Looking for a projector. Only want to spend around $2,000.
Do not want to get hung up on specs, so the BenQ is in the running, contrast 50,000:1. Have also heard there are some ghosting and game play issues with Epsons. Have heard only great things about the Panasonic. Which one would you pick, why? Or should I look at something else? Spend the extra bucks on a Epson 5020? http://www.projectorcentral.com/Epso...inema_5010.htm http://www.projectorcentral.com/BenQ-W7000.htm http://www.projectorcentral.com/Panasonic-PT-AE7000.htm Marantz SR6004, UD5005, CD5003 Unwatched BDs: 49 Movies & 14 TV Series

I wouldn't go Panasonic. I viewed this myself and was disgusted by the Ghosting. I thought it was broken until I saw another installed. I owned the BenQ W7000. This was a fantastic projector. 3D was the best I've seen. Reports on the net is that it has zero Ghosting. I wasn't into 3D so it sat in my kids room which they used for their PS3 until I sold it. I was not popular. That is what I would recomend. Haven't seen the Epson. Supose to be very good with just a little ghosting in 3D. Some users say It's a little loud.

I love my Epson 5010. I rarely see ghosting or crosstalk on mine. The blacks are excellent. I have played PS3 on mine many times and it has no issues. The Epson is real quiet with 2D and the bulb in eco mode, which is bright enough for me. In 3D mode it is louder, but if you have a good sound system you dont notice it. I say go for the 5010.

Thanks for the input. The more I read about Panasonic, the lower on the list it goes. Definitely BenQ or Epson.

I have the Panasonic PT-AE7000U and don't have the ghosting problem. I'm very happy with it.

Mentioned it somewhere else, wonder if the number of issues is no more or less than the other PJs. I'm going crazy, deciding and changing my mind again and again. Cutting out projector's after one night of reading, and then putting it back on the list after a night's sleep. Will be going to the States in a month to buy. Doesn't seem like enough time. May just get the cheapest of the three and be done...but then again the Panasonic AE8000 and Epson 5020 may be worth the extra bucks. ![]() Marantz SR6004, UD5005, CD5003 Unwatched BDs: 49 Movies & 14 TV Series

It is a slippery slope. Started this search looking at Optoma HD33, but a better projector is always just 2 or 3 hundred away. I've always liked last year's models. Got an awesome deal on my CD player, last in stock before new model arrived. Felt like I was getting away with a crime. ![]() ![]() Difference in CD players from year to year is minimal. Difference in PJs, may be a bit more. ![]() Looking for a deal. Marantz SR6004, UD5005, CD5003 Unwatched BDs: 49 Movies & 14 TV Series

What are the worst parts of your projectors?
Auto-iris noise on Epson? BenQ RBE, low blacks? Panasonic ghosting? What things should I be prepared for? Marantz SR6004, UD5005, CD5003 Unwatched BDs: 49 Movies & 14 TV Series

You have hit the nail on the head. There is always something you will have to live with. Just remember all throw out a fantastic picture. I'm looking at a upgrade next year. Top of my list is the Sony 4k and that has a iris. So still not perfect. Ta Dono ![]() Source: 2x Oppo BDP-103D's (Bluray, CD, and SACD), PS3, PS4, Project 1.3 turntable.

I believe that. Why I think I may pick the cheapest of the three.

There is just too many things that the JVC's are just getting too far behind.
1. Not true 4K. 2. 3D way behind 3. Lamps. Altho supose to be improved. They just can't get consistant white uniformaity. Check out the Lens and Lamp on the Sony 4K. That is a serious machine. 4. HFR. Has been confirmed for the Sony 4K All those thing combined has pushed me away from JVC and towards the Sony. It might be $11K more expensive. However it means that I don't have to spend $11-$15 more the next year when they finally come to their senses and produce a 4K with HFR.
