Guide to Video Projection and Video Projectors
The video projector has long been used as a presentation tool in business and commercial entertainment, as well as in some very high-end home theater systems. However, video projectors are now more available and affordable for the average consumer. For an overview of video projection as well as video projector product suggestions, check out the following guide for video projection and video projectors.
Televisions are bigger, better, cheaper, and slimmer than ever. The home theater consumer has choices ranging from the traditional tube-type television to large screen rear projection sets, to the latest hang-on-the-wall Plasma and LCD flat panel monitors. All of these types of television configurations have been successfully incorporated into many home theaters around the world. However, all of these TV viewing options place the viewer "outside the box". On the other hand the video projector places the viewer "inside the box". For an explanation of this concept and how a video projector can be a viable, and affordable alternative, or supplement to television viewing, check out my article: Video Projectors - What You Need To Know.

Matching up the distance and angle between a video projector and screen is not only important for size and brightness of the image, but is it also important in order to get image correctly placed on the screen. If the projector/screen angle is mis-matched, the image may end up projected above, below, or spill over the side of the screen, or the projected image may not display the correct rectangular shape. This is where Lens Shift and Keystone Correction may be needed. Find out more in my article: Video Projector Tip: Lens Shift vs Keystone Correction.
