Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater DLP Projector - Optoma H30

Has anybody seen this projector? I took a look at it this weekend and was impressed. More impressive is its $1499 MSRP.

For the money, can this projector be beat? I thought it was better than the Infocus 4805, but those are the only two I have seen so far near that price range.

Can't comment from personal experience myself, but the folks at projector central rate it very highly for the under 1.5K category.

Thats what I currently have. Its does really well. Its was better than my old X1. Only issue is the QC...so hopefully you get one that is working fine...like I did.
Personaly picture quality and color saturation can't be beat up to $5000. You would need to get a PJ with the new DLP Mustang2 chip to kick its butt. Its a 4X 2 segment color wheel...no rainbows, no headache just great contrast and boy is it bright.

check my links.

have you seen the Sanyo z2 or the Panasonic PT-L500? Unless your already sold on DLP. I have the Pany, and projected onto an 11 foot wide painted on the wall screen. I sit 14-15 feet back and suffer absolutey no screen door affect. Every time I watch a movie -- I cannot believe this thing was under 2k.

Be interested in hearing about your decision and how it works out for you.
