Purchasing a Projector

Just checked a bit on Projector Prices…sure also checked for prices for laptops, game consoles, headphones, cameras, external HDD drives, and …similar…

Just 2 cents on Projectors and projector prices

Apparently, BENQ is a good and cost-effective brand for general purpose use such as Classroom [k-12], Home Theatre. They also have high price models.

Sony, Sanyo, Optima or similar, Canon, Epson, LG also have projectors….

For general purpose, and classroom use 2500 to 4000 Lumen [brightness] is sufficient actually 2500 to 3000 Lumen should be alright.

16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratios are preferable

Most will have 1024*768 resolutions; sufficient for general use

1280*768 can also be found in the cost-effective solutions

XGA, WXGA are the recent technologies where old technologies such as VGA, and SVGA are also available in the market with low price (VGA/SVGA usually from $300 to $600; whatever I saw)

SUWXGA or something similar may be available recently.

DLP or LCD technologies. Apparently, LCD is described to be better. LCD better for presentation purposes mostly; DLP may have an advantage in video i.e home theatre. DLP has an issue called rainbow effect; this effect can be much distracting that some people will find the video (or presentation may be) unwatchable.

Amazon.ca seemed to have some sales on projectors

You can get around $500 to $600, the Benq projectors

some under $600 have 3D ready, where with some limited 3D features are available; where in some you can achieve 3D using HDMI

Some with little more prices can have network support, wireless support, and PC less but USB drive operation [presentation document in USB and probably as image files]
