yes agree basic 1080p projs, USD 1k should be the new price point nowadays, even 42inch plasmas can be had for less than 1k USD.. so no other reason why it should be costing usd2k for a starter 1080p projector unless they throw in an anamorpic lens as well..

vivitek better wor..  Shootout: Vivitek H1080FD versus Optoma HD20 http://www.projectorcentral.com/vivitek_h1...ctor_review.htm Vivitek's H1080FD and the Optoma HD20 are the first two 1080p projectors to retail for under $1000 at launch. These two projectors share some common features, as both are portable DLP projectors with very similar brightness and contrast specifications. Both have 1.2:1 zoom lenses with fixed throw angles. Both offset the projected image by 15%, and should be mounted on the ceiling or between the seats. But there are some key differences between the two. Lumen output. The H1080FD is rated at 1800 lumens to the HD20's 1700. That's not much of a difference, but in actual use there is more of a spread. The H1080FD's 1607 lumens in Bright mode is much brighter than the HD20's 954 lumens, and makes the H1080FD more flexible for use in ambient light. In their respective theater modes, the two projectors are much more similar, with the H1080FD measuring 712 lumens to the HD20's 633. In practical terms, the two projectors are on equal footing when calibrated for home theater. Contrast. The H1080FD and HD20 have similar contrast specifications - the HD20 is 4000:1 while the H1080FD is 5000:1. However, when placed side by side, the difference shows - the H1080FD has noticeably higher visible contrast than the HD20, making the images on that projector more dynamic and three-dimensional than those on its competitor. The HD20 had a deeper black level, but overall its contrast does not quite match that of the H1080FD. Color. If you want a projector that you can simply plug in and start using, the HD20 is your best bet. Out-of-the-box color accuracy is far better on the HD20 than it is on the H1080FD, and the projector needs very little adjustment to reach its peak. However, if you don't mind a little fine-tuning, the H1080FD has brighter, richer, more vibrant color post-calibration than the HD20, so do-it-yourselfers who don't mind fiddling with the picture adjustments will prefer Vivitek's offering.

QUOTE(anfieldude @ Feb 4 2010, 02:44 PM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I agree that Calman really shd put the saturation patterns and the associated screens for measurement. This was one area where I used HCFR as they had this feature which I found to be very important. However, I stopped using HCFR some time ago, so I have not checked if they are any changes to HCFR. Why not check for it in HCFR? Also 21ft/L with this greyscale tracking on a projector is impressive. Do you see any other downsides with the dyamic iris? BTW : Can't wait for more LED based projectors to come out. The spectrum on the LEDs is awesome, colour accuracy is in another dimension, unseen from the DLPs. |
