this projector be a great value . good surprise : easy to set up , phenomenally bright , resolution be just fine . bad surprise : noticeable fan noise , poor black level . some extra thing that work well for I : use this background paper as a very inexpensive and high quality screen :  Savage Seamless Background Paper , 107 '' wide x 12 yard , Super White , # 1  but it be way too bright for night-time , no matter the bulb or contrast setting , so I use these gel :  Lowel Neutral density nd-3 gel Filter Set for the pro and i-Light System , five 5 '' x 6 '' sheet .  the gel frame swing out of the way for daytime viewing . the gel also improve night-time black level , but it be still obviously gray . it be a lcd , after all .
