Nec WT610E is this:

$999

You can see how close you can get it to the screen-very handy! And also it's designed to be placed on the floor so you don't get so many problems with the tilting effect. I just wish my crappy camera could do the picture justice!
 
It looks cool :-) yes I agree very handy to install in the floor and very close to the screen, very good.
 
dJdAb - what size artists panels where you projecting on? and which exact pico projector are you using? It looks really cool.
 
new to cue, how to i project video from laptop to screen without everything on my laptop projecting also
 
first off you need to have a dual core laptop... then hopefully this tutorial i made might help.
 
This has been a valuable thread on projectors but Screens need to be taken into account as well.

Here is a screen size /throw calculator.

http://www.projectorcentral.com/projection-calculator-pro.cfm

You place the manufacturer and model of your projector in the calculator and it spits out the size of screen
Also takes into account, mounting position, ambient lighting, optimal seating distance

Very good things to know about if you need to custom build a screen & projector mount combo or just want to know how big your screen will be say at 5 feet throw.

Now before you go into a venue you can plan projector and screen placement.
 
just added to favourites, thanks.

Sharp SVGA (800x600) resolution
Bright 33 Lumen LED light source
1GB onboard memory + microSD reader
MP4, MP3, AVI, JPG, WMV decoder
Projects up to a 80" image*
*(In low-light conditions)
VGA, RGB, iPod, PSP, PDA, DVD input

33 lumens seems low but the demos on the site show that it gives a good image and DJDab's images look good.
No keystone correction and the limited resolution could cause issues. Great option for the right applications and the price is right.
I like my NEC VT540, it's old but you can't beat a 15' diag. image on the side of a garage that the whole neighborhood can enjoy.
Thanks for sharing DJDab.



Does anyone have the P2 Pico Projector in use now, I'd like to know if it's a good buy for small club gig's.

Thanks

Joey...
 
@dj dAB: your setup is AMAZING. could you please post more technical details (computer, case, screen size, projected image size etc.)...
 
 
Hey DJSoulman

That's a P2 repackaged;
well what I can tell you is that it's very nice, but if you're looking to use it for clubs and party venues then it's not bright enough to handle that type of job, other then that it's good.

I'm sending mine back for a larger unit HS102 http://www.aaxatech.com/products/hs102_micro_projector.htm

Good Luck

Joey.....
 
What I had in mind is not a full screen onstage but more a display behind me in the DJ booth. Like a LCD size screen display 40-50 inches.

That way keeps it simple and portable without having to mount somewhere remote with long wire runs etc.

Good enough for this?

That er work, but the ambient lighti needs to be very low.

Let me know how it all worked out.

A good Projector is the Optoma EP 1691 720p HDMI input
 
 
Both of the above suggestions are fine but a lot more expensive.

The cheaper ones will leave you disappointed. Think of it as buying a behringer mixer or Denon mixer
 
Hi DJ Marcel_1

You're right that unit is excellent, but I have some questions.

1. How often do you use the unit.
2. What length of time is the unit on per use.
3. How often do you change the Bulb.
4. How expensive are the replacement bulbs.

Thank You
Joey....
