description Panasonic PT-AE700U Overview
The Panasonic PT-AE700U is a home-theater projector introduced in the mid-2000s and built around three LCD imaging panels rather than DLP technology. It has a native 1280 by 720 resolution for 720p widescreen video, uses a replaceable projection lamp, and includes optical zoom and lens-shift controls that provide flexibility when positioning it in a room. Designed for film and television viewing in controlled lighting, it predates native 1080p consumer projectors and does not provide built-in stereo speakers.

The projector includes HDMI, component video, S-Video, and computer RGB inputs. Its 2x optical zoom and manual horizontal and vertical lens shift make ceiling or shelf placement easier.
Can the PT-AE700U lamp be replaced?
