Which Hi-Def projector has the best lens shift?

Question

I want to buy a home cinema projector for my Xbox, but I don't want to go through the trouble of mounting it to the ceiling. I just want to place it on a table to the side of my sofa. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

LCD projectors typically have the best lens shift (versus DLP models which didn't used to have the feature).

Panasonic PT-AX200U (720p) and Panasonic PT-AE2000U (1080p) are both good. Epson's Home Cinema UB is also good, but is new and costs more.

Good lens shift is about %50. So imagine the center of the image moving to about where one side was after it's moved over completely. Watch for one with both horizontal and vertical lens shift too.

For gaming, the Panasonic PT-AX200U is a good price and has a game mode too. Its the first projector to have a mode for gaming specifically.  It's bright too, so you can use it with lights on.
