funny thing about rainbows. I just got a Optoma Ezpro 735 DLP XGA Business projector as my old Boxlight LCD XGA business projector was great but blacks lacked. so I tried this new one. good quality and sharp image but blacks were not as back as people say on DLP(prob due to the business class and lumens for such) and it had a green tinit to the supposed blacks. back it goes and im trying the X1.
but back to rainbows. I did not see them, even after hours of watching I did not see them. but a funny thing happened. when I went to turn on the lamp next to me (it has a plastic gold mirror coating on one of the lamp parts) I saw the projector image mirrored in it for a minute and totally seen the rainbow but it didnt go away. really weird but cool. it was not just a flash the reflected image in the mirrored gold plastic on the lamp showed as permanent rainbow. looked at the screen and nothing. very cool strange and odd!!!!! atleast I cant see them watching the screen must be something with the reflection making a effect. strange indeed!
anyway I said I would never buy a 800x600 projector but after this new DLP XGA businees performed I guess they are out now. its funny cause other than blacks my 6 year old XGA lcd was great!!!!! I will say the new one had a sharp image but what was with the green tint over the blacks ?
thought of the BenQ PB6200 but its not a HT projector either, has some issues and no connections(the optoma had DVI)didnt want to PB6100 as its a business projector too, really. the X1 atleast has DCDI.I think unless you buy a projector meant for HT I wont be satisfied. do the waiting game as prices come down and better units come out. until then based on all you guys raving I will try out the 800x600 X1. I got $425 for my old 6 year LCD and only paid $150 for it so this is a free jump after selling other things on ebay for profits. guess I cant really go wrong If I want to try new technology.
I was willing to spend $1500 and know if I went LCD I could get something decent but no blacks and I have a dust problem in my cellar which showed dust blobs on my old LCD. dont want to deal with that. forced hot air and A/c is bad for LCD projectors. spending $1500 on a DLP I read review after review and most of them had issues and after trying the Optoma I will pass on the BenQ for that price. I just dont think the processing on those units considering they are really business projectors even with the contrast ratio specs(reliable ? dont know) I learned HT projectors are my next pick after im tired of the X1. hopefully by then they will have got better and come down. $1000 for an XGA DLP and made for HT wont be far away if infocus can do this with the X1 for under $1000.... someday it will happen and be decent enough for us on a budget.
rainbows dont bother me so im just hoping I dont see much screen door from 14ft away with the X1.
