Author Topic: Perfect Storm in DLP Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA. USA (1774.21 miles northeast of Dallas) Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-09-2000 07:33 AM                        Has anyone else seen this? Comments? I wrote a review of this which is too long to post here; it's on the web at http://www.redballoon.net/~snorwood/dlp.html (scroll down past the Star Wars review). I would be interested to hear comments from others who have seen this in DLP.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-09-2000 08:45 AM                     One thing I have been wondering about the DLP projector is why it is mounted at an angle? Is this to facilitate servicing or something? In keeping up with a Christie tradition.............

I think it does make the system easier to work on with the "hood off" as well. There's quite a bit of light bending going on in there.  |  IP: Logged
