DLP projector =1920 x 1080 =1000 ANSI lumens=12000:1 =HDTV =21.6 lbs=16.9 in x 18.4 in x 7.8 in

One of the better performers in the entry-level 1080p projector race, the Mitsubishi HC6000 also benefits from a comprehensive feature set.

JVC DLA-HD100
Although a top performer in some respects, the JVC DLA-HD100 projector's relatively high price makes it a questionable value considering its color accuracy issues.
