The DLA-NZ700 and the DLA-NZ500 are the world’s smallest¹ native 4K projectors. This was achieved by redesigning almost everything from the optical unit to the lens and circuit board and equipping them with a third-generation² 0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA device with enhanced screen uniformity, and a high-efficiency BLU-Escent Laser light source for exceptional contrast, superior resolution, and high brightness. They are equipped with second-generation Frame Adapt HDR technology, equivalent to the higher-end models, which realize high-quality HDR images, and Vivid mode, which reproduces SDR content in rich colors. The entire D-ILA lineup is equipped with a laser light source, allowing you to experience full-scale high-definition images in a compact design.

Volume Reduction

The JVC DLA-NZ500 achieves remarkable volume reduction, making it one of the smallest native 4K projectors on the market. By strategically redesigning its internal components and layout, the DLA-NZ500 reduces its physical footprint by 35% compared to previous models. This compact design also offers greater flexibility in installation.

Re-design of Air Intake and Exhaust

The DLA-NZ500 features a cutting-edge re-design of its air intake and exhaust systems. By relocating the exhaust to the rear, JVC has effectively minimized any potential impact on the projection screen while optimizing airflow. This innovative approach ensures efficient cooling of internal components, maintaining optimal performance during extended use.

Third-generation 0.69-inch Native 4K D-ILA Device Enhances Video Quality

The JVC DLA-NZ500 is equipped with a third-generation 0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA device, which significantly enhances video quality. This advanced device improves black detail and achieves an impressive native contrast ratio of 40,000:1, ensuring deeper blacks and more vibrant colors.

High Native Contrast

The JVC DLA-NZ500 boasts a high native contrast ratio of 40,000:1, delivering stunning depth and clarity in every scene. This exceptional contrast ratio enhances the distinction between light and dark areas, ensuring that even the finest details are visible in shadowy scenes. This high native contrast, combined with advanced D-ILA technology, allows for a more dynamic and presentation.

A True Cinematic Experience

With its native 4K resolution and advanced D-ILA technology, this projector provides breathtakingly sharp and detailed images that rival those of professional theaters. The high native contrast ratio of 40,000:1 enhances the depth and richness of every frame, while the vibrant color reproduction ensures that films look as intended by their creators. Combined with features like Frame Adapt HDR technology, the DLA-NZ500 seamlessly adapts to various HDR content, bringing out the best in every scene. Whether you're watching the latest blockbuster or enjoying classic films, this projector transforms your viewing experience into an immersive journey that captivates the senses.

Key Features

1. New Design Achieves the World’s Smallest Native 4K Projector Size

• Components Redesigned. The optical unit, lens, and circuit board have all been redesigned to achieve the world’s smallest native 4K projector.
• There has been a 35% volume reduction compared to the previous DLA-NZ7, while still incorporating a laser light source and native 4K D-ILA device.
• Placing the heat source exhaust at the rear eliminates the potential impact on the projection screen, providing more flexibility for installation.
• Less plastic, reducing transportation costs and increasing environmental friendliness.

2. Third-generation 0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA device enhances video quality

• The 0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA device has advanced to the third generation to enhance black details.
• DLA-NZ700 achieves 80,000:1 native contrast by simultaneously improving alignment control and pixel flatness (40,000:1 for DLA-NZ500).
• Improved brightness uniformity across the entire screen delivers beautiful image quality to every corner.

3. High Brightness and Long Life by BLU-Escent Laser Light Source Technology

• JVC’s proprietary Blu-Escent technology uses a blue laser diode to achieve high brightness: 2,300 lm for DLA-NZ700 and 2,000 lm for DLA-NZ500. Both models offer approximately 20,000 hours of laser life.
• DLA-NZ700 delivers two times the brightness per watt compared with the first BLU-Escent-equipped model, DLA-Z1 (released in 2017 with 3,000 lm).
• The laser light source eliminates harmful substances found in lamp-based light sources.

4. Newly designed fully motorized 4K lens for high resolution and installation flexibility

• A newly designed large aperture (80 mm, 11 groups, 15 lenses) 4K-compatible lens provides full native 4K D-ILA resolution to every corner of the screen.
• Fully electric (Zoom, Focus, Shift) with 70% vertical and 28% horizontal shifts for easy installation.
• Lens memory function enables convenient use on cinemascope-sized screens.

5. Features “Frame Adapt HDR Generation 2” for optimal HDR content reproduction

• Frame Adapt HDR Generation 2 analyzes the maximum brightness of each frame in HDR10 content, enabling real-time tone mapping for an optimal dynamic range.
• Deep Black Tone Control maximizes the dynamic range of the native 4K D-ILA device, enhancing the expression of dark areas with greater contrast.
• HDR level is automatically detected based on Max Display Mastering Luminance (DML), providing optimal brightness.

6. Vivid Picture Mode for SDR content in rich colors

Vivid Picture Mode is a standard dynamic range (SDR) mode that reproduces content in bright, rich colors, ideal for popular SDR content like animation.

7. Dynamic laser light source control for images closer to human perception

• JVC’s BLU-Escent technology uses laser diodes for instantaneous light output control, reducing delay compared to conventional apertures.
• Dynamic contrast reaches ∞:1 in all-black scenes.
• 101-step luminance control enables brightness adjustments based on indoor conditions.
• Various operation modes use the same control algorithm as the higher-end models.

8. FILMMAKER MODE™ to recreate the creator’s original intent

FILMMAKER MODE, developed by UHD Alliance, reproduces movies to the director’s standards. It turns off specific processing controls and sets color temperature to D65 (6500 K), ideal for true master-quality viewing.

9. Cinema filters for a wide color gamut equivalent to DCI-P3

The CINEMA FILTER supports the wide color gamut of DCI-P3 film standards, providing vibrant HDR images, including UHD Blu-ray, with rich color gradations in scenes like skies, seas, and foliage (DLA-NZ700 only).

Other features

• Ultra-High Contrast Optics ensure vivid, clear images.
• Redesigned GUI for quick access to frequently used functions.
• ISF-certified for high video quality standards.
• Installation Mode function stores up to five installation settings for lens memory, pixel adjustments, and screen masks.
• Auto Calibration* optimizes essential image elements, including color balance, gamma, and color tracking, using an external sensor and proprietary software.
• Screen Adjust Mode compensates for color imbalances due to screen characteristics.
