A matter of image: 11 projectors tested

EPSON EMP-720

The Epson EMP-750 is a nice compact LCD projector that offers 1500 ANSI lumens at a contrast ratio of 400:1. It is the lightest of all the LCD projectors we reviewed. Connectors include VGA, S-video, composite video, PC audio and a USB connector which can be used to connect the projector to a computer. (Most of the other projectors use serial ports to connect to a PC.) All the standard connectors are located on the back of the unit, as is the remote control holder. The remote control itself is very small and doesn't have a laser pointer.

Sample Scenario
About RMIT Test Labs

A replacement lamp will cost you $704, which is reasonably inexpensive, but it only has a rated life of 1500 hours.

The Epson offered excellent contrast and brightness. Its only downfall was it wasn't as sharp as the Sony.
