Product Details

Panasonic PT-AX200U White Home Theater Projector, Model PTAX200

The PT-AX200 is ideal for watching sports events or playing video games in daylight conditions and surely for viewing movies in a dark room. Powerful 2,000-lumen brightness and new Light Harmonizer 2 technology make it easy for people to enjoy vibrant, dynamic images even if they don't have a special theater room. Panasonic's advanced technologies improve color reproduction accuracy in movies, to deliver images with a refined "Hollywood picture quality," making this projector ideal as the heart of a home cinema system.

Features:

  • 2,000-Lumen Brightness -- Brightest in its Class
    Panasonic developed an extremely powerful lamp to realize an outstanding brightness of 2,000 lumens, brightest in its class
  • Light Harmonizer 2 Brings Crisp Picture in Various Lightings
    Together with the 2,000-lumens brightness, Panasonic's Light Harmonizer 2 technology produces vivid and easy to see images even in the kind of bright lighting that makes images from other projectors look whitish, faded or lacking in detail. In addition, it has a built-in ambient light sensor (ALS) that measures the amount of light in your room to optimize the picture quality at different lighting conditions. Light Harmonizer 2 circuit not only adjusts the gamma curve, but also controls iris setting, lamp power, and picture sharpness to maintain easy, comfortable viewing at all times
  • Game Mode for Stress-Free Playing
    The PT-AX200 features a "Game" mode that improves signal processing for better response, allowing you to play games with minimal stress. It also reveals gradation in saturated areas to show detail that are otherwise lost in very dark areas
  • Cinema 1 Mode Offers Hollywood Picture Quality
    Panasonic worked with experts in Hollywood -- the movie capital of the world -- to create the ideal image reproduction for viewing movies. This allows the PT-AX200 to deliver true Hollywood picture quality, with images that faithfully express the director's artistic intent
  • Pure Color Filter
    The Pure Color Filter was born from Panasonic's pursuit of optical technology that delivers true Hollywood picture quality. The light spectrum is adjusted to produce a level of light that maximizes the performance of the LCD panels, which expands the color range and produces truer blacks
  • Smooth Screen Technology
    Developed exclusively by Panasonic, this effectively reduces the black lines between pixels that mar picture quality. The high definition picture of the PT-AX200 is remarkably smooth and film-like, while remaining amazingly sharp and detailed
  • Dynamic Iris
    Dynamic Iris has been refined to provide deeper, richer blacks needed for true image reproduction with stunning smoothness. This technology adjusts the lamp power, iris, and gamma curve according to data obtained from frame-by-frame histogram analysis of the image brightness level
  • Advanced Dynamic Sharpness Control
    The new Advanced Dynamic Sharpness Control determines image areas that need to be sharpened at varying degrees by examining small changes in brightness levels within the image. This greatly reduces noise amplification and delivers clear and natural looking images

Primary use: Personal
Pros: Quiet, Durable, Bright, Lightweight, Long Lasting, Adjustable
Describe Yourself: Tech Savvy
I replaced my PT-AE700 with this projector and was blown away. It is absolutely the best deal going. I highly recommend this projector and this company. It was easy to install and picture quality is awesome. I have it in a theater room with a 110" screen. Don't let the price fool you. The ajustable lens is a real plus. Get it!

Awesome projector from a good retailer
By asdf from Phoenix, AZ on 12/21/2009.
Describe Yourself: Gearhead
Best Uses: Hotel Room Gaming, Den
Pros: Lightweight, Adjustable, Bright, Quiet
Primary use: Personal
Cons: Short lamp life
Pros: This projector is the one to get if you are a gamer who lives in hotels like I do. With my PS3 and the projector game mode I am one fraggin dude. This baby is bright and the colors are gorgeous. Cons: The lamp life is a bit shorter than most projectors in its class and more expensive to replace. So far so good but I have heard rumors the quality of the picture goes down very quickly once the lamp is on the backend of its life.
Excellent Projector
By Nimbus from Dallas, Texas on 09/29/2009.
Pros: Adjustable, Durable, Bright, Long Lasting, Lightweight, Quiet
Best Uses: Outdoor Poolside, Den
Primary use: Personal
Describe Yourself: Tech Savvy
I am very satisfied with this Panasonic projector. After much research and deliberation, this system offers the most flexibility, brightness, and resolution for the price. I have enjoyed using the projector on a homemade screen out by my swimming pool. The projector's lamp is bright enough to fill a 6'x10' screen with a bright cinematic picture, even outside with significant ambient landscape lighting. Color accuracy is good and the HD upconversion is absolutely stunning. This is a very flexible system for people who want to place the projector very far or near the screen.
Awesome

Awesome Picture Even During Daylight [..
By LT from Houston, TX on 05/5/2009.
Pros: Bright, Quiet, Adjustable, Easy Install
Best Uses: Den
Cons: None So Far
Primary use: Personal
Describe Yourself: Tech Savvy
I have owned this projector since November of 2008. This is the first projector I have purchased, so needless to say I have did a ton of research since you can't just run down to Best Buy and compare models side by side. I use this projector in a multi-purpose fashion, meaning it is used for everything from the Sunday afternoon Football game, to Wii/Playstation, and Blu Ray movies. Even in the middle of the day in a room with three 3x6 windows with only 2" slat blinds covering them, I can get enjoyment from anything projected. Wait till the evening and pop a movie in and the picture is awesome. The blacks are very good, and the brightness can't be beat. This is paired with a 106" Elite screen and can't be happier. I don't know how much would be gained by spending the extra cash on a Stewart screen or going to 1080p projector. For under a grand you absolutely positively can't go wrong.
panasonic pt-ax200u projector
By Jime the Runner from Klamath Falls, OR on 01/26/2009.
Describe Yourself: Casual User
Cons: Is kinda large
Best Uses: Movies, Home
Pros: Powerful, Good Focus, Sharp Picture, Easy To Set Up
The picture is great, it isbetter than I imagined it would be. You still get a good picture with all of the lights on. With blue-ray I don't see why anyone would buy a TV. I have an 8 foot by 5 foot screen. Much larger than any tv. and the picture is phenomenal.
Excellent recommendation from our son
By Chicago boy from Chicago, IL. on 01/20/2009.
Describe Yourself: Casual User
Pros: Good Focus, Powerful, Lightweight, Sharp Picture, Easy To Set Up
Best Uses: Large Rooms, Movies, Television, Home
We were greatly impressed with the picture when we first saw it with our son. After checking the specification and price with other models we purchased it. It is a very good picture and excellent for its price. I would recommend it for anyone. We found it a great alternative to a TV. A smaller box but with a much bigger picture.
A Great Toy...
By Farid from New York, NY on 04/20/2008.
Pros: Durable, Good Focus, Lightweight, Sharp Picture, Powerful, Easy To Set Up
Best Uses: Home, Movies
How long have you owned it: One-to-three months
Describe Yourself: Practical
I love it.
Amazing performance!
By Robek2049 from Doylestown, PA on 02/18/2008.
How long have you owned it: A month or less
Best Uses: Movies, Smaller Rooms, Home, Television
Pros: Powerful, Good Focus, Durable, True HD experience, Sharp Picture, Easy To Set Up
Describe Yourself: Tech Savvy, Professional, Gearhead
This projector blows other projectors to shame, and it is comparable to projctors that cost in ten thousands! I took the online professional ratings into consideration before purchasing this umit. It lives up to the crytics. I am very detailed, and tech savvy when it comes to image quality, and a solid, well made, sturdy unit. This projector will show you true HD, and you swear it is as good as watching a film in a movey theater. No pixels seen, supports 1080p, and looks just as good as a true 1080p projector that costs thousands more. Bottom line, you cannot get a better product for that money, not even plasma, lcd will compare to the quality, and picture size, it is the brightest in its class (Believe me you need that)
