Improved contrast for the most natural images
At the heart of the JVC DLA-NZ800 projector is the 3rd Generation 4K D-ILA device. With improved alignment control of the liquid crystals and enhanced image pixels, contrast is improved by 25%. This means that you get to enjoy unparalleled levels of black, with a depth of image that’s closer than ever to what the human eye sees.

New BLU-Escent laser for exceptional brightness
It’s not just the contrast that’s improved with this latest JVC projector, it’s the brightness, too. The latest BLU-Escent laser helps increase the peak brightness to 2700 lumens, bringing images to life and improving the picture definition in ambient lighting conditions. It also offers enhanced longevity, letting you enjoy your projector for longer.

Input an 8K60p or 4K120p signal
For the ultimate in movies and gaming, the JVC DLA-NZ800 accepts an 8K60p or 4K120p signal. Processing this huge amount of data is no easy task and takes a processor of exceptional power. The end result is spectacular, with greatly enhanced detail and depth of image when working in conjunction with the Gen 2 8K/e-shiftX technology.

8K enhanced viewing through Gen 2 e-shiftX
JVC's unique Gen 2 e-shiftX technology virtually doubles resolution in the vertical and horizontal directions by shifting pixels to produce 8K resolution from a native or lower resolution signal. It uses Multiple Pixel Control (MPC) image processing, for even greater clarity through more accurate diagonal detection. The latest Gen 2 version features improved 8K scaling, improving sharpness and detail across a wide range of sources.

All-glass lens - High quality 17-element lens
For the crispest and most focused image, this JVC projector uses a 17-element, 15-group, all-glass lens with aluminium barrel. The multi-element lens ensures the crispest 8K image resolution, right across the screen.

Flexible lens shift for ease of installation and fine-tuning
Lens shift lets you adjust the projection beam once installation has been completed. Physically being able to move the lens gives the ideal picture alignment without affecting the quality. With this JVC, you get a flexible +/- 80% vertical lens shift and +/-34% horizontal.

Supports HDR10+ and Gen 2 Frame Adapt HDR
HDR10+ offers scene-by-scene HDR mastering for the truest, most accurate HDR picture technology. Each scene is optimised, meaning the maximum amount of detail is shown – even in the brightest or darkest moments. Frame Adapt HDR instantly analyses the peak brightness in HDR10 content, optimising the dynamic contrast. Now in its second generation, the latest Frame Adapt features a Deep Black function that helps create even greater image depth.

See the true picture, with Filmmaker Mode
Filmmaker Mode lets you experience the cinematic vision, exactly as the director intended. Overriding the projector’s own motion and picture processing, Filmmaker Mode presents the correct aspect ratio, colour and frame rate – just as the filmmakers intended.

4K120p input with Low Latency Mode for improved gaming
Playing 4K/HDR games on the big screen offers the ultimate thrill. The DLA-NZ800 offers a low latency mode that delivers a significant reduction in frame delay. This gives you faster response times for instant action. 4K120p input compatibility means high frame rate compatibility for incredible smoothness and natural gameplay.

Motion Enhance – Blur Reduction Technology
Working in conjunction with Clear Motion Drive, Motion Enhance technology minimises motion blur significantly by optimizing the drive of the D-ILA device. Motion Enhance is also compatible with 4K and 3D signals to give a smooth and detailed image for a variety of scenes.

Take your home entertainment to the next level, with the JVC DLA-NZ800.

Gen2 8K/e-shiftX Realizes
Remarkable 8K Resolution Display

JVC’s proprietary 8K/e-shiftX, which is a combination of “e-shift technology” – a high-resolution display technology that doubles the resolution by shifting a pixel by 0.5 pixels in four directions up, down, left, and right – and “0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA devices” has made significant progress as the second generation 8K/e-shiftX. The latest version features JVC's newest 8K scaling engine that drastically improves the projector’s sharpness and detail across a wide range of content, including 8K (8192 x 4320 pixels) sources.

Gen2 Frame Adapt HDR Function for
Brighter and More Colorful HDR Images

The Frame Adapt HDR function, which uses a proprietary algorithm to instantaneously analyze the maximum brightness of any HDR10 content per scene or per frame and perform real-time tone mapping to optimal dynamic range for video projection, has evolved into the second generation (Gen2). The algorithm for tone mapping has been fully reexamined to achieve HDR images with higher definition. Furthermore, the proprietary algorithm for tone curve selection has also been improved to reproduce HDR images that are brighter, more colorful and have a wider dynamic range.

Exceptional Brightness and Longevity with
BLU-Escent Laser

Another essential aspect of projectors lies in their light source. The DLA-NZ series adopts JVC’s original laser light source “BLU-Escent Laser” to achieve exceptional peak brightness of 3,300 lumens on the DLA-NZ900 and 2,700 lumens on the DLA-NZ800, both with longevity of 20,000 hours. When compared to the first-generation laser projector*, the projectors’ brightness per effective wattage has improved 1.9-fold, which, as a result, also contributes to saving power through improved power efficiency.

Unparalleled Black Level and High Luminance Deliver Images Brimming with Reality

The new D-ILA projector boasts the industry’s highest native contrast with the Gen3 0.69-inch 4K D-ILA device and wire-grid optical engine, however in combination with the dynamic laser light control, which analyzes the incoming video signal to automatically control the amount of outgoing laser light, a dynamic contrast level of ∞:1 (infinity to 1) can be achieved in scenes with pitch blackness by completely shutting off the light source. As a result, images brimming with reality that are closer to human perception can be produced. Likewise, the new algorithm enables laser control with greater precision to meet the user’s preferences. 

HDR Drastically Improves Expressive Power of Images

When it comes to reproducing the rich video information of HDR content, including the extended brightness range, BT.2020 wide color gamut and 10-bit gradation, rely on the new D-ILA projectors. Both models support all HDR formats including HDR10 for Blu-ray and streaming, HLG for broadcasting, and the HDR10+ with dynamic metadata compatibility. The projectors’ improvements for higher brightness and contrast have helped to achieve a wider dynamic range, allowing users to enjoy an immersive experience with HDR images full of reality.

8K60p Input for Ultra-high Res 8K Content.
4K120p Input for Games and More.

This D-ILA models support a variety of inputs including full 48Gbps 8K60p. By adopting LSIs developed with the latest technology, it is now possible to process four times the amount of information from input to D-ILA device instantly and correctly display 8K signals. As a result, users can enjoy stable high-quality 8K images at all times. Also, using 4K120p input with the Low Latency Mode further improves response to the player’s rapid operations, making it effective for displaying high frame-rate gaming content on large screens.
