Projectors for an organazation
 

what type of things would you guys suggest to look for as far as projectors? Just a few basics and if you know any good brands or models then I'm open to suggestions.

I would look for no less than 1024x768 resolution. 800x600 isn't enough anymore.

DLP type projectors seem to be a bit clearer. Also look at the cost of replacement bulbs.

Edit:

Of course, lookat the types of inputs. VGA and Composite of course, but DVI, SVideo and Component would be beneficial in the future.

Portability is also useful.

Not necessarily the really expensive tiny ones, but something you could at least fit into a briefcase...

Lumens! Make sure you get a model bright enough for your environment. I wouldn't go with anything dimmer than 1500 lumens. The higher the better.

I recommend http://www.projectorpeople.com

They have several tutorials, and are nice people to deal with.

cool deal,

Right now ive got my specs narrowed down to something with at least XGA, 5-10lbs, and between 2000-3000 lumens. The org im working for is willing to spend about $4000 bucks so I want to do some research and get them something with DVI and both RGB in and out. Thanks for the help guys.

Go to www.CEDIA.org and find a designer in your area. They should be able to recomend something to you based on your needs.
