Beyond The Next Level: 
Welcome To The Future Of Image Projection
DLA-M5000SC/M5000L
D-ILAªPROJECTOR 
						

							D-ILAªÑ A Breakthrough In Projection Technology
The core of D-ILAª(Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier) projector device is a high-density
reflective type LCD able to project high-resolution images. With a homeotropic structure in
which the LCD elements are aligned vertically, the D-ILA
ªdevice produces extra-bright,
high-contrast images ideal for big-screen projection applications. 
The key to more affordable home and general presentation projectors, the new 0.7 S-XGA+
(1,400 x 1,050) device is able to take advantage of higher yield, allowing it to lower cost
while offering a higher resolution.
Also coming soon is the industry leading Q-XGA (2,048 x 1,536) device. Offering full
HDTV (1080i) compatibility without compression, as well as D-ILA
ªÕs hallmark crystal clear
picture quality, Q-XGA is destined to become the premier display technology for digital cin-
ema and other high-end applications.
Proven D-ILAªPerformance, An Incredible Super C
5000ANSI Lumens
True
For years, multimedia projection systems have existed in the shadow of the superior picture quality of 
traditional film projectors. No more. The future of projection is here. Now JVC introduces a pair of 
super-charged digital graphics/video projectors that bring you performance thatÕs truly ahead of its time. YouÕll
get bright, super-sharp, high-resolution S-XGA images on screens up to 50 ft (15 m)
across (measured diagonally). And thanks to JVCÕs breakthrough
D-ILA
ª(Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier) and 
unprecedented ultra-high brightness of 5000 ANSI lumens,
those images easily rival the intensity and brilliance of a film
projector. In fact, with the DLA-M5000SCÕs industry-leading
contrast ratio of 1000:1, youÕll get clear, dead-sharp images
even in a large, brightly lit room. Just as remarkable is the
fact that all of that power and brilliance is packed into a
design that installs easily just about anywhere and can be
stacked to deliver bigger, brighter images to suit any size venue. 
						

							D-ILAªtechnology Ñ the secrets of superior quality
¥ Higher brightness and resolution
LCD panels are composed of a dense array of pixels which are illuminated individually to produce patterns
and images. In conventional ÒtransmissiveÓ LCD panels, the driving transistor which activates the pixels is
mounted on the same surface as the pixels, so limiting the inherent degree of brightness and resolution.
With JVCÕs D-ILA
ªdevice, on the other hand, the driving IC substrate is located behind the liquid crystal
layer, so making it possible to achieve much higher levels of brightness and resolution than conventional
devices.

Large-screen projection with compact design
The D-ILAªÕs high light efficiency maximizes the light output power for large screen projection without
requiring a large, bulky projection unit. In combination with an advanced system that makes it possible to
write the input signal directly on the D-ILA
ªdevice in the form of an electric signal, this super-efficient 
technology has enabled us to simplify the projectorÕs design and incorporate small 0.9Ó devices. The result
is outstanding projection power in a remarkably compact, lightweight unit. 
Sharp, noiseless image
By minimizing the space between pixels, the D-ILAªÕs high-density structure and extra-high aperture ratio
of 93% effectively eliminate stripe noise and producing crisp, clear images from edge to edge with well-
defined details and vivid, true-to-life color. 
Higher contrast
Another advantage of the D-ILAªdevice is the vertical alignment (ÒhomeotropicÓ structure) of the liquid
crystal layer. This ensures that projected images have extra high contrast and makes it possible to 
accurately reproduce even very subtle gradation differences between the lighter and darker parts of the
projected image. 
1000 :1Super Contrast Ratio 
						

							True S-XGA Resolution
When projected onto a large-size screen, the DLA-M5000SC/LÕs high-density
LCD panels provide true S-XGA resolution without scaling or loss of quality.
With a total of 4,193,280 image dots, even the small characters and icons 
typical of computer displays can be reproduced clearly. This makes the 
DLA-M5000SC/L the perfect choice for projection of high-resolution 3D 
graphics or detailed CAD images.
Resizing Function with Adaptive DPC Circuitry
You may not always want or need to project S-XGA images. To ensure that the
DLA-M5000SC/L is versatile enough to meet your projection requirements, we
have also included our innovative Adaptive DPC (Digital Pixel Conversion) 
circuitry. This enables the D-ILA
ªprojector to project XGA (1024 x 768 
pixels), S-VGA (800 x 600 pixel), and VGA (640 x 480 pixels), as well as true
S-XGA (1365 x 1024 pixels). Optimum pixel conversion is performed by the
Adaptive DPC according to the characteristics of the source signal to ensure a
clear, undistorted image. 
Xenon Lamp for Natural Color Reproduction
The powerful 1.6kW Xenon lamp incorporated in the DLA-M5000SC/L assures
true color reproduction and natural images Ñ with quality comparable to those
seen in movie theaters. Unlike the metal halide lamps used in 
conventional projectors, which tend to produce colors with a bluish tinge, the
Xenon lamp accurately reproduces the original image colors, assuring 
natural, unmediated color reproduction.
High-Brightness 5000 ANSI Lumens
The D-ILAªÕs  high light efficiency is supported by a powerful 1.6kW Xenon
lamp enables the DLA-M5000SC/L to generate an amazing 5000 ANSI lumens
of brightness. This powerful light output makes it possible to project clear,
bright, highly visible images even in a bright room. Exclusive light condensing
technology is also incorporated which increases the ratio of peripheral light to
80%, ensuring uniform brightness in all areas of the screen.

10-Bit Digital Gamma Correction
For more accurate gray scale reproduction, the DLA-M5000SC/L features newly
developed 10-Bit Digital Gamma Correction circuitry able to precisely repro-
duce even minor tone differences. In combination with the natural emission
spectrum of the Xenon lamp, this further enhances the natural characteristics of
the projected color.
When the number of pixels used in the image data being projected differs from the
built-in device, you can use either the Window projection or Resizing 
projection method.

1000:1 Super Contrast Ratio (DLA-M5000SC)
Contrast is what brings out the details and when it comes to contrast, nothing
compares to JVCÕs DLA-M5000SC. Boasting a super high contrast ratio of
1000:1, this one-of-a-kind projector brings to life even the tiny details that
would normally be lost in the darker portions of the picture. The result is
unprecedented depth that produces images so realistic they literally jump off
the screen.

media applications and signal formats, the DLA-
M5000SC/LÕs sync frequency covers 15 to 82kHz (hori-
zontal) and 50 to 78Hz (vertical). Two PC inputs are
provided so you can simultaneously input signals from
two different computers and switch between them as
required.
600 Large-Screen Projection
Thanks to its super-high brightness and advanced D-ILAªdevice, the 
DLA-M5000SC/L can project bright, high-contrast images onto full-size theater-
scale screens. At the 4:3 aspect ratio, possible screen sizes (diagonal) range from
60Ó Ð 300Ó (recommended), all the way up to 600Ó (max.).*
¥ Up/Down shift (view from the side)
Note: The shift range is narrowed when the up/down and left/right shift are engaged simultaneously.
Shift percentage estimates are based on the screen height which is regarded as 100%.
¥ Left/Right shift (view from the top)
Stackable Design For Enhanced Projection Power
For maximum versatility, the DLA-M5000SC/L has been designed for easy
integration into a stacked configuration. By mounting one projector on top of
another projector, you can project a combined image onto a single screen,
allowing you to achieve even
higher levels of brightness
than is possible with a single
projector. This makes the
DLA-M5000SC/L suitable for
use even in very large rooms
with bright ambient light such
as event halls.
The projectorÕs base
can easily be attached
to the top panel of
another unit.
