens at home true to the intentions of all creators, Panasonic consulted with top Hollywood colourist Mr. David
Bernstein. Panasonic developed and equipped the PT-AE700 with new, unique integrated cinema quality circuitry and core image
optimizers to meet the strict demands of colourists. We incorporated into the PT-AE700 the artistic creativity of David Bernstein,
who has an unrivaled sense of picture-quality colour coordination. Thereby was born the PT-AE700, an LCD projector with a
stunning picture reproduction that is truly worthy of the accolade "Hollywood picture quality."
Smooth Screen technology effectively reduces the “chicken wire
effect”—the black lines between pixels that mar the images of
conventional LCD home cinema projectors. The high-definition
picture of the PT-AE700 is remarkably smooth and film-like, and at
the same time amazingly sharp and detailed.

Smooth Screen technology
By making use of our CCM technology, you can decide precisely how
the PT-AE700 presents your images. With 2,401 picture quality
settings to choose from, contrast, brightness and gamma level are
widely adjustable across 7 picture modes. Furthermore, up to three
sets of adjustments can be stored in memory, enabling users to
bring back the exact image settings they would like at any time.
Whether you are watching a movie, a live music performance or a
sports event, the PT-AE700 will project the scene exactly how you
want to see it.

Other features
10-bit full digital processing and 10-bit gamma correction
Accurate reproduction of subtle variations in brightness or hue is realized
using 10-bit full digital processing and 10-bit gamma correction, which
quadruple the number of displayable colours to over 1 billion (with 1,024
gradations).
New Dynamic Sharpness Control
The new Dynamic Sharpness Control circuit adjusts the video signal
waveforms based on the difference in brightness of adjacent pixels for a
sharp, clear picture that is relatively unaffected by signal noise.
Progressive Cinema Scan (3/2 Pulldown) and HD IP
Progressive Cinema Scan (3/2 Pulldown) interlace/progressive conversion
technology automatically detects when the input signal is derived from filmed
material. HD IP enables the AE700 to convert signals recorded at a higher
quality than conventional models.
Wide, high-definition LCD panel for sharp, detailed images
A wide 1280x720 pixels high-definition LCD panel generates the sharp
images of PT-AE700. Its three-layer construction realizes 2.76 million pixels,
giving a beautifully detailed picture of exceptional fidelity—especially from
superior video sources such as high definition digital satellite/terrestrial
broadcasts.
