Retailing at just over £1,500 and aimed at moderately serious videophiles, the full 1080p HD ViewSonic Pro9000 lacks some of the features you might expect to see in this sort of price range – including, for example, frame interpolation – but it offers a h...

No 3D support, No lens shift and minimal zoom...

Following the extinction of gloriously bulky CRT video projectors, big screen aficionados have had a clear choice between LCD and DLP. Both technologies are capable of great results, yet have distinct weaknesses: single chip DLP projectors often suffer...
