Panasonic ET-ELW21

The Panasonic ET-ELW21 is a specialized Short-Throw Fixed Lens designed for Panasonic’s 3-LCD projector series (such as the PT-MZ and PT-EZ lines).

Unlike zoom lenses, the ET-ELW21 is a "prime" lens with a fixed focal length. This design allows for a significantly wider aperture and superior light transmission, making it the ultimate tool for creating massive, bright images in extremely shallow spaces where every inch of throw distance matters.

Key Features

1. Ultra-Wide Fixed Perspective

With a fixed throw ratio of approximately 0.8:1, the ET-ELW21 allows you to project a large-scale image from a very short distance. It is the perfect bridge between a standard lens and an ultra-short-throw mirror lens, providing a wide field of view without extreme fish-eye distortion.

2. Maximum Light Efficiency

Because it does not have the moving internal glass groups of a zoom lens, the ET-ELW21 offers exceptional brightness. With a constant aperture of F 2.0, it ensures that your projector’s lumen output is utilized to its fullest potential, resulting in punchy, high-contrast visuals.

3. Motorized Precision Focus

While the zoom is fixed, the lens features a Power Focus system. This allows for razor-sharp calibration from the projector’s remote control, ensuring that even the smallest text is legible from corner to corner.

4. Compact and Robust

The ET-ELW21 is built to Panasonic’s rigorous professional standards. Its compact form factor makes it easy to install in tight ceiling voids or within rear-projection cabinetry where space is at a premium.
