I review many different projector before finally purchase this one . I have it project on a flat , white wall from about 15 ' away and the seating be also about 15 ' away . the high definition be outstanding on this projector . I also have a 52 '' Sony Bravia 1080p lead and this be definitely comparable to that which be amazing consider it be much , much bigger . the menu option do not need much tweaking despite what you may read in some people 's review . I increase my contrast to 61 and I decrease my brightness to 48 during the day and move it down to 40 at night . if you be look at buy this model I would strongly advise do so . only downside be that the zoom be very limited and there be no lens shift capability so if you be work with a small area you might want a projector with lens shift and zoom but if not then this model be definitely worth the money ! I have have friend over to see it and no one can believe that it only cost $ 630 . the PS3 look outstanding on this as well . I can not comment on the 3d capability as the converter box be sell out at the moment and do not get to test that out but if it be as good of quality as the rest of the projector then I be not worried one bit .
