Overview

The Panasonic ET-DLE350 is a motorized power zoom lens designed exclusively for compatible PT-D series large-venue projectors. With a focal length range of 52.8–79.5mm and an aperture span of F/1.8 to F/2.2, this lens targets medium-to-long throw installations where the projector is ceiling-mounted or rack-positioned at a distance from the screen. The power zoom mechanism removes the need for ladder access during setup or show transitions, enabling lens adjustments from the projector's control panel or an external control system.

In practice, the ET-DLE350 is best suited for fixed installation environments — conference centers, houses of worship, auditoriums, and staging rigs where the PT-D6000, PT-D5700, PT-DW5100, or PT-D4000 serves as the primary projector. The F/1.8 fast aperture at the wide end of the zoom range is a meaningful specification: it minimizes lumens loss compared to slower lenses, helping maintain image brightness on large screens. Build quality reflects Panasonic's professional optics standard, with the motorized mechanism offering smooth, consistent operation suited to repeated daily use in demanding event environments.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Motorized zoom allows remote focal length adjustment without touching the installed lens
  • Fast F/1.8 maximum aperture preserves projector lumens at wider zoom settings
  • Designed specifically for PT-D series projectors, ensuring precise mechanical and electronic integration
  • 52.8–79.5mm range provides meaningful zoom flexibility for medium-to-long throw staging scenarios
  • Power zoom enables repeatable positioning across multi-show or touring installations

👎 Cons

  • Compatibility is limited to four specific PT-D series projector models — not a universal fit
  • No built-in lens shift; shift capability depends entirely on the host projector platform
  • The 1.5x zoom ratio is relatively modest, limiting throw distance flexibility compared to wider-range lenses
  • No manual zoom override documented — loss of motor control could be problematic mid-event

Frequently Asked Questions

This lens is designed for the PT-D6000 Series, PT-D5700, PT-DW5100, and PT-D4000 projectors. Verify your specific projector model before ordering — this optic will not mount or calibrate correctly on non-listed Panasonic platforms.
Power zoom means the focal length adjustment (52.8–79.5mm) is motorized and can be controlled remotely or via the projector's lens control menu, eliminating the need to physically access the lens during a show or fine-tuning session.
The exact throw distance depends on the projector model and screen size, but this lens sits in the medium-telephoto range — suitable for mid-to-long throw installations where the projector cannot be positioned close to the screen.
The aperture ranges from F/1.8 to F/2.2 across the zoom range. The F/1.8 maximum aperture at the wide end is relatively fast for a projector lens, preserving lumens output. Stopping down or zooming toward the telephoto end will result in a modest brightness reduction.
Preset support depends on the host projector's lens memory feature, not the lens itself. Consult your PT-series projector manual to confirm whether lens position memory is available for motorized zoom control.
