DCR/CDR G2 + XM3 Lens System

Leveraging Panamorph's award winning DCR optics, their G2 (second generation) lens system is now packaged with the XM3 universal attachment kit for ceiling- or shelf-mounting JVC DILA and Epson QB series projectors. Note that like the previous DCR and CDR lenses, these models do not change the width of the image – only the height – as they convert the full native resolution of the projector to the 2.4:1 cinema format with millions of more pixels for higher brightness and detail.

DCR-G2 is designed for JVC D-ILA projectors with 65mm lenses such as the NZ800 down to a 1.4:1 throw ratio and with 80mm lenses. It will also work with JVC projectors such as the NZ500/NZ700 with an 80mm lens down to a 1.6:1 throw ratio, and also the 100mm lens of the NZ900 with theater throw ratios of at least 1.7:1. Geometric performance is exactly the same as the DCR-J1 and DCR+XM2 which this model replaces.

CDR-G2 is designed for the Epson QB1000 (and also LS9000 through LS12000) projectors (full throw ratios with all models). The CDR applies a higher magnification than the DCR so an additional amount of barrel distortion should be expected (although Epson has the “point correction” feature to remove distortion if desired).

• 2 million more pixels on your 2.4:1 format screen for stunning detail and 30% higher brightness when showing 2.4:1 movie and streaming content.
• Does not change the projector throw ratio. A slight barrel shaped geometric distortion will appear with the DCRG2. Greater distortion with the CDRG2 can be corrected to a rectangular image using Epson’s “Point Correction.”
• Sealed, precision, proprietary all-glass optical system. 
• Instant aspect ratio changes. No need for lens adjustments in shift/zoom/focus.
• Optimized for vertical position of the projector in typical home theaters from -6″ to +16″ from screen top and +/- 4” from screen horizontal center (greater with higher throw ratios).
• Additional projector mode fills the 2.4:1 screen with stretched 16:9 content.
• Weight: Lens and bracket: 3 pounds (1.4Kg). XM3 plate: 5 pounds (2.3Kg).
• Dimensions: Lens only: 3.7” (94mm) D X 4.3” (109mm) H X 5.4” (136mm) W. Allow 4.2” (105mm) in front of the projector lens for mounting and adjustments before obstructions in front of the anamorphic lens.
