The JVC DLA-NZ500W delivers a compelling combination of high-performance picture quality, compact design, and user-friendly operation. It’s a fantastic option for home cinema enthusiasts who desire a true, native 4K cinematic experience within a versatile and space-saving projector.
Unlike some projectors that rely on pixel-shifting technology to achieve a 4K image, the DLA-NZ500W delivers native 4K resolution (4096 x 2160 pixels). This guarantees exceptional sharpness and detail, bringing your favourite movies and shows to life with stunning clarity. Additionally, the projector utilises JVC’s renowned D-ILA technology to produce rich deep blacks, high native contrast (40,000:1), and accurate colour reproduction. The result is a truly immersive and realistic viewing experience.
The DLA-NZ500W is considerably smaller than many traditional 4K projectors. This makes it ideal for rooms with limited space or where placement flexibility is desired. JVC has completely redesigned the internal components, including the DiLA chips set to achieve this compact size, ensuring optimal performance despite the reduced footprint.

2,000-Lumen BLU-Escent Laser for Bright Images
JVC’s original BLU-Escent Laser light source designed especially for the DLA-NZ500 is capable of achieving exceptional peak brightness of 2,000 lumens with 20,000 hours of long life. Housed in compact casing, the laser light engine provides higher output, greater efficiency, and quieter operation, making it an excellent solution for demanding home theatre installations.
Fully Motorised 4K Lens
The 1.6x fully motorised zoom & focus, 80-mm 4K lens is capable of projecting high-resolution images to every corner of the screen, while securing wide shift ranges of 70% vertically and 28% horizontally for flexible installation.
Gen2 Frame Adapt HDR offers Deeper Blacks and More
The Gen2 Frame Adapt HDR function instantaneously analyses the different peak brightness per scene or per frame for HDR10 content and performs real-time tone mapping for optimised brightness, colour and details. When combined with each of the following modes including the new Deep Black Tone Control, the projector detects and analyses data contained in HDR sources to project the best of what each source has to offer:
– Deep Black Tone Control subdues tones in dark areas for more realistic darkness.
– DML (Display Mastering Luminance) adjusts/sets the dynamic range to match the image for a much better HDR experience.
– FILMMAKER MODE™ recreates picture quality that is faithful to the original master.
Picture Mode “Vivid”
Made to reproduce SDR content with a narrow dynamic range in more saturated colours with greater vividness, the Vivid mode is excellent for SDR animated works and gaming CGs.
