Stop with the peasant already, the fact everyone here is looking at a HT is proof you are not peasant. No need to be so humble ler.

Aiyo, that is not a good thing. As for me, I also dun want to bring up the BDP to my wife yet, coz I can tell the winds not blowing in the right direction yet. Will have to save up the funds and then slowly nudge her in the right direction. Don't worry bro, here is my motto, if you really want it, there will always be a way to get it... trust me.

I have not been keeping abreast with equipment prices, but SGD2.4k sounds like a darn good deal.

Guys, don't do this to yourselves. Say peasant, Stay peasant, guaranteed. Nuff said.

Bro Jason, I ve posted it on page 14. Or you want to see the proper setup photo?

Thanks for informing me, I did not notice it. The PS3 pics make me drool.gif. Do u have pics of HD and normal DVD of the same movie for that can be used as a comparo. Wanna see if playing HD thru a 720p is worth the fuss... If u dun have nevermind, no need to specially take the photos. I will try to find some comparo online.

wud there be any problems w the panny in terms of PQ and other issues..reading timotthy and jasonlky threads they seem to be not so keen after testing them but then again my eyes are lowya a bit and may not see those things that u guys can detect.

The issues that bro Tim and I had was with the older AX100. I believe that the AX200 has most of the problems sorted. I have found AVS Forum to be a good source of complaints. If there is anything wrong with the projector, those guys there will beat it to death!!

Hi,

Wow 18ft is a distance woh.. should not be a problem wat pj u buy.. but I think u ll need a light controlled room.. my tw700 at 17ft away needs to be jacked up to brightest settin when watchin in daytime wif normal (not blackout) curtains n  tinted windows, but since installin blackouts I can use de lo lite settin again..

Uhm epson is a lot cheaper then ur listed 8+k la.. there are a few reasons why all 3(tim, jason n me) chose de epson over panny la but u go check out de posts on panny(avs) first plus demo(if u can) before u decide for urself.. one thin I find epson better than panny is de warranty - 2yrs against pannys 1..

Cheers

And 1 more thing, even though the Epson TW700 has 1600lumens on paper, in real terms it is as bright as the AX100's 2000lumens. But in reality very few of us use the brightest settingcoz the kaler sucks.

Agree on the point that u must audition, coz you may or may not like the smoothscreen tech used in the AX200. I read that the smoothscreen in AX200 has beeb enhanced, it is software controlled to give optimum sharpness... coz many people complained that the AX100 was blur... me included.

Actually for the asking price, the picture is OK.

As for taking photos, in a fully darkened room, you are advised to use a tripod or some form of support no matter what ISO you use. As for me I prefer ISO 50, without flash (obviously) mounted on a tripod. I use the timer function (set at 2 seconds) to activate the shutter coz there must be zero vibration when the shutter is open... and the shutter will be open for an eternity..... 4-5 seconds.

I think the pop is there but the degree of poppyness is up to your interpretation.... HTKaki take better pics to show off the poppyness before we can come to a conclusion.

Now I know. I used ISO800 to take. I thought the higher the better  blush.gif

Well... that is the correct rule for general snapping. As ISO800 will let u take clearer pics at lower light settings. The problem is that at ISO800 noise appearing as grainy pictures start appearing and that reduces the clarity and poppyness of the pictures.

The picture has a bluish tinge. I went back and read the guys settings, apparently it was intentional as he was compensating for better whites. He was projecting onto a yellow wall.

Isn't it inaccurate to take photo to show movie picture quality?
Do you pause the movie or let it run?

It gives you an idea of what a projector can do. It cannot replace an audition if you have an intentionto buy.

QUOTE(htkaki @ Apr 23 2008, 10:52 PM)
when you let it run, my lousy digicam unable to take a clear picture. You will see movements.
Jason, tks a lot for the advice.Will try again when I am free

Forgot to say that the movie should be paused when the picture is taken. I thought it was a given....
