Just replaced my 5 year old Optoma (also a good projector) with the Planar PR5022. Very pleased with the picture quality and has less wash out during the daytime viewing conditions. Highly recommend this unit...No need to spend any more money on a projector unless you have money to burn.

By far the best buy for your money. This projector has great colors even in the brightest setting - 3500 lumens, and you can hardly hear it when it's running. I have been using this projector for 6-months and it has been flawless. You can see every detail of the presentation with the lights on. I haven't had to change a lamp but based on others feedback it should be very easy. The keystone and volume adjustments are one touch adjustment. No browsing through the menu to get to these settings. I highly recommend this product. 5-stars

I had never heard of Planar so I did a little research and was pretty surprised by what I found. These guys (and gals) have been in the specialty display biz for over 25 years! Not only do they make projectors and lcd displays they also have one of the most highly regarded names in the diagnostic imaging field. For the A/V nuts out, Planar is the Parent company of Runco. Impressive resume, so I decided to give them a shot. My thoughts on this unit are stratight forward it kicks a$$. I use it mainly for teaching in well lit classrooms and the 3500 lumens gives me a very bright picture. Its great too for backyard movie nights (the neighborhood kids love it). The only drawback is portability. The carry case that it comes with is great, but it still isnt nearly as travel friendly as some of the ultra lights. I guess thats the trade-off for 3500 lumens Over all a great projector and well worth the investment.

This projector (PR5022) is the upgrade to Planar's top selling PR5020. We bought the PR5020 early last year, and just received our new PR5022. It has the exact same feature set and design as the PR5020, but this baby pumps out 3500 lumens. Like the PR5020, it has 3 lamp settings, so you can double the lamp life by keeping it in economy mode. It's definitely bright enough in economy. If you have full fluorescent lights on or bright sunlight coming through windows you can run it in boost mode for maximum brightness. I love the top loading lamp housing of both the Planar units. It's as easy as changing a light bulb! I thought the brighter PR5022 would have a loader fan, and maybe I'm going deaf, but I can barely hear either one. I also like how it ships with all the cables and a carrying case. I wish the cost was the same as the PR5020, but the 500 extra lumens sure do make for an amazing picture!

What Is DLP?

  • DLP Digital Lighting Processing
    DLP™ technology is a revolutionary display solution that uses an optical semiconductor to manipulate light digitally. It's also a proven and dependable technology preferred by leading electronics companies worldwide, with more than 2 million systems shipped to more than 50 manufacturers since 1996. DLP™ technology is in use wherever visual excellence is in demand. In fact, it's the only display solution that enables movie projectors, televisions, home theater systems and business projectors to create an entirely digital connection between a graphic or video source and the screen in front of you. The result is maximum fidelity: a picture whose clarity, brilliance and color must be seen to be believed.
  • DLP Digital Lighting Processing
    Digital Light Processing™ is the world's only all-digital display solution and a key ingredient in the best digital projectors available today. DLP™ technology uses an optical semiconductor to recreate source material with a fidelity analog systems cannot match.
  • The Semiconductor That Changes
    At the heart of every DLP™ projection system is an optical semiconductor known as the Digital Micromirror Device, or DMD chip, was invented by Dr. Larry Hornbeck of Texas Instruments in 1987. The DMD chip is probably the world's most sophisticated light switch. It contains a rectangular array of up to 1.3 million hinge-mounted microscopic mirrors; each of these micromirrors measures less than one-fifth the width of a human hair, and corresponds to one pixel in a projected image. When a DMD chip is coordinated with a digital video or graphic signal, a light source and a projection lens, its mirrors can reflect an all-digital image onto a screen or other surface. The DMD and the sophisticated electronics that surround it are what we call Digital Light Processing™ technology.
  • Digital Light Processing I: The Gray Scale Image
    A DMD panel's micromirrors are mounted on tiny hinges that enable them to tilt either toward the light source in a DLP™ projection system (ON) or away from it (OFF)-creating a light or dark pixel on the projection surface. The bit-streamed image code entering the semiconductor directs each mirror to switch on and off up to several thousand times per second. When a mirror is switched on more frequently than off, it reflects a light gray pixel; a mirror that's switched off more frequently reflects a darker gray pixel. In this way, the mirrors in a DLP™ projection system can reflect pixels in up to 1,024 shades of gray to convert the video or graphic signal entering the DMD into a highly detailed grayscale image.
  • Digital Light Processing II: Adding Color
    The white light generated by the lamp in a DLP™ projection system passes through a color wheel as it travels to the surface of the DMD panel. The color wheel filters the light into red, green and blue, from a single-chip DLP™ projection system can create at least 16.7 million colors. And the 3-DMD chip system found in DLP Cinema™ projection systems is capable of producing no fewer than 35 trillion colors. The on and off states of each micromirror are coordinated with these three basic building blocks of color. For example, a mirror responsible for projecting a purple pixel will only reflect red and blue light to the projection surface; our eyes then blend these rapidly alternating flashes to see the intended hue in a projected image.
  • Applications And Configurations
    Televisions, home theater systems and business projectors using DLP™ technology rely on a single DMD chip configuration like the one described above. White light passes through a color wheel filter, causing red, green and blue light to be shone in sequence on the surface of the DMD. The switching of the mirrors, and the proportion of time they are 'on' or 'off' is coordinated according to the color shining on them. The human visual system integrates the sequential color and sees a full-color image.
  • One-Chip DLP Projection System
    DLP™ technology-enabled projectors for very high image quality or high brightness applications such as cinema and large venue displays rely on a 3-DMD-chip configuration to produce stunning images, whether moving or still.
  • Three-Chip DLP Projection System
    In a 3-chip system, the white light generated by the lamp passes through a prism that divides it into red, green and blue. Each DMD chip is dedicated to one of these three colors; the colored light that each micromirror reflects is then combined and passed through the projection lens to form a single pixel in the image.

About HDTV Viewing Angles
The Viewing Angle of any TV is an important specification.  The wider the viewing angle, the more enjoyable your experience.  Viewing angles above 150° means you can view your TV from a reasonable range - from the front and off to the sides.  However, viewing angles above 170° are best!  Many of today's Plasma and LCD HDTVs offer viewing angles of 178°, and their images do not suffer from degradation at very high viewing angles.   LCD TVs were originally designed for a one user experience, as a computer monitor, but the technology has kept pace with the demands for ever increasing viewing angles, and most offer excellent viewing experiences.  Between LCD and Plasma; Plasma TVs have the advantage, but by a small margin.

Viewing angles are not an issue with projectors because the light source is coming from in front of the screen, and not from behind. However, the surface on which you project (screen or wall surface) may have a slight impact on viewing angles, so it is important to choose the best screen possible.

When creating a home theater, most people overlook the amazing benefits of using a DLP or LCD Projector instead of a large screen LCD or Plasma TV. Projectors provide the ultimate experience in big screen viewing. Instead of a 40 or 50 inch TV, with far less cost, you can have a 8 or 10 foot screen, and transform your living room into a true theater experience. Additionally, projectors are available with High Definition displays for incredibly crisp rich full color cinematic images. When you sit on a sofa 6 or 8 feet away from a 10 foot screen, it almost exactly the same experience as sitting in the movie theater (without the guy talking on his cell phone behind you!) So consider the ultimate upgrade to your home theater or gaming system. Add in a great home theater sound system, and for very little money, you've created a movie watching dimension the envy of your friends and family. So before you decide on your wide screen consider the perfect solution to transforming any living room into your own cineplex!
