BenQ MS517 Projector – Image Quality

BenQ MS517 Color & Image Quality

Color accuracy with DLP projectors has always been an issue. Although DLP projectors have come a long way, some are still lacking the true color that one might expect. The main difference between DLP and LCD projectors, aside from all the other factors, is color accuracy. It is the most noticeable that is. DLP projectors tend to not present standard colors like yellow, red and blue very accurately. DLP’s can often produce a muddy looking yellow, or a yellow that leans more towards orange. The MS517 produces a nice red, but it does not produce the kind of yellow one might expect. It will be obvious to an audience the color is yellow, but it won’t be the eye popping yellow that one might be used to seeing on their computer’s LCD monitor. White is actually very nice looking. The BenQ MS517 does a great job with just about all the colors except yellow.
