Sanyo Z2000

[Got2LoveGadgets]

I have just purchased a Sanyo Z2000 found a very good deal online (probably due to the 3000 being out any day) Does anyone have links or tips on setting up the projector? My screen is 80 inches and the projector sits about 4 meters from it in a totally dark room

Each screen, viewing environment and users taste is different but I can tell you when you are running a 80" screen, you sure won't have to worry if the projector is bright enough. Even with a low gain screen you will be able to calibrate it using the lowest bulb setting and still have a bright picture. Your best bet is to find a calibration disc and be prepared to spend several hours tweaking.
