Full HD 3D Home Cinema Projector
PT-AE8000

3D Home Cinema Experience
Just Got Better than Ever
Advanced 3D dual-core processing engine
enables high-quality 3D and 2D projection.

High 2,400 lm of Brightness with the Advanced
Red-Rich Lamp
The new 220 W Red-Rich Lamp increases the luminous efficiency of the
projector to achieve brighter images, even in 3D viewing, with excellent
color purity. Able to produce a stunning brightness of 2,400 lm, the
PT-AE8000 unleashes the beauty of 2D/3D full-HD expression for view-
ing on various screen sizes. Cooling efficiency for example around the
polarization filters has been increased to realize the higher lumens.
Color purity is further increased by applying a special coating to the red
and green condenser lenses in order to trim the impurities from the
light after it is separated into the three primary colors.
Full-HD Optimized Optical System
To assure maximum clarity and sharpness in full-HD images, this
advanced optical system employs a full-HD-optimized lens unit com-
prising of 16 lens elements in 12 groups, including two large-diameter
aspherical lenses and two high-performance ED (extra-low dispersion)
lenses. Each lens is carefully aligned to assure a uniform focusing bal-
ance from the center to the edges of the screen. As a result, the
PT-AE8000 produces stunningly clear and beautiful images.
Up to 480 Hz Compatible LCD Panels
The PT-AE8000’s full-HD LCD panels provide bright images with high
aperture ratio. The panels are also designed for 480 Hz processing
capability for bright 3D image. These high-precision panels use
vertically aligned liquid crystal molecules with inorganic alignment
layers. When no voltage is applied, the molecules are aligned perpen-
dicular to the glass substrate, so there is minimal light leakage, pro-
viding higher contrast.
Pure Contrast Plates Deliver High 500,000:1 Contrast Ratio
The Pure Contrast Plates in the PT-AE8000 use a high-precision crys-
talline material that is carefully matched to the characteristics of the
LCD panels to effectively correct the passage of light exiting the pan-
els. This enables the projector to block unwanted light leakage and
successfully increases the dynamic range. It works together with the
Pure Color Filter Pro and Dynamic Iris Pro to achieve an astounding
contrast ratio of 500,000:1.
Pure Color Filter Pro for Rich, Vibrant Colors
The optical filter optimizes the light spectrum from the UHM projector
lamp, helping to produce deeper blacks while improving purity levels
in the three primary colors (red, green and blue). This advanced filter
system improves color purity to cover a range that extends from the
HDTV standard (Rec. 709 mode)*1to the color gamut used in digital
cinema*2. This gives images the deep, rich coloring that distinguishes
movie images.
Dynamic Iris Pro Adds Beauty to Both Dark and
Bright Scenes
This intelligent iris system works by analyzing the brightness level of
each image using a histogram, then adjusting the lamp power, iris and
gamma curve*3accordingly to create the ideal image. The adjustments
are made virtually frame by frame.
This helps the projector achieve a
wide dynamic range with swift
smoothness for added beauty in
both dark and bright scenes.
Smooth Screen Technology
Creates Film-Like Texture
While many LCD projectors suffer
from a “chicken wire” effect, Pan-
asonic’s pursuit of the highest
possible image quality has suc-
cessfully overcome this device
limitation through the incorpora-
tion of Smooth Screen technology.
This uses the double refraction
property of crystals to arrange
pixels on a screen with no gaps
between them.
Seven Picture Modes
For each 2D and 3D viewing, seven different picture modes (normal,
dynamic, Rec. 709, D-cinema, cinema 1, cinema 2 and game mode for
reduced frame delay) are provided.
Excellent Picture Quality
The PT-AE8000 and optional Panasonic active
3D Eyewear are finely tuned to achieve 3D
viewing with Hollywood-like quality.
Hollywood continues to produce and release 3D
movies that give us an entirely new level of dynamic
realism. The PT-AE8000 Full HD 3D
Home Cinema Projector was developed
according to the Panasonic philosophy
of providing images that mirror the
director’s artistic vision and intent—
right in your own home. The PT-AE8000
is designed from the ground up to
achieve higher basic 2D performance,
and packed with unique 3D features to
deliver the level of quality demanded by Hollywood
professionals. The key 3D projection technologies
were developed in collaboration with
Panasonic Hollywood Laboratory
(PHL) engineers, who have taken
key roles in establishing the industry
standards for 3D. This allows the
PT-AE8000 to deliver both stunning
2D images and a comfortable and
immersive 3D viewing experience
at home.

LCD Panels Driven at 480Hz and Original Overdrive
Technology for Bright 3D Image
The PT-AE8000 features 480Hz-driven LCD panels, which lengthen the
time that the shutter is open about 1.5 times the duration of a 240-Hz
drive system. Together with Panasonic’s original high-precision over-
drive technology, this improves the brightness of the images viewed
through 3D Eyewear, while at the same time minimizing crosstalk, or
double image seen as a result of the left image entering the right eye
and vice versa.
3D Motion Remaster Delivers Correct, Natural 3D Movement
This new technology solves the prob-
lem caused by a phenomenon called
the Mach-Dvorak effect, which
occurs in many systems during 3D
viewing. The active shutter 3D sys-
tem displays left-eye and right-eye
images alternately. This means that
left-eye and right-eye images that
were captured at the same instant
are shown with a time lag. During
this time lag, especially when watch-
ing a scene in which an object
moves quickly and horizontally
across the screen, the viewer’s brain
automatically speculates and forms
a image at a position that differs
from the actual shown image. This
results in incorrect depth perception
and makes the horizontal movement
appear unnatural. 3D Motion Remas-
ter technology achieves smoothly
moving 3D images by creating prop-
erly positioned images to compen-
sate for the time lag.
Dual Core Processing Engine
High-quality 2D image processing, including Frame Creation and Detail
Clarity Processor, can be enjoyed in 3D as well, with the incorporation
of the high-performance dual core processing engine.
Frame Creation 2 for Motion Blur Reduction in 3D/2D Viewing
A double-speed frame interpolation display for both 2D and 3D view-
ing, even during 2D-3D conversion, greatly improves the clarity of
motion images, reproducing sharp and clear images for fast moving
scenes in sports and action movies. For 24p signal input, four frames
are calculated and interpolated for each existing frame, to enable 5x
speed (120-Hz) display.
2D-3D Conversion
2D to 3D image conversion is possible, with five 3D effect modes to
select from.
A Whole New Level of 3D Viewing
Customization and Installation Flexibility
Lens Memory for 2D/3D Viewing
Up to six settings, in 2D or 3D viewing,
can be stored in the Lens Memory,
including zoom and focus positions for
projecting in the normal 16:9 or 4:3
image ratio, and wide cinema projec-
tion settings. These memories can be
recalled manually for 2D or 3D, or can
be set for automatic switching in 2D.
The projector is able to detect 2.35:1
and 16:9 sources and retrieve the
stored setting automatically. The Lens
Memory function lets you easily enjoy
images with different image ratios on a
wide 2.35:1 screen for an immersive
theater-like experience.
2x Optical Power Zoom/Focus and Wide Lens Shift Range
A 2x optical power zoom/focus lens and a lens shift function together
make it possible to project a 120-inch picture from as close as
3.6 meters (11 feet 10 inches) to the screen or as far as 7.2 meters
(23 feet 7 inches) away. In addition, the image can be shifted ±100%
vertically, and ±26% horizontally. This gives you outstanding setup flex-
ibility. If you choose to ceiling-mount the projector, you can zoom and
focus by remote control.
Waveform Monitor for Precise Calibration
With the PT-AE8000 you can view the waveforms on the screen and
adjust the settings both automatically and manually as you prefer.
Advanced Gamma Adjustment Function
The gamma curve can be flexibly controlled, allowing precise calibra-
tion according to the signal source and environment. Brightness (Y), R,
G and B can each be adjusted at any fifteen points. Adjustment point
positions can be shifted both horizontally and vertically to bring out
the desired gradation level. Adjustment is easy because the small
menu screen does not block the image.
Split Adjust Mode for Easy Picture Adjustment
You can freeze any scene you wish, and then make adjustments while
easily comparing the original image and the adjusted image side
by side.
Cinema Color Management Premium Enables Flexible Color
Control
This color correction system enables free color control in two different
modes. The Point Color Correction mode lets you pick a point in the
image and adjust that color without affecting the neighboring colors.
The Six Color Correction mode enables independent adjustment of red,
green, blue, cyan, magenta and yellow. Adjustment is possible for
either 2D or 3D viewing.

PT-AE8000 Full HD 3D Home Cinema Projector
Detail Clarity Processor 4 Gives Natural Clarity to Even the
Finest Details
This digital image processing circuit brings greater clarity and sharp-
ness to details embedded in the image. After analyzing the video sig-
nal frequency in each scene, the circuit optimizes the sharpness of
each part of the image based on the extracted information. The result-
ing images, 3D or 2D, have more natural, lifelike expression than
those of previous image-processing methods.
Advanced 3D Adjustment Functions
A variety of 3D viewing adjustments also provide a more comfortable
viewing experience at home. These include 3D Lens Memory, 3D zoom
and focus, 3D color management, and 3D keystone correction.
3D Viewing Monitor for Adjustment of Depth-of-Field
The projection size for viewing 3D images can be selected from among
9 different sizes, ranging from 40 inches to 200 inches diagonally.*4
The amount of parallax is optimized according to the projection size,
so comfortable, easy-to-view 3D images can be enjoyed at any size.
Either of three monitor styles can be selected.
3D Picture Balance with Waveform Monitor
The projector is able to show the right and left image side by side to
check if the two sides have the same colors. The difference may occur
due to poor content quality. With the
Waveform Monitor displayed, you
can adjust the contrast, brightness,
color and tint as desired, and up to
three adjustment settings can be
stored in memory for instant recall.
Precisely Tuned 3D Projection with Optional Panasonic
3D Eyewear
The PT-AE8000 uses frame sequential technology for 3D image
projection. When viewing 3D content, signals from the PT-AE8000’s
built-in infrared transmitter precisely control the left and right shut-
ters of the active 3D Eyewear. The built-in transmitter offers maximum
transmission distance of six meters (about 20 feet).*5For more range
up to ten meters (about 33 feet), an optional infrared transmitter,
ET-TRM110 is available for greater installation flexibility.
port Deep Color and the x.v.Color color space. Deep Color provides
10-bit (over 1.07 billion) and 12-bit (over 68.7 billion) color depths
for smooth gradation between colors, while x.v.Color compliance
reproduces natural, lifelike images.*6
 Fhe]hWccWXb['(LJh_]][h\eh7kjecWj[ZJ^[Wj[hI[jkf
Two 12V triggers are provided.*7Since the input and output can be
set independently (menu selectable), they can link flexibly with pow-
ered screens, room light
and powered curtains.
When combined with the
Lens Memory, they let
you create a truly classy
home theater.
VIERA Link for Easy Operation
The PT-AE8000 supports VIERA Link. If your home theater
system contains VIERA Link-ready equipment, projection
can be started by using only the remote control unit of the
PT-AE8000, regardless of whether the source is a Blu-ray Disc or a TV
program stored on an HD recorder. This eliminates the need for has-
sling with several remote controls.*8
Up to 5,000-Hour Lamp Replacement Cycle*9and
Simple Maintenance
Panasonic’s proprietary lamp drive system helps maintain lamp per-
formance, resulting in a up to 5,000-hour lamp replacement cycle. For
easy maintenance, you can replace the filter from the side and the
lamp from the top of the projector. The dust filter and lamp are easily
replaced even after the PT-AE8000 is installed on the ceiling.
Conventional sharpness control:
Sharpness is applied uniformly,
which can cause a halo or ring
effect.
Detail Clarity Processor 4: Signal
frequency is extracted realtime and
necessary sharpness is applied at varying
degrees for natural, lifelike images.
Mode 2: Simplified monitor. It is easy
and simple because only a small part
of the screen is blocked.
Mode 3: Positive parallax is indicated
by the red color, and negative parallax
by the blue color.
Mode 1: 3D Viewing Monitor ensures
comfortable 3D viewing. The area
between the two dotted lines is the
safety zone for the parallax. It makes
it possible to check and adjust the
amount of parallax in an image.
Ecology-conscious Design
Panasonic works from every angle to minimize environmental impact in the
product design, production and delivery processes, and in the performance
of the product during its life cycle. The PT-AE8000 reflects the following
ecological considerations.
 No halogenated flame retardants are used in the cabinet.
 Lead-free glass for the lens.
 Standby power consumption of only 0.08 W has been achieved.
 A sleep-timer that reduces wasteful power consumption.
 RoHS compliant.
