D-ILA™PROJECTOR
DLA-G3010ZG
True SXGA in The World’s Smallest and Lightest Package

Ready for the future: Introducing JV ’s DLA-G3010ZG,
the world’s smallest and lightest projector with true SXGA capability
Over the next few years, demand for SXGA resolution is expected to increase rapidly.
In the near future, this high-resolution format is likely to account for half the display market,
making it the dominant display standard.
Clearly, then, SXGA capability is critical to meeting the image display demands of the future.
Now you can take advantage of true SXGA resolution without having to commit to a big,
expensive permanent projector installation. Thanks to JVC’s original 1PBS optical engine,
the high-resolution DLA-G3010ZG D-ILA™projector not only delivers full-quality SXGA pictures,
it’s also smaller and lighter than any other projector in its class —small enough to set up just about anywhere,
and light enough to move easily from room to room as required.
With its virtually unlimited information processing potential,
D-ILA technology is destined to become the premier display technology
for digital cinema and other high-end applications in the future.
This technology has already made our current D-ILA™device the leader in the market
for high-performance large-screen display projectors.
Now we are developing a new generation of D-ILA devices (0.7" SXGA+ device, 1.3" QXGA device, etc.)
that will pave the way for even more exciting applications in the future.

1,365 x 1,024 native resolution for true SXGA resolution without
compression plus UXGA compatibility
With extra-high resolution of up to 1,365 x 1,024 pixels, the DLA-G3010ZG
easily handles even the super-sharp clarity of an SXGA (1,280 x 1,024 pixels)
image. It reproduces the picture without the scaling or loss of quality typically
associated with projection of high-resolution computer graphics and CAD/CAM
images. With video resolution of 1000 TV lines, small text, characters, icons and
cursors are clearly legible even at the corners of the projected image.
Moreover, the DLA-
G3010ZG has input
capability up to
105 kHz, making it
compatible with
resolutions as high as
UXGA(1,600 x1,200).
“D-ILA™ Quality”—
natural, smooth image with optimized contrast
The continued advance of digital technologies means that more visual information is processed,
and more details have to be displayed. As a result, both desktop and notebook PCs are moving towards the SXGA
display standard, digital camera resolutions are increasing into the mega-pixel range, and high-quality video sources
like HDTV are making their way into many homes. With its true SXGA-based design, the DLA-G3010ZG can
accurately project images from any of these sources. And, with “Class B” classification, the DLA-G3010ZG is
completely suitable for home use. The ideal home theater projector, it is also fully compatible with
digital TV — 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i, making it the right choice for the future.
JVC’s original D-ILA™ technology for unsurpassed image quality
JVC’s D-ILA™(Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier) technology features a high-
density, reflective liquid crystal structure that provides you with today’s optimal
combination of brightness, resolution, contrast and color for the big screen.
Thanks to a 93% aperture ratio, it also provides the highest native resolution with
the least visible pixels, making images as smooth and natural as film.
ompatibility with the future
Technologies for enhanced image quality
The powerful image reproduction performance of the DLA-G3010ZG is enhanced by an array of unique JVC imaging
technologies
that assure the best possible results with any image source.
•Adaptive DPC (Digital Pixel Conversion) Technology
This optimizes image scaling to best match the D-ILA™’s pixels, eliminating the annoying jagged edges found with other digital
technologies. As a result, you can obtain smooth and natural images regardless of
the source resolution (up to 105 kHz).
•Digital Gamma Correction
With accurate color reproduction capability, this circuitry provides superior
color performance by ensuring accurate gray scale, from sheer black to
shining white. That’s critical for all your images, from subtle skin tones in home
theater screenings to the complex coloration of workstation graphics.
•Color Enhancement Technology
This compensates for color contours to eliminate blur for crisper and sharper video images.
•200 W UHP lamp
The superb 1,500 ANSI lumen image of the D-ILA™picture shines through even in a brightly lit room thanks to the
powerful new 200 W UHP lamp.

Installation is a snap. Setup is just a matter of
plug and play —align the blue line (optical axis) on
the unit vertically with the screen surface and you’re
ready to go. The quick alignment function
automatically sets up the projector’s
phase/tracking/position in a matter of seconds.
A cooling vent located on the front directs warm
exhaust forward, where it’s less likely to bother
anyone. Acoustic noise generation is minimal
—almost below the threshold of normal hearing.
The lamp and filter can be replaced from the front
so there’s no need to move or lift the projector.
And when you do need to move the projector,
the belt handle is provided for easy carrying.
Easy-to-use and user-friendly design
In order to incorporate the high
performance of its D-ILA™projection
technology into a compact unit that
can be installed anywhere, JVC
developed a completely new optical
system that uses only one PBS
(Polarized Beam Splitter). As a
result, the DLA-G3010ZG weighs
a mere 13.2 lbs. (6.0 kg). As easy to
move around as a notebook computer,
the DLA-G3010ZG can go anywhere,
anytime, assuring a top-quality,
high-impact presentation every time.

The D-ILA technology in projectors delivers
the best combination of brightness, resolution, contrast and colors.
JVChas developed a complete line of projectors using this unique D-ILA device as the core technology. The reflective design
ofthe chip combined with a high powered light source creates the first truly high performance
digitalprojector from every stand point with brightness currently up to
4000ANSI lumens.
Inherentin the design of the D-ILA device is a unique, vertically aligned (“homeotropic”) liquid crystal layer which delivers an
excellentcontrast ratio, theoretically as high as 2000:1 (for device itself). All JVC D-ILA projectors take advantage of this
designand provide a dynamic range of light from stunning blacks to brilliant whites unmatched by any other technology.
Allof the advantages of the D-ILA technology is further enhanced by countless innovations by JVC for video processing,
gammacontrol, pixel conversion and scaling which place JVC D-ILA projectors at the head of the class.
And the D-ILA technology is about projecting the future.
Whileleading the market in true high performance large screen display
projectorswith the current D-ILA device, this is only
thebeginning. With the technology’s unlimited potential to process more
information,JVC is developing new generation of D-ILA devices for exciting
applicationsfor the future.
Thenew 0.7" SXGA+ (1400 x 1050) device is to take advantage of higher
yieldand therefore lower cost while offering
ahigher resolution, and will be the key device for more affordable home
andgeneral presentation projectors.
