5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome picture quality, August 31, 2008

This review is from: InFocus PlayBig SP7210 HD Ready DLP Front Projector (Electronics)

I did 5 months of research before deciding on this one and have not regretted this choice. Got this projector for the DLP DarkChip 3 and Faroudja DCDi chipset... was not disappointed. All the reviews I read were right about the PQ... great contrast and upconversion to from 480 to 720p.

Also bought a M1-DA to HDMI converter for 15 bucks, and native HD sources look awesome! I'm projecting onto a 92" screen I made using laminate and Screen Goo. The projector quality is still life like even in ambient light. I'm never going to pay to watch a movie at a theater again.

Was looking at the Optoma HD70 and Mitsubishi HC1500, but I paid a little more for this because of the processing by the Faroudja chip which makes so much difference with clarity of motion... a must for action movies.

I had the infocus 4805 before this, and I loved it.. the 4805 lasted 4100h on the same bulb, I can only hope the 7210 does as well.

The 7210's color reproduction is phenomenal if at times a bit too warm, but it really feels like you are there live, especially when watching real HD quality media.

It is a snap to setup, takes about 45sec to warmup so make sure you turn it on before your other equipment to give it a chance.

I have it projecting on a homemade 96" widescreen screen, and it is really amazing. It is in the normal livingroom, and i can watch it in full daylight. Better than all of the LCD TVs I have ever seen.

If you want to save space, money, have a real theater experience, go with this projector. It doesn't have HDMI, but that is ok, I still use component and the quality is perfect.

I would say go with this for a couple years until all the hidef standards cool down, and everyone agrees on the encryption methods used, then upgrade.

i replaced my infocus 5700 with this 7210 and the upgrade was well worth it. much sharper images and much quieter.
