I wish it worked.......2006-09-19

I bought this model 4 years ago for my computer lab. From the very start I had troubles. The projected image flickered and jumped. I called right away and they replaced my lamp for free.

For the next 2 years it worked sporadically. It would not come on the first time I turned it on, sometimes I had to unplug it. I called several times and was given the run around. Finally a notice to extend my warrenty came. I extended it and called again. I was told it was certainly because the lamp was getting near the end of it's 1000-2000 hours (big difference, eh?). I explained there was no way it had been used for that many hours, and the tech support guy argued with me. I gave up arguing and tried one of the things he said (take out the lamp and remove the dust). After that, it worked consistantly. (When I could finally get it to work, I checked the lamp hours...it had run for 238, no where near 1000).

I thought I was home free. I used it today and it was on for about an hour plus. I was away from it working on a computer when I heard a loud bang. I looked up and the screen was blank. The darn lamp exploded!

I hate to give up on InFocus all together, but I may have to.

Unlike the two reviews below, we've used this model for over two years in a classroom setting (read: constant use) and it's still working great! Knock on wood, of course.

It is bright, clear, and economical, too. I would not hesitate to recommend it.

poor choice.......2005-04-21

We chose this model for a conference room. (Inverted use - which is an advertised feature.) The color flickered so badly that we had it repaired -- twice. Then we finally had to gripe loudly enough to get it replaced. The replacement unit did the same thing! Finally, the bulb exploded and put the projector out of our misery. R.I.P.

We used to buy InFocus exclusively, and now we have switched to Dell.

Constant Headache.......2004-08-19

We purchased a pair of infocus projectors 2 1/2 years ago for classroom use and have been through repeated problems with both of them as well as the multiple replacement units that we have been sent. They apparently have very poor quality power supplies (we have had at least 3 fail). We have also had two separate lamps explode within the projector, destroying the unit. Several others have merely decideded not to function. Avoid these projectors!

Light and cheap but it does the job........2003-03-13

I bought this projector largely on the basis of cost (about $NZ1000 cheaper than anything equivalent)and am generally pleased with it. The lightness of construction is a bit of a worry: I am used to Sanyo projectors with magnesium alloy bodies but this has a plastic case and parts such as the plastic height adjustment leg don't look too robust to me. The remote control is tiny, and provides minimal functionality. My old Thinkpad, used for running the machine, lacks a USB port, so I can't work the computer mouse through the projector remote, but the remote is so tiny and fiddly I wouldn't want to anyway. But although at first sight it all looks a little flimsy, closer examination shows it is well put together and so far, it seems quite hardy enough. It is certainly very light. There is a basic but useable soft case.

Set up is easy and the documentation is excellent. Focus and zoom are only manual but in practice this doesn't matter and in fact I find it faster and easier than electronic control. There is limited connectivity: enough for one PC and 1 video but that is all I (and I think 95% of users )need and I won't be rushing out to buy the optional enhanced connectivity module.

The image quality is very acceptable. For powerpoint presentations the image is clear and bright, and can be used in a very well lit room. Text in 20 point Georgia(gold on blue) could be read from more than 50 feet away. Although it is only SVGA I have projected Word and Excel documents quite readably to small audiences. Video is adequate.The video image lacks some of the colour depth and contrast of other projectors, even ones with a lower ANSI-Lumen rating but it is smooth and quite sharp.
