 FULL HIGH-DEFINITION RESOLUTION – 1080p 
Not only is it full HD (1920 x 1080), the PLV-1080HD achieves deep, rich, 
and very importantly, accurate color.  This is automatically accomplished 
thanks to SANYO’s exclusive TopazReal HD Technology, a 3D color 
management system that addresses color phase and color level to obtain 
perfect color reproduction.  The PLV-1080HD’s color management system 
can generate a total of approximately 216 billion possible color 
combinations.  This new color management system was designed to 
optimize the potential of deep color from either of the projector’s two HDMI 
inputs. 
 
LENS MAXIMIZATION OF IMAGE DETAIL 
Rated at 1200 lumens, the PLV-1080HD is capable of an incredible 
10,000:1 contrast ratio for superlative black levels, even in ambient light. 
Plus it has a newly-developed, high-efficiency lens that maximizes image 
details for exceptional optical performance.  
ADVANCED LENS SHIFT FOR VARIOUS ROOM ENVIRONMENTS 
The PLV-1080HD is outfitted with the industry’s most advanced lens 
shifting function. When coupled with the projector’s short throw capability 
and 2x zoom, the PLV-1080HD can create a large screen image in any 
size room and from virtually any location. The lens shifting function allows 
wide-range shifting up or down to three screen sizes and left to right to 
two screen sizes. The throw design of the PLV-1080HD, which is capable 
of projecting a 100-inch diagonal image from 10 to 20 feet away, makes it 
extremely suitable for small to mid-size home theaters. 
VIRTUALLY SILENT FAN DESIGN 
A 1200 lumen projector generates a tremendous amount of heat and 
requires a high quality fan to ensure proper operation. At this level of 
brightness, the fan is ‘on’ most of the time and the noise can be extremely 
loud and disruptive, especially in smaller home theaters where the 
projector and the audience are in the same vicinity. To promote greater 
enjoyment of the film and to reduce noise levels during quiet passages of 
a film, the PLV-1080HD is equipped with the industry’s quietest fan, a 
large aperture, low noise Sirocco cooling fan that never rises above 21dB 
in the economy mode.
