Get the right projector for your needs

By Nat Asherg


Projectors provide the ultimate home theater experience. Nothing else comes as close to truly re-creating the viewing experience of a movie theater. Imagine the bewitching beauty of Avatar's planet Pandora spread out before you. Or a close-up shot of Jeff Beck's fingers coaxing delicate harmonics out of his Stratocaster. Picture a 240-pound linebacker barreling straight at you. Or a video game villain swinging a sword big enough to splinter your coffee table. Projectors deliver all that and more - images bursting with cinematic detail and color across a larger-than-life screen measured in feet, not inches.

One of the most important factors to consider when looking for a digital projector is the brightness. The measure of brightness used for digital projectors is lumens, and these numbers can provide you with a good idea of how well a unit is likely to work in a given situation. Most projectors fall somewhere in the range of 800 to 2,200 lumens, though it is possible to find brighter units.

For best results, you should try to match the projector with the native resolution of your source material. Your Blu-ray player, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 typically put out a 1080p signal. HDTV signals are still not totally standardized, although 720p and 1080i seem to be the most common.

LCD technology: LCD technology is generally favorable due to its superior color accuracy. LCD is also a must-have if your presentations are color sensitive due to color-coded diagrams, or graphic-design centered. The final must-have "feature" really isn't a feature at all. Do not forget to order a spare bulb for your projector, or you could be forced to scrap an important presentation or wait while someone chases down a spare.

The size and form factor of a digital projector can also be important to consider. If you have a projector shelf in your home theater, you may be limited by the dimensions of that space. It is also possible to find portable digital projectors for business use. These projectors often lack the very high lumens and resolutions of larger models, but they can be very convenient if you travel a lot and give presentations on the road.
