JVC NP5 Projector

4K-resolution D-ILA Projector

The JVC DLA-NP5B D-ILA home cinema projector features a 4K120p input to reproduce full 4K resolution (4096 x 2160 pixels) images. 4K120p input also makes the projector ideal for gaming when combined with Low Latency mode. Compatible with the latest HDR10+, HLG, and Frame Adapt HDR with Theatre optimiser, the projector is designed to present industry leading HDR performance.

The projector is driven by three 0.69” native 4K D-ILA devices, and a 17 element, 15 group all glass lens with 65mm diameter to project high resolution images to every corner of the screen with brightness as high as 1,900 lumens.

4K Native Resolution
Equipped with a refined 0.69″ native 4K D-ILA device and newly developed digital driver LSI for native 4K resolution. The latest three models feature an original native 0.69″ 4K D-ILA devices, which were first adopted on model DLA-Z1, which has been improved with process refinements on planarization and reflection efficiency to achieve higher contrast and brightness. Additionally, a dedicated driver LSI was also enhanced to simultaneously drive each of the three (R/G/B) native 4K D-ILA devices at high speed 120fps. As a result, a precise and smooth image projection unique to 4K native can be achieved with the combination of a new device and new driver LSI.

HDR10+ Support allows a choice for two dynamic tone mappings
When it comes to reproducing the rich video information of HDR content including the extended brightness range, BT.2020 wide colour gamut and 10bit gradation, rely on one of the new D-ILA projectors. New models support all HDR formats including HDR10 for Blu-ray and streaming, HLG for broadcasting and the latest HDR10+ signal format with dynamic metadata compatibility.

JVC projectors are compatible with the two dynamic tone mappings of HDR10+ and Frame Adapt HDR. HDR10+ contains the metadata of the producer’s intentions for each scene, Frame Adapt HDR instantly analyses the peak brightness in HDR10 content using an original algorithm. Ensuring you can watch any HDR content in optimal picture quality.

Frame Adapt HDR function
The Frame Adapt HDR function* enables reproduction of any HDR10 content dynamically and in high resolution.

The colour grading of HDR content varies, some HDR content is adjusted to the bright side and others to the dark side. Using JVC’s original algorithm, Frame Adapt HDR instantly analyses the peak brightness in HDR10 content frame-by-frame and in real time adjusts the projector to the optimum dynamic range. Additionally, the gamma processing accuracy of gradation performance has been improved dramatically from, 12bit to 18bit.

All of these advancements help to bring out deeper blacks in darker scenes and higher peaks in brighter scenes without losing colours. Reproducing images with smooth gradations that are closer to reality as seen by the human eye.

*From firmware version 3.10 and higher.

In the picture, scene 1 represents a dark scene, scene 2 a bright scene and scene 3 a combination of bright and dark.

4K120p input ideal for Low Latency Mode
As these projectors are equipped with 4K120p input, signal latency is infinitesimal, making it effective when displaying high frame rate gaming content on large screens. Additionally, Low Latency Mode reduces delay in displaying PC signals and games and improves response to the users’ rapid operations.

High quality, all glass lens

The DLA-NX9 is equipped with an 18 element, 16 group all glass lens featuring a full aluminium lens barrel. To project high resolution images to every corner of the screen, the 100mm diameter lens offers wide lens shift of ±100% vertically and ±43% horizontally. The projector also adopts five ED lenses that take into account differences in the R/G/B refractive index to reduce chromatic aberration and colour fringing when the lens’s shift kicks in to deliver precise reproduction of 8K resolution projection. The DLA-N7 and DLA-N5 models feature a 17 element, 15 group all glass lens with a 65mm diameter to project fully focused 4K native resolution to all corners of the screen.
