Projecting plant pictures
"Charlie Pridham" wrote in message ... I need to change to digital projection, I occasionally give talks to garden clubs and have a slide projector but have found it increasingly difficult to get hold of the slide film so last year bought a DSLR camera, very pleased with the pictures but at present I can't use them! So as I am not Alan Titchmarsh and don't charge a huge amount to give talks I was looking at something like the Epson EB S02H which seems to retail at around the 240-250 mark but the spare bulbs are 140 ish and I wouldn't be happy not having a spare. (Why are the bulbs so much more for these projectors compared with slide ones?) While looking at all that I noticed a LED-33 projector for just 130 which claims 25000 hours bulb life? My question is, does anyone here use the cheaper LED projectors and is the picture quality OK? (ie does it compare with an old fashioned slide projector) I suppose I normally project onto a 5' square screen and can chose the distance, normally evenings so I don't need to project in bright light -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk Unfortunately digeital projectors are quite expensive, so are the replacement bulbs. I bit the bullet and bought an "InFocus" projector. I think in hindsite, I didn't need the quality model I bought. It has given good service over the last 5 or 6 years. Google InFocus and see what model suite you needs. The chairman of our gardening club approached PC World and bought a projector (InFocus), stand and screen as a "small business" arrangement and saved quite bit. Bill |
