Compared to older models, a modern projector will have much better image quality and a more powerful lamp while requiring less frequent maintenance and making less noise. Thanks to improvements in low-power diode light output and the long lamp life of blue laser diodes, modern projector light sources last several times longer than the bulbs in traditional projectors. New BenQ models also benefit from additional features such as built-in Wi-Fi, HDR capability, and improved color wheel processing for more realistic color.

According to general education and business conventions, projectors last an average of three to five years with typical use. However, the longevity of a home theater projector or portable short-throw projector may vary more widely. With default settings, Sport mode has a slight yellow-green shift, but it is easy to tweak for suitably neutral color, and without affecting either ANSI brightness or the brighter shades of yellow. BenQ's Color Management settings let you adjust hue, saturation, and gain individually for all six primary (red, green, blue) and secondary (cyan, yellow magenta) colors. With an outstanding brightness figure of 3000 ANSI Lumens, the TH671ST suits all types of lighting conditions. Even during daylight conditions with curtains or blinds open, the TH670 produces a watchable and detailed picture - perfect for gaming on a weekend afternoon. For optimal performance, BenQ’s LumiExpert technology detects lighting conditions and automatically adjusts the brightness to suit.

What is a 'short throw projector'?

To determine the Image Size (screen size) enter a distance measurement number in the Throw Distance value box and hit the Enter You might be looking for a projector to upgrade your home entertainment setup. Compared to a TV, a projector offers a unique cinema experience. Home theater models can also work with your surround sound system, as many of them have analog audio output in addition to USB-C and HDMI ports. Performance. The TH671ST delivers usable 3D with support for DLP Link glasses only, but its 3D performance doesn't stand out from the crowd. I saw no crosstalk in my tests, and 3D-related motion artifacts are less obvious than with earlier generation 3D projectors. However they are more obvious than with most current models. The single 3D color mode is roughly as bright as Cinema mode—the least bright 2D mode—before factoring in the loss of brightness from using 3D glasses. away from the screen or wall, the image will get bigger, and as you push the projector closer to the screen or wall the image will be smaller. To properly Finally, projectors can be important tools for sharing information and giving presentations in addition to their entertainment uses. BenQ offers a wide range of business and interactive classroom projectors that provide as much as 5,000 lumens of brightness to fill projector screens, even in rooms with harsh ambient light. How Long Will a BenQ Projector Last?

The bigger problem with Bright mode is the loss of gradations to the point of showing a hint of posterization in demanding images. Despite that, Bright mode with defaults is our choice for the presentation-optimized setting, even for presentations that include photorealistic images. Most people will also consider it acceptable for occasional use in, say, a family room in daytime when they absolutely need the extra brightness. The BenQ TK850 3000-lumen projector produces UHD pictures at resolutions of up to 3840 x 2160 pixels. This projector supports HDR10, providing incredibly bright, colorful content. The device has a dynamic Iris and enhanced contrast, making it a good choice for home theaters. This device is factory calibrated and covers the DCI-P3 space quite well. With a dedicated Sport mode, this projector is suitable for watching sports. However, this projector produces above-average fan noise.

The TH671ST does not support horizontal keystone, so you will have to physically adjust the projector for this alignment

Lens offset. The lens offset for the TH671ST is designed for placement on a low table, with the bottom edge of the image falling somewhere between the lens centerline and up to 5% of the image height above it. For example, with a 100-inch high image the bottom edge would be anywhere between even with the lens centerline and 5 inches above it. The bottom edge of the image on our test unit was about 4% of the image height above the centerline, which is within typical sample-to-sample variation.in your room. The position of the projector in your room changes because you will need to move the projector closer or further away from the screen Video Optimized Lumens. Both the Cinema and Sport modes are good starting points for optimizing settings for video. Both deliver color that's well within a realistic looking range and close enough to accurate so you wouldn't know that any color is off without a reference image to compare to. However, Sport mode delivers a higher ANSI lumen measurement and brighter shades of yellow, which prove to be more accurate when comparing with a reference image.
