Summary: Extremely good home theater projector
Comment: Well balanced bright film like images .I have a 1.1 gain 2.35:1 115 inch screen and I use it for watching movies primarily. Motorized zoom, lens shift and memory are great features. Good value for money compared to Epson. HD Sports images a little soft, but still very good.

Summary: Awesome projector!!
Comment: If you have the means, I highly suggest getting one...it is so choice!
Setup was easy and yet you have TONS of options. Cool feature is the waveform monitor that automatically adjusts your picture to the input type for color, brightness, etc. 3 HDMI inputs very convenient no switchers needed. I've got it shooting at a 133" screen in my basement and it looks fabulous. Until 3-D becomes mainstream, this is the way to go until then....

Summary: Seriously Sick Projector!
Comment: I looked at almost every projector that is comparable to this Panasonic. I spent nearly 6 months researching every bit. I finally decided on the PT-AE3000 and I wouldn't go back in a second.
I am coming back for an edit after about 50 hours of screen time on this projector. I have been comparing many movies that I own to their Blu-ray counterparts and I will tell you that this projector still rocks! Reasonable 1080p that blows the doors off of most of the other projectors with price tags of 2 to 3 times this one. Don't buy anything else...

Summary: 1080p Magic
Comment: this is a fantastic proj. right out of the box but with a few minor adjustments it is almost perfect.the cinema modes with a da-lite hipower screen with everything set on eco mode is plenty bright enough to satisfy anyone even with the lights on it is very watchable.i highly suggest the high power screen if you can manage to set it up with what it needs which is the light path as center of the screen and the proj lens as close to your head as possible.you will be completely satisfied.
best proj out there for the money without a doubt

Summary: Fantastic - but huge
Comment: This is a fantastic projector: 1080p, smooth, bright, quiet... but huge, like the size of a laptop bag. I got it to replace a Panasonic AE500-U that was 4 years old, the 3000 is about three times the size of that projector. If it's to be ceiling mounted, that won't be a big deal, but I had my 500 mounted in a hush box with plenty of space around it. The 3000 won't even fit in the box! (The lens on the 3000 is much bigger than the lens on the 500, making photos misleading--see my comparison pic in the customer-added photos.) The lens shift feature is great but a little clunky (it doesn't allow adjustment in fine increments). Likewise, the electric zoom and focus have a weird lag-then-leap way of moving that makes it difficult to adjust precisely.
However, once you get these annoyances out of the way, the 3000 provides an incredibly smooth, bright picture with very quiet fan noise and great picture adjustment functions.

Editorial Reviews:

While many LCD projectors suffer from a "chicken wire" effect, Panasonic's pursuit of the highest possible image quality has successfully overcome this device limitation through the incorporation of Smooth Screen technology, which uses the double refraction property of crystals to arrange pixels on a screen with no gaps between them. Smooth Screen technology is designed specifically to match the characteristics of the PT-AE3000's optical system, giving you the kind of smooth, vivid, and three-dimensional-like images you see in a movie theater. The PT-AE3000's new full-HD LCD panels have a double-speed drive capability that improves the projection clarity of moving images. These high-precision panels use vertically aligned liquid crystal molecules with inorganic alignment layers. When no voltage is applied, the molecules are aligned perpendicular to the glass substrate, so there is no light leakage and the substrate remains black (called "normally black" operation), providing higher contrast. The fifth generation intelligent iris system works by analyzing histograms to determine the brightness level of each image, then adjusting the lamp power, iris and gamma curve* accordingly to create the ideal image. The adjustments are made virtually frame by frame. This helps the projector achieve a wide dynamic range with swift smoothness for added beauty in both dark and bright scenes. Brightness - 1,600 ANSI lumens Dynamic contrast ratio - 60,000 - 1 Powered zoom (2x) / Powered focus, F 1.9 - 3.2, f 22.4 mm - 44.8 mm Power supply - 100-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz Power consumption - 240 W (Approx. 0.08 W (up to 220v) in standby mode with fan stopped) Panasonic 1 Year Parts and Labor Ltd Warranty
