Proxima 9210 for 400.00 should I buy it?????

[Video Freak]

I have the opportunity to buy the projector locally( well Down where My brother lives) from someone whom wants to get rid of it It has 700 hrs on the current 2000 hr bulb and the specs are XGA and 700 ansi( I currently have this same projector) but I was thinking about how I could get a LCD monitor thats beter Contrast( 9210 is 150-1) and maybe get a HQI setup that would produce more then 700 ansi. Im torn whats everyones opinions, On the one hand the projector is smaller and zooms etc But the LCdmonitor would be a better contrast responce etc and it dosent take a 200+ bulb replacement. bahhhhh post away with what you think.

doesnt sound like a bad deal. xga 700 lumen, you can always add a hoya lens to improve contrast. if you dont like it, you can sell it on ebay and maybe make some money.

Hey ap0the0sis

What's a hoya lens? I've never heard of them and improving contrast is valuable information!

 

[ap0the0sis]

hoya, or "lens filters" are lens that you screw onto the front of your projector to improve black levesl. They are many types such as CC40R , CC30R and so on. You will have to make sure that you can adjust the RGB on your projector so that you can correct the colors as it will change them slightly.

These lens-filters are mostly used in photographic equipment to adjust colors and lighting.

you can also read on this subject at http://www.avsforum.com just search for filters, cc40r etc...
