Big Pictures with Fewer Shadows

Share large 80–120-inch images in rooms of any size, from small huddle rooms to hybrid classrooms where installation space on the ceiling is limited. The compact ultra-short-throw design can deliver an 80-inch image from a distance of about 1 cm (1/3 in.)¹. Since the lens is forward of the presenter, shadowing and dazzling are reduced so everyone can communicate comfortably. The large picture and detailed WUXGA resolution make it ideal for displaying small text.

1 Value is the distance from the projector body to the wall.

Stylish Design Harmonizes with Your Space

The projector’s minimal screen offset makes it a practical choice for rooms with low ceilings, where it installs almost flush to the wall. Available in black or white, its integrated body has no protrusions to spoil a clean, elegant style that harmonizes with any interior design. Installed in an office, classroom, or museum, this unobtrusive projector fades from the group’s awareness so attention remains focused on the presentation.

Ultra-Quiet Design for Hybrid Spaces

CMZ50’s heat-resistant light source significantly reduces exhaust noise and unwanted distractions when people are seated close to the projector. Quiet running also improves the audibility of conversations during hybrid lessons and meetings by reducing background noise. In Quiet Mode, its operating noise is just 25 dB¹, about the same apparent loudness as rustling leaves. In fact, with a perceived loudness that is less than one third² that of a comparable lamp-based projector, CMZ50 keeps everyone alert and focused on the presentation.

1 34 dB in NORMAL/ECO Mode.

2 Based on a comparison between PT-CMZ50 (25 dB) and PT-TW381R (30 dB) in QUIET Mode. The human ear perceives changes in sound intensity on a logarithmic scale. The perceived difference in sound volume between the two products was calculated using the following formula: Perceived difference = 10 ^ [(dB1 - dB2) / 10].

Note	1 Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO/IEC 21118: 2020 international standards. Value is average of all products when shipped. 2 When [PICTURE MODE] is set to [DYNAMIC], [LIGHT POWER] is set to [NORMAL], and[SYSTEM DAYLIGHT VIEW] is set to [OFF]. 3 Around this time, light output will have decreased to approximately 50 % of its original level ([PICTURE MODE]: [DYNAMIC], [DYNAMIC CONTRAST] set to [2], temperature 30 °C (86 °F), elevation 700 m (2,297 ft) with 0.15 mg/m3 of particulate matter). Estimated time until light output declines to 50 % varies depending on environment. 4 Resolution decreases when using Digital Zoom Extender. Some screen-correction functions are not available when using this function, and range ofcorner adjustment is limited. 5 When Digital Zoom Extender is set to 80 %. 6 Supports signals up to 4K/30p. A signal with different resolution is converted to the number of display dots (1920 x 1200 dots). 7 Depending on the connected CEC command-compatible device, the link control may not operate normally. 8 Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO/IEC 21118: 2020 international standards. On-mode power consumption measured at 25 °C (77 °F) operating temperature at an altitude of 700 m (2,297 ft). 9 Filter cleaning cycle varies depending on environment. Filter can be washed and reused up to two times. Filter cleaning cycle: 20,000 hours (under dust conditions of 0.08 mg/m3), 10,000 hours (under dust conditions of 0.15 mg/m3). 10 Average value. May differ depending on the actual unit. 11 Light output is limited at operating temperatures higher than 30 °C (86 °F), and projectors cannot be operated at altitudes higher than 2,700 m (8,858 ft) above sea level. When optional AJ-WM50 Series wireless module is attached,operating temperature range becomes 0–40 °C (32–104 °F). 12 When using Presenter Light Software, images are projected with 1280 x 800 dots or 1024 x 768 dots onto the screen. Also, your PC display resolution may be forcibly changed, and audio playback disrupted orbecome noisy, while images and sound are being transmitted. *13 When using the Wireless Projector app, display resolution differs depending on your iOS/Android™ device and the display device. The maximum supported display resolution is WXGA (1280 x 800).
