1400 x 1050 Pixels

High resolution. Natural color reproduction. Home Theater is better than ever.
When it comes to video resolution, more pixels means a clearer image. JVC's DLA SX-21 projects an incredible 4.5 million pixels that converge onto your screen to produce the most stunning, most accurate and highest resolution images possible. It's all due to JVC's exclusive D-ILA chip technology, found in projectors that Hollywood executives use for screening and critical color analysis. The SX-21's three D-ILA chips pump out rich color and high contrast without the "screen door" and rainbow effects that plague other projectors. The DLA-SX21 delivers clarity and high resolution that was previously available only for the highest end, professional theaters. This clarity and high resolution can now be the foundation for your state-of-the-art home theater. The SX21 is a lot more than you'd expect from a home theatre projector, but everything you'd expect from JVC.

High performance video/cinema projection
Original JVC DIST (Digital Image Scaling Technology)
JVCs original DIST technology consists of IP conversion, pixel density conversion and enhancer technology. Together these technologies ensure full correspondence with most DTV format signals, as well as with conventional NTSC/PAL/SECAM signals. Input signals are converted to SXGA plus resolution with reduced flicker and smear.
720p, 1080i (60, 50), 1080p (24, 25, 30) , 1080p (24sF, 25sF, 30sF), HDTV format compatibility
To ensure compatibility with DTV signals, the DLA-SX21 accepts analog signals in the 720p, 1080i, 1080p and HDTV formats.

High contrast of 800:1

With extra-high contrast ratio of 800:1, the DLA-SX21 projects images with sharp details, crisp edges and great depth. Even in a bright room, images are clear, sharp and natural looking.
IP: The IP conversion system corresponds with all interlaced signals (including

Digital shift

With Digital Shift, you can adjust the display position of the 16:9 image up or down on the 4:3 screen. This gives you a lot more installation flexibility when using the 16:9 screen; for example, when suspending the projector from the ceiling.

New technologies

True SXGA plus (1400 X 1050 pixels) with D-ILA technology
The DLA-SX21 incorporates three high performance SXGA+ (1400 x 1050) 0.7" D-ILA devices (1.5M pixels x 3) with a total of 4.5M individual RGB pixels. These pixels are converged on screen to produce a stunning, high resolution picture with 1.5M high-density converged pixels. The high-density, reflective liquid crystal structure used in JVCs original D-ILA (Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier) technology achieves the optimal combination of brightness, resolution, contrast and color for the big screen. Thanks to the fine pitch D-ILA device, images are smooth as silk, boasting incredible detail and lush, vibrant, super-realistic color. Because small text, 3D computer graphics, animation and moving pictures are all displayed clearly right into the corners, this system is ideal for multiscreen applications. You'll be able to effectively combine each image with other images for a more powerful, high-impact presentation.

NTSC/PAL/SECAM/1080i (50 Hz/60 Hz), 24sF, 25sF, 30sF by selecting the optimum pulldown system (2-3 or 2-2 pull-down).

New JVC optical engine

JVC has developed a powerful new optical engine that incorporates PBS (Polarized Beam Splitter) circuits. The PBS circuits separate light source into Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) components and then use these RGB components to compose the image reproduced on-screen. Incorporated in the DLA-SX21, this original JVC technology minimizes dissipation in the light path and suppresses stray light in the prism, making it possible for this small 0.7" device to deliver an impressive 1500 ANSI lumens with an enhanced contrast ratio.
DPC: The pixel density conversion system achieves favorable frequency characteristics. DSD: JVCs original contour correction technology (DSD - Digital Super Detail) is able to accurately control horizontal and vertical lines while suppressing the influence of oblique lines. Also incorporated is a color difference signal enhancer without overshoot that minimizes smear in color details. Two additional enhancers (with overshoot and without overshoot) are provided to enhance expression of details.

The on-screen menu allows you to quickly make adjustments to various settings. The first and second menus are shown simultaneously for simple, systematic setting operation. The lamp can be easily replaced from the side and the filter from the front underside of the projector. An NSH lamp (high-pressure mercury lamp) is used, so running cost is kept low. The lamp life is approx. 2000 hours.

Easy installation
Installation is a snap, so you can take this projector anywhere for a presentation without worrying about setting it up. The feet can be adjusted to optimize the projection angle.
The lamp replacement is easy. Just remove the cover, unscrew the two screws, and pull out the lamp. Place a new lamp in the socket, screw it in, and replace the cover.

JVC color profile

JVCs color profile technology has been developed to ensure that colors are reproduced with greater fidelity to the original. Important color reproduction elements such as color temperature, gamma and RGB gamut are optimized for each of four modes (sRGB, MacRGB, AdobeRGB, EBU). Simply choose the mode that matches your source for best results.
H/V digital keystone correction
Keystone correction can be performed horizontally ( 01degrees) and vertically ( 03degrees). So, projection is possible offset at an angle, making installation flexible.

Compact, portable design

Weighing only 13 lbs. (5.9 kg), this projector is compact enough to carry anywhere.

Wireless remote control unit
A wireless remote control unit with cursor keys is provided for remote operation of the projector. The GUI on-screen menu can also be operated with this remote control unit.
4 color profile modes are available.
1 sRGB mode: Corresponds to the color reproduction and color space defined by the international sRGB standard. This mode provides reliable, faithful color reproduction of images from Windows-based computers and HDTV pictures. 2 Mac mode: Gamma and gamut preset to match Mac computer standard color reproduction. 3 Adobe mode: Gamma and gamut settings optimized for Adobe applications such as Photoshop and Illustrator. 4 EBU mode: Suitable for broadcast video monitors.
