We decided to try a couple of these machines for some Point-of-Sale jobs we had. A larger 3-chip machine was not suitable but a Full-HD image was required. The 4000 lumen Panasonic DZ-570 proved to be a great little machine and continues to silently work hard for us. as a 1-Chip DLP machine it’s got a great contrast ratio and is practically silent. The machine can also be rigged vertically which is usually a feature only found on higher end machines. Please note this machine has a fixed 1.45-2.98 lens. This is a great zoom range but not for every install.
