Re: The future of RPMs ** From My Perspective **
Robert C.,
This report was posted last night from ProjectorReviews.com:
Quote:
Just one 720p home theater projector! Panasonic demonstrated their new PT-AX100U projector, in two rooms. The first demo room, a fully darkened theater, and the second in more of a family room environment with the ability to vary the brightness widely to see how the PT-AX100U performed. The projector looked great with movie content in the dark, and had the brightness to handle moderate ambient light, in the other room.
With the PT-AX100U, Panasonic is the first major player to come out promoting a "brighter" home theater projector, in this case rated 2000 lumens. They share the idea that many users need the extra brightness, because they don't want to "be in the dark" for all content. A dark room is ideal for movies, but most people don't want to be in the dark for watching sports, TV, or video gaming. Also, many potential home theater buyers, do not have dedicated theater rooms, and can't do a good job of darkening their viewing room while the sun is up.
