    I have Epson. EF 11 , I buy it because the pandemia beguns. But It feels like this Epson EF 12 is the same but with the only diference than Yamaha speaker is on top of the proyector. Så maybe I can wait some years, to buy another proyector.

    I love this projector. Unfortunately when I bought this, it did not include the mounting plate but did supply an empty box for it. This projector is almost perfect except for the brightness of the total black area if the keystone is adjusted. If the black was blacker then it would literally be perfect.

    • @bobbykoulouris
      @bobbykoulouris Год назад

      @Sigedno Kastaneer not about the screen, being portable, if keystone is adjusted at all the non image areas remain bright enough to be a distraction.
      On the other hand the image area is awesome.

      @tonyrking 3 года назад +6

      Here's the thing.. with ANY projector you want to enjoy them in a low light room, because even in a bright room with a powerful projector you'll get washed out blacks no matter how bright the lamp. So with that in mind a 2700 lumen projector would be way too bright.

    I think this is the future of screen tech. However having the box in the middle of the room is a no go for daily use. I will pass until they figure out the technology more. In a couple years it will be projecting 150 inch at 4k mounted under the screen. And With better interface.

      I just bought it.. it has multiple adjustments. Vertical and Horizontal Keystone AND an 8 point manual adjustment. Mine is at the side of the room. I would recommend the Vava Chroma if you're looking for an ultra short throw projector that is 4k, 3 lasers and sits about 15" from the wall.

      150" protection size while close to the wall technology already exists. There are plenty of ultra short throw projectors capable of 150" that can be a mere 2 feet from the wall. They are the next tier in cost but are plentiful.
      The Epson LS300 ultra short throw is capable at $2,000 US dollars. They go up in cost from there.
