i used to leave my unit on standby but not anymore since the problem.

so far so god, no problems.

maybe we should compile those do and dont on the 1st page liao

Yeah, better to do so.

Hehe i used to unplug the power cord right after i switch off until synco say it's bad for the PJ. Now i leave the PJ on standby and i tend to forget to take it out the power cord until the next day. The unit is quite hot with the PJ on standby. Is this normal?

toytoy, not good to do so. ycs used to put it on standby just like you (as per his post on top of this page). He got problem with it. Now, he unplug it. Just make sure that it is properly cools down before unplug.

the epson ub sure got a better review in projecotorreviews.com than the ae2000 but ae3000 maybe diff story.. here got preview http://www.projectorreviews.com/blog/2008/...tor-first-look/

i've seen both new epsons the 5000 and the 3000 plus the ae3000

think art from projector review also said that the older 1080UB beat the ae3000 in terms of black level....so what do you think the new epsons would do...

RM300+ Better send your own 'Starscream' to our Bolehland. J_Vansen_S did that.



How about the 'budget' Infocus X10 (1080P)? I personally auditioned it on last Sat. Its PQ is quite good. The colour is nice too. The drawback is its sheer size. Anyway, this is one handsome pj (for me, at least).

from the brief viewing i had with the epson 5000 (and 3000) and the AE3000.....i still prefer the epson....although they all look pretty good to me. price wise, they're not that far from each other...but epson 3000 is much cheaper than the ae3000........just didnt like the fact that panasonic got lazy and decide not to design new enclosure for their new AE.

as for the infocus...not much experience with that....it wasnt considered when i was looking to buy a projector because of throw limitation....but i think it had pretty good review, so it shouldnt be that bad eh.

by the way...think panasonic has more user complaints than epson....

sorry invaded the optoma thread...hehe

i scored 0....hehehe, but outcome my eye sakit ler... took me more than 5 minutes to do this test....

Another proud owner of HD65 report in.

No regret and the SIZE does matter. Due to limited room size, only able to get ~85" diagonal n more importantly not pening on fast action movie.

Need to check with sifu here. It is about the fan cooling cycle during shut down. For my case, when I pressed the power button twice, the countdown screen appeared and right after that, the unit is under standby mode (Power LED turns RED) and the fan stop (I don't hear the woving sound). Look like the fan only operates a short time only during shut down. Is this the same with your HD65? My office multimedia projector's fan still operates for about 1 minutes or more when the screen is off.
