Time for an outdoor movie!
5 Stars
Time for an outdoor movie!
Like many other reviewers, I did a TON of research before making my decision to purchase the Optoma HD26 projector. My criteria were, I thought, pretty straight forward. I needed 1.) a projector that was bright enough for outdoor use (primary function), and 2.) 1080p. My research ended up informing me that not all projectors are equal.My application is an outdoor theater for my backyard. I am projecting on a 140" Carl's FlexiWhite Projector Screen, which requires the projector to be ~ 13 feet back and ~ 1 foot below the bottom of the screen. I have a Sony BDPS3700 Blu-ray player connected via HDMI, and I am outputting audio via the 3.5mm headphone jack to 2 powered PA speakersLyxPro PA Speakers.Our first movie, albeit a bit cold out, was like sitting in a theater. The picture was crystal clear with clean motion and great contrast. Everybody (16 people) were impressed with the picture and were even more impressed that we were watching movies outdoors that rivaled indoor TV's.The projector takes approximately 2 minutes to warm up sufficiently to see a picture on the screen, which reaches full light output in ~ 4 minutes total. For our application of movies, we aren't concerned about turning the projector on/off. Once it is on, it stays on until we shut down after the movie. The colors from the projector seemed pretty darn good out of the box, so I haven't changed any settings.A well thought out piece of this projector, surprisingly, is the remote. Optoma may have gone a little overboard with how bright the backlight is on the keypad of the remote, but it makes it easy to find the buttons you're looking for when it is dark. I wish other manufacturers would take this into consideration. I have zero regrets about my purchase, and highly recommend this projector.
