'FANTASTIC'
Strengths:
very quiet ,sometimes forget its there cos its so quiet.
This is my 3rd projector to date and by far the best the image is so dynamic ,no fiter to change and sealed optics ,so no dust problems
Weaknesses:
none ,i was blown away by the projector
Overall:
forget lcd ,dlp is the way to go ,dont buy a panasonic just look at the threads on the av forum for banding and dust problems .this projector is awsome ,sure you get a little bit of rainbow but that is better than having to worry about cleaning filters ,dust getting on the panels (big green blobs) and virtical banding caused by heat missalighning the lcd panels. Just sit back and enjoy-no worries
