Anyone have experience with video projectors outdoor? Recommendations? What to look for? What to be wary of? Thanks, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always had Panasonic projectors in the past and was kinda leery of the Epson brand, but so far it blows my old Panasonic away. I don't use it outdoors, but I do have it in a room that has 3 floor to ceiling windows on one side and a double sliding glass door on the other - aka a TON of light - and this projector is still plenty bright during the day. I also offset the room brightness with an Elite Screens CineGray ambient light rejecting screen (it really does make a difference). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am leaning towards an Epson, but one on the lower end. I plan to sue mostly outdoors so I'm going to go with someone's entry level...The Epson LCDs seem reasonably priced and well-featured.
