 good projector, but no optical zoom and low resolution Mar 09, 2006
By Taras Gorishnyy
This is a good product. I especially liked the design and convenient menu. Very easy to use and good picture quality. Two things I did not like about this projector: (1) no optical zoom and (2) only 800by600 resolution. This is not a problem if you plan to place the projector close to the screen, such that your image is not very large. In my case I wanted to project images on a wall in my living room (which is about 14 inches long) and mount the projector next to the opposite wall. It did not work. The image size was huge and the image quality was not so good. I could see separate pixels and it was very annoying. You can decrease the image size digitally, but it does not improve the image quality.
I ended up returning this projector and ordering Epson Powerlite 76C LCD instead. Couldn't be happier. 76C has all the same features + 1024by768 resolution and optical zoom. Definitely worth additional $250!

 Truly Amazing Projector That Surpasses It's Entry Level Title Aug 10, 2005
By Fernando Jaramillo
"SonicR30"
I'm a Beginner to the world of projectors but I do have a Brother with a Epson Powerlite. His is a way older model but I took his advice and got to research the new Epson Powerlite S3 against other entry level projectors. My budget was to not spend over $1,000. The new Powerlite S3 was a instant contender. But there are other brands and models to take in to consideration. I took to CNET.com and the reviews are in depth and on target along with a pick and compared option to side by side compared just about anything. I've had the powerlite S3 for a shortwhile now and this thing for me is by far no entry level projector sure it's for novices and the replacement bulbs are cheap and it is very easy to use, transport, setup, control, and adjust settings. In other words this baby delivers images so sharp, bright, clear, vivid you'll think your in a movie theater. I mean once you get the porjector out of the box your speechless. But you'll BE AMAZED at what a little patients can do you can make the image to your total approval. Which leads me to before. This is for me by far NO entry level projector the features on this unit make for so many possibilities in image quality and clarity.
SURE IT'S A ENTRY LEVEL PROJECTOR BUT IT DELIVERS LIKE A PRO WOULD AND WON'T HURT YOUR WALLET AND REPLACEMENTS ARE CHEAP! THIS EPSON HAS ALL THE RIGHT FEATURES YOU NEED AND WANT IN A PROJECTOR BE IT YOUR FIRST OR YOUR SHOPPING AROUND...THANK U FOR READING

Something to be aware of Feb 24, 2006
By planetmango
This projector is quite nice, but there are a couple of things you might want to be aware of, especially if you are thinking about this as a home theater setup. I bought this unit and found it unsuitable for my use, and here's why. The image projected is HUGE. You might think that's a plus, but I had to move it to no further away from the screen than the middle of the room in order to fit the image on a reasonable size screen.
At a distance of around 7 or 8 feet, the image is a minimum of approximately 60 inches diagonally. If I moved it back to where it could be mounted on the wall (12 ft.) the image was nearly from floor to ceiling and almost 12 ft. wide. I don't know about your house, but an 8 ft. by 12 ft. image was not what I was looking for. Zooming all the way didn't help all that much at that scale. Unfortunately, I didn't even have the option of a ceiling mount in the middle of the room because that area is taken by a ceiling fan.
The other thing is that it takes a very small amount of light to degrade the image unless you use a very high quality (expensive) screen. I can't see how it could actually be suitable in the daytime at all.
So... I'm not really knocking the projector so much as suggesting you judge whether it will fit logistically into your home. If it does, then you probably can't miss with this projector.

EXCELLENT VALUE! Mar 19, 2006
By Y. Xiao
"Little Ant"
I have been searching a <$1000 projector for years, which I need for teaching/presentation and home entertainmnet. This projector meets all my needs.
For teaching and presentation, its light weight, instant off feature, and keystone correction ability make my job very easy. It really can go anywhere, setup within a min. or two. Just connnet it with my computer (I used both PCs and Mac laptop), switch on, correct keystone setting electronicly, and everytime it gives me the perfect projection.
For home entertainment, I connnet it with DVD player/VCR/playstation with S-video cable, projecting pictures on a 70'X70' screening. This projector's 3LCD technology really works, shows great color and details. Its presettings for movie, game..., is really convenient and easy to use. My whole family just love it!

Solid value - BIG screen TV for a fraction of the price Feb 15, 2006
By M. Bentley
"mrb186"
This projector is a SOLID value. This is basically a huge wide-screen TV with the portability of a laptop at half the price. I think it will be great for those big holidays and family get-togethers, just like the 'old days' with the family slide projector.
Just add a laptop PC, or VCR, or DVD player and you have everything you need for watching TV, movies, or slide shows!! Of course a portable projector screen would also be nice if you don't have a big white wall available. Contrary to one reviewer's disappointment with the remote, mine works great and that's pointing it at the screen with the projector behind me!!
P R O S:
- PRICE ($750 @ Staples plus $100 gift card and free Epson All-In-One printer)
- 4 PROJECTION MODES (front or rear screen, rightside up or down)
You can bounce the image off a mirror and still get the proper picture!
- 3 VIDEO INPUTS (S video, RCA-composite, PC RGB)
- NORMAL/WIDESCREEN MODES (4:3 or 16:9)
Great for watching widescreen DVD's
- VERTICAL KEYSTONE ADJUST
- 2 BRIGHTNESS LEVELS
-'ON-SCREEN' POINTER (controlled by remote)
- FREEZE THE CURRENT IMAGE (video will continue to 'run')
- ZOOM UP & PAN (zooms still and live video).
- IMAGE/SCREEN RESIZE
This allows the overall screen size to be reduced/enlarged instead of moving the projector nearer or further from the screen. The projected image can also be relocated side-to-side and up-down electronically without moving the projector IF the image size is in a reduced state.
- 7 PRE-DEFINED COLOR SETTINGS (Photo, Sports, Presentation, Blackboard, RGB, Game, Theater)
- ONLY 5.6 LBS & COMES WITH A NICE CARRY BAG
- QUIET
C O N S:
- no horizontal keystone correction, so you will want to make sure that it is centered from 'side-to-side'.
- manual focus. This shouldn't be a problem unless you have it mounted out of reach.
