Our take on the Panasonic PT-VMZ72 WUXGA Projector

The Panasonic PT-VMZ72 is a 7,300-lumen LCD laser projector with native WUXGA (1920x1200) resolution. Its laser light source is rated up to 20,000 hours with no lamp changes, and a 1.6x optical zoom plus wide horizontal and vertical lens shift make it easy to place in a room. It suits golf simulator bays, large meeting rooms and classrooms where ambient light is present. Against lamp-based WUXGA projectors it offers far longer service life and higher brightness; against 1080p models it adds 20% more vertical pixels and a sharper fit for 16:10 screens.

Questions and answers

Is 7,300 lumens enough for a golf simulator with lights on?: Yes. That output is aimed at daylight-capable sim rooms and large lit spaces. Dimming room lights still improves contrast and black levels.
What is the difference between WUXGA and 1080p here?: WUXGA is 1920x1200, which adds 20% more vertical pixels than 1080p. That fits 16:10 screens and gives more height for simulator software and presentations.
How long does the laser last?: Panasonic rates the laser light source up to 20,000 hours. There is no bulb to replace, so maintenance is mainly filter cleaning.
How far back does it need to be mounted?: The throw ratio is 1.09 to 1.77 with 1.6x optical zoom. A 16:10 image about 10 feet wide needs roughly 11 to 18 feet of throw, so check your bay depth.
Does it have lens shift for off-center mounting?: Yes. It offers generous horizontal and vertical lens shift, so the projector can sit off-axis from the screen without keystone distortion.
What comes in the box?: The projector, a power cable, a remote and manufacturer documentation. Cables and a mount are not included.
Where is the Panasonic PT-VMZ72 WUXGA Projector cheapest?: At Newegg, for $4,428.99, 44% off, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Panasonic PT-VMZ72 WUXGA Projector?: 4 stores we checked sell it, including Newegg, Best Buy, Rain or Shine Golf, Golf2U.
