I have an Optoma throwing an image onto a 92" diag. widesceen. Seating distance is around 8' currently until I get it mounted on the ceiling. My room is approx. 21' L x 11' W. Unit sits on a cabinet currently at about 10' I have the zoom set to nearly minimum. I suggests experimenting with different media sources and widescreen formats before mounting the unit to the ceiling. You want to mount it at a distance that you will find provides the largest display for the widest HD format like 2.4:1. The other comment was correct. As you expand the zoom you are reducing the lumen/ sq.ft.
Can anyone give me info that the Optoma HD73 is as bright if not brighter than the Optoma Hd70 ?
I want to upgrade from the Optoma Hd70 to Hd73 but I was stopped in my tracks by one review that said the Hd73 is significantly less than the manufacturers claimed ANSI brightness.
The Hd 70 is bright enough for me I just want the DLP 3 chip and higher contrast but I don't want to sacrifice at the cost of loss of brightness.If they are even in brightness then that is fine by me !
HELP !

I would buy this in a second at this price, but I never heard of this place...
Anyone know how to find out if these guys are legit?
Anyone heard what the holdup is on the release of this projector.
I heard a rumor about a color wheel issue. But now that it's nearly 2 months past the original projected release date I'm wondering if it's a more serious problem.
