All Projectors/Presentation Devices

The Bottom Line: Sanyo's affordable 1080p front projector has its share of flaws, but still represents a good value in its category.

Specs: LCD projector, 1920 x 1080, 1200 ANSI lumens, 16.5 lbs, 15.7 in x 13.6 in x 6.1 in

The Bottom Line: Sony's VPL-VW10, the company's least expensive SXRD projector yet, proves itself a very good performer for the price, and therefore an excellent value.

Specs: SXRD projector, 1920 x 1080, 1000 ANSI lumens, 30000:1, 22 lbs, 16 in x 18.3 in x 7 in

The Bottom Line: Priced less than a midsize flat-screen LCD TV, BenQ's MP512 ST DLP projector is a solid, affordable option for people who want a big screen for casual use or gaming.

Specs: DLP projector, 800 x 600, 2200 ANSI lumens, 2500:1, 4.9 lbs, 10 in x 8.4 in x 3.5 in

Specs: DLP projector, 1920 x 1080, 1000 ANSI lumens, 10000:1, 22 lbs, 15.4 in x 18.9 in x 8.3 in

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

Specs: LCD projector, 1920 x 1080, 1000 ANSI lumens, 15000:1, 12.3 lbs, 13.1 in x 13.9 in x 4.9 in

The Bottom Line: 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.

Specs: D-ILA projector, 1920 x 1080, 600 ANSI lumens, 30000:1, 25.6 lbs, 17.9 in x 6.8 in x 16.5 in

The Bottom Line: While its color fidelity is not nearly as good as other late-model Sony SXRD products, the otherwise good-performing VPL-VW60 home theater projector remains a solid value.

Specs: SXRD projector, 1920 x 1080, 1000 ANSI lumens, 35000:1, 24.3 lbs, 18.5 in x 15.6 in x 6.9 in
