Nice to get a full view of projectos available. Not just jvc nz's. Thanks

Thanks, Rob, for this thorough, but obviously long recap. All great and dandy, but by the time you add up the cost of the PJs, the lenses, screens, whatnot -- you may be cheaper-off with an 8K video wall. Seems like projector and PJ accessory prices are constantly going up, while video wall prices are softening. And if you only need a 100-inch diagonal screen site, going with a commercial display or smart TV is the obvious way to go.

If money would not be a problem, I'ld bought a nice short throw projector to replace my LCD projector. In a heart beat.

Interesting to see, and I do wish the 21:9 trend will keep going. When my screen is filling the wall at home top to bottom now I can't really go taller - but with a 21:9 screen I could get dramatically more surface area for the area I personally care about, which is 21:9 movies. It's not that a movie on a 120 inch screen is bad - it would just be that much better on a native wide screen. I'd way way rather watch my 16:9 content with side black bars than watch the movie content with top/bottom black bars. Sure - anamorphic lenses and a lot of nonsense can do it, but a native 21:9 projector would be much more painless.

CHRISTIE: If they have so-called "high contrast lenses" with 6000:1 CR -- why are they still selling lenses that can only master a 2000:1 CR?
