Panasonic PT-AE900 review | from TechRadar's expert reviews of Projectors
Exceptional colours Decent price Good black levels No noise Scart socket...Picture is fractionally soft Black level outgunned by rivals...Its current model is the PT-AE900...The AE900's looks are decidedly underwhelming...In terms of sheer vibrancy, in fact, the AE900 is arguably one of the best we've seen it its class...Panasonic's Smooth Screen system, meanwhile, does...

Panasonic PT-AE900U Overview & User Reviews - Home Theater Projectors - CNET Reviews
Relatively inexpensive; solid video processing with 2:3 pull-down; excellent features for setup, including long zoom and horizontal and vertical lens shift;...Black-level performance and contrast ratio not up to DLP standards; somewhat soft HD images....That said, Panasonic's relatively inexpensive ($2,999 list) PT-AE900U is a surprisingly strong performer...DLP projectors...
Review: Panasonic PT-AE900U
There are so many calibration and operational variables on the AE900 that it is impractical to quote actual lumen outputs for each...In practical terms, the AE900 is capable of adequately illuminating screens up to 150" diagonal in a dark viewing room...We would recommend a viewing distance of 1.5 to 1.8 times the horizontal screen width...Deinterlacing of standard definition component video is good,...

Panasonic PT-AE900 projector review | T3.com
Great contrast Performs well with all video sources...Fiddly lens shift control...Its biggest strength, though, is the way it produces great-looking pictures from a variety of sources...Most projectors produce good images from HD video and DVDs, but this one also makes lower quality TV signals look exceptional...It's the best all-round HD projector you can buy in this price range and a worthy of your...

Within five minutes of watching HDTV through Panasonic's new PT-AE900U LCD projector, I was hooked...On the one hand, this projector has a surprisingly good black level...That model received generally good marks but exhibited some of the shortcomings common to LCD projection technology...

But manufacturers are competing hard to make good home theater projectors much more affordable, if not exactly cheap...But the market is changing fast, and with the competition heating up the new PT-AE900U ($3199) is designed to keep Panasonic in the hunt for offering the best projector at the lowest price...The compact PT-AE900U is a bit more stylish than the equally...

Panasonic PT-AE900 review | Expert Reviews
Panasonic's PT-AE900 may be just what you need to appreciate all this content in your own home...It produces 1,100 lumens brightness, so it's best used in a slightly darkened room...As with Epson's EMP-TW600, the PT-AE900 uses a dynamic iris that constantly adjusts the light emitted by the projector and gives an impressive 5,500:1 contrast ratio...It's hard to choose...

Panasonic PTAE900U : New Video Projectors: Ready for HD and More
