3LCD Technology for Quality and Color That's Beyond Amazing 3LCD technology delivers amazing color and detail. Whether it’s big-screen entertainment or a classroom demonstration, 3LCD technology takes video performance to the next level. Delivering legendary image quality, this innovative technology always ensures powerful visual presentations.

Color -- 3LCD technology goes far beyond ordinary color. “Clear”, “rich” and “vibrant” barely begin to describe the incredible depth and brilliance it delivers. The impact is stunning. It’s an astonishing level of realism you never thought possible.

Reliability -- 3LCD technology is durable and dependable. Road-tested by millions of projector users around the world, it has been used in more projection products than any other. Over 40 million chips used in projectors and RPTV products have been put to the test in classrooms, sales presentations and on stage.

Detail -- 3LCD technology offers extraordinary detail. And detail is what superior image quality is all about — from movies to your most important presentations. 3LCD light engines deliver incredible, jaw-dropping detail — the kind that puts you right in the middle of where the action is.

Color and White Light Output (Brightness) With Epson projectors, your presentations are sure to shine bright. For the best quality image, both color and white light output should be equal. Lumens are a measure of light output. The Epson EX30 delivers equal color and white light output of 2200 lumens for rich, colorful images1. Whether you’re projecting images with deep, dark colors or a white screen with minimal text or graphics, you get consistent light output. And, with Epson, you can be confident you’re getting exactly what you need because Epson measures white light output according to the ISO 21118 standard. Ease of Use Epson projectors are easy to use and offer versatility to your presentations. Convenient short-cut features, such as Instant Off®/On, Direct Power Off/On, and Sleep Mode (AV Mute), allow for quick set up, shut down, and pauses in your presentations. Furthermore, image alignment and flexible zoom features allow for quick, high quality images at all times. Energy-Efficient E-TORL Lamp The innovative E-TORL lamp, exclusively from Epson, is a reliable performer that delivers more lumens per watt and lasts up to 4000 hours2. Switch the projector to High Mode and the E-TORL lamp still produces up to 3000 hours of light performance. The special E-TORL design minimizes light leakage, providing you the ultimate in lamp longevity — up to 50 percent more lamp life than competitive products. And, E-TORL replacement lamps cost up to $150 less than competing replacement lamps. So, while the E-TORL lamp maximizes your presentation time, it also minimizes your costs. First-class Service--Everywhere You Go The EX30 comes with an Epson two-year projector limited warranty, Epson Road Service program, Epson PrivateLine® dedicated toll-free support and 90-day lamp warranty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pleased, With Small Gripes., November 24, 2008

By	Seth Rogati "Zethr" (St. Thomas, USVI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I searched and compared projectors for a long time before settling on this one. I need a highly portable, easily set-up, projector for slideshows, movies, presentations, and the occasional killer gaming session. I'm not using it for home theatre or anything high-tech. So far I'm very satisfied. It's easy to set up with basic electronic A/V knowledge. It's less confusing than other projectors I've worked with, and the A/V mute and instant on/off are particularly handy. The remote does just about everything too. My big problem is that it has USB connectivity to a computer, Plug-n-play!!, but only for PCs! As a Mac user I was frustrated that it did not say ANYTHING about this in the specs until I opened the box. Especially frustrating is that earlier models seemed to have good connectivity with Macs, so I don't know what happened. However, no biggie because it still connects with the component cable, and even to my iPod with the help of the iPod A/V cable. All-in-all a good purchase, especially for the price.

4.0 out of 5 stars High Quality for Price, March 5, 2009

By	FriendlyTech "Technology Coordinator" (Saint Paul, MN USA) - See all my reviews

I got this projector for use on projector cart for the K-8 school where I work. The ability of the device to turn on quickly, to identify the correct video source, automatically, and to shut down quickly is really valuable in an environment where harried teachers may not always be patient enough to follow instructions. Easy setup, easy switching among devices, a bright image even in a partially lit classroom makes for a great choice. We have two other Epson projectors (Epson PowerLite 77c 2200 Lumen Multimedia Projector) which are nearly identical to the EX30 except for the larger number of interface options including HDMI.

The short throw of the projector does mean that the cart needs to be pretty close to the projection surface. This can be inconvenient on a cart because the projector needs to be in front of the students, but we have small class sizes, so this is not a major problem. As a ceiling mount, this is an ideal solution (our ultimate goal is to have projectors ceiling-mounted in each classroom).

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Starter Projector, December 16, 2008

By	B. Mosur "ronsbubby" (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a good starter projector for those who just want to show movies or do presentation. I am using it mainly for watching movies and I have it connected to my DVD player and laptop for watching movies and songs form utube. Overall I am preety happy with the purchase as this fits into your budget perfectly and also shows you the quality of the video that you DVD player will output. All in all a good buy
