Hi everyone! Lisa, Art’s daughter, here. You may have seen my named mentioned in a few reviews (“great for my daughter and her friends” or “just waiting on my daughter Lisa for the last couple images – she’s in the midst of final exams at school”). If you don’t know, I too work here at Projector Reviews. I do a little of everything–image processing for reviews, technical writing for smaller projector comparisons… But most recently, I handle our social media.
You may have noticed the recent addition of Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn logos around our site. These links and buttons are here to keep YOU in the loop about all things Projector Reviews. If you’re involved on any of these social networking platforms, you can now follow, like, share, recommend, watch, or listen to Projector Reviews in more places than just our website… Cool huh?

Greetings!
Sony VPL-VW1000ES 4K, 3D Projector
I first saw a VPL-VW1000ES Home THEATER Projector at CEDIA last fall. OK, everything always looks better in a fully blacked out demo room at a trade show, then in the real world. Still, I really was dazzled. There were some obvious issues with the prototype, but the projector, “cleaned up” had to be excellent. January came, and at CES I got another 15 minute look (actually two of them) at the VW1000ES. This time, the artifacts and other issues were pretty much gone. And Wow!
I’ve been begging and pleading to get my hands on one for review, pretty much since CEDIA. The Sony team is great, and, I do understand, I realize I’m not at the top of the food chain for review units, and these babies are particularly scarce.
Well, my turn has come. Monday – two days ago, morning brings me two big shipping containers on wheels. Read the rest of this entry »

Greetings,
I had to celebrate St. Patty’s day in Florida. I came down to Florida, primarily for business, but also a quick visit to family (the mom).
I attended EHX in Orlando. Sadly a smaller and smaller show each year, and I hear this is the last year, but I wanted a chance to catch up with a few contacts of mine I knew would be there.
Turns out, it was a far more successful show, for me than anticipated.
An announcement or 2:
1. Of interest to many of you. The JVC DLA-X70 Read the rest of this entry »

UPDATE: The BenQ W7000 projector review has been posted!
Greetings all!
BenQ confirmed that a full production W7000 should be delivered here by end of day. Not much to do to finish the review up, since other than a couple of minor things, this is really about getting better black level performance than the engineering sample.
If it does make it today, expect the updated and finished BenQ W7000 review to post on Friday! -art

Greetings, The HD8300 – Optoma’s flagship 1080p 3D capable, home projector has landed. Mike will be by shortly to pick it up for calibration, and my work on it starts tomorrow. With luck most of it will be posted by Monday. Because of limited time, and several inbound projectors, I may not pause to do a “first look” on this HD8300, but, if that’s the case, I’ll blog when the review goes live, to let you all know. -art

Greetings all,
I’m running a bit slower than usual clearing comments for posting. Please hang in there. I’ve had to head to Florida, until CEDIA next Wednesday, as my mom (87), just had major surgery. Things are pretty hectic. I’m going to try to get caught. Stay tuned it’s the evening of Sept 1.
Tomorrow at almost precisely 9AM east coast time, I’ll be posting a MAJOR projector blog after getting a close look at two brand new, 3D capable projectors, that have not been announced yet. Perhaps my major scoop of the fall season. Check out the new projectors! Can’t tell you yet, which they are. A short blog will get things going, but the in-depth article will be posted on the main site, with a hard to miss announce on the projectorreviews.com homepage, to link to the “First Looks” on both of them.

UPDATE: The Optoma HD33 projector review is now posted!
Just a quick note folks. The HD33 home theater projector is in transit – may even arrive today. This is Optoma’s lowest cost, new 1080p projector to be 3D capable – and 2D, of course. Optoma also offers the similar HD3300 which we’ll touch on in the review. The HD33 full review will post next week, after I publish the annual 1080p Projector Comparison Report, which I’m working on right now! -art

Greetings,
No projectors today, as this is the first day of the Outside Lands festival in Golden Gate park. I’m here with Lisa, the daughter, for three days, then across the bridge from San Francisco, to Berkeley where we unload her (and all her stuff) for another year of college.
Should be a great festival with headliners including Phish, Muse, Arcade Fire, Arctic Monkeys, Deadmau5, etc. Might even blog from the festival a couple of times, but no promises.
Back to the grind, Tuesday night.
Confirmed, one of the new Optoma 1080p projectors now promised before end of this month.
On other matters, I am working on the 1080p home theater report, these days. Part, including the winners, will post late next week.
Hang in there, while we enjoy a few days of great music at outside lands.
Ps. Im a huge Arcade Fire fan (especially their 1st album. I heard Arcade Fire first time at Coachella festival a bunch of years ago…)
