[Tig] Digital Projection

[Steven Bradford]

>We have been installing projectors for just over three years now and
the one thing I can be sure of is that projectors are a very personal
thing. 

Colin-- Any recommendations on a projector for a medium sized theatre
(12' x 20ft screen, 43' throw). I've been told I need at least 5k
lumens. But finding something that is at the least 1920 1080P capable,
for under US$50k, is proving difficult. There are several good, but much
brighter projectors and much more expensive, and many much smaller ones.
All I've found so far is the Sanyo PLV100 or 150. They've got the specs,
and are only $30k. I think there may be a Barco, but I've not found a
dealer yet or pricing, I suspect that they're above my budget too. I
don't need 2k, just HDCAM level would suffice.
