Hello,
I'm working on a production of Urinetown and trying to rent a projector. I am looking at the Mitsubishi HC3800. The throw ratio is 1.41:1, and I will have a 19' throw resulting in a 13.5' image. The brightness of the projector is only 1300 Lumens, but it is DLP vs LCD and has native 1920x1080 resolution. Our projection surface is a painted wall that we would like to be somewhere in the dark to medium grey range. I'm not sure if I will be happy with that brightness. However it seems like I am forced with the decision between that and a brighter LCD projector with a resolution of 1024x768, and that makes me worry that my pixels will be too large. What do you all think?
